“…Loring (50) reported on a study which used group discussion in English as a means to improve the mental health of three classes. The class in chemistry can be used profitably for vocational guidance, according to Pugh (66). Ojemann (63) stated that human relations can be improved thru physical education instruction.…”

THE 1953 issue of the REVIEW devoted to guidance pointed out that there was a dearth of sound research dealing directly with the function of the classroom teacher as a participant in the total guidance activities of a school; the statement is still true. On the other hand, one finds an increasing number of informal studies which examine some phase of the teacher's responsibility in assisting pupils in or beyond a guidance setting. Some of these studies can be classified as research altho many are opinion, discussion, or a recounting of actual experiences in applying principles or technics. It is reasonable to conclude that interest in clarifying the teacher's guidance role is increasing altho further research continues to be needed. Teachers as Guidance Workers-A Continuing EmphasisAmong association materials treating the place of the teacher in the guidance program were Guidance in the Curriculum (3) of the Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development and the Yearbook, Guidance for Today's Children (59), of the NEA Department of Elementary School Principals. A regional study, Guidance in the Public Schools (38), made by the Southern States Work Conference, contains a research section, "Guidance Needs of Elementary Teachers in the Southern Region." Federal and state education agencies have also been active in compiling materials which included topics or references dealing with the teacher's guidance function. Examples include publications of the U. S. Office of Education (27), the Virginia State Board of Education (80), and the California State Department of Education (10). Two texts on elementary-school guidance contained material outlining the classroom teacher's role; both Cottingham (14) and Bernard, James, and Zeran (6) devoted space to the subject. Many general guidance publications described the teacher's guidance function in one or more chapters: Books in this category included those by Ohlsen (61), McDaniel (52), Mathewson (55), Bennett (5), and Willey and Andrew (85). Other references, perhaps on the periphery of guidance, also gave greater emphasis to the teacher's responsibility as a guidance functionary. In this group was the 1955 Yearbook of Education containing a subsection by Strang (77) which discussed the teacher's guidance work.
