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 …

Ten Years Of Research On Corrective Reading Programs: A Review Of The Literature, Sharon L. Smith
Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts
The purpose of this paper is to survey the research of the past ten years on corrective or remedial reading programs. In the literature, various definitions are given to corrective reading and remedial reading programs, but in this paper no distinction will be made between the two terms. Both terms refer to a plan of corrective instruction and treatment for the disabled reader, generally outside of the regular classroom setting.

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

In this thesis a history of the metric system is given. The metric system, as it relates to the paper industry and its associated industries, is discussed.

From this survey, the questionnaires returned indicated that the majority of the paper manufacturers, paper merchants, and printers were mildly in favor of metrication …
The Badness Of Bad Words, Louis Foley
The Badness Of Bad Words, Louis Foley
Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts
Everybody knows-and feels as if he had always known-all the common "bad" words. We all know them because they have been very effectively taught. The things that we remember from our earliest years are the things connected with emotional experiences. The bad words make unforgettable first impressions, not only because typically they are uttered very distinctly and emphatically but because they are outbursts of strong feeling. Also from the beginning they are likely to be associated with startling incidents or confrontation with unpleasant people that would shock us anyhow. So they stick firmly in our memory, whether or not we …

In-Service Reading Programs: Are They Relevant?, Nicholas P. Criscuolo
Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts
Colleges and universities are presently launching a broad-based attack on improving their pre-service programs in the teaching of reading. The need for such an attack was evidenced by the first Harvard Carnegie Study (1) which disclosed inadequacies in pre-service reading courses. This report also revealed the failure of colleges to provide for practical approaches to the teaching of reading by prospective teachers.

A Study To Determine The Effectiveness Of An Interest Grouping Classification For Primary Grade Children, Dianne T. Mcafee Williams
A Study To Determine The Effectiveness Of An Interest Grouping Classification For Primary Grade Children, Dianne T. Mcafee Williams
Masters Theses
The purpose was to determine if a subject arrangement of easy fiction books, based on the interests of primary-grade children, and denoted by picture symbols, would make the students more satisfied with, and independent in, their book selections, as compared to an author arrangement of easy fiction books.
The study was divided into two parts, the former dealing with the author arrangement and the latter dealing with the subject arrangement. Tally sheets of student subject requests were kept by the librarian in a comparison of the two arrangements. Followup included questionnaires to primary grade teachers and librarian, and interviews with …

The Mental Patient As Machiavellian: An Exploratory Study, Louise B. Leader
The Mental Patient As Machiavellian: An Exploratory Study, Louise B. Leader
Masters Theses
A basic question in the study of mental illness has been whether mental patients were victims of society or manipulators of their own careers. Four hypotheses were developed to investigate the manipulative aspect of this question. Patients were selected from three different mental institutions: a state hospital, a Veteran's Administration Hospital, and a private church-related hospital. The patients' records and a group-administered battery of test instruments provided the data used to test the hypotheses. Only one of the hypotheses was supported and the basic question remained unanswered. Lack of support for the remaining three hypotheses was not seen as conclusive …

Teaching Reading In Business Subjects, Ron C. Deyoung
Teaching Reading In Business Subjects, Ron C. Deyoung
Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts
"Anyone can read" is the attitude of some people, even people who should know better. The fallacy of such an attitude is realized with the following analogy. Aristotle is known to have said, "One learns to be a good flute player by playing the flute. One also learns to be a poor flute player by playing the flute." In the same way, one learns to be a good or poor reader by reading.

Conflict Theory: Concepts, Techniques, And Stages, Thomas Kramer
Honors Theses
The social worker of today is being placed in situations which call for him to devise new tools and strategies of intervention which are relevant to present day problems. It is recognized that many of our current social problems are inherent in some of our institutions and that only by changing these institutions can real results be achieved. Problems arise due to the fact that these institutions often stringently resist change and conventional methods employed by professional practitioners have often only been able to solve or ease individual difficulties or maladustments. There have been a growing number of social workers …
