Social Studies Department Adds Two New Courses: MR. JAMES BURDETTE MR. WILLIS CLARK MR. FRANK DAMICO MR. LARRY EIKER Social Studies Department has expanded its curriculum and introduced new teaching methods to meet the needs of the student in today’s complex world. Besides the tra¬ ditional courses of geography, world history, American history, Virginia history, American government, two new courses, psychology and economics, have heen added. Psychology classes deal with the individual and his ad¬ justment to society. The study of economics gives the stu¬ dent an awareness of the principles and problems of economics today. A novel teaching method, team teaching, is used in all geography classes. The participating teachers exchange classes throughout the year so that they can instruct stu¬ dents in their specialized area. For example, Miss Fulcher taught units on Australia and Middle East; Mr. Clark instructed classes on Russia and the Orient and Mr. Bur- dett taught classes on Europe and Latin America. The students in these ninth grade classes rotated every nine weeks. Since the teacher is teaching the same subject to the three classes involved in this program he has more time for preparation and the student benefits by getting differ¬ ent approaches to one class. Freshmen learn of the development of foreign countries and current events. 20
