Investigation Of The Cis-Trans Isomers Of Tetrachlorodiaquorhodate (Iii) Anion, Kenneth Lee Bridges

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

A coordination compound, or complex, is formed when an atom, molecule, or ion unites by donating a pair of electrons with another atom, molecule, or ion able to accept the pair. In metal .coordination compounds, a metal-ion is the electron pair acceptor and usually is able to accept more than one pair. The number of electron-pairs which can be used in bonding is called the coordination number. The donor atom, molecule, or ion is called a ligand.

A Diagnostic Rhythm Test For Students In Grades Four, Five, And Six Of The Hartley Community School, Russell Jay Elliott

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

The purpose of this study was to determine (1) if there was a low standard of rhythmic response in certain fourth, fifth, and sixth grade pupils in the Hartley (Iowa) Community School; (2) if it was possible to construct a diagnostic instrument which would identify the specific areas of weakness which may contribute to the low standard of rhythmic response in these students; and (3) if the results obtained from the administration of the diagnostic instrument would enable the writer to make recommendations for teaching methods and materials which may correct the deficiencies found.

The Shift In Focus From The Group To The Individual In The Later Novels Of John Steinbeck, Sandra Lee Gabel

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

John Steinbeck demonstrates a shift from the group hero, in some of his earlier novels, to the individual hero in his later novels. It is evident that in East of Eden and The Winter of Our Discontent Steinbeck is more concerned with the individual human being than he was in such earlier novels as Of Mice and Men and The Grapes of Wrath. A contrast with two novels which fall in an earlier period, 1940 and before, will clarify the development of the individual man as hero in Steinbeck's later novels. Steinbeck changes his emphasis from the group, in Of …

Resource Heritage And Conservation Education, Arnold O. Haugen

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

Good conservation involves wise use of resources. Consideration must be given to long-time use by people of both this and future generations. In some cases good conservation dictates that we make only limited or no use of a particular resource. Examples of the latter are Iowa's few remnant native prairie areas and relatively undisturbed forest areas. Iowa's resources also include its soils, water, woodlots, wildlife, fishes, and geological, paleontological and historical sites. Availability of Iowa resources for future use will depend on how we manage to use or abuse them today.

A Study Of The Use Of Laboratory Methods To Promote Student Discovery In Tenth-Grade Geometry, Russell Franklin Hein

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

In recent years there has been a trend toward the use of discovery methods in the teaching of mathematics. This trend has been especially noticeable in the teaching of geometry since this subject deals with various plane and solid figures which contain many relationships for the students to discover. There has also been increased interest in the use of audio-visual materials for the presentation of geometric topics. This has been particularly evident in the use of models for solid or three-dimensional geometry. The use of such models has not only enabled the students to more readily grasp the desired relationships …
