Condominium Housing: Some Social And Economic Implications, Frank G. Mittelbach, Joe Ebin

The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare

The functioning of condominium communities and projects has received increased attention from housing analysts in many professions. As of 1973, there were an estimated 15,000 condominium and townhouse communities in the United States, a figure expanding approximately by 4,000 annually.

In this context, the proliferation of home owners associations in the communities or projects is of special interest due to their emerging role as a new form of residential government. This role manifests itself as both supplementary and in part complementary to the existing government framework. The collective provision and maintenance of selected services, including roads, utilities, lighting, refuse collection, …

Residential Alienation, Home Ownership And The Limits Of Shelter Policy, Peter Marcuse

The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare

There is greater public confusion over housing policy today than there has been in any comparable period in the last thirty years. The Nixon-Ford administration's wholesale program terminations and budget slashes only cloak the problem temporarily. Everyone agrees that the ostrich ought to get his head out of the sand, but few agree where he should go once he doel so. Housing allowances, at this point, seem to many the best answei; at least they haven't been proven wanting yet. But others disagree, and certainly there is reason to be wary.

Environmental Influences On Decisions Regarding Structure And Function Of Homes For The Aged, Jordan I. Kosberg

The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare

Many of the stereotypes of homes for the aged* are carryovers from the past. By and large, these homes had rather limited objectives which revolved around the notion that homes should be custodial institutions. It can be said that these institutions had been extensions of the poor farm, giving shelter (and little more) to the aged who had nowhere else to go. In the past, social norms required grown children to care and provide for their aged parents, and the three-generation family under one roof was common-place. The nature of American society during these years (before urbanization and large-scale industrialization) …

The Impact Of Urban Removal From A Child's Point Of View, L. K. Northwood

The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare

It is the premise of this paper that forced urban resettlement has more devastating consequences for children and their families than the usual voluntary moving process. The moving process, whether forced or voluntary, involves the following phases: a decision to change the place of residence, an exploration of housing opportunities in various areas, the final selection of one of these, activities associated with making the move, and activities associated with getting settled in the new house and neighborhood.

The Quest For Competency In The Teaching Of Reading: A Librarian's Point Of View, Jean Lowrie

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

I would like to do three things: first, share with you a picture of libraries as they are now developing programs and planning for tomorrow's needs; present some specific examples of library services which relate to reading needs; finally, explore some examples of today's reading materials which I hope you as reading specialists either know about or with which you will become familiar, and which you and your clientele can obtain through library collections.

Four Strategies For Teaching Reading In Content Areas, R. Baird Shuman

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

Despite all that has been written about the teaching of reading in the content areas, and despite the existence of books such as Herber's Teaching Reading in Content Areas (Englewood Cliffs, N. J.: Prentice Hall, 1970), Laffey's Reading in the Content Areas (Newark, Delaware: International Reading Association, 1972), and Robinson and Thomas' Fusing Reading Skills and Content (Newark, Delaware: International Reading Association, 1969), most secondary school teachers in the content areas still feel inadequate to teach reading and, even though they acknowledge the existence of a substantial reading program among their

Making A Dent In The Content: Reading That Is, Elmer J. Cummings

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

In 1954 Rudolf Flesch wrote a book published by Harper and Brothers that caused an upheaval in homes and public schools throughout America. His book Why Johnny Can't Read is referred to as an angry book by an aroused parent. The conclusion drawn by Dr. Flesch as to why Johnny can't read is that "nobody ever showed him how" (Flesch, 1965, p. 2).

Field Based Teacher Education Promise Or Problem, Mary Jane Gray

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

One of the most widely advocated recommendations for improving the teaching of methods courses is to put them in an elementary school setting. This should help to ensure that practice is related to theory. Although this is very desirable some questions arise concerning the organization and implementation of such a program.

A Report Of An Internship In Gull Lake Community Schools, Gull Lake, Michigan, Gary J. Jackson

Masters Theses

The Gull Lake Community Schools, a class B school with an enrollment of 3000 students, 145 teachers, and 12 administrative staff, provided an intern experience for me from June 24, 1974 to August 14, 1974.

The intern experience was related to the role of the school superintendent. The role of the superintendent varies from district to district but generally playing the role requires a great deal of human, conceptual, and technical skills that when utilized properly result in a healthy, productive educational institution.

As a result of the internship, this intern believes that he has a very broad knowledge of …
