To Research
Use of Plastic
For Housing
The architecture college has re-
ceived a $29,400 grant from the'
Agency for International Develop-
ment for research on the feasibil-
ity of plastics for housing in un-
derdeveloped areas.
Most of the work will be done
at the department's research lab-;
oratory and at the Research Cen-,
ter for Economic Development.
The study will delve into the
economic, climatic and structural
aspects of using plastic for low-
cost housing projects.
If the research is successful in
finding which plastics are capable,
of being used to advantage In con-
struction, either alone or combined1
with other materials, the next step
would be the development of house
designs to offer as a guide to other
countries.
Professqrs Stephen Paraskevo-

the research team.

Set Project
For Mexico
The education school's program
in comparative education is offer-
ing a special workshop study tour
to Mexico to be held Aug. 5-19.
A two-credit graduate education
course, the workshop will take
place at the United Nations Edu-
cational, Scientific and Cultural
Organization Fundamental Educa-
tion Center at Lake Patzcuaro.
The class has openings for 21
students, and will be directed by
Prof. William G. Merhab of the
Romance languages department.
The students will trek to the
small Indian villages outside the
center, and examine old and new
methods in community education,
as well as overall problems typical
of underdeveloped areas.
In addition to the Mexico pro-
gram-the sixth such tour spon-
sored by the University-the edu-
cation school also holds similar
workshops in Japan and England.
By JUDITH DUKLER
With the success of the new
Latin program-for high school or
University students in beginning
courses-the Language Laboratory
has proven its versatility in solv-
ing any new problems of presen-
tation, E. M. Hamson, acting di-
rector of the Lab, said yesterday.
This new method has several ad-
vantages over the Lab's instruc-
tion in other languages. The stu-
dent is allowed freedom in start-
ing and stopping the tape, permit-
ted to proceed at his own rate of
learning, and the monitor is en-
abled to hear each student and to
be in direct communication with
him.
This new system is a part of
Prof. Waldo Sweet's method for
teaching Latin. Prof. Sweet, of the
Romance languages department,
believes that one doesn't teach but
that the individual must discover
things for himself.
On His Own
Therefore he has devised a sys-
tem where the student proceeds
at his own rate of speed.
Mechanically, the system is sim-
ple. Each student has his own tape
and booth. He reads the program,
then turns the tape on and off to
answer the questions on it. He
should be able to answerreadily
each question on the tape, and
since each tape also has the an-
swers, he can check himself.
Yet he is not held back by the
rates of progress of his classmates,
and, in responding to every ques-
tion, the student has the advan-
tage of individualized, more thor-
ough instruction, Harrnson said.
Monitors All Teachers
The monitors now are the mem-
bers of Prof. Sweet's course in
teaching Latin. They are them-
selves high school Latin teachers
learning the new method.
There are two ways, under the
present arrangement, for the mon-
itors to listen to the students, who
are volunteers from Forsythe Jun-
ior High School.

his being aware of the discussion
going on.
Comparisons have been made
between the student who learns
Latin through this new method
and those who learn by the so-
called "traditional" methods.
No disadvantages to the new
method have been found. In fact,
most of the students, if not ahead
of their contemporaries using the
older methods, are, at least on a
par with them. The. students, by
"discovering" and continually re-
sponding to the language, also do
not forget what they have learned
after the final exam, Hamson said.
Expansion in Future
Concerning the future of this
program and its extension to oth-
er languages, he said "it will be
extended when other languages
have materials ready for this type
of use."
However, an extension of this
program to all languages offered
at the University would raise many
problems of physical space, Ham-
son noted.
"We have proved the lab versa-
tile and that it can solve problems
of new materials when they ar-
rive."
