Chemistry Graduates

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

The 1970 class of graduating chemists received the smallest increase in starting salaries in eighteen years, according to an American Chemical Society survey reported in the current issue of Chemical and Engineering News. The salaries reported averaged only 1.6 per cent higher than last year, said David A. H. Roethel who compiled the information.

A Link Between Vertebrates And Invertebrates Found?

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

What may be a missing link between vertebrate and invertebrate animals has been found, according to a Michigan State University geologist. "The animal, Lochriea wellsensis, fills the gap between vertebrate and invertebrate animals which has existed since man began to classify animals," said Dr. Harold W. Scott, chairman of the MSU geology department.

Seen Any Orange-Tailed Bald Eagles?

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

A Canadian group that's running a study of bald eagles for about three years has color-marked the tails of sixteen nestling eagles near Lac Tonge, Saskatchewan-painted the tails orange, both top and bottom and asks for reports on any such birds sighted in the United States during the winter.

Nonsense In The Classroom*, Richard R. Williams

Perspectives (1969-1979)

What is required is not so much a reformation as a revolution, and the arena for struggle is one's own consciousness. To discover how one's particular discipline is related to the mystical vision is not an ephemeral luxury, it is a project of greatest importance ... for those who have eyes and can see; and for those who have ears and can hear.

Hegel And The Rebellion And Counter-Rebellion Of Youth, Rudolf J. Siebert

Perspectives (1969-1979)

Can the philosopher and educator Hegel help American youth overcome romantic subjectivity and liberate itself toward a rational and free existence? Can he help them in the dramatic social development from civil society to the real non-repressive supra-national or even continental state? To lead Hegel and American youth into a new and honest encounter would be very worthwhile and necessary, but difficult. This new encounter would presuppose the success of an even more difficult task. This would be to let American youth take root in that healthy confidence, which Hegel characterized as threefold: 1) confidence is science, 2) faith in …

Vertebrate Comparative Anatomy In Undergraduate Curricula 1969-70, Karl E. Goellner

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

In 1966 I presented a short paper describing some impressions of the status of vertebrate comparative anatomy (and embryology) in European universities (Goellner, 1968). Discussions which followed seemed to suggest that the status of these courses in the United States may be changing, and that a survey might elicit information on this matter. A basic assumption was implied, namely, that comparative anatomy had, indeed, been a traditional course in college offerings, particularly for zoology majors and for pre-medical and pre-dental students. This paper presents results of a modest survey conducted during the winter of 1969-70.

A Library Course Of Study - Investigation Outline, Mary Hantelman

Graduate Research Papers

I examined several course of study guides, textbooks, periodicals, and books on library curriculum as part of an investigation to determine what library skills were taught at each level. For each area I included the type or information found and then added my own conclusions for that section.

Following this, in outline form, is the library instructional program, 1 - 9, for the Oelwein Community Schools. The high school program is given in greater detail because I felt the outline form would not explain to the reader the rationale behind it. A.s a part. of the library program on the …

Environmental Education In The Environment, Michael J. Naylon

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

Man, the thinking animal, is an observer of events in the universe. He has conceded the obvious truth of his uniqueness on this planet and his religions charge him with its stewardship. However, the very quality which distinguishes him from other life forms has also proven to be his greatest weakness. Perception is a personal experience; its very nature mandates that it be point-centered in the universe. That point is the individual. Collective man is guilty of assuming that the universe "happens" around him. He has not effectively perceived that he is a happening in the universe. He has compounded …

The Acs-Nsta Cooperative High School Chemistry Examinations, Albert J. Judge, Charles W. Hendrickson

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

Teachers of chemistry have available an evaluative tool used extensively throughout the nation to measure the end-of-year achievement of high school chemistry students. This instrument is the ACS-NSTA Cooperative High School Chemistry Examination. The National High School Testing Program under the direction of Professor Theodore A. Ashford has made available to high school teachers a series of widely used ACS-NSTA Cooperative Chemistry Examinations. It is estimated that over a million and a half high school students have been tested since the first ACS-NSTA High School Chemistry Examination appeared in the late 1950s.

Teaching Teaching, D. J. Moffatt, A. W. Jacobs, W. K. Metcalf

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

The role of a modern Anatomy department is threefold (Metcalf, 1970): 1. To teach anatomy and its sub-disciplines, gross anatomy, neuroanatomy, microscopic anatomy and embryology, to people who wish to learn it. 2. To advance the science of anatomy-the structural basis of function. 3. To train graduate students for a future role as anatomy faculty.

Getting With Spaceship Earth, Noel Mcinnis

Perspectives (1969-1979)

The environment into which we are born remains invisible to us unless one of two things happens: 1) we leave it, or 2) it changes drastically. Quite recently, both of these things have happened to man-on-earth. Man left the earth long enough to look it over, and brought back pictures which make it difficult for us to overlook the planet as formerly. And those of us who stayed on earth discovered our planet by virtue of the fact that its feedback is doing things to us which were entirely unintended in our doings to it. The coincidence of these events …
