A series of short articles describe a method of combined developing/fixing for monochrome film, techniques for thin layer chromatography, experiments with lasers, and safety precautions to be used with lasers in school laboratories. (AL)

Describes an experimental design using a control group with pre- and post-testing to determine the effectiveness of the project materials for seventh grade students. After controlling for differences in group IQ and reading achievement, the experimental group scored significantly higher in achievement and positive attitudes. (DF)

Increasing physics enrollment is attributed to student interest in the course that is conducted in an informal atmosphere. Emphasis is placed on laboratory experience with open-ended experiments and problem sessions conducted with small groups. Group instruction and optional research in selected scientific areas are also included. (DF)

Field trips are useful learning experiences if planned properly. Every area offers some places where meaningful learning can take place. (PS)

Descirbes a school district's recycling program of aluminum lunch trays that are collected after their use. The trays are used as scrap metal in industrial education workshop and used for sand castings. (PS)

Role playing in the biology classroom can lead to serious discussions, independent study, and better understanding of various scientific and sociological problems. With adequate planning and sufficient time given to students for preparation, this activity can be a good learning experience. (PS)

The primary goal is to explain the theory, and further, to expand a scheme of instruction and classroom procedures that arise as a consequence of his theory. Whenever possible, these ideas will be put forth using examples in physics context in an effort to elucidate difficult ideas. (DF)

Data were collected from forty-two schools to obtain background information on teachers, to guide the teachers in recording daily classroom activities, and to establish procedures for the visit by the investigators. (DF)
