Through this organization with its program of speakers, demonstrations, and panel discussions, students undoubtedly become better acquainted with the teaching profession and more prepared to teach. The outstanding aim of the Elementary Education Club is the development and maintenance of profes- sional relationships among its members. The Club members made inquiries relative to teaching problems and exchanged views related to the child and his cur- riculum. Seminars were devoted to examining modern expressed by spe- trends in elementary education as cial speakers in school systems or in allied organiza- tions or fields. At the spring meeting the club showed the N.E.A. Film entitled Team Teaching. Following this, a panel of Seminar members presented their per- sonal findings in the area of team teaching.
