How The Younger Generation Is Being Corrupted, Henry Winthrop

Perspectives (1969-1979)

A brief synopsis of this cesspool of corruption; and so doing, I can serve in a small way to help the undergraduate to steer clear of the baneful intellectual and cultural influences to which he may be subjected during his four years at college.

A Summary Of A Survey Of Science Taught In Hampton Elementary Schools, Kenneth E. Moeller

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

In 1957 the Russians put an artificial satellite into orbit. Since that time science education in the United States has been experiencing a steady change. This change has not only been in course name and content but also in new methods of science teaching. The role of the science teacher is most important in the teaching of the new science materials. The instructor must be able to guide and direct the activities of the students, not just spew forth information. Often in the past, the instructor has taught as he had been taught. Most courses now are developed along these …

The Development Of The Juvenile Instructor Under George Q. Cannon And Its Functions In Latter-Day Saint Religious Education, Lawrence R. Flake

Theses and Dissertations

The success of the Juvenile Instructor magazine, called the Instructor since 1929, owes much to the vision and foresight of its great founder, George Quale Cannon. From a small, crude, four-page paper, first published in 1866, the Juvenile Instructor has developed into a far-reaching and attractive publication, touching the lives of countless thousands in 1969. It has proved to be a great implement of religious education to the Latter-day Saint people and fulfilled four important functions in its early years when Elder Cannon was its editor. It served as the official organ of the Sunday Schools, as a voice of …

THE ISSUE

The Plan for Colby
Characterized by an ingenuity deserving of the name 'Yankee,' the $6.7 million capital funds campaign proposes sensible (and cost-saving) solutions to rather intricate problems, by making the best use of available space and walls with a minimum of new construction.

Benjamin Butler as Overachiever
Lincoln's first choice for vice-president in 1864 was this controversial general and politician, but Butler told the emissaries that he would not 'quit the field… even with himself as President, unless he will give me bond with sureties, in the full amount of four years' salary, that he will die …

The Misuse Of Animals In The Science Classroom, Richard K. Morris

Education Collection

At The HSUS Conference held in Washington in 1961, Dr. James T. Mehorter of the University of Vermont declared " ... our historic failure in humane education revolves about two points: (a) a philosophy, and (b) a psychology." Seven years later, as moderator of a panel discussion on humane education, I pointed out that there was a need for research leading to a defensible philosophy of humane education and research into the psychological effects on young people of violence on television, gun clubs in the schools, and of elementary and secondary school experiments on living animals. This "historic failure" is …

Humane Education Programs For Youth (Panel Discussion), Virgil S. Hollis, Sherwood Norman, Jean Mcclure Kelty

Education Collection

Part I - Dr. Virgil S. Hollis

Developing the number of school administrators who are increasingly becoming interested in humaneness and the humane society members who are interested in education, I think, means that all of us must keep close touch with each other although we know very little of each other's field. This exposure to you and your programs in meetings such as this will surely result in a united attack on a mutual problem We need your help. And you need our help. You need help from the group that I represent in education because the many programs …

The Idea Of General Education, Knox C. Hill

Perspectives (1969-1979)

Ideas of general education and how to sift through the confusion and important agreement that it matters.

General Education: An Essay In Definition*, Edward B. Blackman

Perspectives (1969-1979)

Thus by indirection we have arrived at a kind of definition of general or liberal education:²⁵ indispensable knowledge, regardless of one's specialty, of the natural sciences, the social sciences, and the humanities; the cumulative and the non-cumulative; the rational, the emotional, the spiritual, the mystical; fidelity and art; the real and the fanciful; the solemn and the sportive; self-discipline and the anarchic-the whole great range of human knowledge and feeling and character and action in the broadest horizons above and in the narrowest of crevices below, not mastered to be sure, but richly sampled.

An Environment For Environmental Studies, John Freund

Perspectives (1969-1979)

If we think of a liberal education as one which seeks to provide human beings with a means for realizing their humanity, we must recognize immediately that our educational institutions are completely out of it. It is not just that they aren't doing the job. They are in another ball park, playing a duller-and dirtier-game.

One of the rules of the game they are playing is that everyone must pretend that whatever is going on constitutes a liberal education. This doesn't really fool very many people, but it introduces so many irrelevancies into any discussion of the matter that coming …

Relationship Of Weather Phenomena And Disruptive Behavior In Special Education Classrooms, Carol Bartlett Ryno

All Master's Theses

If a clear-cut relationship between weather phenomena and human behavior could be established, the case for controlled atmosphere in industry, commerce, and education would be strengthened. In the area of education, classroom procedures and learning tasks could be varied in accordance with the weather. This dimension could provide for insights into misbehavior and might enable school personnel to deal with such misbehavior more effectively.

The purpose of the present investigation was to gather information pertaining to the relationship of various weather phenomena and disruptive behavior in the classroom. It was intended that the present study differ from that reported by …

John Donne : English Master Of Gongorism, Dorothy Gayle Hightower

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The title of this thesis, JOHN DONNE: ENGLISH MASTER OF GONGORISM, may seem perplexing to some, presumptuous to others. However, the purpose of this thesis will be to present evidence, through a textual study of the poetic style of both John Donne (1572-1631) and Don Luis de Göngora (1561-1627), which will verify the assumption that Donne was poetically influenced by Góngora.
