Preparing Our Students For The Future, Mary Janela

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

Science education must advance with the times. Methods and ideas must change. We, as teachers, are being closely scrutinized. We can no longer sit back complacently. Since Sputnik, there has been grave concern over the ability of our students to apply knowledge to practical problems. Students are naturally curious so we must develop their inquiring minds and instill in them habits of sound reasoning, accurate judgment, and careful evaluation. To live in our democracy of the twentieth century the students must be trained to develop their powers of critical thinking.

What Is This Fuss About General Science?, Phillip E. Miller

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

With the advent of the superb Biological Sciences Curriculum Study (BSCS), Physical Sciences Study Committee (PSSC), Chemical Education Material Study (CHEM Study), and the Chemical Bond Approach (CBA) courses, secondary science teachers, at last, spend more of their efforts teaching instead of hacking up mediocre, out-dated texts and scrambling for up-to-date "supplementary" material that should have been the meat of the original "text".

Your Teen-Ager And The School Counselor: A Handbook For Parents, Donald Lee Bennink

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

Public Law 85-864 was signed by the President of the United States on September 2, 1958. This law, known as the National Defense Education Act (hereafter referred to as NDEA), is composed of ten titles affecting most levels and many phases of education. Its billion dollars, though authorized for a dozen separate programs, have been authorized for a single purpose - that every young person, from the day he first enters school, should have an opportunity to develop his gifts to the fullest. This is the emphasis that gives the Act its name, for it recognizes that in a free …

The Role Of The School Counselor As Viewed By Parents And Counselor-Educators, Donald Allen Fleming

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

Guidance in the public schools of the United States is a fairly recent development. The Vocational Bureau, established by Frank Parsons in 1909, represented one of the first organized efforts to supplement home guidance. Since that time the scope of guidance has expanded from vocational guidance to include educational and socio-personal guidance as well. With the rapid increase in guidance services in schools, research concerning the guidance program has not kept pace. Much of the information and material published is based on an inadequate background of research. Authors have speculated on the values and place of guidance, but have had …

The Development Of A Handbook For Use In The Selection Of Materials On Communism For Secondary Social Studies Classes, Richard Raymond Olmsted

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

Following World War Two, the United States and the Soviet Union became the chief rivals for world leadership. Because of this, communism replaced fascism as the totalitarian ideology of most concern to Americans. This new situation brought with it a series of problems for the public schools: Should secondary schools teach about communism? How should this topic be approached? What materials should be provided for use by high school students?

For a time, public hysteria prevented the logical resolution of these problems. George B. Bruntz describes this period in the following way:

There was a time when the mere mention …
