Student Participation In Glen Allen High School, George Henry Moody Aug 1941

Student Participation In Glen Allen High School, George Henry Moody

Master's Theses

In this thesis I have attempted to give a brief review of certain forms of extra-curricular activities from the time of Plato to the present. I have stated from the principles on which student participation is based. The functioning of the program at Glen Allen High School is discussed with the hope that our experiences in this program will be of value to other who may attempt a similar program.


Providing Science Laboratory Equipment At Minimum Expense, James Ira Wood Aug 1941

Providing Science Laboratory Equipment At Minimum Expense, James Ira Wood

Master's Theses

The purpose of this report is to present plans and directions for laboratory apparatus, which may be built, by the instructor and pupils themselves from inexpensive materials. The report describes projects undertaken in approaching this problem in a particular school. It is not a complete laboratory manual. The equipment is not all that would be needed either in a course in general science or in physics. It is assumed that some laboratory supplies other than those made by pupils must be purchased, but many simple pieces of apparatus may be built in the classroom by the pupils with great economy. …


The Improvement Of Commercial Education In The Secondary Public Schools, Oscar Howard Parrish Jan 1941

The Improvement Of Commercial Education In The Secondary Public Schools, Oscar Howard Parrish

Master's Theses

The history of commercial education reveals that when business $subjects were first added to the secondary school curriculum, they were offered to students who were not interested in going to college or were financially unable to do so and to those who lacked the ability to pursue college courses. Principals were very anxious to show large enrollment figures and ready to admit new subjects it these subjects would help to keep boys and girls in school. It was believed that such subjects would better prepare students to secure and hold a job.

In many sections or the country the taxpayers …

The Existence Theorem Of Ordinary Differential Equations, Harris J. Dark Apr 1940

The Existence Theorem Of Ordinary Differential Equations, Harris J. Dark

Master's Theses

There are a great many devices for solving differential equations of certain special forms. But there is a large number of classes of differential equations that are not included in these special forms and cannot be integrated by quadratures or other purely elementary methods. When mathematicians were forced to abandon their cherished hope of finding a method for expressing the solution of every differential equation in terms of a finite number of known functions or their integrals they turned their attention to the question of whether a differential equation in general had a solution at all, and, if so, of …

Gauss' Hypergeometric Equation, William R. Smith Jun 1939

Gauss' Hypergeometric Equation, William R. Smith

Master's Theses

As early as the seventeenth century the English mathematician, john Wallis (1616-1703), used the term "hypergeometric" to describe a series which he was studying. This series, ∑(a)(a+b)(a+2b)…(a+n-1b), is quite different from the usual geometric series, hence the term, "hyper" (=above) plus "geometric," was used to signify that the series was of greater complexity than the geometric series. Wallis did not consider his series a power series or a function of x.

In 1769 this series received a remarkable development at the hands of Loonhard Euler who, following the example of Wallis, applied the word "hypergeometric" to it. He observed that …

Condensation Of Olefins With P-Mercapto-Diphenyl, Raymond Michael Abrams

Master's Theses

Markownikow's rule states that in the addition to unsaturated ,negative groups add to the carbon atom having the least number of Hydrogen atoms. It has been observed that mercaptans and hydrogen sulfide add to olefine contrary to Markownikow's rule in the presence of sodium alcoholates or sulfuric acid.
