Electronic Theses & Dissertations

The writer has been teaching psychology in a small high school in Kansas. He found that the students who were taking psychology seemed to take but little interest in the subject. He became interested in knowing if this condition were true in other secondary schools in Kansas.

Out of the desire to know what was being done by the other psychology teachers this study-The Status of Psychology in Secondary Schools in Kansas-evolved.

Electronic Theses & Dissertations

Excerpt: "Clothing practices have changed considerably during recent years. Under the low labor costs of late years ready-to-wear manufacturers have offered values in ready-to-wear garments which have caused a decrease in home sewing. Notwithstanding this fact pupils in the junior and senior high schools spend much time on the construction of clothing in this ready-to-wear age. Therefore, the home economics teacher is confronted with the question of the place the construction of clothing should have in the school curriculum and of the choice of the related units that should form a part of the curriculum. It seemed a solution of …
