Art Appreciation As Applied To Art In Everyday Life Suitable For Ninth Year Pupils, Lottiellen Johnson Jan 1932

Art Appreciation As Applied To Art In Everyday Life Suitable For Ninth Year Pupils, Lottiellen Johnson

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The ability to see the beauty that is all around us in the world is a matter of training. We call this ability appreciation. It is an attitude of mind that brings much joy to the possessor.

Appreciation must be definitely taught if the children are to no- quire such an attitude of mind, which is not an accidental by-product of any and all art instruction, as many art teachers in the past have considered it, but is the outcome of a definite teaching method. It is possible to confine one's teaching to the presentation of facts, making the procedure …


Radio And A Public Address System For The High School, Kenneth H. Westlake Jan 1932

Radio And A Public Address System For The High School, Kenneth H. Westlake

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

All the findings and knowledge of electricity and magnetism are not new; even the Greeks as far back as 600 B. C. knew something about these forces. As time went on the facts increased.

After the experiments of Faraday, Maxwell, Hertz and such men as these, electricity and magnetism became a vital part of human life and endeavor. Within the last twenty-five years the advances in electricity have been very rapid. The action of the electric current is a vital part of many developments and is helping to make human life more enjoyable and interesting.

Almost all schools today are …


Current Induction, L. Begeman Jan 1932

Current Induction, L. Begeman

Science Bulletin

The modern transformer, now quite generally used in the commercial distribution of electrical power in the cities of the world, ranks next to the dynamo in importance in the electrical world. The transformer is an invention which embodies. the practical application of Faraday's first experiment in current induction, in which a closed iron ring carrying a primary coil and a secondary coil was used.

A Study Of Teachers Trained At The College Of The Pacific In Regard To Mental Ability, Scholarship, And Teaching Success, Emma Pearson Fentzling Jan 1932

A Study Of Teachers Trained At The College Of The Pacific In Regard To Mental Ability, Scholarship, And Teaching Success, Emma Pearson Fentzling

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The successful teacher possesses certain indispensable personal traits and professional attitudes. Are these traits and attitudes associated with high intelligence? Are high intelligence test scores predictive of success in teaching? Do successful teachers have a high degree of scholarship? What is the relation of a high college scholarship to success in teaching? Can the major professors predict success in teaching on the basis of success in college? How accurate is the critic teacher's report in predicting professional ability? Finally, what personal traits and professional attitudes are considered the most important by the principals and how are teachers rated on these? …

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Each year shows an Increased enrollment in the universities and colleges of California. The compulsory education law has served to keep more students in high school a longer time and upon graduation many of these pupils desire to attend an institution of higher learning. This fact, together with the influx of people into California from all parts of the United States and abroad to make their homes, has added materially to the numbers of prospective college students.

It has been the policy of the colleges and universities in the State of California to admit graduates from accredited high schools without …

Current Induction, L. Begeman Dec 1931

Current Induction, L. Begeman

Science Bulletin

ln the last number of the Science Bulletin [vol.4 no.3] we discussed Faraday's two experiments in current induction. It is interesting to recall at this time that September 21 of this year a centennial celebration of Faraday's discovery was held in Queen's Hall, London. Sir William Bragg, a renowned English physicist, gave the address on this occasion. This address was broadcast generally in America, being transmitted across the ocean by radio.

General Science, E. J. Cable Dec 1931

General Science, E. J. Cable

Science Bulletin

In our last article we discussed one of the common minerals found on the earth's surface. In this article the writer will attempt two things: first, to describe a few of the common rock-making minerals; and second, to discuss some of the simple ways of distinguishing the common igneous rock found on the earth's surface. The commonest igneous rock-making minerals, besides quartz, are the feldspars, the irons, pyroxene, hornblende, and the micas.


What About Organic Evolution?, C. W. Lantz Dec 1931

What About Organic Evolution?, C. W. Lantz

Science Bulletin

One of the great generalizations of science is the theory of organic evolution. It is, however, very commonly misunderstood by the average person. To many, thanks to such deluded individuals as the late Wiliiam Jennings Bryan, it is a very dangerous doctrine and any one who believes in it is an atheist and must reject the teachings of the Bible. I have had college students ask this question. Is it possible for one to believe in evolution and be a Christian? This question arises only from one who has misconceptions as to the real meaning of evolution and perhaps also …


Motivation In Physics, W. H. Kadesch Dec 1931

Motivation In Physics, W. H. Kadesch

Science Bulletin

In recent years there has been a decided trend in high schools the country over toward general science, and away from the particular sciences, physics, chemistry, biology, etc. The proponents of general science seem convinced that this is due to a better choice of subject matter in their field, and to better methods of presentation. However this may be, it will certainly be well for those of us who have to do with the teaching of the special sciences to subject our own work to critical examination. We should aim to discover our faults of whatever kind, and eliminate them.


Disillusionment!: Editorial Dec 1931

Disillusionment!: Editorial

Science Bulletin

Who has not felt his very flesh writhe and shrink on reading Hugo's fearful story of Gilliatt's fight with the octopus? The art of the great Frenchman is here superb. He compels the reader to identify himself with his hero. Gilliatt's struggles and emotions are his also. The monster projects itself upon him- its tentacles entwine him, their horrible sucking vacuum cups pull at his flesh; he strains, heaves, grasps at these accursed circling gelatinous bands; they seem to yield, but never actually; they crush, excoriate, scarify - his flesh seems to melt - he is disintegrating-it is death in …

On Snakes Swallowing Their Young, Roy L. Abbott Dec 1931

On Snakes Swallowing Their Young, Roy L. Abbott

Science Bulletin

Do snakes actually swallow their young to protect them and later spew them out again as Dr. Ball states further in his article? Well, I have never seen them do this, and I do not know of any other student of snakes who has. Ditmars, Curator of Reptiles at the New York Zoological Gardens, has never seen anything of this kind, and he daily observes more snakes than the average man does in a lifetime.

Snakes That Do Not Exist, C. W. Lantz Dec 1931

Snakes That Do Not Exist, C. W. Lantz

Science Bulletin

As a boy I was always on the lookout for two kinds of snakes which I never found. These were the so- called hoop snake, and joint snake. According to popular tradition - and the tradition is still with us - the hoop snake was supposed to take his tail into his mouth and go rolling about the country much to the amazement and horror of his human observers.
