Eight of them teach under supervision at the local Edwards Evans Elemen tary School, two at the North Street, and five at the Washing ton Drive Junior High School. One objective of the program is to place prospective teachers in posi tions on the field where they can see expert teaching in progress and in turn can get both the prac tice and the feel of doing it them selves. The work extends through out the day for a period of 12 weeks. Conferences for student teach ers are scheduled two days a week for an hour. In these group meet ings, the students discuss their problems, plan units together, dis cuss report forms, observe supple mentary materials, evaluate teach ing techniques and discuss cur rent professional books and pamphlets. Time is given for work periods, for demonstrations, and for the learning of needed skills. The reaction of the students themselves to the work may point up both its character and its edu cational value. One student was impressed by the manner in which “one proceeds to find the best method for a particular class”; another saw virtue in the “perio dic conferences to which one may bring the problems he has en countered,” and still another in sisted that she was not aware” that there was so much to be learned about teaching anyway.” “I think I will like teaching as a career,” one man concluded, “but it requires work to no end.” The supervisor of the program is Vivian O. Windley, formerly Supervisor of Negro Elementary Schools in Wake County, N. C. ing secretary; Nina Baten, chair man, Worship Committee; Velma Malloy, chairman. Publicity Com mittee; Mildred McIntyre, chair man, Music Committee. E. Louise Murphy of the Area of Social Science, is the .sponsor.
