The Certain Areas In Which Omaha High School Youth Desire Counseling, Mabel B. Carlson Jan 1948

The Certain Areas In Which Omaha High School Youth Desire Counseling, Mabel B. Carlson

Student Work

Human engineering is a great job. Many individuals fail to do their part in solving such problems as war, crime, and international intrigue because they have the attitude that the part they can play is so minute that their services would have little significance. However, these serious social problems have origin in individual selfishness; in the indifference of an individual to the needs and welfare of others; in jealousies and unfriendliness which individuals evidence in their day-by-day relations to others. People are taught to feel and think about themselves and others; and if our institutions of learning are to make …

An Intensive Study Of The Relation Of The Four Basic Wishes To Family Maladjustment, Virginia Maes Haradon Jan 1948

An Intensive Study Of The Relation Of The Four Basic Wishes To Family Maladjustment, Virginia Maes Haradon

Student Work

Nowhere more, perhaps, than in family maladjustment is the expression "merely the boy (or girl) grown tall" more apropos, for here we see the current difficulties to be so frequently, if not largely, carry-overs of difficulties having their incipience in childhood and adolescence. As a personal interview unfolds itself, time after time the problem is seen as an accentuation of, or outgrowth of past maladjustment of the individual or those in his immediate environment.


A Workbook For Sociology In The Secondary School, Mildred Surface Jan 1948

A Workbook For Sociology In The Secondary School, Mildred Surface

Student Work

After completing a survey of the teaching of sociology in the secondary schools I find that many teachers feel there is a need for the course on this level. Those who answered the survey questionnaire reveal that sociology is valuable because it helps the student to understand his personal problems and realise something of the problems of society. In practically all the schools contributing to the survey, sociology is a very popular course with the student because it lends discussions that appeal to his personal interests, the survey also reveals a need for textbooks, workbooks, reference material and other mechanical …
