Guest educators spoke for the club, relating experiences and methods in teaching. FTA members delved into the workings of the instructional concept Killian was construc- ted around, Dr. J. Lloyd Trump's proposal, An Instructional and Educational Program for Inde- pendent Study. The real test for members came during a full day of practice teaching at Vineland Elementary School.
