Introducing The Biology Course In The Classroom, Roy L. Abbott

Science Bulletin

The success of any course in high school science often depends upon the interest aroused in it during the first days of its presentation. This interest is particularly easy to arouse in biology, chiefly, l suppose, because people are always interested in living things, or things that have been alive. Moreover, though he does not recognize it as such, nearly every pupil has considerable biological knowledge when he first comes to class, and it is this preliminary knowledge which can be made a strong entering wedge into his interest in the subject.

The Structure Of Matter, L. Begeman

Science Bulletin

At the present time, physical science recognizes the following divisions of matter: masses, molecules, atoms, electrons and protons. Matter appeals to us directly in the form of masses. We can readily sense a mass of water, a mass of air or a mass of iron; but it is quite different with the other divisions of matter. Molecules are so small that it takes about seventy billion billion of them laid side by side to extend through the length of one inch.

Misconceptions Concerning Respiration, C. W. Lantz

Science Bulletin

The respiration of plants is misunderstood by a large majority of the students who enter our general botany classes in college. This misunderstanding is about as common among students who have had biological training in high school as among those who have not. I am also convinced that a very large majority of people, in general, not excluding college graduates, have the wrong conception of plant respiration. It seems that there must be something wrong with the teaching of this subject in our schools.

A Bird Study Plan, Winifred Gilbert

Examination of the subject matter of the most commonly used general science texts in Iowa shows the topic of "bird life" to be meager or wholly lacking.

The Molecular Kinetic Theory, L. Begeman

Science Bulletin

Every teacher of elementary physics should have a thorough understanding of the molecular kinetic theory of matter since it is so indispensable in the explanation of various phenomena in physical science. One might even divide contemporary elementary physics into three divisions, viz: mass physics, molecular physics and electronic physics.

The Open Season For Teachers: An Editorial

Science Bulletin

The next three months arc anxious ones among our teachers. Some are seeking advancement; others are hoping for re-election; and many are looking for their first school. Chance will play an important part in many cases. The "influential third party" will land positions for some. But for most applicants desirable qualifications will be the largest factor.

Professional Growth, R. W. Getchell

Science Bulletin

An official in a small school system was discussing the requirements for a good teacher. "We prefer teachers," he said, "who will outgrow their position in our school." What greater challenge to professional growth could be offered to a teacher in service?

Improved Methods In Science Teaching, Louise Hearst

Science Bulletin

Pasteur has said that "in our century science is the soul of the prosperity of nations and the living source of all progress." Teachers of this important branch of knowledge, then, should carefully consider the methods of instruction in the science departments of our secondary schools. As these methods vary considerably, no general criticism of them will be attempted here. However there are certain fundamentals that merit attention, and in this paper we will examine three of them.

Measuring The Stars, W. H. Kadesch

Science Bulletin

Walking out on any clear and moonless night, one is thrilled at the sight of the seeming myriad of twinkling stars. To the artistically inclined, there is beauty and majesty, to the philosophically minded, food for speculation. ·where a r e these stars, what are they, whence come they, and ·whither do they go? Are they unchangeable through the aeons or do they progress through youth, maturity, old age, and finally into stellar death and oblivion? We ca n follow briefly only one or two of these speculations in these few short paragraphs.

Plant Study In General Science, C. W. Lantz

Science Bulletin

The general science course in most high schools is conspicuous by its lack of plant study. Usually there is a brief study of micro-organisms, but the higher plant is often completely ignored. Why is this? Is it because the subject matter of plant study is of a special nature and is not of general importance? Ts it because plant study is not of interest and cannot be adapted to beginners in high school? Perchance it is because most of our general science textbooks have been written by physicists and chemists.

Editorial

Science Bulletin

Scientific standardization, both of materials and labor, is one of the most outstanding developments of the last decade in the industrial world. Apparently the last group of people to apply this method to their own problems are the very ones who originated the principle. We refer to the scientists and especially to the teachers of science. Our study of the science course offered in secondary schools and our experience with college students in science emphasize the entire lack of uniformity among high school science courses.
