The Importance Of Play, Laura V. Douglas

Education Student Dissertations

While reading the "Principles of Educational Sociology" by Walter Robinson Smith, the writer was deeply impressed by the statement that "Next to the family group and home life, the play group and play life exert the most vital influence upon the unfolding personality of the child." The writer wondered if it was the absence of play life, as American born children of fair social background experience it, that would in some measure explain the dullness of the Italian-American child of Sicilian and Neapolitan origin, who, as the writer knew him, was so lovable, so anxious and eager to please and …

Adapting Instruction To The Needs Of A First Grade, Genevieve Y. Younge

Bachelors’ Theses

Fortunately for the young child as well as for society we have evidences of the growing appreciation of the educational possibilities of early childhood. This is manifested in the opportunities provided by universities for the training of teachers of childhood. Teachers College, John Hopkins, Yale, Harvard and the universities of Iowa and Columbia offer research courses in this particular study.

In 1905 a conscious attempt was made to work out a technique of teaching built upon a new conception of the teacher as a guide rather than as a dictator, but few were interested, so the attempt was not revived …

Supervised Study, Alice L. Priestley

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This thesis, submitted to Xavier University in 1929, examines supervised study as an instructional method and argues for its superiority over traditional recitation-based teaching. Priestley traces the historical development of the teaching function through three stages, from the teacher as disciplinarian, through an emphasis on psychologizing instruction, to the contemporary movement toward directing and supervising pupils' independent learning activities.

The thesis reviews a series of experimental studies comparing supervised study to conventional recitation and home study methods, including investigations by Reavis, Richard, Hill-Quest, Breslich, Minnich, and Brown and Worthington, conducted across subjects including algebra, plane geometry, arithmetic, and poetry at …

Organization And Curriculum For Mentally Retarded Children, Alice M. Olwell

Bachelors’ Theses

The mentally retarded or exceptional child is one of the most puzzling personalities met with in our schools. He stands near the dividing line between normalcy and feeblemindedness, and his future happiness or tragic discouragement, and often ruin, depends upon the attitude of the school and the teachers towards his shortcomings during his childhood and adolescence. He may be trained to healthy competition in the field of labor with his normal brother, or he may reach adulthood an utter incompetent, a potential criminal, a moral degenerate, an unfortunate ne'er-do-well.

Typical Methods Of Learning, Esther Zemke

Bachelors’ Theses

In discussing methods of learning at all, it may be well to define the word method. What is meant when one speaks of method? One dictionary definition is a mode of procedure, a manner, or way as a method of teaching. Dewey defines it in this way, "Method means that arrangement of subject matter which makes it most effective for use." If this definition is used, a relationship between method and subject matter must be conceded, the one cannot be isolated from the other although the attempt is still being made in many schools of today. Some of the dangers …
