Mznneiska - IQ28 GRAMMAR GRADE COURSE The Grammar Grade Course is planned with the aim of helping the student understand the problems of teaching. Because the teacher in the grammar grades comes in contact with the pupils during the years in which they are most influenced by their associates, we aim to train teachers who will exert a desirable influence on the pupils. The students of the Grammar Grade Course are given subjects along a variety of necessary lines, and through the training school department, are kept in constant touch with boys and girls. RURAL DEPARTMENT The Rural Department of Whitewater State Teachers' College, aims to prepare, in one brief year, a group of students to teach that most difiicult of all schools, the one-room rural school. With this, preparation in mind, reviews, methods, demonstrations, and actual teaching, arc given to fit the student for his chosen work. Through first-hand contact with the training school children, these pros- pective teachers learn the real problems of rural teaching. TRAINING DEPARTMENT We learn to do by doing , so it is logi- cal to conclude that one learns to teach by teaching. This is especially true when the lirststeps in teaching are taken under the direction of trained supervisors. Teaching technique is the goal sought, therefore, the Training School Department is the center around which the several courses are organized. Our students are allorded through this depart- ment an opportunity to observe good teaching, to discuss and evaluate various types of class- room procedure, and to actually teach and manage classes of their own. 20
