| Summary: | Many factors enter into the problem of remaking the rural schools, such as well-prepared teachers, satisfactory unit of organization, close and intelligent supervision, and redirected course of study. Of these, none is more important than the first. It is certain that the trained leadership needed in rural districts can not be fully realized until a staff of teachers, professionally trained, imbued with correct vision and real power, establish themselves in the rural districts as permanent teachers and community builders. Satisfactory data have long been lacking on which to base a campaign for better-prepared teachers. This bulletin presents a study that aims to lend assistance in this direction. First, it seeks to ascertain the preparation and efficiency of the staff of rural teachers now at work in the schools; and, second, it aims to summarize and put into available form what the normal schools, agricultural colleges, and other schools are doing for rural teacher training. Individual sections contain footnotes. (Contains 4 tables and 13 diagrams.) [Best copy available has been provided.] |
