Something From Nothing, W. H. Kadesch

Science Bulletin

Matter made while you wait-hydrogen, helium, oxygen, iron or what will you have? No, it has not quite come to this! But the time-honored law of conservation which states that matter is neither destructible nor creatable is no longer accepted as unquestionably and universally true.

Fall And Winter Material In Animal Husbandry, H. Earl Rath

Science Bulletin

Swine are now going to market in large numbers. This offers an excellent opportunity to study market types as represented in the herd and compare them with the sows from which they were produced. If brood sows for spring litters have not all been selected, the teacher has some valuable work for pupils in selecting the better prospects from the available groups.

Some Suggestions For Winter Study Of Biology In High Schools, Roy L. Abbott Nov 1928

Some Suggestions For Winter Study Of Biology In High Schools, Roy L. Abbott

Science Bulletin

Considerable criticism has recently been directed against the commonly accepted methods of teaching Biology in our secondary school and colleges. John Burroughs once re- marked that he had never dissected an animal and was glad of it, implying by this, I take it, that we do not learn Nature by dissecting her children. Recently Wheeler of Harvard, has voiced a similar criticism by saying that our teaching of Biology is suffering from academic dry rot; that laboratory dissection of a dead animal gives the student a knowledge of the details of structure of that animal without giving any knowledge of, …

The Scientific Method, L. Begeman Nov 1928

The Scientific Method, L. Begeman

Science Bulletin

What is a perfect recitation? In the fifteenth chapter, page 201 of Dewey's "How We Think" will be found a statement of Herbart's formal steps of instruction. They have been designated as the five perfect steps of a recitation. As Dewey says, "These five steps have had greater and better influence on the 'hearing of lessons' than all other methods put together." Dewey further states "that the underlying notion of these steps is that no matter h ow subjects vary in scope and detail there is one and only one 'best' way of mastering them since there is a 'single …

The Beginning Course In High School Physics, L. Begeman Nov 1928

The Beginning Course In High School Physics, L. Begeman

Science Bulletin

All authorities on the teaching of physics are agreed that the beginning work of a class in high school physics should be distinctly concrete in nature. It should consist of such subject matter as will readily connect up with the acquired concepts of the student. It is best not to begin with the unfamiliar, abstruse concepts of force, motion and acceleration usually placed first in the high school text.

Some Suggestions For Fall Laboratory Work In Animal Husbandry, H. Earl Rath

Science Bulletin

Now that the seed corn is selected for next spring, and the frost has put an end to grasses and other outdoor crops, the agricultural instructor often feels that little outdoor material is available for further study. With this in mind I would like to present a laboratory exercise that will provide for some valuable outdoor work, and can be used as the basis for much classroom study as well.
