A Study of Certain Variabiles and their Implication in the Vocational Rehabilitation Training of Veteran Trainees (open access)

A Study of Certain Variabiles and their Implication in the Vocational Rehabilitation Training of Veteran Trainees

When one group of disabled individuals finishes their vocational rehabilitation training programs and another group, almost as large in number, fails to complete their courses one wonders whether there are significant differences in the two groups. The problem in this study is to determine if the two groups differ significantly in certain identifiable characteristics. The identifiable characteristics are some important objective variables that are utilized in the vocational rehabilitation training of disabled veterans.

An Evaluative Study of Physical Education Activity Programs for Boys in Selected Junior High Schools of Texas (open access)

An Evaluative Study of Physical Education Activity Programs for Boys in Selected Junior High Schools of Texas

The problem undertaken in this study was to evaluate the activity phase of boys' physical education programs in selected junior high schools of Texas. As a result of visitation and observation in a number of public junior high schools in the capacity of supervising teacher for physical education majors, it appears that many physical education programs were little more than loosely supervised play periods. Apparently there was room for improvement of these programs but a method for making judgments and recommendations required some type of measuring device. However, an examination of several existing measuring techniques failed to reveal any one devoted to the junior high school level or one concerned primarily with the activity program. As a means of improving existing programs, it was concluded that some new form of evaluation must be designed.
