Legal Attitudes As Precursors Of Moral Development: A Developmental Study Of Perceptual Judgments About Criminal Severity., Susan Cohn Brustein

Student Work

A popular trend in American education is the process approach of teaching (Scott 1972). The proponents of this pedagogical,- style view factual learning as having little import in a society which changes radically over very short periods of time and further espouse that textbook learning merely perpetuates a built­ in obsolescence in our educational system. They have expressed the concern that children be given tools (behavioral strategies) which are relevant, not only in solving the daily problems they confront, but which they can later integrate to solve unforseen future crises. Van Til (1974) has insisted that curriculum be related to …

Results Of A Pre-Kindergarten Screening In The Papillion-La Vista School District, Susan Folkerts

Student Work

A child's language development is inextricably linked to his capabilities in other areas. A multitude of factors influence the child's ability to develop and use language. Auditory skills are the most obvious and the most important skills necessary for language comprehension. Auditory acuity, or rather, the lack of it, is probably the single most important determiner of whether a child will spontaneously develop language. Children who are deaf never hear spoken language, and have difficulty comprehending the subtleties of it, (Myklebust, 1964; Schmitt, 1969).

Student Work

Since the fall of 1970, an elective English program has been available for senior high students in the Omaha Public Schools.

A Feasibility Study Of The Proposed Reorganization Between The George Community School District And The Boyden-Hull Community School District In Iowa, Leroy S. Fugitt

Student Work

School district organization has never been regarded as static and permanent-as a sacred entity that should not be changed. Quite to the contrary, it has been looked upon as a governmental device through which people can work together in organizing, supporting, controlling, and operating their schools. When it serves its function well it has been satisfactory. When it has not been able to do the job for which it was created it has been modified. This position suggests that the examination of a school district to determine its adequacy is a desirable process. Considerable research has been done relative to …
