Integrating Selected Principles Of Evolution Into The High School Curriculum, Judy Kareen Lyons
Integrating Selected Principles Of Evolution Into The High School Curriculum, Judy Kareen Lyons
Graduate Student Research Papers
The purposes of this paper will be (1) to present selected biological principles pertaining to evolution, (2) to indicate curricular areas in the high school into which general aspects of evolution might be integrated, and (3) to denote specific phases of biology especially suited for teaching particular principles.
A Proposed Curricula Time Schedule Appliance To Eighth Grade Modern Mathematics, James Parker Eastham
A Proposed Curricula Time Schedule Appliance To Eighth Grade Modern Mathematics, James Parker Eastham
Graduate Student Research Papers
The purpose of this study was to examine several possible curricula time schedules in light of the objectives of eighth grade modern mathematics, and to develop a schedule best suited to meet these objectives. It was further postulated that a flexible schedule would: 1. allow time for completion of materials by students with average and above capabilities. 2. allow for student individual differences. 3. allow most effective use of staff.
A Critical Review Of Current Literature On Modern Arithmetic, Hugh Fotheringill
A Critical Review Of Current Literature On Modern Arithmetic, Hugh Fotheringill
Graduate Student Research Papers
It was the purpose of this study (1) to review current literature regarding new trends and programs in elementary mathematics; (2) to investigate the need for the adoption of a new mathematics program in the elementary schools; (3) and investigate the need for the retraining of elementary teachers in the new mathematics.
A Study Of Science Concepts For Upper Elementary Grades, Floyd Edwin Bond
A Study Of Science Concepts For Upper Elementary Grades, Floyd Edwin Bond
Graduate Student Research Papers
The purpose of this study was to itemize the topics and concepts prepared for the Highline School District by selected teachers, and to identify those aspects which were to be found in each of five textbook series.
The five areas of study were: (1) The Earth, (2) Living Things, (3) The Universe, (4) Matter and Energy, and (5) Health.
The textbook series used were: (1) The John C. Winston Company, (2) The L. W. Singer Company, (3) The D. C. Heath Company, (4) The Macmillan Company, and (5) The Scott Foresman Company.
An Investigation Of A Junior High School Mathematics Laboratory Through Team Teaching Procedures, Lloyd Don Stacy
An Investigation Of A Junior High School Mathematics Laboratory Through Team Teaching Procedures, Lloyd Don Stacy
Graduate Student Research Papers
The purpose of this study was to plan the initial developments of a junior high school mathematics laboratory. The developments include the implementation of team teaching procedures involving a demonstration unit establishing a modern mathematics approach to the teaching of geometry.
Enrichment Activities And Materials For The Intermediate Grades' Arithmetic Program, Paul R. Trammell
Enrichment Activities And Materials For The Intermediate Grades' Arithmetic Program, Paul R. Trammell
Graduate Student Research Papers
What are some worthwhile enrichment activities and materials for the intermediate grades' arithmetic program?
An Overview Of Mechanism And Function Of Respiration In The Human Organism, James Morley Freese
An Overview Of Mechanism And Function Of Respiration In The Human Organism, James Morley Freese
Graduate Student Research Papers
The purpose of this paper was to take a seemingly simple concept of zoology, reveal in some measure its complexity, and show how this concept is often inadequately expressed and taught.
The Importance Of Teaching About Beneficial Insects In Secondary Science Instruction, Larry Ralph Whitney
The Importance Of Teaching About Beneficial Insects In Secondary Science Instruction, Larry Ralph Whitney
Graduate Student Research Papers
This paper will attempt to determine the value of placing more emphasis in secondary science instruction on beneficial insects. Is this somewhat neglected area of knowledge important enough to have a significant place in an already full curriculum?
The Position Of Solid Geometry In The Mathematics Program, David A. Fitzgerald
The Position Of Solid Geometry In The Mathematics Program, David A. Fitzgerald
Graduate Student Research Papers
Curricular change is a dynamic process. It does not lend itself -well to a snapshot illustration, but rather to the continuity of a moving picture. Such a picture is to be presented in this paper. As new programs evolve, certain weaknesses develop. This paper proposes to point out possible danger areas existent in the recent teaching of solid geometry.
