The Education Of The Retarded Pupil, Rose M. Murphy

Bachelors’ Theses

The retarded pupil that will be considered is the normal child whose mental age and achievement score are below the standards accepted for a child of his chronological age. The school must provide for this type of child now, more than formerly, due to the increased period of attendance required, and changed economic conditions. Regarding this matter Ryan and Crecelius’ state the following:

"Until recently secondary education has concerned itself very little with ’the masses’. in this country the original purpose of the secondary school was to provide selected youths with the training prerequisite for theological study."

The Radio In Music Education, Adaline E. Wilk

Bachelors’ Theses

Up to the present the music of the world, in its completences, has been the private preserve of a little band of people who happened to live in the places where it could be heard, and who happened to have money enough to pay to hear it. Henceforth, it belongs to everybody. This means an immense widening of public interest in music, and I believe, a great raise of public taste. In five years' time, in my expectation, the general musical public of Europe and America will be treble or quadruple its present size. And the next generation instead of …

The Value Of Music In The Elementary Grades, Anna M. Fox

Bachelors’ Theses

Why do same people smile and look blank at the mention of the study of art? Why do they look at art teachers as though they were in a class by themselves, as though they must be a queer lot? There 'is nothing unusual, nothing aristocratic about art, because art is life itself. If it is not a live thing it has failed to be art. Think of' the works of art in music, painting, and sculpture that have lived on down through the ages, and will continue to live on and on. A great man once said, "That all …

Bachelors’ Theses

There is no field in educational study which has done so much to bring about in our schools the realiza­tion of the spirit of the new education as has the study of extra-curriculum activities in secondary schools. The development of these activities has justified and possibly encouraged the rapid growth of our school popu­lation today.

Extra-Curricular Activities In The Junior High School, Irma Crotty

Bachelors’ Theses

The value of extra-curricular activities in the junior high school is no longer questioned. The amount of space given to them in recent educational publications proves that there is an intense interest in them at the present.

This contribution is an attempt to set forth the basic principles underlying the administration and supervision of extra-curricular activities. A description of the common types of extra-curricular activities together with their aims and values, is presented. No attempt at detailed discussions has been made, as the problems of each activity are so vast that each one merits a volume in itself. A few …

The State High School Course In General Science, C. W. Lantz

Science Bulletin

The course of study in general science for high schools issued by the State Department of Public Instruction has recently come from the press. The course is divided into fifteen units. Of these, eight are devoted primarily to physical and chemical facts; five are of a biological nature; and two deal with facts of astronomy and meteorology. The authors, however, have succeeded well in constructing a course in general science and have not merely put together unrelated parts of physics, chemistry, biology, and astronomy.

Cell Secrets, R. W. Getchell

Science Bulletin

This is a true picture of one class of cell products, the enzymes; and it represents with considerable accuracy two other products of the cell, the vitamines and the hormones. These three wonderful agencies challenge our interest and provoke a tremendous amount of research at present because they are so far-reaching in their effects and because they hugely baffle any attempt to isolate or identify them.
