Industrial Arts Safety Program For Interstate 35 Junior High, Karlos G. Mcclure

Graduate Student Work

Accident prevention is the concern of most citizens, but it is the special concern of the industrial arts teacher. School shops are potentially dangerous places, but when properly equipped, arranged, and managed, provide a relative accident free environment.

Occasionally accidents in the shop do happen. The shop teacher is interested in preventing accidents to the students and protecting himself and the school against liability.

The desire of parents to seek damages for an injured pupil may well be understood, but every effort must be done to prevent a situation such as this from happening. The industrial arts instructor must be …

Leadership And Language, Marvin D. Jensen

Iowa Journal of Communication

Eric Hoffer, in his new book Reflections on the Human Condition, observes: We never say so much as when we do not quite know what we want to say. We need few words when we have something to say, but all the words in all the dictionaries will not suffice when we have nothing to say and want desperately to say it.

His words echo the desperation of a leaderless time. The central view I offer is this: the present crisis of leadership is a crisis of language--and this dual crisis is upon us from the campus to the …

The School Librarian And The Elementary Social Studies Curriculum, Gerald Richard Eberle

Graduate Research Papers

The social studies curriculum is in an era of transition. It is a complex, multidimensional, often confusing, but tremendously challenging subject. Because research and study in this area double and redouble in very short periods of time, educators face the problem of remaining informed of new developments.

As the school librarian participates in all areas of curriculum planning, a knowledge of theory and practical application is necessary. In the social studies curriculum a review of its evolution in American education is helpful. This includes general aims and objectives, its history in American education, present criticism of its relevance to today's …

A Survey Of The Utilization Of The Video Tape Recorder In Iowa Secondary Schools, Thomas W. Bingaman

Graduate Research Papers

As education in the United States continues to grow in importance, a number of factors that influence the learning process become increasingly significant. The use of educational media in the schools is one of the problems facing teachers and administrators. Technology in the media field has a marked tendency to move ahead much faster that the ability of educators to put these new tools to use. One such example of this dilemma is the video tape recorder.

As more and more Iowa school districts purchase video tape equipment, the question of utilization of this apparatus becomes important. It is necessary …

Age, Iq Effects And Reliability Of A Stereoscopic Test For Field Dominance, David M. Pierce

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Results support findings by Bechtoldt and Colliver for temporal dominance of the visual field. The test-retest reliability of the stereoscopic procedure for assessing dominance of the nasal or temporal visual fields was found to be significant for both left and right temporal fields. Furthermore, the test results appear to be unaffected by age or by level of intellectual functioning. Further research is in order both to evaluate competing theories of binocular rivalry and suppression and to assess optical processes at cortical and subcortical levels.

How Do You Tell The Good Guys From The Bad Guys, Ruth J. Laws

Iowa Journal of Communication

The cover of the November 1968 issue of Psychology Today illustrates a political candidate standing on the rear platform of a whistle-stop train. The scene appears to depict a dilemma in the political arena today. On the candidate's right is a mother lifting her baby for the politician to kiss; on his left a television camera is held up to him. Actually the contemporary candidate is faced with no conflict of decision. He swiftly moves to plant his image on the video camera.

This situation makes it apparent that the popularity of television has done more than reduce the ticket …
