Work With Personalities
“The great advantage of teaching i* that you are working with personalities, rather than working with things," Dr. Olson said yesterday.
“Our conference, which we hope will encourage more people to enter tho teaching profession, ls carrying out th* principle of the White House'* Education Conference which has similar purposes,” h« added.
After Dr. Olson's address, the delegates will spilt up into 25 or more group* which will conduct informal panel discussions in Founders Hall. These panels will lie conducted by more than 100 school superintendents, principals, teachers, and teachers-ln-training.
Shortage Acute
Although other topics will be discussed, the main Idea of the panels la to show the future teachers how acute the teacher shortage Is in California.
There are more than 2 million children in state schools now, but ln five years the number will be Increased to 3 million.
Another fact which contributes to the shortage of teachers is that many qualified teachers teave the profession to secure better jobs, or get married. A recent bulletin of the School of Edu-
teachera in the United States quit teaching in the past four years.
Need* 65,000
“To staff tt* schools, California, alone, must find 65,000 new teachers In the next five years,” the bulletin said. “Yet smaller and smaller numbers of the state's young people are entering the teaching profession," it continued.
Mrs. Edith Weir, director of the SC Bureau of Teacher Placement Buivau substantiated this fact yesterday.
“The bureau last year receiver1 calls for 10,705 positions, and w> had only 1680 applicants registc ed," she said.
Need PE Teacher*
Mr*. Weir said the lient bets future positions in teaching, i the basis of unfilled requests, ai for girls’ physical educatio teachers and college instructor in physical science and mathe mafies. She added there ls also a tremendous need for teachers of the hai*d of hearing, sight saving, and the palsied.
She said that private military tutors, teachers for out-of-step positions, and teachers for foreign schools also are sought every year.
Questions niscusved
Here are some of the 36 other questions that tho panels will discuss with the future teachers tomorrow morning:
What experiences In high school and college will help me to become a good teacher? Does one have to get good grades to become teacher? Are there good
