This study investigates factors which may adversely affect the technical education of Hispanic bilinguals. Hispanic bilingual students (N=36) majoring in science or engineering at the University of Massachusetts were given a variety of exams in both English and Spanish aimed at ascertaining the level of certain mathematically related skills. An…

RESEARCH STUDIES RELATED TO TEACHING AND LEARNING SCIENCE AT THE ELEMENTARY, SECONDARY, AND COLLEGE LEVELS ARE REVIEWED. STUDIES REPORTED WERE COMPLETED BETWEEN JULY 1957 AND JULY 1959. A GENERAL SUMMARY OF SIMILAR STUDIES ON EACH OF THESE THREE LEVELS IS PRESENTED. SELECTED ABSTRACTS ARE INCLUDED AND CONSIST OF A STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM, AN…

These materials were designed to be used by life science students for instruction in the application of physical theory to ecosystem operation. Most modules contain computer programs which are built around a particular application of a physical process. Thermoregulation is defined as the ability of an organism to modify its body temperature. This…

Students of advanced life science courses at Beverly Hills High School, California, are able to approximate a wide variety of life process experiments through use of computer simulations. Students are taught to use the BASIC language and to execute programs on the Hewlett-Packard 2000 Access series. Computer programs are used to enhance…

A study was conducted to test and compare the effects of a group-paced, multimedia, non-lecture method and a traditional lecture method of instruction in General Biology, and to determine if the type of evaluation used influenced a student's chances of successfully completing the course. Subjects were 308 students enrolling in General Biology…

Describes a laboratory exercise designed to introduce students to the Pourbaix diagram for cobalt. Discusses the use of a Pourbaix diagram as a potential-pH plot which displays some of the most thermodynamically stable species for a given element. Outlines a laboratory demonstration and a student investigation. (TW)
