  • For Advanced Undergraduates And Graduates During the second and the third two-week periods of the first summer term, a course in Observation and Evaluation in Elementary Education (Ed. 433a), carrying two semester (three quarter) hours of credit, will be taught. In other words, in the second and third periods this same course will be repeated. It will be scheduled so as to meet three hours each day for the two- week period and will provide opportunities for observation in the Demonstration School. This course is open alike to advanced undergraduate teachers who have had considerable teaching experience and to graduates who wish to combine class work, conferences, observations at the Demonstration School, and research in the Library. (See "Short Courses," page 5.) For Those Converting High School Certificates To Elementary This course (Ed. 433a), just explained above, will be especially valuable to graduates interested in converting their high school certificates to elementary or to those who have completed a liberal arts degree and are in need of required professional courses for teaching certificates. PhychoIogY This course is designated as Psychology 334, 335, 336—The Child. It, too, is intended for only experienced undergraduate teachers. Psy. 334, given the first term, will deal with the general principles of growth, physical and emotional, and the techniques of studying growth. Psy. 335, also given the first term, will deal with social and mental growth, emphasizing problems of appraisal and direction. Psy. 336, offered in the second term, will consider the psychology of learning with special emphasis on the direction of learning in school situations. The subject matter of the first two parts of the course will be focused on the study of individual children. Those enrolled for The Child will find that it makes an admirable combination with The School, explained above. PROGRAM IN SPECIAL EDUCATION This summer the College is continuing its program, initiated in 1951, in Special Education. Every effort is being made to put into this program all the skill and facilities that the College can command in order that its maximum effectiveness may be assured. To do this it is again providing a well-planned Demonstration School, around which this feature of the summer school will function. Its purpose is to serve and to coordinate the needs of the child, the parent, and the teacher. The Demonstration School in its total program is concerned with three^ groups of children. The first group consists of those interested in the various enrichment features provided—art, physical education and the like. These features will be emphasized as vital integrated parts in the total curriculum. 17
