The Gifted Child, Caroline Krause Harling

Bachelors’ Theses

The idea of providing special educational facilities for children of superior intelligence is by no means a novel one. The subject has recently come to engage a large part of the attention, not only of psychologists and educationists but also of laymen. If nature really endows some children intellect­ually more generously than she does others - and the data pre­sented in this thesis will convince any fair-minded person that this is the case - the fact is of importance to those who are interested in social advancement as well as to those teachers and parents who are striving to do …

Correlation Of Art With The School Subjects Of The Upper Grades, Irene E. Cappon

Bachelors’ Theses

Art pervades every phase of life. Beauty is universal in its appeal. All children seem to delight in form and color from infancy. There seems to be a natural impulse in all to express· thoughts and feelings creatively and constructively through pencils, crayons, paints, clay, wood, and other media. All children find pleasure in seeing their efforts take visible form.

Extra-Curriculum Activities In The Junior High School, Ethel M. Fox

Bachelors’ Theses

The fundamental origin of all students' activities not covered by the curriculum is really a physical urge, round even among primitive people; namely, the element or
play. Play activities are characteristic of primitive people, especially during the adolescent period. Ceremonials and mysteries, the basic features of the lodge, are derivations of this natural urge. It is the ritual idea that helps to keep alive many secret orders, and it is this same ritual idea that makes a dynamic appeal to adolescence. Successful leadership of youth requires an intimate knowledge or the basic appeal of adolescence.

Problem-Solving In Arithmetic, Eva M. Acker

Bachelors’ Theses

For a century arithmetic has been a popular subject in the elementary schools, and has consumed more time than any other subject. The war had an effect in reducing this time on arithmetic, largely due to the war-time emphasis on health, food production, back-of-the-line morale, and kindred subjects. More recently, school activities and playground work have come in for a reasonable share of the school time. The Twenty-ninth Yearbook recognizes the child as the center of interest, and the final criterion of all values being the effect any technique of teaching or any content of instruction has on the child. …

Is High School Chemistry A Preparation For College Chemistry, Mansfield Martin

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

The subject of this study grew out of a desire to estimate the value of high school chemistry and its relation to college chemistry. The purpose is to bring about a better understanding of the necessity of a closer tie-up between different levels of our educational system. Life and growth are continuous processes, and, if education if life, we must make it a continuous experience. While limited because of incomplete records and changing classifications of our high schools, it is hoped that this study will lead to a further and more scientific study of related problems in this field.

The Exceptionally Bright Child, And Provisions Made For Him In The Classroom, Ella T. Poppe

Bachelors’ Theses

Leadership and efficiency will always be determined by the sane, the apt, the well-balanced. If this be true then the gifted ones should be so trained and given opportunity commensurate with their natural aptitudes and thus be made levers by which the whole plane of existence may be lifted to higher levels of intelligence, conduct and happiness.

The apt, the .bright, the gifted pupil is not only entitled to our consideration as his right, but because of the necessity for his leadership in the progressive movements of our civilization. The public schools are criticized for not making provisions for the …

The Teaching Of Percentage, Margaret J. O'Neil

Bachelors’ Theses

The aim in teaching arithmetic is to present it as a help for life. It is to guide the child in learning the arithmetic which he needs in his life today and which he will need when he has grown to manhood or womanhood. It should present to him, also, the activities of his life and the life about him which cannot be understood without the knowledge and use of arithmetic.

A Comparison In The Efficiency Of The Teaching Of Arithmetic In Grades Four To Eight, Inclusive, In The Standard And Non-Standard, One-Room Rural Schools Of Western Kansas, Roy Ernest Mohr

Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice

Considerable discussion regarding the effectiveness of the teaching in the one-room rural school versus the standard school has been going on for some time, and it is hoped that the results of this study will throw some light on this subject which appears to be more or less perplexing at the present time. Education has become a science and its accomplishments can be quite definitely measured by the use of standardized tests. Before their time, the task of comparing schools in educational achievement was practically impossible; with age-grade and achievement norms scientifically determined, it became a simple matter to make …
