Enrichment And Supplemental Materials In An Adequate Reading Program In Grades One Through Five, John C. Ayers
Enrichment And Supplemental Materials In An Adequate Reading Program In Grades One Through Five, John C. Ayers
Graduate Student Research Papers
It was the purpose of this study to consider materials for enrichment and supplemental purposes to strengthen the present reading program as it now exists in the Castle Rock Elementary School. The writer has found, however, that while materials do have a prominent role in reading, materials alone can not support an adequate program unless a more complete picture of the reading process is established and operating. This study will therefore concern itself with supplemental and enrichment materials as an integral part of the complete program and not necessarily as entities in themselves.

The Role Of Certain Selected Instructional Aids In Teaching Industrial Arts, Philip Gordon Bergstrom
The Role Of Certain Selected Instructional Aids In Teaching Industrial Arts, Philip Gordon Bergstrom
Graduate Student Research Papers
Much has been done since World War II to propagate and develop instructional aids for general education. Many of these have been specifically designed to fit the industrial arts areas. However, some industrial arts instructors seem unaware of the possibilities inherent in instructional aids. This paper, then, is an attempt to (1) describe and evaluate several specific teaching aids and (2) use these examples to show some possible roles of teaching aids in industrial arts.

A Unit On The Agriculture Economy In Mexico For Use In An Eighth Grade History Course To Facilitate The Teaching Of Economic Concepts, Lillian F. Hole
Graduate Student Research Papers
This study was made to aid in teaching economic concepts in an eighth grade history unit on Mexico. The economic problems in Mexico, especially in the area of agriculture, are compared to similar problems in the United States to show that, though the problems in Mexico may be similar to problems that have developed in the United States, there are factors that make it necessary to use a much different approach in solving them.
