The Impact Of Federal Regulations On The Small Coal Mine In Appalachia, Bernard Davis
The Impact Of Federal Regulations On The Small Coal Mine In Appalachia, Bernard Davis
Faculty Research at Morehead State University
The study addresses two specific issues influencing the production of coal from small mines: 1) the direct costs and other effects of government regulation and deregulation on coal operators in general, and 2) the effects of governmental policies on the productivity by size (tonnage) class of small coal mines. Appalachian Kentucky was used as the study area because of the wide range of mine firm sizes.

The term "faculty development" has been defined by Jerry G. Gaff as "enhancing the talents, expanding the interests, improving the competence and otherwise facilitating the professional and personal growth of faculty, particularly in their role as instructor." Indeed, faculty development programs in the 1970s have shifted from traditional practices of professional renewal, such as faculty exchanges and research and travel grants, to a new focus on the individual faculty member and the issues he or she confronts as teacher. The attempt to assist faculty members in improving the quality of teaching and learning at Indiana University Northwest, an urban, commuter …

Perceptions Of Vocational Agriculture Instructors Regarding Knowledge And Importance Of Including Selected Agricultural Mechanics Units In The Vocational Agriculture Programs, Dale C. Heimgartener, Richard M. Foster
Department of Agricultural Leadership, Education, and Communication: Faculty Publications
The purpose of this study was to determine the importance of including specific units of instruction in agricultural mechanics as part of the vocational agriculture program as perceived by vocational agriculture instructors in five northwestern states.
The specific objectives of this study were to determine:
-
The amount of instructional time committed to agricultural mechanics in relation to other vocational agriculture instructional areas.
- Primary sources of preparation in agricultural mechanics for vocational agriculture instructors.
-
The importance of including selected agricultural mechanics areas in the vocational agriculture program.
-
The amount of instructor knowledge relating to instructional areas taught in agricultural mechanics.
The Lchthyofauna Of The Big Sandy River Basin, With Special Emphasis On The Levisa Fork Drainage, Jerry F. Howell Jr.
The Lchthyofauna Of The Big Sandy River Basin, With Special Emphasis On The Levisa Fork Drainage, Jerry F. Howell Jr.
Faculty Research at Morehead State University
A literature and regional repository review of the Big Sandy Basin ichthyofouno yielded 111 confirmed species, including 93 from Leviso Fork and its tributaries. Twenty-nine additional species were added to the lost published comprehensive review (Jenkins et al., 1972); one species was not re-confirmed. The 111 forms (108 confirmed or probable) included 14 known or suspected introductions and 20 species (including 12 recently collected from Leviso Fork) with special Kentucky Nature Preserves Commission status codes. The two most threatened Kentucky species were Percino macrocephala and Ammocrypto pellucido.

A Summary Of An Evaluation Of The First Year Of The Nebraska Vocational Agriculture Core Curriculum, Allen G. Blezek, Roy D. Dillon
Department of Agricultural Leadership, Education, and Communication: Faculty Publications
The Nebraska Vocational Agriculture Core Curriculum Project was a two-year project funded by the Nebraska State Board for Vocational Education. The first year of the project dealt with developing core curriculum materials for both teachers and students for the four-year Vocational Agriculture program.

An Analysis Of Population Changes In Eastern Kentucky 1970-2000, Gary C. Cox
An Analysis Of Population Changes In Eastern Kentucky 1970-2000, Gary C. Cox
Faculty Research at Morehead State University
Accurate population projections are essential for anyone engaged in long-range planning. Predicting future population trends any considerable distance into the future, however, is a notoriously risky undertaking. So many human variables are involved that all too frequently such projections make a mockery of the demographer's best efforts. Regardless of how sophisticated are the statistical models used, long-range population forcasting is statistical guessing with a fairly wide margin of error. Eastern Kentucky and Central Appalachia, in general, present an especially formidable challenge. Since the beginning of the 20th Century the economy of the region has been tied to one product, coal, …
Success And Failure In Tertiary Education, With Reference To School Attended : A Re-Examination, E. P. Otto
Success And Failure In Tertiary Education, With Reference To School Attended : A Re-Examination, E. P. Otto
Australian Journal of Teacher Education
The first part of this paper reviews the research evidence accumulated to date which bears on the question, "How useful is information about a student's secondary school for an assessment of his likelihood of succeeding in tertiary studies?" Knowledge of whether a student entering university or college comes from a State, Catholic or other Private school appears to be useful to personnel making admissions decisions. The differing academic performance of students from these three types of schools is largely, unrelated to faculty choice, tertiary entrance qualifications, aptitude and intelligence. The way a student approaches his University or college work seems …

Ldentificatlon .Of Factors Influencing Vocatlonal Agriculture Teachers To Leave Teaching, Roy D. Dillon
Department of Agricultural Leadership, Education, and Communication: Faculty Publications
This study was undertaken in an effort to obtain objective data in as nonthreatening a manner as possible concerning the reasons why teachers quit. The 26 former teachers interviewed openly discussed why they chose another occupation, and were willing to rank their reasons. The reasons given and their ranking generally support the present job held by the respondents, as three of the top five factors listed most often related to farming and ranching. Seventeen of the 25 respondents were in farming and ranching.
This study, as well as other studies reviewed, points toward the need for continual follow-up of graduates. …

An Analysis Of Selected Factors Influencing Use Of Time By Forty Vocational Agriculture Instructors In Nebraska, Roy D. Dillon
An Analysis Of Selected Factors Influencing Use Of Time By Forty Vocational Agriculture Instructors In Nebraska, Roy D. Dillon
Department of Agricultural Leadership, Education, and Communication: Faculty Publications
Forty teachers of vocational agriculture in Nebraska worked an average of 2,652 hours per year, or 221 hours per month. About one-third of their time was used for teaching agriculture day classes, 11% for supervising Future Farmers of America (FFA) activities, 8% for curriculum planning, and 6% for supervising occupational experience programs. These four duty categories accounted for 56% of the time of the teachers.
Of the five program-oriented variables studied and being reported, none had significant influence on mean hours worked per month for the 40 teachers. There were, however, several significant differences found among groups on the ANOVA …
