A Proposed Course In General Science For The Portola High School, Homer Dewitt Hildebrant

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

In this thesis the author's first aim is to not forth a science course that will awaken the students of this high school to a realization of the significance end value of their environment, and thereby stimulate their interest and appreciation of things scientific. We are living in the midst of a great scientific age, and application of scientific knowledge will continue more and more to dominate our life. It is essential then that our high school boys and girls should learn how to adapt themselves to this life of scientific application, and be able to interpret their own environment …

What Are We Teaching In Biology?, C. W. Lantz

Science Bulletin

This subject in order to be of real value must be an actual study of plants and animals. I have observed in my teaching that pupils, when given recognition characters of trees, may be able to pass a satisfactory examination on these characters, but fail to recognize the trees they describe when they see them in the field. They have simply memorized words that mean nothing to them.

Stress Pertinent Facts In Health Teaching, Belva W. Swalwell

Science Bulletin

In the past, much of the health information which high school pupils acquired was handed down to them traditionally. They listened to what their elders had to say and seldom questioned the validity of it. Assertions to the effect that a buckeye carried in one's pocket would prevent rheumatism; that a piece of salt fat pork bound about the neck would counteract diphtheria; or that some malodorous substances would, if breathed, ward off certain communicable diseases were considered as truths and were passed on to the next generation. Since health is now taught in our high schools by teachers adequately …

Highway Signs In Science Teaching, Winifred Gilbert

Science Bulletin

Let me assume that the General Science teachers of the state have been well prepared for their work and that at the present time they are more or less efficient teachers. Still there is the ever present task of keeping up with the curricular and learning studies that are going on in the field of General Science. New texts are appearing, yearly, new studies on content and methods seem to be on the increase and it takes rather nimble stepping on the part of the teacher to keep pace.

A Correspondent Reminds Us . . .

Science Bulletin

A correspondent reminds us that some teachers of science leave the impression in the class that our present knowledge of science was given to the world ready made or grew out of the presses that printed the text.

Editorially Speaking

Science Bulletin

We greatly appreciate the friendly comments on the first issue of the SCIENCE BULLETIN from our readers; and we have tried to answer your questions. In these first issues we are of necessity "feeling our way in the dark". You only, friendly reader, can give us light.

Laboratory Equipment And Experiments For Determinations Of Density, L. Begeman

Science Bulletin

Laboratory experiments in Density require the following apparatus: beam balances, meter sticks, graduates, calipers, tumblers, test tubes, and hydrometers. There should be as many of each as possible· in order to reduce the amount of group work. The objects for study should include pieces of lead, zinc, marble, paraffin, beeswax, glass stoppers, shot, gasoline and solutions of salts such as blue vitriol.

Hydrostatics, L. Begeman

Science Bulletin

The teacher may introduce this subject to the class by reference to the meaning of "pressure" as used in mechanics. Explain to them that the gauge pressure in a steam boiler or auto tire refers to the number of pounds pressure on each square inch of inner surface. Sometimes a problem will make it clear.

Something From Nothing, W. H. Kadesch

Science Bulletin

Matter made while you wait-hydrogen, helium, oxygen, iron or what will you have? No, it has not quite come to this! But the time-honored law of conservation which states that matter is neither destructible nor creatable is no longer accepted as unquestionably and universally true.

Laboratory Upkeep, R. W. Getchell

Science Bulletin

Proper care of the laboratory is the phase of the high' school chemistry teacher's task most apt to be neglected. This and later articles will point out some of the " little things that make perfection."

Fall And Winter Material In Animal Husbandry, H. Earl Rath

Science Bulletin

Swine are now going to market in large numbers. This offers an excellent opportunity to study market types as represented in the herd and compare them with the sows from which they were produced. If brood sows for spring litters have not all been selected, the teacher has some valuable work for pupils in selecting the better prospects from the available groups.
