An Evaluation Of Closed-Circuit Television As A Media In Teaching An Operation In Electronics By Use Of The Demonstration Procedure, Robert Horning Jul 1964

An Evaluation Of Closed-Circuit Television As A Media In Teaching An Operation In Electronics By Use Of The Demonstration Procedure, Robert Horning

Electronic Theses & Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to compare the relative effectiveness of a conventional face-to-face demonstration with a closed-circuit televised demonstration on trouble-shooting with the Simpson Volt-Ohm-Meter. Special emphasis was placed on problems the ordinary shop instructor would have in presenting a demonstration by television. Data for the experimental comparison of the conventional demonstration with the televised demonstration were obtained by the parallel group technique. Two groups, experimental and control, composed of graduate students in the field of industrial education were used in the experiment. Subjects of both groups were compared on the characteristics of age, position, and overall grade …


Order Of Presenting Orthographic Projection And Isometric Projection And Its Effect On Achievement In Mechanical Drawing, E. Horton Bolin Jul 1964

Order Of Presenting Orthographic Projection And Isometric Projection And Its Effect On Achievement In Mechanical Drawing, E. Horton Bolin

Electronic Theses & Dissertations

The purpose of this problem was to compare two orders of presentation in the Mechanical Drawing One classes of Turner High School, Kansas City, Kansas, in order to determine the relative effectiveness or superiority of each. More specifically, was it more effective to teach orthographic projection first, followed by isometric projection; or was it a better practice to teach isometric projection first, followed by orthographic projection? The aim of this study was to ascertain the effect on achievement in mechanical drawing resulting from these two methods of procedure. Data for the study were obtained by experimentation and observation of four …
