?AGETWO SHE MICHIGAN DAILY SUNI~AY, MAY 24, 1936 English Department Undertakes Experiment With High Schools Honor Guards, color :Bearers Named B Gram tlassified Directory Preparatory Composition Course Work Evaluated By University Men By WILLIAM SPALLER A "cooperative experiment" to pro- mote better correlation in the teach- ing of English in high school and college has been undertaken this year by the English department of the University. The work consists in commenting on and evaluating papers of high school students representative of the written work done in the last two years in the preparatory English course. The work this year has been restricted to the teaching of written composition and was joined in by more than 60 high schools both within and without the state. The program has been under the direction of the Michigan Commit- tee on the Articulation of High School and College English, headed by Pro- fessors Clarence D. Thorpe, Erich A. Walter and Earl Leslie Griggs of the English department. Other members of the committee include teachers in Michigan public schools and Profes- sors Roy W. Cowden, E. S. Everett and N. E. Nelson, and Dr. Arno L. Bader, Bert E. Boothe, Dr. J. L. Davis, Dr. Theodore Hornberger, G. D. Helm, William P. Knode, A. K. Stevens and C. F. Wells of the English depart- ment. The high schools invited to par- ticipate in the work include large schools both in Michigan and out- side the state who send relatively large numbers of students to Ann Ar- bor, and medium-sized or small Mich- igan schools in sufficient number to give a cross section of the problem. More than 600 papers were exam- ined by members of the committee last semester and individual com- mients written to analyze each paper both in terms of its thought value and in terms of its mechanical pro- ficiency. Letters. were also written Churelies Plan Relioous Talks Bly Professors (Continued from Page1) preach on the subject "The Religion of a Liberal" at 10:45 a.m. at the regular morning service of the First Presbyterian Church, and at 6 p.m. the Westminster Guild meeting will be held on the lawn of the new church site. At 8 a.m. Holy Communion will be celebrated at St. Andrew's Episcopal Church, and at 11 a.m. the morning prayer with sermon by the Rev. Hen- ry Lewis will be held. The student group will meet 'at 6:30 p.m. at the home of Mr. and Mrs. T. S. Peirsol with Prof. Howard McClusky of the School of Education speaking. Those who do not know the way to the Peirsol home will be picked up at 6:30 p.m. at Harris Hall. At 10:30 a.m., the morning service of the Trinity Lutheran Church will be held with the Rev. H. O. Yoder preaching on the subject "Why Cate- chize?" The Lutheran Student club will hold its annual senior banquet at 6 p.m. May 24 in the Parish Hall of the Zion Lutheran Church. A Divine service in German is at 9:30 a.m. at St. Paul's Lutheran, and at 10:45 a.m. a pre-confirmation ser- vice will be held. The Student-Wal- ther League banquet will be held at 7 p.m. The Rev. Allison Ray Heaps will talk on "The Unfinished Task" and Kermit Eby will speak on the subject "The Meaning of Kagawa," at 10:30 a.m. at the morning service of the First Congregational Church. to each school commenting on each set of papers as a whole and analyz- ing the types of composition, teaching aims and methods and standards. The program has also included a limited number of visits to the high schools, which is regarded as a very important part of the work. After papers have been criticized and appraised they are returned to the high school which compares, an- alyzes, and discusses the ratings. It is believed that the consultant's rat- ings and comments will have greater significance for the teaching of high school English through this method. Various ways of gathering informa- tion in the cooperative experiment have been followed by the committee. They include courses of study, the description of particular assignments, and further ideas and opinions re- garding a variety of problems in the whole field. "We feel," it was stated by Mr. Boothe, "that the University is unique in a position to advance the teaching of English in Dichigan by developing this body of practical in- formation and making it readily ac- cessible to the schools." Several reasons why the work has been so valuable were outlined by Mr. Boothe. They are, that it has aired the whole problem of the teaching of English composition with the result that minor changes in certain high school curricula have already oc- curred, that it has given the high schools a better understanding of university aims, requirements, and standards, and that it has brought the high schools and the university closer together and has promoted a feeling of common interests and aims. Many enthusiastic letters of com- mendation of the experiment have been received from high school prin- cipals. Full-hearted cooperation has been promised mith the hope that the program will continue. A pamphlet "Preparation for Col- lege English" has been issued by the committtee. The bulletin was pub- lished for the purpose of presenting "in as clear and concrete a form as possible what is expected of an enter- ing freshman as the University of Michigan."
