The Rhodesian Crisis: The Struggle For Majority Rule 1965-1978, Richard W. Steketee

Masters Theses

Preface

On November 11, 1965, Ian Smith, Prime Minister of Rhodesia, proclaimed his country's unilateral declaration of independence (UDI) from Great Britain. His proclamation set off a storm of protest around the world from the United States to the Soviet Union. The criticisms were generally the same: the white minority government of Rhodesia was accused of illegally seizing power. Although most countries felt that the Rhodesian UDI was a British colonial problem, leaders from Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, and Zambia convened in Nairobi , Kenya, to discuss the potential need of taking matters out of British hands. The issue to them …

Goal Achievement In Two English New Towns: An Analysis Of Occupational Class Mixing In Crawley And Hemel Hempstead New Towns, Phillip J. Zimmerman

Masters Theses

Introduction

The decision of the British Government to publicly finance New Town building was a landmark event. The decision was, however, a result of many years of prior experimentation. These experiments ranged from trial-and-error to plans well thought out, that contained within them many philosophical goals.

The first widely accepted formulation of a New Town was that of Ebenezer Howard. The theoretical plan contained several goals that were to be developed, used, and modified by later British planners. Although Howard borrowed many goals from other "planners," he was one of the first to incorporate many identifiable goals into a single …

The Role And Function Of Informal Reading Evaluation, Donald C. Cushenbery

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

Many persons have developed the understanding that the evaluation of a given student's reading ability must take the form of the administration of a commerical, standardized reading test. Though the results of a standardized test can be valuable, secondary teachers need to develop an evaluation model which encompasses a number of factors. These aspects would include commercial tests, informal techniques, observational devices, and the study of past reading performance data accrued by a reader.

Oral Reading: Considerations Before Utilization, L.D. Briggs

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

One of the most revealing diagnostic devices used in the elementary school is oral reading. By using oral reading the teacher can evaluate the child's ability to respond to punctuation marks, to apply phonics, to recognize basic sight words, to phrase correctly, and to apply other reading skills. The child's strengths and weaknesses can easily be determined through the use of oral reading, and an individual improvement program can be based on an evaluation of reading skills as reflected by oral reading. Without question, oral reading is an essential activity for effective teaching. Oral reading, however, is not an extensively …
