The Effect Of Temporal Separation On Performance Of A Discrimination Task, Stanley Dale Winter Aug 1973

The Effect Of Temporal Separation On Performance Of A Discrimination Task, Stanley Dale Winter

Masters Theses

Test trials, consisting of the selection of two color cubes from a set of three different color cubes, were presented with: (1) a 15-second time delay between trials, (2) a single-color selection task between trials, (3) an unrelated motor task between trials and (4) no interspersion between trials. All Ss performed the task with more accuracy when test trials were separated by the unrelated motor task. The lowest level of accuracy occurred when test trials were presented sequentially with no interspersion. Performance appeared to be facilitated by the temporal separation of test trials.


A Comparison Between Self-Paced And Instructor-Paced Instructional Systems, Laura Lee Winter Aug 1973

A Comparison Between Self-Paced And Instructor-Paced Instructional Systems, Laura Lee Winter

Masters Theses

Two college level systems of instruction derived from basic behavioral principals were compared. Community college students enrolled in two sections of an introductory psychology course served as subjects. Students in one section experienced a self-paced system of instruction. Students in the second section went through the course under an instructor-paced system of instruction. Students in the self-paced section received higher course grades and performed better on unit quizzes. However, the final examination performance for the two groups was about the same. Suggestions for further research are given.

Teaching Reading In The Secondary School: "Readiness And The All-School Reading Program.", Kenneth Vandermeulen Jul 1973

Teaching Reading In The Secondary School: "Readiness And The All-School Reading Program.", Kenneth Vandermeulen

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

In the following paragraphs are listed a number of ideas for bringing attention to reading in the school. As the admen say, if you have their attention, half the battle is won. This article is directed to the typical teacher of reading in a school where not enough such attention is being paid to the cause of reading improvement. Our conviction is that the teacher of reading cannot accomplish much by working with a few students at a time in developmental or corrective reading. Our suggestions are meant to encourage the one or two members of the faculty who are …

The Socialist Evolvement Of The Cuban Revolution 1948-1960, Ross E. Chapman May 1973

The Socialist Evolvement Of The Cuban Revolution 1948-1960, Ross E. Chapman

Honors Theses

Fidel Castro came to power in Cuba after a surprisingly powerless Batista fled the country during the early morning hours of January 1, 1959. Joyous celebration swept the country as Castro made his triumphant journey across the island, leaving his hideout of two years in the Sierra Maestra for Havana. The revolution had succeeded in over throwing the hated Batista, for whom almost all elements of Cuban society felt disdain. The people were rejoicing at his overthrow* let most had little conception of what was to come. Fidel Castro, outside of being a popular hero, was a little known commodity …

New Life For A Reading Program, Alice Pietryka, Norma Searle Apr 1973

New Life For A Reading Program, Alice Pietryka, Norma Searle

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

Many early elementary classroom teachers have difficulty finding reading material that will supplement a basal reader. Because the thoughts and actions of young children often revolve around their own personal interests and experiences, classroom teachers are bombarded by students anxious to relate what to them are momentous happenings. Children are vitally concerned with themselves; why not take advantage of this enthusiasm and build it into a learning experience? Why not have your children write their own stories?
