Playing With Poetry: Lessons Utilizing Creative Drama Techniques To Teach Poetry To Senior High School Students, John Brooks Lawton Jan 1990

Playing With Poetry: Lessons Utilizing Creative Drama Techniques To Teach Poetry To Senior High School Students, John Brooks Lawton

UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations

Although much has been written on the ways drama can be used in the English classroom, little has focused on the teaching of poetry using dramatic techniques. This paper provides a thirty-lesson creative drama unit for teaching poetry to high school students. The first three chapters introduce creative drama, review current research, and detail the background of the lessons. The bulk of the paper is contained in the fourth chapter, the lessons themselves. The early lessons introduce students to improvisation, poetry writing, spontaneity, and in-class performance. These skills are refined and used in later lessons to teach areas of poetry, …


Attitudes Of College Students Toward The World Food Crisis, Susan Ann Nartker Jan 1990

Attitudes Of College Students Toward The World Food Crisis, Susan Ann Nartker

UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations

In the fall of 1990, a survey was conducted to examine the attitudes of 79 college students toward the world food crisis. The findings from this study were then compared with the results from a study conducted in 1975 which examined the attitudes of 72 college students toward the world food crisis. The survey questionnaire constructed for the 1975 study was used in the 1990 study. In the 1990 study, only two categories showed significant change: (1) subjects felt less personally threatened by the food crisis than in 1975, and (2) respondents felt less sure that population control offered any …


Role Conflict Among Women Graduate Students: A Matter Of Gender, Nancy Lee Downey Jan 1990

Role Conflict Among Women Graduate Students: A Matter Of Gender, Nancy Lee Downey

UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations

This study explores ways in which women balance the demands of graduate school with other social roles and examines factors affecting role conflicts they encounter. Based on responses from a mail questionnaire, the survey describes experiences of 461 women graduate students at University of Nevada, Las Vegas in 1989. Moving beyond research that often considered only structural indicators as causes of role conflict, traditional and egalitarian gender ideologies within marriage are shown to have significant effect on wife-student role conflict. Various coping strategies are seen as indicators of role negotiating processes initiated by women in an effort to achieve personal …


The Relationship Between Test Anxiety And Academic Performance Of Untreated Test Anxious College Students, Joanmarie Christine Vlach-Kolesar Jan 1990

The Relationship Between Test Anxiety And Academic Performance Of Untreated Test Anxious College Students, Joanmarie Christine Vlach-Kolesar

UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations

The relationship between test anxiety and academic performance was determined for a sample of fifty-three college students. Classroom examination scores and measures of preterm and postterm self-reported anxiety were collected to test the basic assumptions: (a) that there is a relationship between test anxiety and academic performance; (b) that test anxiety has a debilitating effect on academic performance; (c) to investigate if academic performance changes for test anxious subjects without treatment; and (d) if untreated test anxiety will decline over the course of a semester. The results were consistent with general findings that there is a significant negative correlation between …


Those Barracks Babies, Marcia Baer Jan 1990

Those Barracks Babies, Marcia Baer

MSU Authors Collection

This is a book about how a group of folks, in a time long ago, living in a small Minnesota college town, celebrated life. It is a story of reflection. Reflection into the past when times and people were - shall we say - different. The people were veterans returning from the war, the time was the middle of the century-1947 through 1964. The place was Mankato State College in Southern Minnesota. This is the story of "The Barracks Babies." After you read these letters, look at the fading photographs, you'll know this is not the '90s. What makes these …

Can Drama Improve Student Performance In School?, William R. Peach Aug 1989

Can Drama Improve Student Performance In School?, William R. Peach

Abraham S. Fischler College of Education ETD Archive

The problem of the existence of a number of students exhibiting low self-esteem and unacceptable behavior in fourth and fifth grade was addressed by involving a representative sample of the students population in the production of a major musical show. The Piers-Harris Children’s Self-Concept Test (Ellen V. Piers and Dale B. Harris, 1969), an analysis of students’ effort and behavior grades before and after the production, and an analysis of numbers of instances of administrative/ guidance referrals was used to evaluate whether or not involvement in drama would produce improvement in student self-esteem. All students who signed up to audition …

Differential Perceptions In Auditing Terms, Pearl Tan, Hian Chye Koh, Aik Meng Low Jul 1989

Differential Perceptions In Auditing Terms, Pearl Tan, Hian Chye Koh, Aik Meng Low

Research Collection School Of Accountancy

This paper investigates the differences in the relative perceptions of auditing terms among groups of accountants, bankers and students. Perceptual models were constructed using multi-dimensional scaling and cluster analysis techniques. The models derived therefrom indicate that there are no major inter-group differences in the relative perceptions of auditing terms. This study does not therefore support the hypothesis that the “expectation gap” between users and preparers of the audit report are caused by semantical problems.
