Effectiveness Procedures For Teaching Reference Study Skills, Donald C. Cushenbery

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

In many elementary developmental reading programs, the areas of word attack and comprehension traditionally receive major attention with respect to reading skills instruction. In some other cases there is much emphasis with respect to phonics and other forms of decoding with less priority given to comprehension. Typically, the skill area receiving the least amount of importance is that of reference study skills since it is assumed by some teachers that if a student is efficient in word attack and comprehension, he/she will naturally transmit these skills to assignments dealing with library resources.

Attention has been given to social work education in relation to health care practice. Another …

Social Polics And Social Welfare Administration, Bernard Neugeboren

The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare

Effective administration of social welfare programs requires the integration of knowledge of social policy with the understanding of the theory and practice of management and administrative decision making. This integration of substantive knowledge of social policy with administrative practice is needed to avoid overemphasis on means to the detriment of the goals of social programs. This paper discusses a policy analysis framework in relationship to a model of decisionmaking which includes rational and non-rational elements. Principles of policy formulation (major system change) is applied to specific issues in social welfare, i.e. should social services be directed at changing the individual …

A Program For The Development Of Liberal Studies In Science, James L. Goatley

Perspectives (1969-1979)

Most academic disciplines have a clear relationship between the research that is done and the content of courses that are taught. In the area of general education and liberal studies, however, the reciprocal relationships between teaching and scholarly investigation are much less well understood. On this paper general education refers to courses that are taught and liberal studies to the scholarship related to this course work.) The author believes that there is difficulty because the domains of general education and related liberal studies have been poorly articulated. The problem is particularly acute in general education and liberal studies in science. …
