Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

This exploratory study was conducted to survey and compare students who chose a four year university oriented textiles and clothing in business program and students who chose a two year vocationally oriented fashion merchandising program. Comparisons were made between the two samples in selected demographic information: family and educational backgrounds, personal orientation to a fashion retailing career, and personal professional goals. Comparisons were also made in students' knowledge of current fashion awareness, interest in clothing, and values assigned to clothing. Participants for this study were from a state university and a state area school. Twenty-eight junior and senior majors in …

The Development Of A Nutrition Education Game For The Expanded Nutrition Program In Black Hawk County, Iowa, Linda Foster Benedict

The development of the game included three main steps--review of commercial games, designing …

A Study Of Dr. Donald Maley's Theory -- "Research And Experimentation In Industrial Arts", John Edward Ferree

Graduate Research Papers

The problem of this study is to make a thorough examination of Dr. Donald Maley's theory -- "Research and Experimentation in Industrial Arts in the Junior or Senior High School."

Perhaps now in 1968, more than ever, concern for what is in store for industrial arts is, or should be, considered more "grave" than expressed in the above quote of Dr. Maley in 1959. Certainly now it could generally be agreed that all theories concerning the future path of industrial arts, of which Dr. Maley's Research and Experimentation theory is one, deserve a full measure of study and evaluation by …

What's Happening To The Elementary School Library?, Joan Henderson

Graduate Research Papers

Far too many adults and children have not had especially pleasant experiences with libraries in the past. The traditional quietness was enough to scare anyone away. Ordinary people didn't exactly feel welcome inside the walls of these "storehouses of wisdom." Today's library has to develop a new image. It must leave the old passive role behind and blossom forth into active participation in the educational process.

The Contributions Of The School Library To The Learning Process, Alice Rose Weber

Graduate Research Papers

The goal of education in our democratic society is to educate citizens to function in such a. society; the goal of the school library service is to facilitate the attainment of that goal. The library program must enrich, support, vitalize and implement the educational program, and encourage each student to reach his potential as a human, a learner and a citizen of both today and tomorrow.

The Comparative Effects Of Individualized And Group Instruction In Bscs Biology On The Ability Of Students To Think Critically, Harry F. Fulton

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

Research in the area of critical thinking ability many times involves the use of the Watson and Glaser Critical Thinking Appraisal (WGCTA). These abilities involve inference or drawing conclusions from facts or premises, recognition of assumptions or hypotheses, deduction or working from basic premises to conclusions, interpretation of data to derive or explain its meaning, and the evaluation of arguments or evidence. The items on this instrument are not specifically limited to science. As a result, when researching the effect of an instructional procedure in science, the teachers and all other subjects the students are exposed to need to be …

Teaching Teaching, D. J. Moffatt, A. W. Jacobs, W. K. Metcalf

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

The role of a modern Anatomy department is threefold (Metcalf, 1970): 1. To teach anatomy and its sub-disciplines, gross anatomy, neuroanatomy, microscopic anatomy and embryology, to people who wish to learn it. 2. To advance the science of anatomy-the structural basis of function. 3. To train graduate students for a future role as anatomy faculty.

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, …

Three Illustrators: William Blake, George Cruikshank And Maurice Sendak, Patricia Twait

Graduate Research Papers

Children's books have been a source of delight to them; they have evoked both tears and laughter from young audiences. The illustrator has come to be a partner in the creation of hooks for children. The term children's literature now includes the efforts of both illustrators and authors. It was not always so. For many years children read adult books because there was no such thing as a storybook for children. When they came, the books for children were dull fare. They were moralizing with few, if any, illustrations.

Gradually illustrators began illustrating books specifically for children. The literary content …
