Incomplete Neurological Development As A Root Of Reading Problems: A Classroom Teacher's Approach, Helen B. Prokes
Incomplete Neurological Development As A Root Of Reading Problems: A Classroom Teacher's Approach, Helen B. Prokes
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Incomplete neurological development as a root of reading problems is a concept that could revolutionize our system of education. It could guide us to treating the “disease” rather than the symptoms. It could save us much “beating of the air” in our use of methods. It could modify our demands that learning take place in developmental infancy. At least, that is the theory of Dr. Carl H. Delacato2 and his associates in their Developmental Reading Program at Chestnut Hill Academy in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Their motivation stems from the conviction that “reading problems need not exist at all because they can …

A Comparison Of The Anxiety Measures And Match Performance Evaluations Of High School Wrestlers, Richard Edward Newman
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The purpose of this investigation was to determine if an individual high school wrestler’s anxiety measures would serve as an indicator of his match performance. The subjects were thirty-one varsity wrestlers who were in attendance at Brookings High School, Brookings, South Dakota, during the academic year 1966-1967. The top twenty-four wrestlers, as determined by weekly competitive challenge matches, received alternate forms of the IPAT 8-Parallel-Form Anxiety Battery forty minutes prior to the “A” and “B” teams’ competitive performances in all home wrestling matches. These tests were administered in order to measure the anxiety levels of subjects in a stress situation. …

Planned Educational Progress In The Mitchell Public School System, Donald Jesse Mclean
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
There is but one major purpose for the existence of the public schools in the American society. That purpose is to provide the best possible education for the nation’s children. Several elements are required to make this successful program a reality within a given community. The school board and administration must provide for at least three important ingredients, the first being a system of well-designed school buildings. The second is the employment of well- prepared teachers and the third is a well-planned curriculum. To accomplish a successful program it is necessary to continually evaluate all three areas. In doing so …

Effects Of Continuous Running As Compared To Interval Running On Cardiorespiratory Efficiency Of Conditioned Freshman Wrestlers At South Dakota State University, Terry J. Linander
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The purpose of this investigation was to determine whether a running program significantly influences the cardiorespiratory efficiency of conditioned wrestlers and to compare continuous running and interval running as methods of increasing the cardio-respiratory efficiency of conditioned wrestlers. Eighteen of the 19 members of the freshman wrestling squad at South Dakota State University, Spring Semester 1967, volunteered as subjects. The 18 subjects were divided into three equated groups, the results of a cardiorespiratory efficiency test being used as the equating factor. By employing the track pillbox method, the three equated groups were designated as the Interval Running Group (IR), and …

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of a selected resistance program on the improvement of arm-throwing strength and on selected items of the football passing performance. The following procedure was employed in this investigation. Twelve football players selected from the 1966 freshman and varsity football teams at South Dakota State University were employed as subjects. The subjects had a history of passing the football either on the high school level or during college competition. Two experimental groups were determined and equated from the results of the anterior and posterior muscular strength tests of the throwing arm. …

The purpose of this investigation was to determine the development of basketball shooting accuracy as affected by varying goal sizes. Thirty-seven male freshman students at South Dakota State University were divided into three experimental groups and a control group. The subjects in the experimental groups participated in a five-week training program wherein they shot baskets either at an accuracy rim, a regulation basket, or a combination of the regulation basket and the accuracy rim. All subjects were tested at the beginning of the investigation and at the completion of the training program. Shooting accuracy consisting of 55 shots attempted at …

The purpose of the study was to develop a test of fundamental locomotor movement for students enrolled in the modern dance classes at South Dakota State University. A five point rating scale was used to subjectively evaluate students who took the test. The writer devised a test of fundamental locomotor movement and conducted a pilot study. As a result of the first pilot study, certain changes were necessary for successful administration of the test. A second test was devised using only locomotor movement in pattern combinations. A second pilot study was conducted. As a result of the second pilot study, …
An Investigation Of The Ability Of An Individual To Perceive The Needs Of Others In A Group Setting, Herbert L. Notch
An Investigation Of The Ability Of An Individual To Perceive The Needs Of Others In A Group Setting, Herbert L. Notch
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The study of group dynamics has always been fascinated to those interested in a group setting. While much as been done in this area, a still larger amount of knowledge lies un-sorted and mysterious in the realm of group behavior. When, and specifically, when one who transmits enthusiasm and a guiding hand to a group, attempts to understand its workings, dynamics enter the group. A group has been defined as the meeting of a number of people and their subsequent interaction1. Admittedly, social interaction does take place in a group, if the above definition is accepted. This interaction has to …
A Study Of Seventh And Eighth Grade Home Economics Programs In South Dakota With Implications For Curriculum Development, Lacquita Olson Wagner
A Study Of Seventh And Eighth Grade Home Economics Programs In South Dakota With Implications For Curriculum Development, Lacquita Olson Wagner
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
One of the basic requirements of curriculum building is a clear and concise understanding of social, economic and technological developments which influence the American way of life. In fact curriculum revision is needed because of these rapid changes which are often so rapid that the educator has difficultly interpreting their implications. A first step in curriculum reorganization according to Trump and Baynham involves an analysis of what is being tought and studied by students.9 It was with this thought in mind that the writer developed a questionnaire which was sent to teachers in the public schools teaching homemaking in the …

Cooperative Vocational Schools For South Dakota, Nicholas George Debilzan
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The relative importance of this study is characterized by the following pertinent considerations: (1) the inability of communities to absorb unskilled labor, (2) the lack of salable skills of the high school graduates, (3) the prohibitive cost of providing vocational education on the necessary level to develop adequate skills, (4) the school drop-out problem, (5) the limited vocational education provided by the smaller school, (6) the industrial opportunities that can be provided by the larger cities of the state and (7) the need for a practical method of creating the necessary school entity. The economic make-up of the communities within …

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 …
