Acquisition of divergent-productive thinking skills by using
elementary science materials constitutes the basic idea of this experiment.
The data collected was used to determine statistically if
the materials had a significant role in inducing such skills.
The Ss were fifth-grade students obtained from two public elementary
schools in Oregon. Those...
This investigation was designed to determine whether or not the nonverbal behaviors of junior high and secondary school science students could be systematically analyzed. It was further determine what relationship exists between the nonverbal behaviors of students and their attitude. The hypotheses investigated were as follows: H₁: A valid and...
The study is designed to determine what differences exist between
the nonverbal as well as verbal behaviors and teacher-student
interaction patterns in selected CHEM Study and traditional chemistry
classes in Oregon. Analysis of behavior in these classes is in terms
of a new observation system developed by H. D. Schalock...
The purpose of the study was to survey aspects of environmental
knowledge and beliefs among Grade 10 students in Australia, in the
belief that such information would be useful for workers in the developing
field of environmental education there.
A survey instrument prepared and used for a similar purpose in...
Research was undertaken to describe the teaching and learning
of science in a non-Western village with particular attention paid to
cultural parameters. Cognitive elements in a Philippine (Tagalog)
village and school were analyzed.
The local language was studied for its capacity of transmitting
scientific information. Verbal interaction in the science...
The problem studied was to determine if there were any significant
differences (5% level) between control and experimental groups
of students using rapid batch processing and time-sharing computer
facilities in the study of elementary Fortran programming.
Students were randomly assigned to the control (batch processing)
and experimental (time-sharing) groups with...
This study was designed to identify those specific mathematics
computational and application skills, and combinations of mathematics
skills, which have a positive relationship to success in introductory
chemistry for community college students.
Additional areas of interest investigated, but secondary to the
main study, were the relationships between mathematical growth
shown...
