Thresher suffered additional

Woods Hole scientists were
aware. Of course, that looking
for a 75-foot liner hull in 200
feet Of water Is far different
from seeking q 30-foot subma-

Officially the Navy and its

high hopes Of pinpointing

MASON ON EDUCATION
Godgets No Help
To Lazy Student
By LESLIE J. MASON. ED.

Your article specifies that only
administrators can do anything
to correct faulty grading prac-
tices. I am sure I speak for sew
eral administrators who would
welcome your practical instruc-
tions in how to correct faulty
pactices in grading.
H. j., Rochester, Mich.
Encourage your teachers to
prepare and grade tests on the
basis of performance.
For example, a teacher in
fifth grade arithmetic or first
semester algebra, should grade
on performance in the course
and the mastery Of those skills
necessary for success in the
next course.
On this basis, teachers
grades have proved to be far
more reliable. A good teacher
with a good class might be JUS
titled in giving all AS and BIS.
The subsequent success Of the
students would prove his judge
ment to be correct.

Dear DR.. Mason:
Our son is in senior high
school. In this school, academic
grades are lowered in connec-
ton with certain offenses re-
quiring disciplinary action. For
example, from a c to a D for
cutting a class, regardless Of
the explanation. May we have
your opinion on this point?
&C, New Jersey.
This is a very unusual prac-
tice in grading. have always
been opposed to lowering
grades for disciplinary reasons,
as it is unjust. A grade should
represent the quality of per-
formance in the course work
and nothing else.

Dear DR.. Mason:

Dear Dr. Mason:
My husband and I plan to
buy our 14-year-old son a tape
recorder. While this seems to be
expensive, we think it will help
him improve his school work.
What do you think of one as q
study aid?
Mrs. w. NJ, Philadelphia.
The use of a tape recorder
in the study of foreign Ian
guages or public speaking can
be of real value to your son
provided he uses 1t consistently.
He should record, listen critic
ally, and then re-record, using
the same materials over and
over, always striving for i'm
provement.

Dear DR.. Mason:
I am in my second year of
French and find it hard to
study. Why do l avoid study
ing this subject and find no
trouble concentrating on other
subjects?
@ Mike, West Orange, N. j.
Something leads your mind
away from study whenever you
turn to your French lessons. 1t
may be that you wish you had
not signed up for the course.
But the fact is, you did sign
up for the course. You now
must stay with it, pass or fail.
Resolve to do the best job
you can, regardless of your
misgivings. Fill your mind with
plans of how you can master
the lesson at hand. Review the
plans every time your mind
Wanders. Be firm with your
self. AS time goes on it will be-
come easier to concentrate.
