The Electoral College: Retention, Reform, Or Abolition?, Gary E. Brown

Honors Theses

Several Presidential elections during our history have shown that the electoral college machine is a crude invention that has never been "well-oiled" and two elections within the last decade are vivid proof of this problem.

Fourteenth Century Normans In West Africa, Kaye Louise Centers

Honors Theses

During the seventeenth century, a legend grew among the French which claims that during the reign of Charles V of France, a group of industrious and daring sailors of Normandy sailed to northwest Africa and then into the unknown waters of West Africa. By 1383 these Normans had reached the Gold Coast and had established a flourishing trade with the people there. This story seems very remarkable because it was not until the mid-fifteenth century that the Portuguese,under the direction and guidance of Prince Henry, ventured for the first time into West African waters and not until 1*4-86 that they …

Science And Social Relevance, Gerald Holton

Perspectives (1969-1979)

Featured Address presented at the Association for General and Liberal Studies' Annual Meeting at Colgate University, October 30th through November 1st, 1969.

Having struggled myself with various experiments in General Education over the years, what I'd like to talk about today are not any of the successes but rather some of the problems, particularly the problems that I see coming to us faster and faster in this business of bringing education in science to students who, many of them, are turning away from science and all it stands for.

A Plan To Improve Reading Instruction For The Superior Student In First Grade, Jo Ann Nieuwkoop

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

Teachers often become so concerned about children who are having difficulty that the needs of the superior students are neglected. Bright students often learn early to work independently; because of this, teachers "put them on their own." All of the students in the classroom need guidance in their development, but good readers need a different kind of guidance than that required for the average or slow learners. It is important for superior students to develop and mature physically, emotionally, socially as well as mentally so that they may become well developed personalities who will be better able to make worthwhile …

Echoes From The Field, Joe R. Chapel, Ronald A. Crowell

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

Two years ago a group of reading teachers at the college level met for the purpose of discussing current problems in helping college students read better. As a result of this meeting, the Michigan College Reading Association was established. The basic purpose of the organization is to serve as a channel of communication between people in the field so that members can get acquainted, discuss ongoing programs, exchange ideas and information, and investigate issues of mutual concern. Through this association members hope to encourage reading programs at the college level as well as to improve their own programs and teaching …

A Multi-Media Approach To Reading, Lucetta A. Johnson

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

As a new teacher in the Allegan Public Schools one of the primary goals for the year was to present reading activities to the children in as many interesting ways as possible to enrich their reading experiences. A multi-media approach was chosen to accomplish this goal and to encourage the children to love books. By multi-media approach (1) is meant an approach that uses as many printed and audiovisual forms of communication as possible. The program used consisted of the following media, which are by no means all that are currently available: Basal Readers, Library Books, Film Strips, Educational Television, …
