Progress in home economics education has been marked in recent years. To the normal rapid increase in the number of high schools offering courses, the extension of systematic training in home making into the lower grades, the establishment of new courses in liberal arts colleges, and the more adequate support of departments previously organized has come increased impetus due to Federal and State legislation and to the recognition by war committees of their need of specially trained home economics women. The following topics are covered in this bulletin as they relate to home economics: (1) Home economics in the public schools; (2) State supervision of home economics; (3) County supervision of home economics; (4) State normal schools; (5) Colored schools; (6) Home economics in colleges and universities; (7) Effect of war on college courses; (8) Practice homes; (9) Practical application of food courses in the management of lunchrooms, cafeterias, etc.; (10) Smith-Lever extension work; (11) New phases of home economics; (12) Child welfare courses; (13) Newly established and reorganized departments; (14) Surveys; (15) Organization of women interested in home economics education; (16) Home economics and national service; and (17) Legislation relating to home economics.

Standardization of Medical Inspection Facilities: A Contribution to Modern Schoolhouse Planning. Bulletin, 1919, No. 2
Author: Berkowitz, J. H.
Date: 1919-00-00

The great war now ended has shown to every nation the priceless value of its citizens. The beginnings of the health supervision of schools and school children, made before the war, are now seen as movements of the greatest significance for national conservation. The growth of school health supervision in the United States in the past few years is indicative of its certain development in the years immediately ahead. As of 1915, 26 States have some form of statutory provision for school health supervision. There is also a constantly increasing number of cities providing organized health supervision of school children. This increase in extent is paralleled by the increase in thoroughness and effectiveness, which necessitates the provision not only of an adequate supervisory force of medical inspectors and nurses, but also adequate material equipment. This bulletin results from a careful study of the medical inspection facilities in the schools of New York and other American and foreign cities. Contents include: (1) A challenge from new South Wales; (2) A problem for educators; and (3) Standard medical inspection facilities. The following are appended: (1) Blank Form for Survey and Inspection of Medical Rooms; and (2) Typical Equipment and Supplies in Medical Rooms, New York City Schools.

Home Education. Bulletin, 1919, No. 3

The conservation of childhood and youth is a problem that is occupying the attention of educators, publicists, and welfare workers in this and other countries. Conservation of child life is not separable from the problem of conservation of womanhood. During the past two years, greater service was demanded from the women throughout the country. Some were called upon to take the places of men who had joined the army; some were left to assume the double duties of father and mother. Help must be given to broaden the outlook of the women, many of whom live in homes so isolated that opportunities for development are lacking. The viewpoint of the men who have been across the sea has been liberalized by contact with foreign lands and peoples. It will help in the readjustment of the returning forces if each agency of general welfare will consider the needs of the home in working out programs. This bulletin covers the following topics: (1) Schools for mothers in England and Wales; (2) The work of the United States Federal Government in home education; (3) The community problem--the need for cooperation between home and school; and (4) Educational material available from the State Boards of health to aid in home education.

Subjects: Music Education,Foreign Countries,Music Teachers,War,Teacher Supply and Demand,Enrollment Trends,Military Personnel,Military Service,Musical Instruments,Community Programs,Academic Standards,Standard Setting,Credits,Public Schools,Private Education

In instruction in music, as in other related fields, the outstanding feature of the biennium 1916-1918 is the interference or readjustment occasioned by the European War. On the whole, although there has been some serious disarrangement, the direct or indirect benefits overbalance the losses. In the present rapid summary it will be convenient to mention (1) one or two lines of disturbance from war conditions; (2) several directions in which these conditions have induced novel efforts; and (3) certain points of discussion or progress not connected with war conditions. The following topics are covered: (1) Depletion in the number of teachers and pupils; (2) Some decrease among independent schools; (3) The transference of music teachers into Army work; (4) Military band development; (5) Camp singing and community music; (6) Discussions about standardization; (7) School credits for outside music study; (8) Other points of progress in public schools; and (9) Notable features in private instruction.

Ninth Grade Centers: What the Research Shows. Information Capsule. Volume 0611

Date: 2007-06-00
Type: Reports - Research
Subjects: High School Freshmen,Grade 9,Grouping (Instructional Purposes),School Organization,Program Implementation,Intervention,Program Effectiveness,School Holding Power,Dropouts

Researchers have identified ninth grade as one of the most critical periods of time for intervention to prevent the loss of motivation, failing grades, and dropping out of school. This Information Capsule is concerned with the efficacy of ninth-grade centers or academies which isolate ninth-grade students into separate school buildings or in wings of existing schools to remedy the high retention and dropout rates frequently observed with students in this particular age group.
