THURSDAY, JULY 2. 19361 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE THREE Yearbook alues Are Emphasized By F Hubbard Superintendence Annual Used As Illustration Of Their Usefulness A heavy stress was placed on the value of a yearbook such as that compiled by the Department of Su- perintendence in a lecture delivered yesterday afternoon in the University High School Auditorium by Dr. Frank W. Hubbard, associate director of the research division of the National Ed- ucation Association. Dr. Hubbard placed emphasis on the usefulness of a yearbook in pick- ing out the more useful and promis- ing material for educators in fields such as Special Studies. He men- tioned specifically the 1936 Yearbook of the Department of Superinten- dence. This particular yearbook grew out of the need to realize whither are Social Studies going. Likewise the Commission compiling the yearbook felt that our society for many years has been developing unevenly and that anti-social conditions have arisen. The question arises, says Dr. Hubbard who helped in editing this yearbook, whether the Social Studies can serve as a corrective. Expects Ideal Attwnents "Naturally, we are going to have a period of trial and exploration but out of this transition period, may we not fill the need for a development of social goals, gain a greater knowl- edge of the social processes and also of group life?" Dr. Hubbard queried. Dr. Hubbard brought out the fact that the members of the Commission who collaborated in writing this year- book were scholars of diverse views, training and interests. Some of the important figures were Charles A. Beard, .Dr. George S. Counts, Dr. Frank N. Freeman of Chicago, Dr. Howard E. Wilson of Harvard and Dr. Paul T. Rankin° of Detroit. These men were in agreement that we are going to have a democratic system of government in the future. However they felt that the commission should not try "to write a blueprint of society for the future." The Social Studies can only recognize that changes will occur and in the light of those changes attempt not only to keep abreast but point the way, Dr. Hub- bard stated. 14 Basic Assumptions Dr. Hubbard mentioned the four- teen basic assumptions that the Com- mission agreed upon. These are: 1. To revise the Social Studies curriculum continuously in the light of changing needs and in the light of changing developments. 2. There are in many public schools today Social Studies courses of merit but most of these programs can be and should be improved. 3. New materials should be woven into the curriculum to replace ob- solete materials. 4. Although basically the curricu- lum is the same throughout the coun- try yet peculiar local ideas and dif- ference should be appreciated. 5. It is necessary to include con- troversial issues to give us a more realistic picture. 6. Schools cannot deal with all controversial issues with equal pro- priety. At times there may be eco- nomic reasons that may temporarily interfere with the program. Teachers As Guides 7. The function of the teacher is not to indoctrinate but to guide. The teachers role is a judicial one. 8. The child and teacher contacts are the very center of the Social Studies curriculum. 9. Techniques and devices in teaching are important but should merely be means to an end. 10. No program is complete with- out systematic appraisal by tests, teacher's judgments, etc. 11. Since learning and not teach- ing is of first importance emphasis should be placed on procedures that help students appraise their own work. 12. The local community should be a laboratory for the Social Studies program. 13. The Yearbook is really a sourcebook for the guidance of those in the field of Social Studies. 14. There is a vital relationship between the Social Studies and other fields such as art, languages, litera- ture and even the forces outside of the school proper.
