摘要:

The notion obtaining widely in many fields of social effort that only in the larger and wealthier centers of population can we expect to provide desirable facilities and services appropriate to a universal need is not held by these authors with regard to the possibilities of a comprehensive and effective program of vocational guidance in small high schools. What are the elements of such a program, and how may it be organized into a systematic whole? Part of the following article deals with the collection and use of informational material about occupations; then comes a section on gathering and applying information about pupils. Counseling, of course, lies at the heart of the matter, and this receives its due attention. There is discussion of forms and records, of the integration of the guidance program with the curriculum, and of the importance of keeping in touch with pupils after educational or vocational placement. The suggested program, though it is not offered as an actual description of any particular program in operation, is based on observation and experience, and is by no means an expression of untried theory.

摘要:

Every great social movement has begun with its head in the blue sky of idealism and taken years to get its feet upon the solid ground of self‐criticism and realistic evaluation of results. Guidance is no exception. Its early days were days of propaganda; more recently the literature has been devoted largely to descriptions of guidance programs. Eventually we shall reach a period of mature self‐criticism, based upon the evaluation of carefully controlled experiments.Dean Kefauver and Mr. Davis here show that the thinking of leaders in the guidance movement is tending in this direction. Although an examination of 461 magazine articles on guidance, published in the last five years, has revealed only 140 which involved any systematic investigation, fifty‐one professors and ten directors of guidance have indicated their composite opinion that the research most needed at present is the evaluation of existing or experimental pro

摘要:

Unemployment, though not a primary cause of the present economic depression, has certainly been an aggravating factor. The national effort to pull out of the depression is directed in large part toward increasing purchasing power by speeding re‐employment. There is no need to labor the point that unemployment and the depression are closely related problems. That much is obvious to economist and layman alike, but when it comes to the causes of either, or both, opinions widely differ, even among economists. Honest folk agree that recovery from the existing emergency by adoption of temporary measures is not enough; something of a permanent nature should be done in the way of prevention and cure, but here again opinions widely differ. In part, the discussion of causation and future control relates to machines and technological change. We are told that we have passed from the Machine Age into the Power Age—what are the social implications of that fact, and is the fact itself thoroughly understood? Meanwhile, men are out of work. The human—or inhuman—side of unemployment is more important than its technical side, though it is largely from the latter approach, if we include social technics, that the solution must be found.Nine books that have recently appeared on unemployment and related or constituent problems are here reviewed. Dr. Lee of the University of California discusses a group of five, with special reference to the question: “Is unemployment curable—and how?” Two reports on technological (or technocultural?) change are considered by Professor Clark of Teachers College, Columbia University. Next Mr. Beckman of Adjustment Service, New York City, reviews two books that deal somewhat less with unemployment than with the unemployed. We feel that these three articles, taken together, form a fairly comprehensive survey of a subject that needs no
