National Survey of the Education of Teachers. Bulletin, 1933, No. 10. Volume I: Selected Bibliography on the Education of Teachers

Overview & Synopsis

In 1930 a number of organizations interested in teacher preparation asked for a survey by the Federal Government in order to secure usable information applicable to the larger problems of teacher education. Congress subsequently appropriated funds for this investigation, and the survey extended from July 1, 1930 to June 30, 1933. The first section in the survey which could be prepared for publication was the Selected Bibliography which constitutes this volume. This classified, annotated bibliography concerns itself with the education of teachers, rather than with teaching, up to June 1932. Topics include: (1) General references on the education of teachers; (2) Accrediting and standardizing; (3) Administration and organization; (4) Buildings and equipment; (5) Business and finance; (6) Comparative education of teachers (foreign countries); (7) Curricular and instructional provisions for teacher preparation; (8) Evaluation of the education of teachers; (9) History of the education of teachers; (10) In-service education of teachers; (11) Personnel--faculties; (12) Personnel--students; (13) Personnel--Public-school teachers and administrators; (14) Placement and selection of teachers by administrators; (15) Surveys and comprehensive studies of the education of teachers; and (16) Unclassified references. An author and a subject index are included. [Best copy available has been provided.]
