Piaget And Science Teaching, Frederick P. De Luca

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

Piaget's life is as interesting as his theory of intellectual development He was born in France in 1896, published his first article at the age of 11, completed his Ph.D. degree in biology at the age of 21, and subsequently devoted his efforts to study, research and teaching in the psychology of intellectual development. Initially he was interested in exploring the idea that intellectual development resulted from adaptation of the individual to his environment, a concept involving a combination of biology and psychology. As his research progressed, however, he found it necessary to incorporate ideas from the disciplines of formal …

A Unique Elementary Science Teacher Education Program, S. Cecilia Kuennen

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

Within the past decade exciting new science programs have become available and have been introduced into the elementary schools. At the same time important changes are taking place in pre-service science education programs on the college level to ensure long-range success in the use of these new curricula. Briar Cliff College, Sioux City, Iowa, has successfully implemented an innovative pilot program which may well be adopted by other teacher education centers throughout the country. The strength of the program lies in the cooperative effort between the college and the elementary school system.

Anonymous Advertiser Boosts Sun Power

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

A challenge to use solar energy was thrown in front of readers of the Wall Street Journal recently. The medium was a full-page advertisement costing $9,000 in which the buyer expressed his confidence in American ingenuity which would free all mankind from energy deficits and make the innovator wealthy as well.

Student Programs In Retrospect, Brian J. Awbrey

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

Science may often be considered a discipline of absolutes and systematized knowledge, but science education in Iowa need not be so. To the young and enthusiastic Iowa student scientist there are a number of educational opportunities available that are exciting and relevant, as well as several which take place outside of the classroom. These extracurricular opportunities are designed to allow the secondary science student to realize a few of his educational aspirations while interacting directly with other professionals and student scientists from the state. Since I have been involved personally with some of the unique Iowa science educational opportunities as …

Fate Of The World Rests On Science Teachers: Asimov, Virginia L. Dobson, George Hamilton

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

Dr. Isaac Asimov, biochemist, science writer, and former teacher, gave the Fellows Address at the 78th Science Teachers Association of New York State Conference last year. In his presentation he defined science as an attempt to understand the rules that govern the universe, an attempt that was of no practical purpose before the 18th century. The following excerpts were reported by Virginia L. Dobson and George Hamilton, Texas A & M University, College Station, Texas.

School Tours At The Des Moines Center Of Science And Industry, Linda Garten

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

As every teacher knows, some of the best learning experiences take place outside the classroom. This may be especially true when you take your class on a field trip to the Des Moines Center of Science and Industry, where a program has been planned especially for school groups. Science Center school tours provide a motivational experience which stimulates interest in science and technology through participation.

Women In Science - Bibliography Offer, Walter S. Smith

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

Most high level science careers are not pursued by women in any large proportion. Women comprise less than ten percent of American physicians, engineers, geologists, chemists, physicists, dentists, and veterinarians. On the other hand, women are over-represented in such science-related careers as nursing, dental hygiene, medical technology, physical and occupational therapy, and dietetics. Men encounter personal barriers or social pressures which make difficult their entry into "women's work." Likewise, women cannot easily pursue "men's careers." The result includes society's cheating itself by its under-utilization of science talents and the individual's having a reduced range of choices which could lead to …

A Report From Nsta Director For District Viii, Edward P. Ortleb

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

As the newly elected director of District VIII of the National Science Teachers Association, I had the oppo1tunity to attend the board meeting in Colorado Springs this summer. It was a real pleasure to work with the most capable staff and officers of NST A. Our district can be very proud of its representation for the past two years in the person of David L. Fagel from Marshalltown, Iowa. Dave did an outstanding job and is very much respected for his leadership. I hope that I may as ably serve District VIII.

Weather Balloons: An Interdisciplinary Unit, Eugene Brady

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

"When can we let them go?" "How far do you think they will go?" "I hope someone finds mine." These were typical comments from the 140 Perry second grade students who culminated their study of air with the release of 140 balloons. The idea for such an activity was an outgrowth of an assignment in the second grade reader. One of the second grade teachers suggested this project could be readily adapted to the second grade science program. The other second grade teachers began to make suggestions on how science, language arts, geography and reading could be incorporated into the …
