The Nature Of Method, Emma H. Mater

Bachelors’ Theses

The child, the learner, as the center of interest around which the materials of development group themselves, is a primary concept of the new school. Experience, is the keynote. According to Rugg & Shumaker (1), the aims of the new education are two-fold, maximum growth in creative self-expression on one hand, and tolerant understanding of self and of society on the other. Freedom, pupil initiative, the active school, with the essential element of child interest, are the articles of faith of the new educational program. Experience, the complete integrated life of the individual, must go on in a thoroughly integrated …

Is The Trend From Oral To Silent Reading Wise?, Mary S. Mcgrath

Bachelors’ Theses

Reading In recent years has produced a problem, a problem that Is decidedly baffling to the educator since two claimants demand public recognition to the major portion of the reading program.

Phonics A General Survey Of The Subject, Mary Rosalie

Bachelors’ Theses

"Phonics is a term usually applied to the study of sounds as they are related to reading." Its aim is to give the child power in the independent recognition of words, therefore, a knowledge of the use of phonics has always been considered a necessary part of the primary teacher's equipment, and probably no question has been more widely asked in the field of primary reading, than, "How and when shall phonics be taught?"

Supervised Study, Alice L. Priestley

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This thesis, submitted to Xavier University in 1929, examines supervised study as an instructional method and argues for its superiority over traditional recitation-based teaching. Priestley traces the historical development of the teaching function through three stages, from the teacher as disciplinarian, through an emphasis on psychologizing instruction, to the contemporary movement toward directing and supervising pupils' independent learning activities.

The thesis reviews a series of experimental studies comparing supervised study to conventional recitation and home study methods, including investigations by Reavis, Richard, Hill-Quest, Breslich, Minnich, and Brown and Worthington, conducted across subjects including algebra, plane geometry, arithmetic, and poetry at …

Cooperation Between The Home And The School In The Matter Of Hygiene Of Children, Theodore C. Klett

Bachelors’ Theses

In attempting to improve the health habits of the child, little can be accomplished without the interest and cooperation of the home, in which the habits will be practiced. The establishment of an intimate understanding between the school and home goes far towards producing the desired results; and, again, while we may be making. progress by the mere preaching of the gospel of hygiene to the child, the child cannot reform his own ways and revolutionize family traditions without the cooperation of the parents. Important from every point ·of view has been the taking of the parents into the confidence …

Safety Education In The Elementary School, Julia Alice Sheehan

Bachelors’ Theses

In modern civilization we find numerous and varied hazards, without a sufficient knowledge to combat the startling increase of accidents caused by these hazards. In the United States six per cent to the deaths are due to carelessness. The number of American soldiers, who made the supreme sacrifice in Europe during the nineteen months that our country was in the World War, was 77,118. Statistics of the United States Census Bureau show, in the death registration area of the United States during the twelve months of the year 1920, the number of violent deaths, exclusive of suicide, was 68,697. According …

The Nervous Child, Miriam Wolfson

Bachelors’ Theses

Nervousness is not, as it is commonly thought, a disease of the nerves from the physical point of view. It is rather a functional disorder affecting the patient as a whole, especially mentally. Nervousness may be described as an excessive activity of the nervous system, resulting in a peculiar type of response to the ordinary stimuli of life and showing itself in such symptoms as over activity, temper, irritability or restlessness.

Education Through Recreation, Marjory C. Wolf

Bachelors’ Theses

"All work and no play will make Jack a dull boy." Educators throughout the world to-day are beginning to realize the significance of said words. Shorter working hours, and the demand for mechanical power and devices, is increasing leisure very rapidly. It is just as necessary to prepare for the leisure time of life as it is for the work time of life, and what the great mass of people will do during their leisure time is the problem we are concerned with. When not at work one must choose between play and idleness - and Carlyle says, "Nine-tenths of …

The Project Method In Education, Ralph O. Paff

Bachelors’ Theses

Hence our problem is to determine what the desirable things are that children may do, what means we may use to develop and teach these things, and by what standards we may judge the efficiency of our teaching. Much of the subject matter and many of the habits formed in our schools do not conform to desirable social life outside of school. For instance, we tell children not to receive help from or give help to anyone in an examination or test. To do so is unfair. Yet we ask children to be mutually helpful, to assist the needy, and …

Health Work In The Elementary And Grammar Grades And Its Motivation, Alice Thies

Bachelors’ Theses

If we examine a school curriculum made a half century ago, we shall find that the course in health instruction at that time consisted of lessons on bodily structure. Upon examination of later curricula, we shall find a gradual change in content to that of health instruction. Within the last few years, added knowledge concerning nutrition and growth, physical defects with their causes and results, and mental hygiene, has led to the realization that there must be new objectives and principles for the course in school hygiene. By referring to recent books, magazines, and addresses on this subject, I have …
