A Comparison Of The Iowa Tests Of Educational Development With Student Achievement As Predictors Of Future Student Success In Mathematics, William Henry Patrick Aug 1969

A Comparison Of The Iowa Tests Of Educational Development With Student Achievement As Predictors Of Future Student Success In Mathematics, William Henry Patrick

All Master's Theses

It was the purpose of this study (1) to compare ninth grade algebra grades with grades achieved in future mathematics courses; (2) to compare scores achieved on the ITED with grades achieved in future mathematics courses; and (J) to determine whether the ITED or past student achievement was the better predictor of future student success in mathematics.

A Comparative Investigation Of The Effects Of Precision Of Response In Two Ninth Grade Algebra Classes, James Henry Krack Aug 1969

A Comparative Investigation Of The Effects Of Precision Of Response In Two Ninth Grade Algebra Classes, James Henry Krack

All Master's Theses

One of the areas of concern in mathematics education is that of communication of ideas and procedures. Since language plays the key role in the communication process, it is of value to examine its effect in the mathematics learning situation. The particular topic discussed in this paper concerned itself with various levels of precision in language usage in the mathematics classroom.


A Comparison Of The Mathematical Achievement Attained Using Two Methods Of Teaching First Year Algebra To Alaskan Native High School Students, Jerry E. Burgett Jul 1969

A Comparison Of The Mathematical Achievement Attained Using Two Methods Of Teaching First Year Algebra To Alaskan Native High School Students, Jerry E. Burgett

All Master's Theses

The major purpose of the study was to compare two different methods of teaching first year algebra to Alaskan Native high school students. The basis for comparison was their effect on mathematical achievement.


An Experimental Study Of Two Methods Of Teaching Mathematics In Second Grade, Nina Aldridge Thomas Jun 1969

An Experimental Study Of Two Methods Of Teaching Mathematics In Second Grade, Nina Aldridge Thomas

All Master's Theses

It was the purpose of this study to compare two methods of teaching arithmetic in the second grade, an individualized method and a one group method, to determine if there were any differences in the achievement made by the two groups.


An Experiment In Improving The Attitude And Achievement Of Students In Mathematics By Using Behavioral Objectives, Joseph Bruce Fleming Apr 1969

An Experiment In Improving The Attitude And Achievement Of Students In Mathematics By Using Behavioral Objectives, Joseph Bruce Fleming

All Master's Theses

The purpose of this study was to test whether behaviorally stated objectives would effect a change of attitude toward mathematics while improving students' achievement in mathematics. The investigation was conducted by means of a comparison of an experimental group that received individually written behavioral objectives in mathematics and a control group.
