To Raise Standard OF Teachers

That the time has come TO stop the
practice of permitting young men snc
women without any experience or
training to experiment upon children
In the role of teacher. is the belief
OF Superintendent Of Public lnstruc.
tion, Fred l.. Keeler As result,
Superintendent Keller is urging the
pasasge of a law by the next session
of the Legislature which will require
at least six weeks normal training
before an inexperienced person is al
lowed TO teach. As the various state
nomals offer summer courses, this re-
quirement will work no hardship. The
law is to provide that the emphasis in
these courses be placed upon actual
training work, rather than mere AGA.
demic preparation.
Because OF the popularity of the
state normal schools. the forty. FIVE
county normal training classes
throughout the state and the normal
classes OF the Ferris Institute the per.
centage OF trained teachers la Michi-
gan Is high and this has decidedly
raised the standard of work in the
state, especially in the rural districts
The enactment 10 ~ law as proposed
by superintendent Keeler would aid
materially in raising TINS standard.
Such bill was passed by the senate
at the last session Of the Legislature
but did not receive consideration in
the house
