AbstractA questionnaire was administered to 546 middle level school teachers in one public school system in the southeast. The questions clustered around the following dimensions with respect to nuclear disarmament: significance for humanity, curriculum issues, teacher qualifications, availability of materials, appropriateness of issue for middle grades students, and reaction by community or school system to the teaching of the issue. Over 90% of the system's middle level teachers responded. Chi-square tests of independence were conducted, and a number of significant relationships were found. In general responses varied by subject taught, age, and educational background. Most of the teachers believed that the issue is an important one for humanity. Only a small percentage included it in their teaching, but about half believed that it should be included elsewhere in the curriculum. Most teachers did not think that they had enough background and information to teach about the issue. Recommendations included...

AbstractSince 1960 there have been numbers of investigators of the relationship between self-concept and what happens in the classroom. A review of the research literature of self-concept and what happens in the classroom reveals: (1) The self is a complex subjective system that the student brings to school. (2) There is a positive relationship between self-concept and academic performance and that parents and teachers have an important impact on the self-concept of the individual child. (3) Effective educators should accept and support the multidimensional model of self-concept. (4) Ability grouping has little significant effect on learning outcomes, self-concept, or attitudes toward school and subject matter. (5) Activities that develop self-concept: teacher-pupil planning, cooperative learning, peer tutoring, multi-age interaction, self-evaluation, out of school activities, and community service projects are also important to effective middle school educators.

AbstractDuring the past 15 years, numerous research studies have been conducted that examine teacher clarity as an effective classroom behavior. These studies suggest a positive correlation between effective teacher clarity behaviors and positive gains both in student achievement and student perception. In addition, various low-inference variables related to clarity have been identified that can be successfully employed in middle school settings. This chapter briefly discusses why teachers should be clear and provides a number of practical guidelines for enhancing clear teacher explanations.
