ORONO WEEKLY TIMES, TIIURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 5th, 3 6 The Book.Sak Some cf the rnost deadening bits of literature are the reports of government appointed commis- sions. A notable exception is "Living and Leanning", common- ly referred to as the Raîl-Dennis Report. This is a report cf the Provincial Comnittee on Aims and Objectives of Education in the Sebools of Ontario. The at- tractive and stylish booklet of over 200 pages of excellent quel- ity paper is lavishly illustrated and generally :eadable. An extrernely lucid introduction tells, in part, why this committee was necessary: "Today, on every side, however, there is beard a growing demard for a fresh look at education,,in Ontario. The Committee was tcld of inflexible programs, cutdated curricula,: un- nelistic regulations, regimented organization, and mistaken ams of education We, heard fromn ah- enated studerits, frustrated 'teacli- ers, mrate parents, and concerned educators. Many public organiza- tions and private individuals have told us of their growing dis- content aid lack of confidene in a seh ool system which in their opinion, lias become outmoded and is failing those it exists to serve." The introduction further points out: "The cbanging patterns of living, of working, and of recreýa- tion require that the educational system prepare the children of tomrrow te live in a world vast- ly different frein that of thîs generation." "Living and Learning" is -must reading for both.critics and cham- pions of the present educational systein, of Ontario.
