Discusses aspects of the English teacher's task in helping students deal with the problem of continuity within change" through experiences with literature; a keynote address given at annual conference of National Association for the Teaching of English (7th, University of Exeter, England, April 10-13, 1970). (Author/RD)

Paper presented at the Summer Meeting of the Alexander Graham Bell Association for the Deaf held in Philadelphia, June 24-27, 1970. Discussed are concepts of curriculum development, cognitive development, and educational methods with implications for the handicapped. (CB)

Distinguishes between problems" and exercises" in science teaching, and disscusses the use and abuse of problem-solving in physics instruction. Suggests that the essence of problem-solving is the element of creativity and challenge. The implications of this idea for science teaching is discussed. Bibliography. (LC)

Discussed are generalizations and problem solving, unsound uses of generalizations, generalization as data, and student discovery of generalizations. (CT)

An algebra in which the basic operations correspond to lowest common multiple and greatest common factor is developed through questions which can be explored by the able high school mathematics student. (FL)

Argues that the traditional chemistry laboratory manual is not inherently a cookbook and the modern course manual does not automatically eliminate the cookbook approach. Suggests that it is the nature of the teacher guidance that students receive before, after, and during the laboratory work that makes a chemistry program meaningful and effective.…

This article presents a review of the experimental studies that have been conducted to determine the effectiveness of discovery learning as compared to expository learning in science and mathematics. The limitations of these studies are noted and some suggestions for future research are proposed by the author, who is an assistant professor of…

The material is designed to help pupils investigate how the value for slope in the equation of a line affects the inclination for the graph of an equation. A program written in BASIC designed to run on an Apple microcomputer is included. Worksheet masters for duplication are provided. (MP)

Dialog from a filmed lesson that uses graphing to explain positive and negative numbers is presented. The material highlights the responses of children. The work was also presented to a class of low, mixed-ability pupils since the filming, and the work of two pupils from this group is noted. (MP)

Details are given of a university course that utilizes computer programing to help students explore aspects of number theory. The course is thought to provide acceleration of the discovery process to the point where pupils can study a full range of topics. (MP)
