Rhetoric: Discovery And Achievement, Cal M. Logue

Iowa Journal of Communication

Recent writings on the function of rhetoric range from a limiting proposal of "advocacy"¹ to the challenging premise of "adapting ideas to the people and people to ideas."² Probably one should simply accept the fact that rhetoric means many things to many people. Inherent to the belief of most theorists, however, is the assumption that without such subjects as dialectic and philosophy " ... rhetoric is blind, for it has not truth."³ Historically rhetoric has been given the servant's role of persuasion. Debate has been over what are responsible and effective means of persuasion: sophistry, truth, style, …

A Survey Of Post Student Teacher Appraisal Of The Course, Elementary School Methods And Materials, At The University Of Northern Iowa, Mary Nan K. Aldridge

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

Elementary School Methods and Materials is a course which represents a major part of the professional semester and occupies a strategic position in the sequence of the elementary education major at the University of Northern Iowa. Those who plan course content make every effort to coordinate the theoretical aspects of the teaching process with practical classroom application. Though there has been a great deal of freedom for students to choose projects which meet their particular needs, interests, and personalities, it is considered that there exists a common core of knowledges and understandings which contribute background for the teaching task. By …

This study is an analysis of occupational prestige ratings of 3,122 Iowa high school seniors belonging to the class of 1970. They represented 90 percent of the seniors attending 21 randomly selected high schools, 18 of which can be categorized as public schools, two of which are parochial (Roman Catholic), and one of which is a university-connected laboratory school. There was one school (less than 250 students), one medium-size school (250-499 students), and one large school (500 or more students) in each of Iowa's seven congressional districts

The Role Of The Science Supervisor As Perceived By Elementary And Secondary Science Teachers, Thomas Graika

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

The problem that was considered in the study was whether the role of the science supervisor was perceived differently by secondary and elementary teachers of science.

A fifty-four item questionnaire was developed. The items on the questionnaire consisted of statements of tasks which a science supervisor could do, and the teachers were asked to respond on a scale of opinion if they considered this task a role of the science supervisor.

The sample represented five school systems in Iowa which employ a science supervisor. Questionnaires were sent to 156 secondary science teachers and 153 elementary teachers. Ninety-five of all the …

The Realistic Approach To Tradition And Change In The Novels Of Rabindranath Tagore, Robert C. Granner

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

Rabindranath Tagore was born in 1861 and died in 1941. Both his life and thought span the epoch of renascent India, and his novels realistically reflect the problems and struggles of the Indian people during the past century. In this thesis Tagore 's development, not so much as a great novelist but as a social commentator and reformer, is discussed. His role as a liberal mediator between the violent reactionary and the vehement traditionalist is a predominant factor in all of his prose writings, and it is from this point of view that each of his novels is examined.

Science And Social Change, Milton O. Pella

The meager period of time we call "ours" in the vast continuum from creation to dissolution has but one constant and that constant is change; our time is one of unprecedented change.

Research In Teaching And The Development Of A Theory Of Science Teaching, R. P. Tisher

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

This paper outlines some of the significant aspects of research in teaching. Three phases can be distinguished in this research. They are the descriptive, the pragmatic and the eclectic-synthetic ones. The descriptive phase is characterized by the development of classroom observation schedules and the provision of sets of concepts permitting teachers and research workers to communicate about procedures. The categorization of behaviors has resulted in more attention being given to them. Hopefully, the vocabulary and concepts generated in the descriptive phase will not only aid in communicating ideas about teaching but will lead to a greater control over the process.

Recreational Reading In The Elementary School, Doris Fistler

Graduate Research Papers

A school librarian is often called upon to talk with groups of teachers and parents, as well as to present the library program to the administration, the school board, and the community. For these talks, more concrete material than, "I think . . . ," is needed. The purpose of this project was to gain from wide and varied reading a background that would serve as source material in presenting recreational reading to the above-mentioned groups.

Literally volumes of material have been written on the subject of recreational reading, numerous research studies have been made, and general concern by the …

Pre-Lmpoundment Boating Activity In The Saylorville Reservoir Area, Richard E. Lenning

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Studies of pre-impoundment boating activity were made in the Saylorville reservoir area, Polk County, Iowa, from June 1968 to December 1969. The peak period of boating on the Des Moines River in the area occurred in August and September, but because of low water, flat-bottomed boats and canoes made up about 78% (392 of 506) of river craft seen. An increase in large pleasure boats was observed during high river flow in early summer 1969. Most boating took place on weekend and holiday afternoons. Most boaters and canoeists had at least a high-school education, reported incomes of over $7000, and …

Community College Salary Practices Applied To Non-Degree Teachers, Lawrence Arthur Boyce

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

Community colleges throughout the country are hiring many non-degree persons to fill their need for vocational and technical teachers. This study sought to determine how community colleges were currently determining the salaries of non-degree teachers and what problems had occurred as a result. It was hypothesized that (1) community colleges had not made definite salary schedule provisions for nondegree teachers and (2) no interpersonal problems between degree and non-degree teachers had resulted from the use of non-degree teachers. The data for the study were obtained through use of , a questionnaire sent to each community college in Iowa Illinois, plus …
