Dramatizes the experiences of three beginning student teachers. Suggests getting well acquainted with the school, its personnel, and its policies; becoming accustomed to handling routine classroom matters; becoming familiar with a wide variety of instructional materials, their preparation, and their use; and learning as much as possible about the pupils.
Presents the proper methods for dissection of the frog in order to observe its anatomy. Indicates the structures which can be observed by opening the mouth. Depicts proper incisions to make in order to lay skin and muscle layers aside and how to tie off the abdominal vein before cutting it. The location and structure of the digestive system are examined. The urinary system is identified along with the reproductive systems in both the male and female frogs. The heart and circulatory systems are pictured; and muscles tendons, and nerves of the hind legs are shown. The top of the skull is removed and the brain and other parts of the nervous system are shown.
Pictures fraternity activities before, during, and after pledging. Emphasizes the pleasures and responsibilities of fraternity life and points out how all fraternities on a college campus cooperate in joint activities. Shows how the brotherhood of the fraternity helps each individual member to become a better person and presents a college president who cites the values he received from his college fraternity. Stresses the importance of fraternity membership in guiding academic, moral, and social development. Filmed on the Indiana University campus with comments by President Herman B Wells.
[motion picture] Presents briefly the theory of operation of the photoelectric exposure meter and gives illustrations of how it can be intelligently used to solve exposure problems. Practical use of the meter is shown in handling exposure problems relating to: scenes with extreme brightness ranges, achieving accurate flesh tones, copying, taking incident light readings, establishing lighting ratios, setting lights for a pre-determined f/stop, using a gray and white card, making substitute readings, and selecting from the various f/stop and shutter speed combinations either to achieve a desired depth of field or stop subject-motion. Throughout the Weston Master III meter is used for demonstration.
[motion picture] Features the internal anatomy of fresh fetal pig specimens by systems, to illustrate techniques of dissection for studying the anatomy of a mammal. Shows fetal pigs within a uterus. Next, the internal anatomy is examined; then, the abdominal cavity is exposed and internal organs pointed out. Shows both the female and male reproductive systems. Organs of the neck and thoracic cavity are exposed and identified. The arterial and venous systems are followed and major structures indicated. Finally, the skull is removed and the parts of the brain and their respective functions are discussed.
Shows how to heat carbon-steel tools for forge sharpening; how to sharpen, harden, and temper a plowshare; how to sharpen, harden, and temper a cultivator shovel; and how to identify tempering colors.
Describes briefly the arduous processes by which the early settlers ground corn in their homes and focuses on the construction and operation of large water-powered mills. Shows farmers bringing their sacks of corn by horseback to the miller who, for a portion of the flour, grinds the grain to the desired texture, while the farmers catch up on the latest news. Explains the miller's activities as he goes through each step of the grinding process.
Through illustrations, shows high school and college students learning the use of various safety devices, rules, and procedures. Each illustration points out that the student should follow the directions given, should use the tools of chemistry properly, and should consult with the instructor when in doubt.
Demonstrates active vasomotion as it occurs in arterioles, terminal arterioles, and precapillary sphincters and as it affects the capillary bed in a bat's wing.
A skilled potter demonstrates the correct stacking of both green and glazed pottery in a small kiln as the narrator explains the factors involved. The potter then shows each step in firing the pieces.
Detailed reactions of the minute vessels and the blood which modify the flow through these regions are demonstrated by high magnification of a bat's wing. The form and behavior of the platelets within the circulation are shown before and after a mild injury.
Introductory scenes show the techniques used for mounting bats and recording the circulation in their wings. A view of the general distribution of the vascular components is followed by more detailed views of flow behavior in the various vessels, examples of lymphatic action, and the flow across the capillary bed.
[motion picture] Orients students to the opportunities and experiences for the study of government at a typical college or university. Emphasizes that government cannot be taken for granted and that everyone is a part of the government. Demonstrates various areas of government for study: American government, politics, public administration, comparative and internal relations, and immediate controversial problems. Concludes with the generalization that the study of government is democracy at work.
Shows a skilled ceramist demonstrating the step-by-step process of making simple molds of three types: slipcasting, drape, and press molds. Portrays the process from pattern-making to the completed object, and explains the steps at each stage.
Demonstrates three slab methods of pottery-making. Shows wedging, forming a candleholder directly from a lump of clay, rolling a slab for a simple tile, and constructing a flower container from several pieces of clay. Emphasizes the correct use of basic tools.
A group of fifth-grade children demonstrates the singing game "Skip to My Lou." After the introduction, the words are shown by animation. The boys and girls then demonstrate the action of the game in detail.
Shows the use of tape recorders in teaching situations and presents some of the different models of recorders indicating their controls, various speeds, and purposes. Gives a demonstration of several microphone placements and offers suggestions for the improvement of recorded sound quality. Explains how to edit tapes by splicing and suggests many uses for tape recorders such as in language instruction, music groups, and conferences.
Documents the principal works of ancient statuary which constituted the core of the exhibition, The Arts of Thailand, which came to the United States in the form of a traveling exhibition in 1960. Presents the transformation of the Buddha image from the representation of a revered teacher to that of a supreme deity. Makes the point that one cannot understand Thailand today if one fails to see how faithfully the psychology of a nation is mirrored in its depiction of the Buddha throughout the centuries.
Describes how maps are made by picturing a class constructing a map from a model of the community. Shows the use of a legend and how a scale is derived in order that distance may be measured on the map. Illustrates the way a community can be located on county, state, and U.S. maps, and on a world globe.
Portrays life of a typical farm family during the early 1800s in the Northeastern United States.
