An Investigation Of The Relationships Among Various Language Skills Of Freshman English Students At South Dakota State College, Paul A. Elsner

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The primary objective of this study would be to determine the interrelationships of various language skills. For example, if one skill is more highly related at all others, we might suppose that is could be used as a “core” or pivotal area around which others would be taught. The minor objective of this study would be determine the degree of improvement among students in several skill areas. How much improvement was made? And in what areas did the students improve? However, it would probably be beyond the purpose of this study to offer adequate appraisals of the program.

The financial loss incurred by the condemnation of beef livers abscessed with Sphaerophorus necrophorus, has been described in many reports previous to this.

Wildlife Utilization Of Stock Ponds In Minnehaha County, South Dakota, James D. Swanson

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Introduction: Man’s agricultural activities in South Dakota have greatly altered environmental conditions for nearly all forms of wildlife.

Drainage of wetland areas changed once valuable wildlife habitat into drylands which are of little value to waterfowl and furbearers. Waterfowl breeding grounds have been so greatly reduced that few …
