An Individualized Reading Program In The Elementary Classroom, Janet Langerveld

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

Not long ago after reading many articles dealing with an individualized approach to reading, the writer was challenged to attempt this "new method" with a selected group of students. These children were to be given an opportunity to select their own materials for their instruction and to participate in individual conferences with the teach er. This paper is a brief account of the writer's experience.

Developing Creativity In Reading, Myrtie M. Barnhardt Oct 1963

Developing Creativity In Reading, Myrtie M. Barnhardt

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

Have you ever heard a teacher make the remark, "I just can't teach my children to be creative?" It makes one wonder just what that teacher means by "being creative." Is creativity taught in a certain pattern step by step? Applegate in her book, Helping Children Write, says, "Creativity cannot be taught. It can only be released and guided by a competent teacher." (1) It is often difficult for children to reveal what is on the inside, for they have been disappointed by adults too often when they have exposed their feelings to them. One of the important facts that …

Some time ago a professor in the field of guidance called me in regard to his little boy, who had a reading problem. After inquiring cautiously as to my qualifications and background, he asked, "What measurable degree of progress will you guarantee in six weeks?"

Reading In The Ungraded School, Gordon F. Evans Jul 1963

Reading In The Ungraded School, Gordon F. Evans

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

Let us take a look with Goodlad and Anderson (4) at a typical classroom of two or three decades ago. The students were seated by unwritten law—the first graders by the windows, the eighth graders on the other side of the room by the blackboard, and the rest in between according to grade. Our attention is drawn at once to a seat near the window where Ernie is trying to fit himself into a much-too-small seat, long -lanky legs, of necessity, in the aisle. The pale face under the shock of carrot-red hair makes Ernie look as though he might …

The Past And Future Of The Psycho-Educational Clinic At Western Michigan University, Homer L.J. Carter Jul 1963

The Past And Future Of The Psycho-Educational Clinic At Western Michigan University, Homer L.J. Carter

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

The scientific movement in education was well under way when Witmer established the Psychological Clinic at the University of Pennsylvania and began his work with children showing evidence of educational maladjustment. It is fortunate for mankind that Witmer had the versatility to set aside his laboratory experimentation in order to help a classroom teacher overcome a spelling difficulty of one of her pupils. The scientific movement in education had produced the first Psycho-Educational Clinic. New concepts were introduced into the theory and practice of education. These were precise observation, accurate description, and tested generalizations. These additions made educational changes possible …

The Teaching Of Succession Through The Use Of Pond Infusion Cultures, James E. Cole Jul 1963

The Teaching Of Succession Through The Use Of Pond Infusion Cultures, James E. Cole

Masters Theses

Chapter I

Introduction

The approach to teaching biology for general education is significant. In a course of this nature, the learning of biological principles should be of primary concern. It is hoped that such principles then will lend themselves to the understanding and use of the scientific approach to everyday happenings. To do this, however, requires that the teacher use the inductive method for developing an understanding of the principles, and the deductive method for applying them.

Planners of these basic biology courses attempt to define areas of real concern and interest to students. Having defined these areas, the planners …


A Study Of Time Management – By A Selected Group Of Employed Homemakers, Patricia M. Skrocki Jul 1963

A Study Of Time Management – By A Selected Group Of Employed Homemakers, Patricia M. Skrocki

Masters Theses

Chapter I

The Problem and Definition of Terms Used

During recent years there has been a steady increase in the number of homemakers employed full-time outside their homes. When a homemaker resumes dual responsibilities she is faced with an increased need to manage her time well in order to meet the family needs as mother, wife, and homemaker plus meeting the employers expectations of an employee. There has been much speculation concerning time management by these employed homemakers, but there was very little available research on this areas of management.

The Problem

Statement of the Problem. The purpose of this …
