A Study Of Learning Utilizing Visual-Visual And Visual-Auditory Stimuli, Alice Ann Geiger Jan 1964

A Study Of Learning Utilizing Visual-Visual And Visual-Auditory Stimuli, Alice Ann Geiger

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

In a fast moving world, reading ability becomes increasingly more important. Despite television, radio, and movies, reading is still the most important method of broadening our horizons (5, p. 125). To scan the world events and study the particulars requires good reading skills. Again and again the question is asked if the best possible method of reading instruction is being utilized with our boys and girls (1, p. 79 and 4, pp. 169-170). For that matter, we might ask if we adults are making the most of our ability to identify, interpret, and evaluate facts, so that we can intelligently …

An Analysis Of Cytological Screening For Cervical Cancer (A 7 Year Survey), Phoebe E. Rutherford

Masters Theses

Introduction

It is the purpose of this study to review the cervical cancers, stained by Papanicolaou (1956:3-6) method, at Borgess Hospital, Kalamazoo, Michigan, from September, 1956 to September 1963.

The Effect Of Thrust On The Development Of Strength With The Mead Refiner, G. Hayward Dec 1963

The Effect Of Thrust On The Development Of Strength With The Mead Refiner, G. Hayward

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

Several different thrust pressures were exerted on the plates of the Mead Laboratory Refiner and pulp samples were refined over a wide freeness range for each of the several pressures. The strength characteristics developed were measured and it was found that maximum burst and tensile strength was developed by a thrust pressure of 31.22 pounds. Maximum tearing strength was developed at a thrust pressure of 25.94 pounds.

The refining time required to reach a given freeness increased as as the thrust was reduced, but reached a maximum at 20.66 pounds and remained constant for lesser pressures.

Developing Creativity In Reading, Myrtie M. Barnhardt Oct 1963

Developing Creativity In Reading, Myrtie M. Barnhardt

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

Have you ever heard a teacher make the remark, "I just can't teach my children to be creative?" It makes one wonder just what that teacher means by "being creative." Is creativity taught in a certain pattern step by step? Applegate in her book, Helping Children Write, says, "Creativity cannot be taught. It can only be released and guided by a competent teacher." (1) It is often difficult for children to reveal what is on the inside, for they have been disappointed by adults too often when they have exposed their feelings to them. One of the important facts that …

An Individualized Reading Program In The Elementary Classroom, Janet Langerveld Oct 1963

An Individualized Reading Program In The Elementary Classroom, Janet Langerveld

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

Not long ago after reading many articles dealing with an individualized approach to reading, the writer was challenged to attempt this "new method" with a selected group of students. These children were to be given an opportunity to select their own materials for their instruction and to participate in individual conferences with the teach er. This paper is a brief account of the writer's experience.

Federal – Local Relations: A Case Study Of The City Of Kalamazoo In 1962, Glen L. Bachelder Aug 1963

Federal – Local Relations: A Case Study Of The City Of Kalamazoo In 1962, Glen L. Bachelder

Masters Theses

Purpose and Scope

It is the purpose of this paper to study the impact of federal government aid on Kalamazoo, Michigan in 1962. As a setting for the case study information, the development of federal aid programs as they affect municipal governments in the United States will be explored. The case study approach was selected since the bulk of material now available on the subject deals with the programs as viewed from the National Government level or as applied to the fifty states. Thus the idea of a detailed look at just one city as a recipient of federal aid …


A Modified Procedure For The Quantitative Determination Of Fluoride And The Application Of This Procedure To A Fluoride Balance Study In Children, Beatrice Shuang Wu Aug 1963

A Modified Procedure For The Quantitative Determination Of Fluoride And The Application Of This Procedure To A Fluoride Balance Study In Children, Beatrice Shuang Wu

Masters Theses

Introduction

This research problem was done in connection with the fluoride balance studies on twelve children at Plymouth State Home. The retention balance studies of fluoride by children can be studied indirectly by measuring the amounts of fluoride excreted in the urine and feces after administration of the fluoride in water or in vitamins as sodium fluoride. The fluoride balance study was repeated, because in the previous study (19), there were no samples collected for a base day in which the fluoride was not given. The previous data also indicated that fluoride retention was merely a function of the interval …


Development Of A Two Channel Counter For Measurement Of Faraday Rotations, Donald R. Flach Aug 1963

Development Of A Two Channel Counter For Measurement Of Faraday Rotations, Donald R. Flach

Masters Theses

Chapter I

Introduction

The rotation of the plane of polarization of plane polarized light when it passes through a substance in a direction parallel to an applied magnetic field is known as the Faraday effect and was discovered by Michael Faraday in 1845.1 It was found by experimentation that the amount of rotation of the plane of polarization was represented by the equation:

Θ = VH1 cos A

where H = magnetic field in gauss, 1 = simple path length in centimeters, A is the angle between the magnetic field and the direction of the light, and V is …
