Textbook Selection Process: An Historical Account Of The Steps Involved In Textbook Selection Guidelines For Washington State Public Schools, James D. Shannon
Textbook Selection Process: An Historical Account Of The Steps Involved In Textbook Selection Guidelines For Washington State Public Schools, James D. Shannon
All Graduate Projects
Local schools and school districts in the State of Washington have the responsibility for selecting textbooks to meet the district's philosophies, goals, and objectives as well as state regulations. To eliminate some of the problems inherent in this situation and to ensure more satisfactory results, this writer developed a procedure based on a committee approach, using a participatory decision making mode. Also, evaluative criteria and a rating tool were designed for use in screening, evaluating, and selecting textbooks. This project presents the steps used in the process.
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.
Objectives Of Animal Use In Biology Courses, William V. Mayer
Objectives Of Animal Use In Biology Courses, William V. Mayer
Education Collection
To confine discussion of educational use of animals to experimentation is to focus on only part of the animal use problem. To focus on use of animals in the classroom solely is to negate the value of field and community resource areas such as zoos, animal parks, nature trails, etc. The primary objective in dealing with living organisms is to inculcate a respect for all life. Objectives that focus on use of living animals for experimental purposes can, at best, be secondary and may in many cases be contrived. An understanding of animal life requirements and animal contributions is an …
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 …
No Pain Infliction By Untrained Youths, Christine Stevens
No Pain Infliction By Untrained Youths, Christine Stevens
Education Collection
Outlined are the efforts of the Animal Welfare Institute (AWl) for the last twenty-five years to end abuses to animals in high school biology programs. After concluding that the AWl's two brief rules prohibiting painful experimentation were not well understood by students even after years of effort, the AWl adopted the rules of the Canadian science fairs, which are similar to the Westinghouse Talent Search in that they simply prohibit experimentation on vertebrate animals. The presentation includes reference to the AWI manual, "Humane Biology Projects."
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 …

Design And Use Of A Computerized Test Generating Program, Edward Schaefer, Laurence A. Marschall
Physics and Astronomy Faculty Publications
An easy-to-use set of programs for the computerized generation of multiple-choice and easy examinations in an introductory astronomy course is described. The programs allow the user to establish files of test questions and to rapidly assemble printed copies of examinations suitable for photocopying. Written in ALGOL for a Burroughs B6700 computer, the programs can, in principle, be implemented on large mainframe computers or on microcomputers of a size increasingly available to physics departments. The advantages and costs of computerized test generation are discussed.

The Relationship Of Biorhythms To Academic Performance In Reading., Natalia Lavonne Brackin Peveto
The Relationship Of Biorhythms To Academic Performance In Reading., Natalia Lavonne Brackin Peveto
LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses
This study was an investigation to determine if a relationship existed between the twenty-three day physical, twenty-eight day emotional and the thirty-three day intellectual biorhythm cycles and academic achievement in reading. If a relationship existed between the learning potential of a student and the low, critical and high levels of the biorhythm cycles, instructional techniques could be designed to capitalize on the internal fluctuations of each learner. It was hypothesized that there would be a significant relationship between the academic performance of a student in reading and the high, low and critical positions of the twenty-three day physical, twenty-eight day …
