Faced with concerns about Internet predators, cyberbullying, students' sharing of inappropriate content on social networks, and the abundance of sexually explicit or violent content online, many school leaders and technology directors are placing tighter restrictions on Web access to shield students from potential harm. Yet in Trussville and other…

The Student Outcomes Questionnaire and the Student Outcomes Information Analysis Service (SOIS) developed by NCHEMS and the College Board are discussed. The term, "student outcomes," is defined as the consequence of a student's enrollment in an educational institution and involvement in its programs. The importance of this type of…

To identify cognitive process concomitants of reading comprehension, a Structure of Intellect (SOI) interpretation is proposed. (Author)

A summer institute trained 18 teachers to identify and plan curriculum for gifted minority and disadvantaged young children from culturally different and remote rural areas. Theory and practicum emphases were included in the program. Teachers were trained in the Structure of the Intellect (SOI) model. Sixty-eight children from the Alpine (Texas)…

The paper investigates a strategy for integrating the IEP (individualized educational plan) and J. Guilford's Structure-of-Intellect (SOI) in order to promote an accountability based approach to differentiated programing for the gifted classroom student. (Author/PHR)

Results of gifted fourth-sixth graders on the Structure of the Intellect Learning Abilities Test are analyzed in terms of the test's measure of five operations (evaluation, convergent production, divergent production, memory, and cognition). (CL)

Insufficient predictive validity on academic variables of the Structure-of-Intellect Learning Abilities Test Gifted Screening Form (SOI-LA-GSF) was found with 172 gifted grade four and 109 gifted grade seven students. The predictive validity of other measures was examined with 107 grade 10 students. (MC)

All children have intelligence in varying degrees in various abilities; Structure of Intellect (SOI) Institute tests diagnose those abilities successfully in gifted, deaf, retarded, aphasic and all ethnic groups. With a database of thousands of student test responses, materials are developed to prepare children for the future. (NEC)

The value of the Structure of Intellect Learning Abilities Test for identifying gifted children and predicting teacher perception of them was investigated with 138 intermediate grade students. (DLS)

A correlation matrix of 21 structure-of-intellect (SOI) tests taken by 204 Marine officers at a military base in Southern California, which was intended to reflect aptitudes for military leadership, was reanalyzed through exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory maximum likelihood factor analysis. Higher order factors appeared to have…

The Structure of Intellect Learning Abilities (SOI-LA) Test was administered to 244 Navajo students (second through eighth grades) at Leupp Boarding School in northern Arizona to determine behavioral characteristics in regard to intellectual and creative ability. Comparison of SOI-LA test scores of Leupp students with norm scores revealed 54 of…

This study examined the social environmental conditions perceived by local government representatives as relatively important for their implementation of e-government using the Digital Towpath Project (DTP) content management system, referred to as "websites". The survey population included individuals who administered the municipal websites for…

Results from the testing of 23 eighth grades with the Structure of Intellect (S.O.I.) Learning Abilities Test to discriminate among abilities and needs of different groups of children indicated the test could be used to identify children with potential learning problems, diagnose needs, and aid educators to select appropriate programs. (MC)

Confirmatory factor analysis was used to reanalyze correlational data from selected variables in Guilford's Aptitudes Research Project. Results indicated Guilford's model reproduced the original correlation matrix more closely than other models. Most of Guilford's tests indicated high loadings on their hypothesized factors. (GDC)

This study was to isolate factors in conflict which teachers experience in their work and to determine their relationship to organizational bureaucracy, satisfaction, and central life interests. A stratified random sampling was used for the main position of the study. The school districts were stratified into five groups on the basis of the number…
