An Analytic Study Of Eight-Grade Pupil Performance As Revealed Through The Stanford Achievement Test In Arithmetic, Dominic J. Brungardt
An Analytic Study Of Eight-Grade Pupil Performance As Revealed Through The Stanford Achievement Test In Arithmetic, Dominic J. Brungardt
Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice
The immediate purpose of the study were: (a) to determine how closely the grade equivalents of two-hundred and sixty pupils follow the normal curve ; (b) to plot the results of the one-step problems on a graph with an analytic explanation of the graph ; (c) to place the results of the two-step problems on a graph with an analytic explanation of the graph; to determine what types of error were most prevalent; to discover apparent causes of error ; (d) to make suggestions helpful to teachers for improving pupil achievement.
Arithmetical Vocabulary : A Factor In Verbal Problem Solving In Sixth Grade Arithmetic, Ernest A. Hoopes
Arithmetical Vocabulary : A Factor In Verbal Problem Solving In Sixth Grade Arithmetic, Ernest A. Hoopes
Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice
During the writer's experience of teaching in elementary and junior high schools in Kansas he had excellent opportunity through supervision and classroom teaching to note a more-than-ordinary difficulty experienced by most children in the subject of arithmetic. Not only was the dull student baffled by the subject but many times the average and good students were "lost" when certain problems were presented. The exceptional. troublesomeness of this subject led the writer to ponder on the possible cause or causes of incorrect problem solving. One thing was apparent from observation and this was that many children seemed to lack a readiness …
A Research In Sixth Grade Children's Solution Of Verbal Arithmetic Problems, Herbert Schroder
A Research In Sixth Grade Children's Solution Of Verbal Arithmetic Problems, Herbert Schroder
Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice
The purpose of this research in sixth grade children's solution of verbal problems in arithmetic is to investigate the mental processes that lie back of pupils' answers in arithmetic. That is, how do pupils solve verbal problems in arithmetic? The investigation involves several related problems such as; to what extent is the pupils' method of solution influenced by irrelevant data, cues, details, and numbers used in a problem?
The Unit Plan Versus The Textbook Plan Of Teaching Arithmetic To Seventh And Eighth Grade Pupils, Arthur P. Harvey
The Unit Plan Versus The Textbook Plan Of Teaching Arithmetic To Seventh And Eighth Grade Pupils, Arthur P. Harvey
Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice
The present day trends in education seem to indicate the desirability of its becoming more and more a socialized education. This trend will no doubt have a more significant bearing on some subjects or studies in the school curriculum than on other subjects. The Kansas public elementary schools have recently adopted a Unit Program in School Studies, which includes history, civics, geography, science, and hygiene in an attempt to contribute better to the socialized idea. This Unit Program, however, does not make direct provision for English, spelling, arithmetic, and penmanship .Naturally, perhaps, comes the question to many teachers of why …
A Remedial Program In The Four Fundamental Operations In Decimal Fractions, Hallie Ruth Weber
A Remedial Program In The Four Fundamental Operations In Decimal Fractions, Hallie Ruth Weber
Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice
Can the results of the teaching of the four fundamental operations in arithmetic be improved? This is an important question that confronts most teachers of arithmetic. How can the teacher eliminate the difficulties which interfere with pupil progress, and reduce the number of failures in arithmetic? A group diagnostic test will show not only the level of ability of pupils in the various operations, but will point out weaknesses so that the teacher may organize her work in such a way as to give time to those who are below the standard and omit deadening drill for those who are …
