Activities Of County School Superintendents In Kentucky, G. R. Mccoy

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

This study is undertaken to find out what activities are actually performed by the county school superintendent in the state of Kentucky. Much theorizing has been done about what he should do and how he should allocate his time, but it seems that no one has done much to find out just what he does. Courses of instruction are being offered in many colleges for the purpose of preparing person to administer efficiently the office of county school superintendent. These courses are based mainly on theory and not on facts. It is hoped that this study will aid instructors in …

Education And The World Situation, Selden Smyser

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of Education and Professional Studies

The world situation of this last year, continued depression with its termination more than ever in the indefinite future, together with the threat of an outbreak of war which existed for a time, is the most direct challenge our system of education has ever had. Charles Beard, political scientist, has presented a five-year plan to be carried out through national governmentaJ organization.

The American Federation of Labor and the United States Chamber of Commerce each present plans to stabilize business and employment. Why are educators contributing …

Discipline As A Moral Issue In The Elementary School, Jeanette M. Whalen

Bachelors’ Theses

The purpose of this thesis is to point out how discipline is still a big problem for the inexperienced teacher, and that as a moral issue it is also a perplexing problem confronting the experienced teacher. In the first chapter it shows that a good understanding of psychology is necessary to approach the problem of discipline and that the teacher must have the qualities necessary to make her a leader and an inspiration to those in her charge. In the following chapters the method of instilling good morals and producing healthy moral characters is brought out by means of co-ordination …

The Place Of Private And Church Schools In The Education Of The State, Anna Elizabeth Falls

Teacher Education, Educational Leadership & Policy ETDs

In considering the relation of the private, parochial and denominational schools to the education of the State, it is well to bear in mind Sargent's statement that in that last analysis there is no such thing as a private school; that all schools are doing a public work, the work of the community in educating prospective citizens. It is this fact, that education in our American democracy has for its aim the making of a progressive and stable nation through efficiently trained citizens, each in his individual capacity and through his individual interests, that makes the problem of education difficult …

Analysis Of New Mexico State School Laws, John Seyfried

Teacher Education, Educational Leadership & Policy ETDs

The analysis that follows does not purport to do what only a state-wide survey could properly do, that is, treat fully and minutely the New Mexico public school situation. The real intent is to occasion serious thought on the larger problems of the way for an expert state survey, preliminary to more constructive action. The extent that school problems may be treated herein is limited by the fact that only such time, effort, and other resources were at the writer’s disposal as are commonly available in the preparation of a thesis to be submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements …

The Relationship Of Principal And Teacher. A Study Of Some Ways Of Improving Teachers In Service, Lillian Caryl Thies

Bachelors’ Theses

The title of this thesis is, ''The Relationship Between Principal and Teacher". Such a title may cover a great field, and instead of a single thesis, volumes might be written adequately to review it. I must therefore narrow the subject down, and after giving a general view of the position of the elementary school principal in the educational field and a sketch of his various powers and duties, I shall consider in more detail some ways in which he may help the elementary teacher to grow and to improve in service. There is gathering upon the subject, "The Principalship", a …
