Collegiate Programs For Secondary Students: Meeting The Needs Of The Talented, Edward L. Pizzini, Charles Philp Jan 1974

Collegiate Programs For Secondary Students: Meeting The Needs Of The Talented, Edward L. Pizzini, Charles Philp

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

The concept "meeting the needs of the individual student" has been paid lip service for years within educational circles. Whether this has in fact been carried out to any appreciable extent is still open to question. Since the inception of the Secondary Science Training Programs (SSTP) by the National Science Foundation in 1959, hundreds of colleges and universities have sponsored special science programs for high-ability students. However, the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare stated in November, 1973, that fewer than four percent of this country's talented secondary students were being exposed to programs commensurate with their needs (Williams, 1973). …

The Mini-Patt Approach To Individualizing Instruction, Jimmy R. Jenkins, Gerald H. Krockover Jan 1974

The Mini-Patt Approach To Individualizing Instruction, Jimmy R. Jenkins, Gerald H. Krockover

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

In the past, the preparation of audio-tutorial tapes has been tedious and time-consuming. In order to produce a commercial quality audio-tutorial tape, the instructor had to outline the format of the presentation, gather the necessary materials, and prepare a rough tape. This tape was then transcribed into a script, the script was edited (usually by the instructor) and a final tape for instructional purposes was prepared from the edited script. Usually the above sequence of steps required approximately eight to ten hours, which would be spread over a two- or three-day period, with the end product being a 30-minute reel-to-reel …

A Model For Implementing Individualization In The Science Classroom, Barton Philipps Jan 1974

A Model For Implementing Individualization In The Science Classroom, Barton Philipps

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

Teachers today find themselves in the middle of tremendous education changes and as teachers they will be expected to play an important part in implementing course revisions. Which part shall they play? Some have closed their eyes to the new directions and hope they will go away, but like the ostrich these teachers are just fooling themselves. The numbers of open classroom elementary schools are increasing and the traditional ways of presenting science in the high schools will encounter greater student resentment. It therefore behooves teachers to begin to look for a way to introduce change in their classroom. What …

What's A Kohoutek?, David Hurd Jan 1974

What's A Kohoutek?, David Hurd

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

It was discovered in March of 1973 by Lubos Kohoutek, a German astronomer working at the Hamburg Observatory. The discovery images, on photographic plates taken during an asteroid search, did not indicate the impressive qualities of this travelling space iceberg. It was after 4 weeks of observation that the orbit of this new comet was calculated. The orbit turned out to classify Comet Kohoutek as a member of the "sun-grazers."

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

The 1972 University of Iowa Summer Institute for High School Biology Teachers was designed to assist participants in implementing the course, Biological Science: Molecules to Man (Blue Version), developed by the Biological Sciences Curriculum Study (BSCS). The program consisted of eight weeks of classroom instruction and was supported by the National Science Foundation. Instruction was planned to provide the participants with an opportunity to improve their competence in biological subject matter and to become acquainted with teaching strategies inherent in materials produced by BSCS. In order to accomplish these objectives, participants were enrolled in three related courses.
