A Study In The Use Of An Inductive-Deductive Audio-Lingual Approach To Teaching Standard English Usage, Douglas Delano Patterson

All Master's Theses

If an aspect of the English teacher's job is to teach the non-standard speaker a different language (in part, at least), perhaps teachers should examine the process through which the child first learns his language. It would seem logical that this same process be followed as nearly as possible in training the non-standard speaker to speak standard English.

An Extension Of The Reinforcement Contiguity Issue – The Effect Of Retention In The Goal Box After Reinforcement, Marilyn L. Grey

All Master's Theses

This study investigated one prediction of Guthrie's theory of learning (1936, 1952)--that retention in the goal box after reinforcement increases the likelihood of incompatible responses to the goal stimuli and, thus, decreases learning. Three measures of learning were used: number of trials to criterion, total number of correct trials in the first twenty trials, and number of subjects who met criterion of five successive correct responses within forty trials.

An Evaluative Study Of Teacher-Directed And Student-Directed Methods Of Teaching The Metric System, Ronald E. Kerby

Graduate Student Research Papers

Many teachers in their formative years have a balance between their academic subject field and methods of lesson presentation, but are still in doubt at times of which method presents a certain idea or concept best.

Regardless of the experiences provided, a need arises for the individual to experiment and to determine through experimental research whether his instruction is reaching the majority of his students. If research seems to point out that many of the teacher's students are not benefiting from …
