The Religious Belief Questionnaire of Smith and Apfeldorf, a multi-denominational instrument, and the Waldrop revision of the Allport-Vernon-Lindzey Study of Values were administered to eleventh grade student volunteers, 54 boys and 68 girls, during regular class periods. Males scored significantly higher than females on the theoretical, economic, and political scales of the Study of Values, females higher than males on the aesthetic, social, and religious scales, and on the Religious Belief Questionnaire. Correlations between scales, and between scales and the Religious Belief Questionnaire are presented. Results are discussed in relation to data in the Study of Values manual and also to findings of similar research on high school students.

Dance sport, like other sports belongs to the aesthetic and coordinating sports; with high demands of nearly all motoric skills. They require mainly the ability to coordinate, which is often the limiting factor of performance in dance sport. Due to the fact that dance is synonymous with music and closely associated with the rhythmic capabilities, we will focus further on detailed characteristics of the two rhythmic abilities: rhythmic perception and rhythmic execution. The research sample consisted of 153 test subjects in the age range 17-34 years. The experimental group consists of 104 dancers (53 women and 51 men). The control group consisted of 49 high school students. To examine the level of rhythmic perception, we used a test called rhythmic discrimination. To examine the level of rhythmic execution, we used a test called rhythmic drumming. We proved that dance sport has a positive effect on the level of our selected rhythmic ability, the longer the subjects danced, the better the results achieved in tests. We were unable to prove a statistically significant relationship between rhythmic perception and implementation.

The Aesthetic

The primary objective of this study is to investigate whether three interaction strategies through mobile apps may be associated with increases in students’ music listening skills. Data was collected from 225 high school students and analysed using the ANOVA procedure in the three ways of music listening: analytic, aesthetic and sensory. Interaction with the app was least influential in the analytic listening of the participants. Interaction with peers was most influential in the aesthetic listening of the participants. Interaction with the app was most influential in the sensory listening of the participants.

Scale Scores

The Paranormal Belief Scale was given to high school students in Grade 11 (95 boys, 98 girls). This scale provides a total Paranormal Belief Score, plus scores on each of seven paranormal subscales: Traditional Religious Belief, Psi Belief, Witchcraft, Spiritualism, Superstition, Extraordinary Life Forms, and Precognition. Paranormal scale/subscale scores of high school students were compared to those of a sample of college students. Generally, high school students were greater disbelievers in paranormal phenomena than college students. High school students showed significantly less belief than college students on the total Paranormal Scale and on the subscales, Psi Belief, Extraordinary Life Forms, and Witchcraft. As hypothesized, the number of science courses taken by high school students correlated significantly and inversely with total Paranormal Scale scores, Traditional Religious Belief scores, and Psi Belief scores. Also as hypothesized, Traditional Religious Belief scores were significantly and directly associated with grade point average ( r = .21). Further as hypothesized, high school students in the most accelerated academic track showed significantly less belief on Superstition than students in other tracks.

The aim of this research is to determine the factors that may prevent high school students from participating in recreational activities and to investigate whether these factors differ within the scope of various variables. This study consisted of total 1459 (681 women and 778 men) student volunteers who educated in high school level. Sampling method was preferred for easy sampling. The face-to-face survey method was used to collect the data. The "Leisure Constraints Scale" developed by Alexandris and Carroll (1997) and adapted to Turkish by Gürbüz and Karaküçük (2008) was used to determine the factors that might prevent individuals from participating in leisure activities. The data obtained for the research were first transferred to the computer and then analyzed by SPSS packet program. The error margin level in the study was taken as p < 0.05. The cronbach alpha of the study was found to be 0.91. As a result, it was found that women participated in the leisure time more than men. It was also observed that the participants met with more leisure constrain in Turkey's eastern regions.

Postsecondary Science

University-based scientists are increasingly meeting the challenge to communicate with the public to improve general science literacy, explain their research to a lay audience, and recruit science students. At the University of Western Ontario, graduate student volunteers of Let's Talk Science have launched a project that introduces senior high school students to research presentations given by undergraduate physiology students. The project has given the undergraduate students an opportunity to present their work to an interested audience other than their peers or faculty, while it provides the high school students with positive role models and a greater awareness of postsecondary science. This project was judged a success by all participants, because many of the high school students became interested in physiology and claimed to be more confident in their ability to participate in science, and it also appeared to improve the presentation and communication skills of the undergraduates. This innovative and cost-efficient project is an effective way to demonstrate the excitement of physiology to potential future scientists while showing undergraduate students that public communication of science is not only important but can also be fun.

Presentamos una exploración del papel de la estética en la enseñanza y aprendizaje de las matemáticas. Primeramente, revisamos el estado de la cuestión. Posteriormente, obtenemos mediante un cuestionario, que de entre los criterios estéticos que aparecen en la literatura, el referido a la simplicidad es el que parece ser compartido por alumnos de educación secundaria con calificaciones académicas medias y bajas. Finalmente, observamos mediante un estudio de casos, que a través de contenidos matemáticos, en este caso las teselaciones del plano, se vislumbra en alumnos de educación secundaria la aparición de consideraciones y experiencias estéticas.The Role of Aesthetics in the Teaching and Learning of MathematicsWe present an exploration of the role of aesthetics in the teaching and learning of Mathematics. Firstly, we review the state of the issue. Subsequently, through a questionnaire, we obtain that among the aesthetic criteria that appear in the literature is the one related to simplicity that seems to be shared by high school students of middle and low academic qualifications. Finally, through a case study, we observe that through mathematical contents, in this case the tessellations of the plane, we see in students of high school the appearance of aesthetic considerations and experiences.Handle: http://hdl.handle.net/10481/48170WOS-ESCIScopus record and citations

A modification of the Paired-Stimuli Parent Program (Florance, 1977) was adapted for the treatment of articulatory errors of visually handicapped children. Blind high school students served as clinical aides. A discussion of treatment methodology, and the results of administrating the program to 32 children, including a two-year follow-up evaluation to measure permanence of behavior change, is presented.
