Testing An Earth-Science Aid, Florence Black Jan 1967

Testing An Earth-Science Aid, Florence Black

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

Making a collection is not always considered an erudite use of laboratory time. It has been said that study of rocks, for example, entails a good deal more than discovering that a specific specimen can be assigned a specific name. This is freely admitted to be true, but this writer has discovered that assigning the proper name to a specimen demands a more careful and memorable examination of discriminating details of rock types, for example, and that it leads to a useful familiarity with variations of a single rock type.

Higher Education In 1980, Richard M. Harbeck Jan 1967

Higher Education In 1980, Richard M. Harbeck

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

Any reasonable prediction of future changes in higher education must necessarily be based on observations and interpretations of what is taking place today in society in general and in education in particular. The following observations provide some of the rationale for points to be made later.

When colleagues find that I am a member of the Commission on Undergraduate Education in the Biological Sciences (CUEBS) they invariably have one or more questions about the organization. How did it all start? Is anything happening? Where will it all end? The purpose of this paper is to assess these questions.

Dynamic Observation Of Cells, James Hungerford

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

If you are tired of "dry lab" investigations you are looking for better laboratory procedures and if you are interested in trying to let the student inquire, figure and question the problem as well as the answer, this report will inform you of another aspect of the inquiry method of learning.


Testing Frequency And Junior High Students, Lynn W. Glass Jan 1967

Testing Frequency And Junior High Students, Lynn W. Glass

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

As a matter of habit I have always given a twelve to fifteen question quiz to my junior high life science students every five to seven classroom days. This was always done on the untested assumption that a more frequent test versus a test given after three to four weeks of study would tend to motivate the student, serve as a learning device, and lessen the amount of cramming and test anxiety experienced by the student.
