IN THIS second issue of the Review of EducationalResearch in the field of teacher personnel, changes in the topics covered should be noted. Three chapters which appeared in the first issue have been omitted in the second, and three new chapters appear in the second Review; changes also appear in the content of one chapter.In a recent Review on the legal basis of education, a chapter on the legal status of the teacher was included. 1 It was not felt advisable to repeat this topic here, although it really belongs in this issue.
The fields of ethics and of teacher organizations did not offer enough material to justify chapters. The former chapter on teacher rating is included in this issue in a chapter on the measurement of teaching ability. Three new chapters appear in the secondReview on the following topics: "Local Residents and Married Women as Teachers"; "Teaching Combinations" ; and "The Improvement of Teachers in Service." The dates covered by the Review are as follows: in fields covered by the first issue of the Review, publications from November 1, 1930, to December 31, 1933. In fields not covered by the first issue of the Review, much material published previous to 1930 was included. EARL W. ANDERSON, Chairman, Committee on Teacher Personnel.
