Set Objectives To Meet Changes In Education "The one thing that appears certain about the educational needs of future generations is that they will not be the same as they have been traditionally. Unless we anticipate those needs intelligently and set out specific plans and objectives to tneetthem, we fail the future." This was the statement of State School Supt. Michael J. Bakalis Friday on announcing issuance of the second edition of Action Goals for the Seventies, the state's long- range plan for educational improvement from the state to the classroom levels. Both editions of Action Goals resulted from public hearings around the state at which educators, students, parents and others testified on the problems of education. The first edition of Action Goals was published in May, 1972. Bakalis aid: "Action Goals for the Seventies is the collective voice of educators at the state and local levels and thousands of Illinois citizens. It addresses itself to the needs of today's and tomorrow's students. I consider it one of the most important accomplishments of my ad­ ministration. "If Action Goals' com­ mitment for educational renewal is upheld by successive leaders of our schools in this state, it will offer th# basic PAGE 7 - PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 2, 1974 Different People want different things from a college education.

The new Action Goals, 143 pages long, contains two major parts: Creating and Evaluating the Goals (1971-1973); and, The Revised Goals - 1973: From Paper to Practice. The first part outlines the process of public involvement that preceded both publications, the debate, controversy and impact of the first edition and how thip af­ fected the new publication. Speaking of the public's in­ volvement in the development of the goals in Action Goals, Bakalis said: "Difficult problems, of course, seldom yield to easy answers. But problems, painfully and emotionally charged as they may be, must be dealth with boldly and not be permitted to paralyze an essential forward movement toward educational excellence. So the principal function of continuing public involvement in discussing and revisirig this document is: to clarify the mission of our schools and to charge the schools, the people they serve, and the people who serve them to achieve the very best that is in them." The second part of the book spells out the "substantive goals" for education. It also contains a list of specific ob­ jectives, most of them timed for completion by a certain date, that schools should achieve to reach the goals in Action Goals.

Bakalis described the section containing the specific steps for achieving the goals as "perhaps the most important part of the book." He said; "These objectives are program oriented, time specific, and product specific. This edition contains a progress report for each action ob­ jective, citing state and local examples of specific movement toward accomplishment of the objective." Bakalis referred to the list of more than a hundred projects in sixty-five school districts which names areas of progress toward t achieving the goals contained in the first edition of Action Goals. These examples of progress, he said, are only a few of the hundreds that could be mentioned. "To me, these local examples form the most exciting part of thfe book." The specific objectives in the second part of the document are designed to meet the following basic goals. That the educational system must: -- provide opportunities which help students master the basic skills of reading, com­ munication, computation, and problem solving. - -- provide an environment which helps students, parents, and other community members demonstrate a positive attitude toward learning. -- foster a feeling of adequacy and self-worth on the part of all students.

People \ can talk for hours about this very subject. Some believe that by re­ storing the values of ~a century ago, all problems would be solved. 1|his vle^y misses the point. V What values thenN should we strive for? The answer is obvious. We should strive for the univer­ sal, timeless values God has pass­ ed on to us. Sure, many of the values of yesteryear sound appro­ priate, but we must remember that they had their own problems back then - wars, murders, steal­ ing, poverty, disease and apathy. They, too>, must have wish.d for the values of the "old days" -- a century before them. But people and nations throughout all ages have always had problems, and probably always will. What then should we do? We - should all strive to seek the pur-, pose God has given us for our lives. We must also seek to adopt His values -- the values that span all generations -- love, peace and happiness. Haiti is the most densely populated country in the Western Hemisphere.
