Testing An Earth-Science Aid, Florence Black Jan 1967

Testing An Earth-Science Aid, Florence Black

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

Making a collection is not always considered an erudite use of laboratory time. It has been said that study of rocks, for example, entails a good deal more than discovering that a specific specimen can be assigned a specific name. This is freely admitted to be true, but this writer has discovered that assigning the proper name to a specimen demands a more careful and memorable examination of discriminating details of rock types, for example, and that it leads to a useful familiarity with variations of a single rock type.

Some Trends In College Physics And Their Reflections On High School Physics, J. E. Kasper, L. D. Flansburg

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

We are much struck with the desirable results that follow from introducing brief discussions of modern physics topics during the course of ordinary, relatively routine first courses in physics for college freshmen and sophomores. We propose in this paper that teachers of secondary physics courses might well also consider the incorporation of such discussions into their courses.
