Subjects: Superintendents,Boards of Education,Educational History,Urban Schools,School Districts,Educational Administration,Salaries,Supervisors,Central Office Administrators,Administrative Organization

In this bulletin are given the salaries paid administrative and supervisory officers in cities having a population of 25,000 or over, also the salaries paid all employees connected with the school administrative offices in cities having a population of over 100,000. Unfortunately some of the superintendents in this group of cities did not report with the same degree of fullness of detail, as the request for information was not interpreted in the same way by all to whom it was sent. But, upon the whole, the data are sufficiently complete to furnish valuable information to boards of education and others making a study of the salaries superintendents, supervisors, and other persons connected with the various administrative offices.

The Reorganization of Mathematics in Secondary Education: A Summary of the Report by the National Committee on Mathematical Requirements. Bulletin, 1921, No. 32
Author: Department of the Interior, Bureau of Education (ED)
Date: 1922-00-00
Type: Historical Materials
Subjects: Geometry,Educational Change,Mathematics Instruction,Secondary School Mathematics,Symbols (Mathematics),Required Courses,Advisory Committees,Instructional Improvement,Educational Objectives,College Admission,Mathematical Concepts

The National Committee on Mathematical Requirements was organized in the late summer of 1916 under the auspices of the Mathematical Association of America for the purpose of giving national expression to the movement for reform in the teaching of mathematics, which had gained considerable headway in various parts of the country, but which lacked power that coordination and unified effort alone could give. Above all, it was felt that in order to give to the ultimate recommendations of the committee the authority and effectiveness which they should have, it was necessary to arouse the interest and secure the active cooperation of teachers, administrators, and organizations throughout the country--that the work of the committee should represent a cooperative effort on a truly national scale. The results of the committee's work and deliberations are presented in this report. The national committee expects to maintain its office during the year 1921-22 and perhaps a longer period. It is hoped that in this way it may continue to serve as a clearing house for all activities looking to the improvement of the teaching of mathematics in this country, and to assist in bringing about the effective adoption in practice and recommendation made in this report, with such modifications of them as continued study and experimentation may show to be desirable. Chapters include: (1) A brief outline of the report; (2) Aims of mathematical instruction--general principles; (3) Mathematics for years seven, eight, and nine; (4) Mathematics for years ten, eleven, and twelve; (5) College entrance requirements; (6) List of propositions in plane and solid geometry; (7) The function concept in secondary school mathematics; and (8) Terms and symbols in elementary mathematics. The bulletin concludes with a synopsis of the remaining chapters of the complete report. An index is included. (Contains 2 tables and 30 footnotes.) [Best copy available has been provided.]
Music Departments of Libraries. Bulletin, 1921, No. 33
Author: Department of the Interior, Bureau of Education (ED)
Date: 1922-00-00
Type: Historical Materials
Subjects: Music Education,School Libraries,Music Teachers,Librarians,Library Services,Questionnaires,Public Libraries,Library Materials

In this bulletin, the Music Teachers' National Association committee on the history of music and libraries presents the summaries of the questionnaire prepared by the committee and sent out by the Bureau of Education in 1917-18. This is the first statement to show the condition and resources of the music sections of public and school libraries, containing 5,000 volumes or over, throughout the United States. The result is both encouraging and discouraging. It is encouraging in that the report shows a fairly wide dissemination of considerable music libraries throughout the country, with some collections of first rank. It is encouraging for the reason that many more libraries report increasing interest in the music departments, in comparison to the number where music interest is stationary or decreasing. It is encouraging because many of the librarians who report small collections are careful to note that the reason therefore is recent installation of the section, perhaps even the youth of the library itself, or lack of room or of other facilities. The discouraging feature is the lack of interest shown, though not more frequently than might be expected, by librarians, music teachers, and music lovers. One of the prime objects of the committee is to deal with this matter, and now that the information has been collated, prompt steps will be taken. Appended is &quot;Music in Our Libraries&quot; (excerpts from an article by O. G. Sonneck), and a Bibliography of Music. An index is also included. (Contains 1 note and 6 footnotes.)

How shall a project be organized so that the subjects in the school program shall properly function and shall contribute to the effective working out of the central idea around which the project must concentrate? How shall an untrained teacher be able to formulate her subject matter in terms of projects unless she understands the function of each subject? An attempt is made in the first chapter of this bulletin to outline the proper function of each subject "according to its relative and absolute educative value" and to indicate what the child's natural reaction to this material becomes in his educative process when it is organized In terms of projects. The second chapter, "A series of projects in civics, history, and literature: Reorganization of work in a mill village school into a series of projects," deals specifically with a series of projects which have been worked out in several elementary schools according to the fundamental principles laid down in Chapter I.

Malnutrition is a term used to indicate a general condition of less than normal physical and mental vigor. While the causes of malnutrition  are  many, incorrect or inadequate diet appears all too often as one of the causes. School feeding, which affords not only an opportunity, to supplement the home food supply but also to teach correct food habits, becomes a most valuable agency in combating the condition. This monograph is presented with a desire to aid communities in making school feeding a really effective social agency. In order to determine the true relationship between malnutrition and school feeding, we shall first consider briefly the problem of malnutrition and, second, the development and present status of school feeding both in New York City and other communities in relation to this issue. Topics discussed in this bulletin include: (1) Malnutrition; (2) Anthropometric Method of Diagnosis; (3) Grading of Nutritional Defects; (4) The Extent of Malnutrition; (5)  Conflicting Data; (6) Data of Careful Observers; (7) Estimates in the United States; (8) Causes of Defective Nutrition; (9) Effects of Malnutrition; (10) Brief History of School Feeding; (11) The English Movement; (12) France; (13) Other European Countries; (14) United States; (15) The Practice of School Feeding; (16) Experience of Great Britain; (17) Experience of France is School Feeding; (18) America; (19) School Feeding as a Remedy for Defective Nutrition; (20) Other Methods of Attacking Defective Nutrition; (21) The Nutrition Class; (22) Teachers' College, Columbia University; (23) The Bureau of Educational Experiments; (24) The Role of School Feeding in the Malnutrition Program; (25) What Type of School Feeding is Most Effective; (26) The Educational Aspect; (27) To What Extent Ought the Lunch Service be Self Supporting; (28) The Provision of Free Meals; and (29) Public Control of School Feeding. Menus of meals served at various city schools throughout America are provided. A bibliography is also included. (Contains 3 charts.) [Best copy available has been provided.]

The standards and educational practices of all higher institutions are scrutinized now as never before in history. For the most part these examinations relate chiefly to undergraduate and professional schools and colleges. It is, however, important that the graduate divisions in universities should lead the way with superior requirements and standards for graduate work. In this field the committee on standards of the Society of College Teachers of Education, under the direction of Professor Leonard, V. Koos,  of the University of Minnesota, has done some pioneer work by conducting an investigation of the graduate standards and practices in college departments of education. The study reveals valuable information which should be brought to the attention of the higher institutions in this country. Following a introductory section detailing the scope and method of the Study," topics presented in this bulletin include: (1) Admission and prerequisites; (2) Residence requirements; (3) Credit requirements; (4) Distribution of the work; (5) The administration of courses in education; (6) The thesis; (7) The foreign-language requirement; (8) Examinations; and (9) The staff.
