Presents several topics in color photography which can serve as an introduction of scientific concepts into the classroom, such as: photochemistry (energy transport), organic chemistry (dye formation), physics (nature of light), psychology (color perception), and engineering (isolation of different chemical processes within layers of the film).…

Provides information on how humans see color including sensitivity of the eye, spatial effects, and temporal effects, and relative to the characteristics of the human eye explains how color is measured. (GS)

Arguing that an artist using any new medium must understand its techniques and limitations, this master's thesis is intended to demystify state-of-the-art 3-D computer graphics through a discussion of the technical literature from the artist's point of view and an analysis of the curricular needs of the artist. The first of six chapters discusses…

The paper examines issues concerned with the education and employment of individuals, primarily males, with color vision deficiency. After a brief introduction, the first chapter looks at adult problems such as employment areas in which the disability presents problems. The next chapter considers problems of children, noting the heavy use of color…

Based on the notes of Hanns Strauss and his collection of 6,000 drawings by 2- to 7-year-olds, this book describes the stages of development of children's drawings by using the framework of Rudolf Steiner's "anthroposophical" science. In the introduction, the early development of children's drawing is compared with works of art left by…

A discussion of the prospects of widespread use of color television in England. (HB)

Results demonstrated that color affects females more than males but increases positive judgement of aesthetic value and overall quality of commericlas for both sexes.

Three classes of high school students participated in a four-day unit which focused on the dimensions of color and the psychological impact of color. (Author)

The project described demonstrated not only the feasibility of producing a holographic compound spherical beamspliter mirror with full color response, but the performance and color capabilities of such a beamsplitter when incorporated into a Pancake Window Display system as a replacement for the classical glass spherical beamsplitter. This…

Social thinkers in the United States do not recognize that technology is a result of conscious decisions that directly reflect the social order, and, therefore, have an impact upon American life that goes beyond the technological development itself. The decision by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in 1954 established standards for color…

Intended to serve as a primer for future investigators, this paper surveys and analyzes research studies published between 1945 and 1980 which focus on the effect(s) of color on human cognitive learning. The question of whether or not color as a variable in the design of instructional materials enhances learning has been approached by researchers…

As a learner-oriented approach, Gattegno's "Silent Way" has recently been receiving much attention in the teaching of English as a second language. Whereas the cognitive approach to the teaching of language deserves praise, an integral aspect of Gattegno's method includes the introduction of a 37-color alphabet, used in a one-to-one…

A review of the literature was made resulting in 41 references, 12 of which described research in applied experimental settings. Subjects in 10 of the 12 studies showed some improvement in performance as a result of using color in the displays. The decision as to whether a color or monochrome television system should be used appeared to be…
