Examination of the music opportunities available to students in the junior high schools of the early twentieth century lends historical perspective to current challenges facing middle level music educators. This article describes the specific music offerings at Lincoln Junior High School in Minneapolis, Minnesota, from the school opening in 1923 to 1940, when financial challenges forced the reorganization of the music program. In many ways, the music curriculum at Lincoln Junior High School in Minneapolis was exemplary of the music experiences found in other junior high schools. The required curriculum was based on the general music model of the elementary school and included music appreciation and a strong emphasis on the development of music reading skills. Extracurricular “clubs” provided performance opportunities for young adolescent musicians. Choruses focused on preparing large-scale productions such as operettas and musicals, while instrumental groups participated in contests and festivals. Performances for school assemblies and civic groups provide evidence of the importance of connections to the community for junior high schools. The formation of the Girls’ Band at Lincoln in 1924 was unusual. In the absence of direct evidence, I postulate possible explanations for the founding of this unique ensemble.

his study aims to determine the effectiveness of the implementation of online learning on dynamic electricity topics carried out in junior high schools during the Covid-19 pandemic. Effectiveness is seen from the completeness of learning outcomes, obstacles faced during learning, and student responses to online learning. The research method used in this research is quantitative descriptive with one group pre-test post-test design. The sample used in this study were 64 junior high school students in one of the state junior high schools in Lamongan Regency, East Java. The results of the research obtained were that the average completeness of student learning on dynamic electricity material with an online learning model was very low (below the minimum completeness standards), analysis of the N-Gain value gets a value of 0.23 and is categorized as low. Statistical analysis with the help of SPSS 22 shows that the sample is normally distributed and hypothesis testing shows that online learning has no effect on increasing the value of student learning outcomes. There were many obstacles during the online learning process even though solutions had been given but there were not resolved properly, one of the obstacles was the need real lab. Student response to online learning is quite positive 63%.

Abstract Background Globally, among a wide range of public health concerns, smoking remains one of the most crucial challenges. Especially for adolescents, the increase in the use of electronic cigarettes is controversial, as its use may lead to established smoking. In Japan, where a unique tobacco regulation system exists, the heat-not-burn tobacco market has been growing. However, the prevalence and association of combustible cigarettes and new tobacco-related products have not yet been closely investigated among Japanese adolescents. This study aimed to clarify the prevalence of smoking among adolescents including new types of tobacco-related products and to compare the characteristics of their users.Methods In 2017, a cross-sectional survey was conducted with randomly sampled junior high school and high school students from 47 prefectures nationwide. Overall, 98 junior high schools in 44 prefectures and 86 high schools in 42 prefectures were included in the survey. In total, 22,275 students from 48 junior high schools and 42,142 students from 55 high schools completed an anonymous questionnaire while at school.Results The age-adjusted rate of ever (current) use of electronic cigarettes was 2.1% (0.7%) in junior high school and 3.5% (1.0%) in high school; that of combustible cigarettes was 2.6% (0.6%) in junior high school and 5.1% (1.5%) in high school; the rate of heat-not-burn tobacco use was lower relative to the other products: 1.1% (0.5%) in junior high school and 2.2% (0.9%) in high school. Examination of the combined use of the three types of products identified a high number of dual users. Comparison between different types of users indicated different backgrounds of combustible cigarette users and new products users.Conclusions The prevalence of new tobacco-alternative products is growing in popularity among Japanese adolescents. Dual use is common, and many adolescents use new products only. Moreover, e-cigarettes might lure a broader range of groups to smoking. Continuous monitoring and further research should investigate the health impact of new products to promote public health action regarding smoking epidemics.

One of the most recent of the new approaches to the study of Latin is associated with the name of Mason Gray. Mason Gray was Director of Ancient Languages in the East High School and in Junior High Schools, Rochester, N.Y. His theory is expounded in The Teaching of Latin (D. Appleton & Company, New York, 1929, 8s. 6d.) and finds practical expression in Latin for To-day, Parts I and II (Ginn & Company, London, 1932, 1933, 3s. 6d. and 4s. 6d.).
