Improving Spelling Performance Of Sixth Grade Students Using Eclectic Spelling Strategies And A Cognitive-Based Approach, Marilyn L. Frieling
Abraham S. Fischler College of Education ETD Archive
The poor spelling performance of a group of sixth graders was addressed by utilizing the Informal Spelling Inventory suggested by Mann and Suiter (1974). This criterion – referenced test determined that nine members of the sixth grade class scored well below grade level expectations in spelling. A cognitive – based approach and eclectic spelling strategies were implemented with the target group in order to improve their spelling achievement. The results indicated a cognitive-based approach through phonetic instruction and rule generalizations increased levels of achievement in the target group. Students within the group demonstrated positive attitudinal changes. Purposeful writing became one …

Karl M Lorenz
A reforma educacional de 1855 proposto pelo Ministro Couto Ferraz marcadamente alterou o programam de ensino do Colégio de Pedro II, a instituição modelo do Império, por dividir-nos em dois ciclos: os Estudos de Primeira Classe e os estudos de Segundo Classe. O primeiro ciclo, de quatro anos, foi dirigido aos alunos que queriam terminar seus estudos e receber um certificado de conclusão que lhes daria o direito de ingressar em um dos institutos de formação técnica, sem prestar novos exames. Os alunos que continuassem o segundo ciclo, com duração de três anos, receberiam ao final do sétimo ano o …
Research For Existential Choice, Karen A. Hamblen
Research For Existential Choice, Karen A. Hamblen
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
Chet Bowers (1984) has developed a theory of how a critical consciousness of our cultural typifications can be developed through an in-depth and elaborated understanding of aspects of a given situation or problem. In this paper, his theory is applied to the role research plays in art education. It is proposed that our existential choices in art education are directly proportionate to the amount and complexity of the research we have available and the extent to which we understand and can apply this research for specific purposes. The lack of research in essential instructional areas as well as the lack …
