?HURSDAY, MARCH 6th. 195fl THE CANADIAN STATESMAN BOWMANVILLE. ONTARIO fAGE TITREN .(Speclal to The Statesman by Wm. G.. mes) Ottawa: «' EucXýn is in a 0 race with world wide catastro- * phd" and "money xill cureý mnuch of Canada's educational ailments" were two of the op- ening remarks that pervaded znuch of the thinking at the first Canadian Confereiace on Edu- cation held in Otba,;wa recently. These rernarks were coupled with delegates in-the-corridor quips of what will premier Duplessis think of ail this". "Edu,"ýation is aur ofliy hope, o)ur chIllenge, in the peaceful competition of the future" said Dr. Wilder Penfie!d world fam- Our Montreal nc'n"1ostir.eon and chairman of the conference.

Leading educators from Bn- tain, Russia, United States and Canada speaking on "The Pur- pose of Education" were among the 74 speakers. Every aspect a! education was thoroughly in- vestigated and discussed by ex- perts'on every subject.' Concrete suggestions and re- solutions were hammered out by the delegates through their eight workshop discussion groups. Delegates attended groups of their own choice ta discuss, in the two-day period devoted ta workshops, Build- ing and Equipment, Education for Leisure, Financing Educa- tion, Higher Education, Organ- ization and Curricula, Role of the Home in Education, Special NeLeds in Education and Teach- ers-Quantity and Quality. Delegates through their work- shops put fonward many resolu- tions and suggestions. Some of t1iese are- Advocate Second Language Provincial educational auth- orities should introduce the study of a second language at the grade III or IV level. This would mean the study of French in English schools and the study o! English in French language schools. The tax load on neal proper- ty in support of education reached a point beyond which further taxation of this nature would be unneasonable and, therefone, other sources o! re- with the efxclusve,? completely polis9hed ;Adae T here's a troth ta be pligbted, a new life ta begîn.

Candidates for entrance ta the teaching profession should be required to have complete senior matriculation or equiva- lent, and that the reauired pro- fessional preparation should beu established immediately at a minimum of two additional years, with a view to the adop- tion in the near future of a minimum of four years of ac- ademie and professional study, and that permanent teaching certificates or diplomas be grant- ed only ta pe'-sons who have met these standards. Hlh Minimum Standards In this same vein it was pass- ed that qualified teachers es- tablish themseives more firmly as a true profession with a high minimum standard for admis- sion ta the profession and them- selves establish and enforce re- gulations concerning admission and certification. It was felt by the delegates that children in rural areas should be provided with the saine standard of education as children in urban areas and that provision be made ta sup- ply qualified teachers in rural areas, possibly by the payment of a bonus or other form o! ex- tra compensation. Due ta increased leisure time for Canadians the Conference urged that maximum use be made of school buildings out- side of scho-ol hours. Importance of Television Television in the future will undoubtedly become an impor- tant instrument in the class- roomn and it was resolved that extensive experimentation in educational television program- ming be undertaken at the lo- cal, provincial and national le- vels. Delegates also pointed out that television should be con- sidered ini future designs of school rooms. A TV set and one good teacher may be able to look after a much larger num- ber of students per classroom than at present. Universities, if they are toi discharge their national obliga- tions, must have greatly in- creased financial support for basic scientific support and re- lated post-graduate training. The Provinces are urged ta ex-. pand facilities for technological education. Ail handicapped children should be provided with the opportunity ta develop their capacities ta the maximum. To achieve this the provinces are urged ta provide adequate fa- cilities for research, education, employment training and place- ment services for those in this category. Take More Active Part Home and School and Par- ent-Teacher organizations were urged ta take a more active in- terest in the curriculum and the quality o! teachers in their respective schools. These are only a few of the many recommendations that were discussed at this busy con- ference. In a few weeks' time abook cavering the complete proceedings WiIl be published Ail individuals and groups in:. terested in education would be advised ta obtain a copy and ta read it carefully.
