Exploring Childhood: Discovering Teens, Nancy Erickson
Exploring Childhood: Discovering Teens, Nancy Erickson
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
This is a study of a practicum-based child development curriculum for eighth grade students in a middle school setting. One hundred students were tested on self-image concepts and attitudes toward young children after they had been exposed to the curriculum. The experimental group was involved in the "Exploring Childhood" course which gave them experience in actual child care agencies in the community. The control group students used the more traditional child development unit in the home economics program.
Testing showed that the experimental group made significantly higher self-concept scores than the control group. There was no significant difference between the …
A Comparison Of Two Methods Of Teaching Drawing To High-School Students, Olive Wittman
A Comparison Of Two Methods Of Teaching Drawing To High-School Students, Olive Wittman
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
In order to gain some evidence as to what difference the use of some particular instructional methods would make, an experiment was carried out. The experiment reported in this study is an example of a small investigation which an in-service art teacher can make, along with his regular teaching. It compared the effects of two instructional methods or to different teacher behaviors, on the students, in teaching drawing. Two classes of students were taught drawing by the same instructor who deliberately modified the degree of "directiveness" used in his teaching. In the "directed" group the teacher employed a strict instructor-controlled …

A Guide To Teaching Materials For Industrial Arts, Russell Blowers

Several years teaching has brought the writer face to face with the problem of supplementary teaching materials. Knowing that complete listings of teaching aids for the teacher are not available, the writer determined to make available such a listing which would be most beneficial to the shop teachers.
The problem is fourfold:
- To catalogue industrial arts teaching aids.
- To determine the extent of the educational departments in the industrial …

A Health, Physical Education & Recreation Program For The Todd County Consolidated School, James Holpp
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
The purpose of this study is to outline an adequate, correlated program of health, physical education and recreation for the students of the Todd County Consolidated School of Elkton, Kentucky.

All our educational agencies are stressing the need for a unified, integrated, and functioning program of this type. This study makes an attempt to develop such a program in this one particular school.

A Suggested Course Of Study For The Teaching Of Speech In The Junior & Senior High Schools Of Kentucky, Charles Loudermilk
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
In the decade (1920-1930) that followed numerous textbooks as such appeared for the teacher of speech, and courses in public speaking were added to high school curriculums in many states.
In Kentucky, in 1929, the State Department of Public Education advised and urged the high schools to add this course to their curriculum and to encourage all students to take it. Many of the high schools established separate departments for this course; others added it to their courses in English. Nearly all the Smith-Hughes High Schools, which were established in 1917, require training in public speaking.

Education And Living: Volume 1, Ralph Borsodi
Education And Living: Volume 1, Ralph Borsodi
School of Living Documents
In Education and Living, a two-volume work, Borsodi elaborated the model of the School of Living. Most of volume one consists of a critique of “mis-education.” Most of that critique focuses on the problems of centralization; centralization of industry, the economy, politics and education. The second volume of Education and Living explains Borsodi’s vision of achieving decentralization in detail. The second volume is in two parts: Right-Education and Re-Education. It explains how to educate for the “Normal” human being and for achieving the “Normal” way of living. This is not the “normal” of the bell curve, the average of a …

The Status Of Handwriting Instruction And The Qualifications Of Teachers Of Handwriting In The Elementary And Secondary Schools Of Kentucky, Robert Ashby

The major reason for this survey was to secure definite facts and opinions from superintendents, principals and teachers in elementary and secondary schools on the subject of handwriting.

Typewriting, Shorthand, Business Correspondence, & Office Training In Secondary Schools & The Need For Correlation, Fannie Harrington
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
It is the purpose of this thesis to show the need for correlation of these subjects because they are so closely related. It may also bring about an awakening of commercial educators to the many things a typewriting teacher must teach and that other subjects are repetitions to a large degree of what the student has already been taught in typewriting.

Subject Combinations Of Kentucky High School Teachers, Clarence Emrick
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
Even though very good courses have been worked out for the numerous colleges of the state of Kentucky, there still remains a problem unanswered by the teacher-training institutions of the State. This problem is: What shall the prospective teacher be prepared to teach? and the question for the prospective teacher is: In what fields shall I prepare to teach?

Tests & Study Guides In Literature For Secondary Schools, Ida Nance
Tests & Study Guides In Literature For Secondary Schools, Ida Nance
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
When the time came to choose a thesis subject, I immediately said Objective Tests Applicable to Collateral Reading. Having been told "nothing has been done along that line - almost nothing at all," I decided to extend my investigations to include any and all tests in high-school literature - tests for comprehension and appreciation, survey and achievement tests, and tests designed for collateral reading. Each phase of the study has been interesting, but I fear that I have remained somewhat partial to the unit first begun and have perhaps given it a bit more consideration than the other divisions have …
Is Formal Grammar Necessary In The High School?, Edward Ray
Is Formal Grammar Necessary In The High School?, Edward Ray
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
This study does not attempt to decide which is the better method of presenting grammar to the high school pupil; that is a question which would require much more extensive research to answer. We are interested primarily in determining and evaluating the success in college formal grammar of students who have had formal grammar in high school as compared with the success of those who have not had high school formal grammar. The study, therefore, is an attempt to show the differences existing in preparation for college formal grammar on the part of the students who have had high school …
Is High School Chemistry A Preparation For College Chemistry, Mansfield Martin
Is High School Chemistry A Preparation For College Chemistry, Mansfield Martin
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
The subject of this study grew out of a desire to estimate the value of high school chemistry and its relation to college chemistry. The purpose is to bring about a better understanding of the necessity of a closer tie-up between different levels of our educational system. Life and growth are continuous processes, and, if education if life, we must make it a continuous experience. While limited because of incomplete records and changing classifications of our high schools, it is hoped that this study will lead to a further and more scientific study of related problems in this field.
