An Experimental Study Utilizing Integrated / Right Brain Processes In Teaching Biology, Rebecca M. Aulenbacher

Theses

The purpose of this study was to determine any measurable differences in student academic outcomes when they participated in activities designed to involve both hemispheres as compared to when they participated in activities designed to involve the left hemisphere . It was predicted that students who participated in more integrated/right brain activities would show higher academic achievement . It was further predicted that students who were right hemisphere preferenced would do better than those who were left hemisphere preferenced.

Two intact groups of Biology I students were taught the same four - chapter unit on cells , utilizing the same …

G87-838 Management Of Greenbugs In Sorghum (Revised May 1994), Robert J. Wright, Stephen D. Danielson, Zb Mayo

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

This NebGuide describes the identification, biology and management options for greenbugs in Nebraska sorghum.

The greenbug is the most important insect pest of grain and forage sorghums in Nebraska. Although numbers fluctuate from year to year, greenbugs are a limiting factor to sorghum yield in most years. Their management is complicated by the fact that greenbugs have been able to evolve populations capable of overcoming plant resistance and organophosphate insecticides, so best management practices continue to change over time.

Another common aphid found in sorghum is the corn leaf aphid. Corn leaf aphids are often mistaken for greenbugs; however, they …
