Marlan Cade Division Chairman New Equipment Updates Department PHYSICAL SCIE CE D MATH The department of Physical Science and Math stressed the principal involved in teaching the individual as opposed to teaching the classroom as a whole. Audio-visual aids were used to achieve this. With the packet materials the students were allowed to progress at their own rate of learning. This was par- ticularly helpful to the slow learners and handicapped students and did not hold back the fast learners. This method gave the individual the assurance of reaching their full potential. A complete set of tapes in trigonometry and algebra were bought. Also , a new analytical balance instrument was pur- chased for the chemistry department and two additional laser beams were added in the physics department. The addition of this new equipment made the chemistry and physics labs equiv- alent to any freshman and sophomore college labs. Three scholarships were given by this department this year. l an 1 A ' ' UIQ, nv v l.g T flcga, ' lag .. , M .tl '-'Ulla . 1. ., in at neg Qu.. is I I n 'f Ala . M h Ullng, ie Q lQiQilg.i:':,' 1 ..

Honors History Class Organized SUCI LSCIE CE Only minor changes took place in the Social Science Divi sion this year. An honors class, composed of mostly history majors was organized and taught by Mrs. Frances Grayson. An excellent audio-visual library was acquired with films purchased for psychology, history, government, anthropol- ogy , and geography. All these films were usable on an indi- vidual student level. On the spot observations in laboratory field work were made by visitations to the Legislature. Field trips to institu- tions of correction and mental retardation schools were also made. This was in keeping with the new method of simula- tion in teaching by exposing students to realisitc situations connected with their class. 3 - ' V , ...ri-W, ,,,,. ,,,,,,i - 'I M gf- . swan-rf.. , , , Neal Lawson, Division Chairman, is kept busy teaching classes in geography, sociology, and anthropology. 170 Mrs .
