The Limits Of The Scientist's Responsibility To Communicate With Laymen, James M. Lufkin
The Limits Of The Scientist's Responsibility To Communicate With Laymen, James M. Lufkin
Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science
The scientist's responsibility to communicate with the layman is limited first by the layman's ability to understand him, and second by the layman's "need to know." These are very real limits, and in fairness, they should always be considered carefully in any assessment of the scientist's social responsibility.

Who Has The Best Method For Beginning Readers?, C. Hap Gilliland
Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts
Who has the best reading methods? As we watch children learning to read in other parts of the world, it makes us wonder! In South America they are taking primitive Indians who have never before seen a book and in two to three years they are reading well enough to read the Bible. In New Guinea, primitive people who have been head hunters can learn a new language and learn to read it in a year. In London four-year-olds are learning to read.

Fostering A Healthy Self Image In The Young Child, Carolyn Houdek
Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts
How do we learn? Modern psychologists have discovered that the self concept or image we hold is so important that it conditions nearly everything we say and do. The self concept or self image acts very much like a quota for an individual. What a person believes about himself establishes limits as to what he can and will do. It is the writer's purpose to examine briefly the nature of the self image and those experiences which make decisive contributions to its development.

"Intensive Phonics vs. Gradual Phonics in Beginning Reading: A Review" which appeared in the April 1965 issue of The Journal of Educational Research? This review presents 22 comparisons between intensive phonics instruction and gradual phonics instruction. It differs from standard reviews in two respects. First, it restricts itself to comparisons meeting certain rigorous statistical criteria and gives specific reasons for excluding various less rigorous studies. Second, instead of quoting the conclusions of various investigators, it tabulates their findings in terms of significant differences. The reviewers found that 19 comparisons favored intensive phonics, three favored neither method, and none favored gradual …

Science programs designed for junior high school are usually based upon the assumption that this level includes grades 7, 8 and 9 - although, of course other types of groupings have been explored. We must also recognize the assumption that junior high school science is neither the first nor the last exposure of students to science.
