Guinea Pigs?

Superimental Pupils Experience Did Them Good.

OLUMBUS, O., July 8 (U, P). C —A written criticism on progressive education by the 55 members of this year’s graduating class of University High School, model experimental institution on the Ohio State University campus, was published today. In a book entitled, “Were We Guinea Pigs” The class found certain defects and many advantages in the system of education that permits the student to plan his study courses and that recognizes no conventional grading of ability. The book was published in lieu of a class yearbook. The students criticized language courses, which they thought were not well organized. They doubted the value of algebra and geometry because there is little use for them later, so they aiscussed higher mathematics and decided “while we are learning to do this, we were learning a very definite method of thought.” ® n =

Say

HEY praised their “model” education on the grounds that it taught them to help themselves and made them capable of independent and impartial thinking. They admitted mistakes in planning some courses. They did not take tests and get grades as students in other schools. On this phase they reported: “In this school, we are judged against what we are capable of doing, rather than against the rest of the class. This encourages us to do our best and does not allow a brilliant student to become lax or a poor student to be oppressed.” Of their own viewpoint, the students wrote: ‘The majority of us tended to be liberal, an attitude which seems to be natural at our age.” = = = HEY thought the study human reproduction and heredity was “one of the best studies in the science course.” “It made a better feeling and understanding between the bovs and girls,” they wrote. “We realized that love is a very natural desire and so we overcame a great deal of our self-consciousness.” In sunumary, they wrote: “We believe that our six-vear experience has been very valuable to us and that its advantages far outweigh its disadvantages. Mavbhe we were guinea pigs, but we. our parents and our teachers are still glad that we took the chance.” The book was not edited by teachers except to correct obvious errors of grammar or fact.
