Iowa Basic Skills Test, William Coffman

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

'"As a professional in this business of testmaking, I am much more aware of the limitations of testing than most laymen.

Acetate Peels From Iowa Carbonate Rocks, Wayne I. Anderson, Mary Hogan

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

Iowa's rock record is noted for its abundance of carbonate rocks. These carbonate rocks, limestones and dolomites, contain interesting textural features and an abundance of fossils. The fossils can often be removed from the rock matrix and studied. The fossils can also be studied in cut and polished slabs of rock or by making thin sections of the rock. Thin sections are prepared by cutting a thin slice from the rock and gluing the slice on a glass slide. The rock slice is then ground-down with abrasives to a thickness of .030 mm., covered with a coverslip, and studied with …

Energy Education Materials For Elementary School, Marcia Keizer Fraser

All Master's Theses

The materials created introduce intermediate elementary level children to a selected basic energy vocabulary and to concepts of energy-environment inter-relations. The approach is multi-dimensional, employing a slide tape presentation, posters, charts, and vocabulary cards. Energy concepts and vocabulary are repeated through the various media forms as a means to reinforce learning. The content tone is deliberately positive so that in the process of gaining knowledge about energy issues, children will feel successful, encouraging further achievement in the area of energy education.
