Summary:
Dr. Parnes described a 6th grade program where detective stories are used to encourage creative problem solving. He also spoke of a high school where programmed learning texts are used. These texts contain gum and candy as reinforcement.
Dr. Williams describes a program involving teachers as he feels that teachers must know how to instill creative productive thinking in students. His training session for teachers is based on four points
- Teachers out of regular environment
- Share ideas & communicate on teaching methods
- Disseminate materials
- These project schools become studies for other schools
Dr. Taylor spoke on the lag time between research findings and educational change -- he felt that at present it is infinite. He fills that what we are doing is establishing the same basic educational systems but with more money.
