Screen media content on weekdays and weekendshad no impact on academic performance (OR 0.56; 95%CI 0.26to 1.20; P=0.136 and OR 0.97; 95%CI 0.47 to 1.00; P=0.934,respectively) . In addition, the duration of screen media useon weekdays and weekends had no association with academicperformance (OR 0.60; 95%CI 0.30 to 1.23; P=0.161 andOR 0.90; 95%CI 0.44 to 1.86; P=0.782, respectively). Factorssignificantly associated with students' above average academicperformance were female gender (OR 3 .26; 95%CI 1.38 to7.74; P=0.007), superior intelligence quotient (IQ) comparedto average IQ (OR 4.63; 95%CI 1.66 to 12.9; P=0.003), highlysuperior IQ compared to average IQ (OR 5.45; 95%CI 1.51 to19.64; P=0.009), as well as achievement motivation and existenceof learning strategy, including intermediate vs. low motivation(OR 4.09; 95%CI 1.14 to 14.7 ; P=0.031), and high vs . lowmotivation (OR61.1; 95%CI 7.42 to 502.95; P<0.001); lack ofemotional and behavioral problems (OR 0.45; 95%CI 0.37-0.54;P= 0.01); and democratic parenting style (OR 0.45; 95%CI 0.37to 0.55; P=0.022).Conclusion There is no association between screen media useand academic performance in junior high school students.

Textbook Series

Do textbook series in arithmetic develop the mathematical concepts and skills in accordance with current learning theory? This is an important question for the junior high school mathematics teacher. The answer determines the extent to which the teacher may rely on the textbook for guidance in the learning sequence. Since, for many students, mathematics instruction ceases at ninth grade, mathematical strands considered by teachers and textbook writers to be important must be brought to a culminating point by that time.

I do not think that the various departments, so called, in The Mathematics Teacher are equally interesting or equally valuable, but a new department, introduced in the January, 1955, issue, is one that I think should receive the support of all teachers of mathematics whether or not they are actually members of The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics. I refer, of course, to the new department edited by Kinney and Dawson of Stanford University. It will have my full support because I think that we have made a failure, more or less, of the junior high school movement.
