An Analysis Of The Attitudes Of Selected Public School Educators In Tennessee Toward Minimum Competency Testing, Judy A. Walters
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The problem was to determine whether significant relationships exist in the attitudes of eighth-grade teachers, their principals, and their superintendents toward minimum competency testing in Tennessee. Literature was reviewed in order to determine the problems associated with the implementation of a minimum competency testing program. Questionnaires were developed to obtain the attitudes of teachers, principals, and superintendents about the questions most often encountered in the literature. School systems to be surveyed were selected by stratified random sampling from defined pupil enrollment categories after the questionnaires were field tested. Superintendents from 36 public school systems were identified to receive questionnaires and …

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
The primary intent of this study was to ascertain the effectiveness of parents in the role of teaching nutrition to their children. This research endeavor was an extension of refinement of a three-year program in nutrition education in the Department of Family and Human Development at Utah State University. Fifty-seven children enrolled in the Child Development Laboratory at Utah State, and their parents were involved in the study. Eighteen children were taught nutrition by their mothers. Twenty-one children were taught nutrition by their mothers and fathers, and 18 children served as the control group and received no nutrition using an …

The Population-Food Squeeze: Education For Survival, N. Keith Roberts
Faculty Honor Lectures
One in every four people living on our planet goes to bed hungry each day, and many more survive on inadequate diets only to die prematurely. At the same time, many of the world's natural resources are producing food far below their potential. Almost 25 percent of the Earth's adult population are illiterate, and many more are severely deficient in basic educational skills.

Ec17-11-80 Nebraska Outdoor Education Series: Plant A Tree, Joe Range, John D. Orr
Ec17-11-80 Nebraska Outdoor Education Series: Plant A Tree, Joe Range, John D. Orr
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Not all trees or shrubs can find a home in your yard or apartment. Help your child to discover a home for the tree or shrub he or she grows or receives. The greatest benefit of this Plant-A-Tree project is being close to a living plant. This project will: introduce five tree planters - one from each area of Nebraska, discuss the parts of tree seeds, give examples of how tree seeds travel, discuss preparation of soil, demonstrate how to grow a seedling tree from seed, demonstrate how to transplant a tree, and offer suggestions for activities and exhibits.
Reverence For Life: An Ethic For High School Biology Curricula, George K. Russell
Reverence For Life: An Ethic For High School Biology Curricula, George K. Russell
Education Collection
Ethical and pedagogical arguments are presented against the use of animals by high school students in experiments causing pain/suffering/death of the animal. No justification is seen for such experimentation when perfectly valid alternatives, using noninvasive techniques, exist or could be developed. An important concern is the emotional and psychological growth of young people. An overall objective of high school biology curricula must be to assist students in making viable connections with living biological processes and the natural world.
Animals In British Schools: Legal And Practical Problems, Jennifer Remfry
Animals In British Schools: Legal And Practical Problems, Jennifer Remfry
Education Collection
Well-managed, healthy animals can be useful and beneficial aids to the emotional and intellectual development of young people at the primary and secondary levels of education. In Britain, vertebrate animals are not used in schools for experiments which might cause pain, distress or disease. The laws protecting animals are comprehensive but at present it is the Health and Safety at Work Act (1974) which is having the most impact on the keeping of animals in British schools. The practical skills most needed by teachers are in the handling, sexing and humane killing of animals. Training of teachers should include instruction …
Humaneness Supersedes Curiosity, F. Barbara Orlans
Humaneness Supersedes Curiosity, F. Barbara Orlans
Education Collection
Ethical considerations need to be addressed with respect to educational use of animals. Society extends greater latitude in what is permissible to do to an animal in the name of science to a professional research worker than to a high school student. A balance needs to be made of the significance of the expected experimental results, on the one hand, which the ethical costs, (in terms of pain or death to the animal), on the other. A reasonable boundary can be drawn, based on ethical as well as on practical considerations, to exclude invasive procedures on vertebrate animals in high …

Adult-Child Motor Performance Differences: A Developmental Perspective Of Control Processing Deficits., Jere Dee Gallagher
LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses
What the adult does during the intertrial interval that the child does not to process information was under investigation in this series of studies. Representative ages chosen due to a difference in the utilization of control processes were 5-, 7-, 11-, and 19-year olds. The initial study tested the initial availability of information to the subject prior to processing. The major question was detecting developmental differences in kinesthetic sensory store. Results indicated that the superior performance of the adults is not due to the initial availability of the information. The second study investigated the detriment to performance by increasing the …

A Film Analysis Of Motor Pattern Development Of Educable Mentally Retarded Children., Leonard Max Hill
LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses
The purpose of the study was to compare the standing long jump, place kick, overarm throw and striking patterns of educable mentally retarded children to the mature patterns of highly skilled individuals. It was also the purpose of this study to determine if these same motor patterns were inherent in educable mentally retarded subjects and to determine if these patterns would emerge naturally in a goal-centered teaching-learning environment. Eleven educable mentally retarded children between the ages of five and eight years were selected to participate in the study. The children participated in a one week (fifteen minutes per day) orientation …
