Plans Tour
To Observe
U.S. SChols
By ELLEN SILVERMAN
"I am here to observe educa-
tional facilities and curricula in
the American public schools,"
Mehdi Aghili, director of elemen-
tary education in Tehran, India,
said in an interview yesterday.
Aghili is currently touring the
United States to learn new and
better ways of improving Iranian
elementary schools. When he -re-
turns to Iran he will serve in the
ministry of education in charge of
curricula.
"Our educational facilities are
now in transition. Thirty years
ago only two to five per cent of
the Iranian populace were literate.
Today in the capital city of Teh-
ran, more than fifty per cent are
literate and more are now begin-
ning to learn all over the country.
Centralized Ministry
The Iranian schools are run by
a centralized ministry which con-
trols curricula, distributes books,
and provides teachers for both
public and private elementary
schools.
Elementary. education is com-
pulsory and "the people want and
ask to send their children to
school," Aghili said.
Under the present system, the
government provides free public
school education to any child be-
tween the ages of six and eighteen.
Also available are numerous pri-
vate schools operated by either re-
ligious organizations or private
educators.
These private schools are en-
couraged by the government since
"they allow rich people to send
their children to private schools,
allowing more children to enter
public school," Aghili remarked.
Added Subjects
Further, these private schools
provide added subjects to the bas-
ic curriculum of elementary
schools. These "extras" are sports,
music and foreign languages.
Teachers may teach in the Iran-
ian public schools after one year
of college with a teaching certifi-
cate, Aghili said. He continued by
saying that in the cities such as
Tehran there was not as great a
teaching shortage as there is in
the provinces.
Finally, Aghili said, the people
of Iran are aiding the ministry of
education in providing more and
better educational facilities by or-
ganizing home - school councils
which are similar to American
PTA associations.
By JUDITH BLEIE,
In a recent survey taken at the
University, more than half the
students interviewed reported that
background music serves as an aid
when studying for many courses.
One freshman in the engineering
school contends that music "ac-
tually helps me study." Students
claim it promotes relaxation, pre-
vents daydreaming, drowns out
distracting noises, and breaks up
the tomb-like silence, which is as
disturbing for some as a noisy
study room.
Promotes Relaxation,
There was no definite agreement
as to a particular composer or
selection which promotes the most
pleasant study atmosphere. How-
ever, the music of Beethoven and
Tchaikovsky was cited by more
students than any others.
Those who reported that they
could not study with music said
it prevents their full concentration
on study material. "It distracts
my attention from the work I
have to do. I cannot completely
concentrate on both," reported a'
sophomore in the literary college.
Practically everyone questioned
agreed that music is only advisable
when studying for certain courses.
Preferences here seemed to vary
with the individual, although a
majority stated that music tends
to interfere with heavy reading
Avoid Conflict
t i
Official Urge S
Students must plan their class
schedules for next term so that
final exams will not conflict.
Edward Groesbeck, Director of
the Office of Registration and
Records and chairman of the Final
Exam Committee urged that stu-
dents be most careful to consult
the final exam program in the
time schedule before planning
their classes, because it would be
difficult to make provisions at the
end of the semester if students
found they had two examinations
at the same time.
The new system was developed
in answer to a request from Stu-
dent Government Council submit-
ted to Vice-President for Student
Affairs James A. Lewis to publish
the examination schedule at the
beginning of the term.
"Some students have found it
very easy to work out a schedule
without exam conflicts," Groes-
beck said.
He also warned that it would be
"to the student's detriment" if he
changed his elected courses simply'
to avoid having tWo non-conflict-
ing examinations on the same day.
Students are. required to enter
the exam code letter for each class
on all class and election cards.
