Hatley Addresses
Science Meetings
Mr. R. C. Hatley, science in

was honored by being invited to
two educational meetings held in

The first meeting, held at Boy-
den high school at Salisbury, was
called by the Division of Instruc

Education. The purpose of this
meeting was to discuss plans for
the publication of a handbook on
science teaching. Mr. Henry
Shannon, superintendent of sci
ence and math instruction in.
North Carolina high schools, pre
sided.
The second meeting was held
at Bessemer high school in
Greensboro. This meeting, the
purpose of which was to share
ideas on better teaching meth
ods, was attended by all the
high school teachers in Guil
ford county. After a general
meeting, each teacher went to a
separate meeting on the subject
he taught. Mr. Hatley spoke to
the science teachers’ group on
“How to Improve Teaching in the
Field of Science, Especially Physi
cal Science.” He illustrated his
talk with demonstrations, such
as are seen in the annual A.H.S.
Science Fair.
Participation in the two meet
ings is a distinct honor to Mr.
Hatley and to Albemarle high
school.
