PAGE TWO THE MICHIGAN DAILY WEDNESDAY, APRIL 17,1957 MORE DEMOCRATIZATION: Edueation E~ By DIANE LaBAKAS European ducational opportuni- ties are increasing, Dean Willard C. Olson of the School of Educa- tion recently said. Returning from a Conference on Examinations and Evaluation in, Hamburg, Germany, Dean Olson' noted a trend toward democratiza- tion of educational opportunity "that exists in almost every coun- try." Sweden, where enrollment in secondary education has increased three times in the last 10 years, was cited by Dean Olson as one of the many European countries in-I creasing its educational opportuni- ties. Desires of parents, need for edu- cation in a more complex society,7 and the realization that education is an investment rather than an expense were mentioned by Dean Olson as reasons for the increase in educational opportunities. < Need Realized "Europe now realizes that a country reduces its influence and productivity by not increasing its educational opportunities," Dean Olson declared. France is changing, he asserted. Once famous for its excessive homework required of elementary pupils, France has abolished ele- mentary homework by a decree of the Ministry of Education in Nd-< vember, 1956. Schools Changing Comprehensive and unitaryc schools are also becoming more1 common in Europe, Dean Olsont said. "Differentiated and segregated, programs leading to different typesE of secondary and collegiate institu- tions are still common. However, these types of programs are now being deemphasized,' he stated,t "as plans for unitary school sys- tems with comprehensive secon-1 dary schools are growing." Dean Olson noted that althought rigorous examinations, both oral3 and written are still common. there exists a tread toward tests to be used for counselling and guidance, greater emphasis on ap-i praisals of pupils by teachers, andt a philosophy maximizing the abili-} ties of all.

This is one of the questions being studied in an experiment by the Mental Health Research Insti- tute, under the general supervision of Dr. James G. Miller Sixty students from Lester, Mark VIII, and Owen Co-operative Houses are serving as subjects for the tests, in which they are given various tranquilizer pills and tested five times. Driving Tests In one test the subject tries his skill on a modified "driver-train- er," a machine testing tracking skill and reaction time. It's "hard- er than it looks," according to Robert Lindy. '57, one of the four student research assistants admin- istering the tests. "We run a small car attached to a steering wheel at both a fast and slow speed and then we let the subject pick his own speed. Each time the car goes over one of Athe staples, in the 'road' it's counted on the accuracy counter. We also check reaction time on the brake," Lindy said. Checking Vision Some of the tests are used na- tionally, and have been standard- ized while others have been in- vented by the experimenters solely for this experiment. One of this latter kind is the last of thehtwo-hourkbattery of tests. The subject is given six pages with 100 lines having 10 letters each on every page. The object is to scan the lines and indicate after each whether there is an E in the line or not. Creating Boredom A metronome, set at 60 ticks per minute, is intended to serve as a guide in the test designed by Prof. Lowell Kelly of the psychology de- partment. "We're trying to test attention under conditions as boring as pos- sible, hoping to duplicate the sen- sation of driving on an express- way." In the next room the regular ticking continued. "That thing can drive you batty when you're doing something as boring as that test," Lindy said. "I remember one man who came out of there ready to break up the place. I don't know what drug he was taking." -- ..-- - I !i 11 lI " .. ;: ry as ..1.

He also cited a trend towards opening higher education to able persons who did not take secon- dary courses or who concluded special curriculums pointed at other purposes. Growth in technology and com- munication needs has resulted in curriculums and examinations, Dean Olson declared. "Because of the new needs of vocational, scien- tific, and technical progress the content of curriculums and exami- nations have to change," he ex- plained. The United States has moved more rapidly in the new directions indicated by research in the devel- opment and education of children because there is less tradition to wipe cut and more acceptance of res-), rch, Dean Olson asserted. Confetti Used InWater Test Confetti is helping the Univer- sity solve Detroit's water problems. Handfuls of the material thrown into a plastic scale model of a proposed $6,000,000 Detroit pump- ing station simulates the water flow. Civil engineers planning the project then watch through the clear walls to detect and eliminate eddies in the flying confetti. By measuring air pressure at points throughout the model and by tossing the confetti into the machine, researchers can tell how effective their designs have been. Victor L. Streeter, head of the project points out, "If there was excessive turbulence in the water, the station's pumps would not op- erate at full efficiency and would require higher maintenance costs. The pumps would also handle less water than they are designed to and would vibrate, become noisy and wear out faster," he continued. Lu'- wpairsalcidspajaas.
