Home Economics Teachers’ Perceptions Of What Is Being Taught Compared With Parents’ And Agency Representatives’ Perceptions Of What Should Be Taught, Kendra L. Vance

Department of Agricultural Leadership, Education, and Communication: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

The purpose of this study was to determine what home economics teachers perceive they are teaching and compare their perceptions with what parents and social service agency representatives in economically depressed counties perceived students should be taught. In 1986, Johnson determined parents' and social service agency representatives' perceptions of the importance of home economics concepts for high school students. In March 1987, a questionnaire, adapted from Johnson's Nebraska Home Economics Needs Assessment questionnaire, was mailed to 50 high school home economics teachers from 41 economically depressed counties throughout Nebraska. Half of the teachers (project teachers) had assisted in data collection …

Pressure Gasoline And Pressure Kerosene Stoves, A. E. Baragar Aug 1942

Pressure Gasoline And Pressure Kerosene Stoves, A. E. Baragar

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars

There are people who believe that pressure gasoline and pressure kerosene stoves are dangerous cooking appliances to use in the home. Possibly this opinion is, in some instances, justified. Nevertheless, these stoves deserve careful consideration because: they are much more efficient than the ordinary gravity flow kerosene stove; they have insulated ovens; they often have a good temperature indicator, and, what is most important, they cook and bake rapidly. The important factors to consider when either purchasing or operating a stove of this type are safety, construction, and performance.

Fifty Years Of Achievement In Agricultural Investigation, R. T. Prescott

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars

In Nebraska, a hustling frontier state in 1887, the legislature hesitated not at all in taking advantage of the provisions of the Hatch Act, and now that fifty years have elapsed since the Station was founded, seventy-five years since the Land Grant College Act was passed and the U. S. Department of Agriculture established, and almost twenty-five years since the Agricultural Extension Service was added, it seems worth while to present a general summary of achievement within the state. The main object will be to show some of the important things that have been learned through the investigations of the …

The circular is based on the recent Research Bulletin 68, of the Nebraska Experiment Station, to which the reader who is concerned with experimental procedure is referred.
