- Abstract
The article focuses on a study to investigate the offerings of a representative group of teachers' colleges in the United States having Class "A" rank with the American Association of Teachers Colleges and to discover the nomenclature used for these courses, and to discover trends toward uniformity. The Data collected by Professors W. J. Knobbs and Lewis Clevenger of the Northeast Missouri State Teachers College was used for this study. They collected the data by an analysis of the catalog bulletins of sixty-five teachers colleges having Class A rating. The study found chaotic situations about the title of courses in the various biological sciences. It also found that there is much lack of uniformity in naming of courses in other sciences. The study depicts that the prospective teacher of the biological sciences should be familiar with certain fundamental fields.
