MR. ROLLIN B. CHILD. President District 274 School Board: “If nothing else students learn responsibility and develop the ability to program their own time. This I think is important whether they go on to college or not. It's particularly important for students going to college because then immediately they're in a situation requiring personal responsibility, and the same thing is true throughout life. MR. D. ECKBERG. Chairman Social Studies Department: More individualized instruction—that's what we're striving for. One of the means to get there is through behavioral objectives by which the student is told exactly what he must do. Then he may go about learning it in many ways. Students might be encouraged to go on to exceed the teacher's objectives. and from there the sky could be the limit. MR. D. R. COPPINS. Principal: The belief is of course that we're moving from the traditional type of instruction that has been teacher-dominated to one in which the students benefit by self-expression, study subjects in depth on their own initiative, and develop their own responsibility ... I think it's also important to stress that Modular Scheduling is a process of development and that that process is a continuing one. KRIS HENNINGSGARD. Senior: I think the problems with Modular Scheduling came because everyone was sort of thrown into the system. When we become more accustomed to it. a lot of the problems will be solved. Students will be able to take care of their time: teachers will be able to move faster: there'll be less vandalism.
