Synopsis
Excerpt from Assignment of Work Time Schedule Suggestive Programs: For 1911-1912
Method of Grading - The method of grading combines daily efficiency with efficiency in examinations. The teacher's esti mate is valued two-thirds and results of examinations one-third. This method is rendered still more equitable to the pupil, through making each subject share the same responsibility in determining promotion as it shares in the daily time schedule.
Size of Divisions - Principals are directed not to create divi sions' C, B, or A with a less number than fifteen pupils. No more than two divisions are to be assigned to a room. When two divisions are assigned, these should be consecutive, to wit, C and B, B and A, or A and C.
Adaptation of Instruction - When two divisions are assigned to a room, there are separate classes in arithmetic and reading in all grades; in grammar in grades VII and VIII; in geography in grades IV, V and VI; in history in grades VII and VIII. In all other grades the two divisions in these studies are combined. All pupils in language, spelling, German, music, drawing, physical training, and physiology are taught in one class. In this way the Old type of double grade is abolished.
