The Programed Approach To The Teaching Of Remedial Grammar, Janice Slupe Kleen Jan 1967

The Programed Approach To The Teaching Of Remedial Grammar, Janice Slupe Kleen

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The primary purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of using a programed textbook and multiple tests in the teaching of remedial grammar at South Dakota State University. During the Fall Semester of 1965 and again during the Fall Semester of 1966, programing was used to help incoming freshmen deficient in English eliminate their major weaknesses in understanding grammar and in recognizing basic principles of usage and punctuation. In assessing the effectiveness of these presentations, the results of various testing instruments used in each presentation were studied. In addition, the study investigated the relationship between the scores on …


A Comparison Of The Social Criticism In Melville's Typee And Thoreau's Walden, Mary Riedy Jan 1967

A Comparison Of The Social Criticism In Melville's Typee And Thoreau's Walden, Mary Riedy

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Herman Melville and Henry David Thoreau are two of the most original American authors who appeared during the first half of the nineteenth century. Although the writings of both Melville and Thoreau have been examined extensively in scholarship, little has been done in the way of attempting a comparison of their work. In fact, Melville and Thoreau was an avowed member of the Transcendentalist movement, which Melville openly opposed.1 There are, indeed, many dissimilarities between the two writers. Thoreau belonged to the Concord group of authors, while Melville did not. Melville was primarily a novelist while Thoreau’s prose works were …

An Analysis And Evaluation Of Chemical Education Selected South Dakota Secondary Schools, Bernal A. Kiser Jan 1966

An Analysis And Evaluation Of Chemical Education Selected South Dakota Secondary Schools, Bernal A. Kiser

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

In the past fifty years, numerous achievements have been made in the science of chemistry. Such achievements have required changes, both in industrial chemistry and in the teaching of chemistry. Traditionally, beginning chemistry has been taught as a descriptive science. Even presently, many secondary schools, colleges, and universities, offer a factual course emphasizing the factual data rather than the basic principles. Although teaching chemistry descriptively has appeared adequate in the past, because of the extensive volume of knowledge available today, such a method of instruction seem questionable. More than ever before there seems to be a need for a logical …


A Procedure For Planning Production And Determination Of Inventory, Syed Khaja Kaleemuddin Jan 1966

A Procedure For Planning Production And Determination Of Inventory, Syed Khaja Kaleemuddin

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

At one time excess inventories were considered advantageous, but today they are regarded as the major cause of business failures. Most often, inventories deal the severest blow to the new entrepreneur because he cannot afford to have capital tied up in inventory during a seasonal slump. One of the factors that has aggravated the problem of inventories has been the trend towards product diversification in the past 25 years. Management of inventories is recognized today as one of the key responsibilities in achieving continuous and economical plant operation. Inventory dollars are no longer regarded as a drain on working capital; …

A Study And Analysis Of The Stochastic Model And Assumptions Used In Pert, Leon Burnell Ellwein

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

In recent years we have seen significant advances in technology. The present period has often been called the Age of Massive Engineering by many authorities. This high rate of advancement has been initiated and supported by the space race as well as the demands of industry. New technologies provide the backbone for new and complex development projects which in turn end up as management’s responsibility for administration. The importance of time and efficiency in controlling a project is at the top of management’s list. Many times the success of a project depends as much on the time of completion as …


Hydrologic Aspects Of Water Harvesting, Sidney W. Black Jan 1966

Hydrologic Aspects Of Water Harvesting, Sidney W. Black

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

As is most Midwestern states, livestock consumption, human consumption, irrigation, recreation, and wildlife are all in competition for the available water supplies in South Dakota. It is the purpose of this study to develop design criteria for a more efficient system of collection water to assist in satisfying the vast demands of livestock consumption. A moisture shortage can be the downfall of any livestock producer. There are roughly 728 million acres of rangeland in the continental United States with 26.7 million acres in South Dakota (18). Most of this area is available for domestic livestock grazing, but a large portion …


Dieldrin Residues In Eggs And Fat Of Penned Pheasant Hens, Donald Wayne Lamb Jan 1966

Dieldrin Residues In Eggs And Fat Of Penned Pheasant Hens, Donald Wayne Lamb

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

At present, there is considerable interest in the effects of insecticides upon our wildlife populations. It is well known that chlorinated hydrocarbon insecticides are present in tissues and eggs of birds that receive these chemicals in their diets. Some workers, for example Gene11y and Rudd (1956) and DeWitt (1956), studied the effects of different levels of ingested insecticides on the reproduction of game birds. Additional studies are needed to relate the amount of insecticide in the diet to the level in the egg and that in turn to reproduction and effects on young birds. Work on pheasants is of special …


Population Distribution And Mobility Of Deer In Eastern South Dakota, Rollin De Mers Sparrowe Jan 1966

Population Distribution And Mobility Of Deer In Eastern South Dakota, Rollin De Mers Sparrowe

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Population distribution and mobility of deer were studied intensively along a 15-mile stretch of the Big Sioux River, and less intensively on an expanse of 1400 square miles in central eastern South Dakota. Objectives were to determine relative population numbers and distribution of deer, the extent of their daily and seasonal movements, and the principal factors influencing these populations and movements, and to test winter hard counts as a population index. Deer were captured in Clover traps or with a Cap-Chur gun and were marked individually with ear tags, ear streamers, and collars. Some deer were tracked by radio telemetry. …
