Teaching Aids In Mathematics, Sandra Lee Sawyer
Teaching Aids In Mathematics, Sandra Lee Sawyer
Honors Theses
For many years, mathematics classes have had a traditional aura about them. The textbook has been the major source of material. The typical lesson consists of review assignments discussed in class, presentation of the new material usually by the teacher, some applications of these new concepts, and a homework assignment for the next day. This routine is repeated from day to day, term to term. The students are acting merely as machines. The teachers ask questions, and the students answer from memory. This is one of the main reasons why there is a lack of understanding in mathematics classes.

Physical Education For Today's Youth, Susan Ann Todd
Physical Education For Today's Youth, Susan Ann Todd
Honors Theses
I have dealt with the future trends in health and physical curricula and the problems young people face in physical education today. Each adult had their own ideal of recreation in their time of youth, but today's youth has a will and wisdom all its own. Thus, they must be permitted to see health and recreation in the future as something to look forward to. We must work to make this possible.

A Study Of A Student Oriented Effort To Rehabilitate A Small Delta Town, Patricia Merry Stipek
A Study Of A Student Oriented Effort To Rehabilitate A Small Delta Town, Patricia Merry Stipek
OBU Graduate Theses
Mitchellville, Arkansas, a rural community of 150 displaced farm families in Desha County, is a relic of the agricultural past. The unskilled laborers pursue vocations of cotton chopping and cotton picking with little success. Vocational skills required in an urban society are sorely lacking. Affluence is nonexistent.
Governmental and private agencies are emphasizing the need of education for the citizens of the United States. The citizen of Mitchellville has been deprived of an adequate education. Even the basic skills of reading, writing, and arithmetic are minimal.
Other areas where great need is reflected are recreation, health, housing, and employment. Mitchellville …

The Current Use Of Choral Church Music In Higher Education In Arkansas, Edwin Lee Rettstatt
OBU Graduate Theses
The purpose of this study were: (1) to survey the current use of choral church music in the music curricula of institutions of higher learning in Arkansas; and (2) to determine its influence and extent of use by the faculties of these schools during the 1965-1966 academic yer. In recent years there has been increased production of choral church music and some has or will be used in higher education. Because there is little evidence of investigation in this area with special thought to choral church music, a need was felt to take consideration of the subject.

Teaching The Culturally Deprived, April Dunham
Teaching The Culturally Deprived, April Dunham
Honors Theses
In our swiftly changing society there are new terms emerging everyday. One such term is "culturally disadvantaged child." It has only been within the past few years that Americans have begun to recognize the urgency and complexity of the problem in educating disadvantaged children.
The designation of cultural deprivation should not be equated with any particular ethnic group, but should be defined in terms of characteristics of the individual and/or the characteristics of his environment. The disadvantaged child comes from a family with an annual income of less than $3000. There exists a high level of unemployment forcing a reliance …

Creativity And The Creative Teacher, April Dunham
Creativity And The Creative Teacher, April Dunham
Honors Theses
Studies show that all children start life with a creative spark, but by the time they get to the fourth grade it is knocked out of them. This is because our schools and society as a whole tend to teach children to conform. They are expected to be just like everyone else. They are all taught to act alike, dress alike, learn alike, think alike, and on and on. Children soon learn which are the safest paths in life to follow. Soon they have hidden their creative potential so deep in never finds its way out again.

A Survey Of Educational Literature, April Dunham Lane
A Survey Of Educational Literature, April Dunham Lane
Honors Theses
There is much literature being written today pertaining to the field of education. I feel that by reading this literature a perspective teacher can gain great insight into the profession of teaching. The problem today is that few people have enough time to read. Much of the valuable literature goes to waste sitting on a shelf.
I decided that for my special studies project I would read some books and see what I could learn. I feel that I have gained a lot from reading these six books. I have developed many new ideas which I think will be useful …

Mathematics Teaching In The Secondary Schools, Gail Ray
Mathematics Teaching In The Secondary Schools, Gail Ray
Honors Theses
Thesis: What are the rewards of teaching mathematics in the high schools?
As to the rewards in teaching mathematics on the secondary level, one must not look totally at salaries and fringe benefits, for these are very limited in comparison with other mathematical professions. One could easily become a computer programmer and double the salary he received as a teacher.
Special Education, Lynda Bearden
Special Education, Lynda Bearden
Honors Theses
One of the foundations of our present educational system in the United States is that of providing an education for all children. This principle has led to the concept of special education, a program of instruction specifically designed for special children--usually children who deviate from the normal to such an extent that a regular education program would be impractical and/or impossible.
School programs of education for special children are receiving increased emphasis. The special education programs in most states have doubled or redoubled in the past two decades. The basic, goading force behind recent developments has been the insistent parents …
A Glance At The Showmanship Of Physics, John E. Savage
A Glance At The Showmanship Of Physics, John E. Savage
Honors Theses
"Teachers should present dramatic demonstrations of scientific principles and involve students in them. They should dispense fewer facts, ask more questions, and stir the intellect. Then the students will puzzle out the answers and remember them," says Professor Julius Sumner Miller of El Camino College in Southern California. "Remember this! If you're dead, and the text book is dead, you'll have dead students."
The classic example of the intellect being stirred by dramatic demonstrations took place in London when Sir Humphrey Davey gave the Christmas Lectures. Believe it or not, people paid to hear these lectures dealing with natural· physical …
