Wwvm-nv W di' W. . .Wm 'i M - The history classes, both American and World, were ones which showed the past. This allowed students to study the mistakes as well as progress that was made in the past. The electives, such as Psy- chology and So- ciolo8Yf brought studies to a more personal level by stressing the in- dividual. ln social studies, students . . . Others And Our Country were encouraged to express opinions through this and other discussions. They projected not only their point of view but also others. With this, students were able to increase their awareness and understanding of the sg. i S world, in hopes that this would close the gaps that exist in both man's un- derstanding of him- self and his relationship with others. Working in this department were Mr. Roy Rogers, tdept. headi, john Allyn, jack Brown, Pennye Fraction, Pat- tress Green, james Gregory, Larry Hood, Suvess Ricks, and Nello Rimoldi.

The effective teaching of the science department involved a great deal more than the dis- tribution of knowledge. Realistic situations were used by the teachers to demonstrate the in- formation, which in turn, led to higher levels of student comprehension. In charge of the science department, was Mr. Robert Hartman, who added the dimensions of in- Moles, Molecules . terest to science. Mr. Hartman taught both advanced and basic biology, a course re- quired of every stu- dent in order to graduate. This year was Mr. Hartman's thirteenth year of teaching at East Bay. Students in Mr. Michael Otero's ecology class learned by ways of the Socratic method. This mode of teaching allowed students to learn by being questioned about things unknown to them prior to questioning. Teach- ing Chemistry Ifll biology was Mr. Harry Welsch. Over the past eight years, Mr. Welsch taught many future science majors the basic fun- damentals needed in order to attend college.
