A study of the relationship between the elementary science study unit attribute games and problems and the development of divergent-productive thinking in selected elementary school children

Creator:: Huntsberger, John Paul
Abstract:: 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...
