The Unit Method Of Teaching General Science In High Schools, M. Maxentia

Bachelors’ Theses

During the past quarter of a century, while the demand for teaching science in high schools was increasing, there has been a constant experimentation going on. This experimentation was carried on, not only by the heads of the science and educational departments of our colleges and universities, the superintendents, and principals of high schools, but also by the teachers themselves. It has been a question of what to teach in general science and how to teach it so that the pupil would get the best knowledge of the subject and acquire the ability of proper application of this knowledge in …

Insects And Man, Roy L. Abbott

Science Bulletin

Because of their relationship to dangerous human parasites, insects have been responsible for the death of more people than all other animals put together. Confirmation of this astounding statement can be seen in the close relationship between houseflies and typhoid fever, between rat fleas and plague, tsetse flies and sleeping sickness, and that between mosquitoes and yellow fever and malaria.

Joseph Henry, W. H. Kadesch

Science Bulletin

Have you ever asked your pupils the question, what American has contributed most to the development of electrical science? Very likely a great majority would answer without hesitation, Edison, the inventor of the incandescent light. Some might answer, Bell, the inventor of the telephone. A few, the radio fans, might say De Forest, the inventor of the three electrode tube. An occasional one might even answer Franklin, the first great American scientist, who drew electricity from the clouds, and showed that lightning and the "electric fluid" are the same. Not one, I am sure, would ever mention Joseph Henry.

This number of Science Bulletin is the last number for the school year 1929-30. We hope that we have been able to give the high school teachers of Iowa material that they have found interesting and helpful. The responses that we have had from you lead us to believe that we have been able in some measure to do this.

At The Close Of The School Year You Will Be Making Your Plans For The Summer.

Science Bulletin

At the close of the school year, you will be making your plans for the summer. Teachers have an excellent opportunity during the summer to advance themselves professionally by study and travel. Most of our universities and colleges have summer schools planned especially for teachers and I know of no better way to spend at least a part of your summer than at one of these.

Chemical Lecture Experiments, R. W. Getchell

Science Bulletin

Lecture experiments demand more time, require higher technical skill, and afford greater pupil interest than any other phase of chemistry teaching. As a corollary, we may add that they are most neglected, but if you name the teachers who are noted for their interesting, instructive, and skillful classroom demonstrations, you are calling the roll of chemistry teachers of the first rank.

The Gifted Child, Mabel E. Mclaughlin

Bachelors’ Theses

Within the last few years the problem of the education of the "gifted" child has taken on an aspect of very great importance. Numerous investigations have demonstrated the fact that children of the same chronological age exhibit differences of five years or more in mental age, and that even though they may have had the same number of years of schooling, they will be found scattered through several grades in a typical school.

Winter Birds Of Iowa, O. R. Clark

Science Bulletin

The study of birds should certainly form an important unit of every course in high school biology. Furthermore, this study should be continued through the entire school year in order to secure the most desirable results. The fall is an excellent time to begin the study because the number of birds to be found is not so great as to ca use confusion and the students will be able to become familiar with the means of identification and the common recognition marks of many of our common birds.
