A Comparison Of Three Training Programs In Developing Cardiovascular Fitness In Untrained Women, Carol S. Hovey

Student Work

Interval training is defined by Fox and Mathews (1974) as a series of repeated bouts of exercise alternated with periods of rest or relief. Much research has been done comparing different intensities, durations, and work-relief ratios in interval training, and how these affect the development. of the various physiological systems of the body. Little, however, has been done to compare the development of aerobic power with the duration and intensity of the work interval varied, with frequency per week held constant. Research in this area has been especially limited using untrained women as subjects. Rosentswieg and Burrhus (1975) point out …

The Title IX legislation requires educators in the next year, and for years to come, to begin a far reaching self-examination of their total program offerings. Educators should attempt tb identify any discriminatory policies or practices which may exist within their institutions and take whatever remedial actions that is necessary.

But the very richness and diversity of our heritage make it difficult for the classroom teacher or the college professor to acquire an understanding of the many groups who have contributed so much to the development of our nation.

The Relationship Between Body Fat And Physical Well-Being Of Children, Aged Six To Thirteen, As Determined By Physical Activity And Physical Fitness, Paul Sieczkowski Jul 1976

The Relationship Between Body Fat And Physical Well-Being Of Children, Aged Six To Thirteen, As Determined By Physical Activity And Physical Fitness, Paul Sieczkowski

Student Work

Body fat has several implications for an individual's physical well-being. Aside from its functional aspects as an energy reserve and as a thermal insulator, excess body fat has been related to an increased mortality rate (Dublin, 1930). Vitale (1973) and deVries (1974) emphasized that excess fat is associated with many degenerative diseases such as diabetes, gallstones, high blood pressure, and heart disease. Mayer (1953) noted that there might be seasonal changes in the body fat level due to changes in activity level. Johnson, Burke,, and Mayer (1956) traced the onset of obesity of most "late obesity" children to the winter …

The Effect Of Two Athletic Training Programs On Aerobic Capacity, Anaerobic Capacity, Reaction Time, And Percent Body Fat, Paul W. Petersen

Student Work

It is perhaps obvious that athletic teams, such as basketball and wrestling, use different conditioning pro­grams during the regular season of competition because of the nature of their sports. Although many coaches initiate particular programs and use them year after year, rarely do they have any definite measurements concerning the effects of the program on their athletes other than a win-loss record. To better understand the conditioning that takes place in various sports, in this study, several parameters of fitness were calculated-using the basketball and wrestling teams at the University of Nebraska at Omaha. The measurements will indicate the change …

The Effects Of Values-Clarification Strategies On School Attitudes In Seventh Grade English, James C. Gaffney Jun 1976

The Effects Of Values-Clarification Strategies On School Attitudes In Seventh Grade English, James C. Gaffney

Student Work

Educational systems are constantly faced with the question "What should students be taught?" Traditionally, the answer has been skills and concepts in basic subject areas used most often in life. Consequently, curricula center around facts about these subject areas, skills used by people in these areas, and concepts on which the subjects are based. New ways of presenting facts, skills, and concepts are continually being explored in the hope that students will internalize and apply them when the need arises. Student and parent involvement in the learning process, individualized instruction, high interest learning media, and various groupings of students in …

A Study Of Individualized Foreign Language Programs, Dorothy Schultz Jul 1975

A Study Of Individualized Foreign Language Programs, Dorothy Schultz

Student Work

In recent years, individualization of instruction has been considered a major innovation in the field of education. Many schools have adopted, and others are in the process of adopting, such programs. Much has been written on the subject relative to the field of foreign languages. However, there seems to b a lack of specific information concerning the implementation and the effectiveness, as perceived by teachers, of such programs. Hopefully, such information will be useful for educators who may be considering individualization of foreign language learning.
