89-Phase I Archaeological Assessment Of The Sima Property On The Lower Galien River In New Buffalo, Michigan, William M. Cremin, Gregory R. Walz

Reports of Investigations

Upon receipt of authorization from Mr. Randy A. Johnson of Bureau and Associates dated 9 Nov 89, for a Phase I archaeological survey of portions of the Sima Tract in Sections 2 and 3 of New Buffalo Township, TBS R21W, Berrien County, Michigan, researchers in the Department of Anthropology, Western Michigan University initiated a site file search and on 14-15 Nov conducted on-site evaluation in order to determine whether proposed development activities would adversely impact potentially significant archaeological resources. There follows a report of our research program, together with recommendations derived from our examination of the study area.

Response: An Interactive Study Technique, Jeanne M. Jacobson

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

Although an array of useful techniques are available to encourage effective studying, this is an aspect of the learning process in which teacher and students typically do not interact. The teacher's role is usually limited to providing instruction in study strategies, encouraging their use, and using the results of tests as feedback on the effectiveness of study.

Miscue Analysis For Classroom Use, Susan B. Argyle

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

During oral reading, students often say something other than what is actually printed in the book. Such "miscues" can be used to help teachers make decisions about upcoming reading instruction. Deviations from text during oral reading are not simply random mistakes (Goodman, 1969), but form patterns that reveal useful information about children's reading abilities. A relaxed version of miscue analysis can take as little as ten minutes to administer and score. This kind of information provides a profile of the reader's strengths and weaknesses which in turn gives important clues as to the range of strategies students use during reading.

Adapting Basal Instruction To Improve Content Area Reading, Donna E. Alvermann

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

Expanding basal reading instruction so that students will develop the ability to read effectively in the content areas is a recognized concern and legitimate goal of middle school teachers. This article offers suggestions on how teachers can achieve that goal by adapting the procedures recommended in their present basal manuals. Specifically, adaptations are suggested in three common basal procedures: setting the purpose, developing a vocabulary, and discussing the selection. Each adaptation can serve as a bridge for helping students apply what they learn in basal reading instruction to content area reading.

Microcomputer Applications For Content Area Vocabulary, Stephen Phelps, Lawrence L. Smith

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

Microcomputers have become fixtures in most schools. It would be a rare elementary, middle, or high school which did not have a microcomputer lab, and many teachers now have at least one micro available in the classroom itself. With the proliferation of the microcomputer and its attendant software have come many potential uses in content areas (Blanchard & Mason, 1985). Vocabulary instruction is perhaps one of the most accessible and versatile areas in which the microcomputer can be a significant adjunct to content teaching.

They Can All Sound Good, Lorraine Mary Leidholdt

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

At one time or another every elementary classroom teacher hears a child's oral reading performance which makes him/her feel uncomfortable. Hesitations, repetitions, improper use of intonation skills and word mispronunciations abound. Inconsistent rate and rhythm make comprehension of the text nearly impossible for the listener. One typically associates this type of reading with children who have below grade level reading achievement. however, this need not be the case. In rooms where teachers understand the variables of fluent texting behavior and use techniques which incorporate the principles of effective practice and learning, listeners will not be able to distinguish between the …

Children As Storytellers, David Hayes

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

While listening to stories requires making mental illustrations and invites internalization of story structure, the telling of stories demands blending thought and language to the enhancement of both. The rewards for children who learn this art form, retelling favorite stories or creating new ones include an increasingly mature language fluency, expanded vocabulary, a bridge to their own written narratives, and the confidence to speak in front of groups.

All Books and Monographs by WMU Authors

Hellol I am Milt Cudney, author of this workbook. I suspect you wouldn't be reading this workbook if you didn't have an interest in eliminating self-defeating behaviors and replacing them with more life-giving ones. In over 30 years of counseling with people of all walks of life I have learned some things about behavior change that may be useful to you. It is my pleasure to be able to pass these learnings on to you.

You will find direction in this pamphlet about how to live more creatively. To do so, however, you will need to understand and apply the …

"Supercalendering: The Blackening Reaction And Its Effect On Strength And Optical Properties Of Rotogravure Paper", Valerie Bland

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

This senior engineering problem is the study of the mechanism of blackening and methods of measurement for blackening. The effect of blackening is the loss of color and opacity in the sheet. The loss of color results as a darker sheet. There are 3 major variables which cause blackening: moisture content, nip pressures, and roll temperatures. The increase in any of these variables results in blackening. In this experiment, the increase of moisture content produced the most significant blackening. The increase of pressure and increase of temperature produced slight blackening effects. The most blackened sheet occurred at 10% moisture, 200 …
