Teachers Face ‘MechnicaV Kids
Elementary school teachers
will find a different style of
classroom this summer at Texas
A&M.

oroblems laboratory will solve
situations in a simulated class
room that will furnish every-
;hing from eraser-throwing third
graders to children with pronun
ciation difficulties.
The Education Department’s
one-semester-hour graduate cred-
t course will be offered 4 to 5
p.m. on Mondays, Wednesdays
snd Fridays during A&M’s first
summer session, June 3 to July
12.
“This unique program employs
the use of simulation materials
and will give elementary school
teachers and associated person
nel a chance to practice decision
making in a life-like but fictitious
classroom situation,” explained
Dr. Paul Hensarling, department
head.
Enrollment at June 3 regis
tration will be limited to 25, an
nounced Dr. Glenn R. Johnson,
assistant professor and course in

Film strips, sound color movies
and role-play cards of a Science
Research Associates simulation
package on elementary teaching
will place summer students back
behind the desk.
“As ‘teacher’ in the simulated
classroom, the student will iden
tify critical teaching problems,
select courses of action and ex
plain the rationale of decisions
made,” Johnson explained course
procedure. Problems of teaching
methodology, pupil behavior and
evaluation, routines and human
relations will be covered.
In th i fictional school, partici
pants will be given background
information on the district,
school, staff and general school
building features.
A faculty handbook, curricu
lum and audiovisual catalog, rec
ords of 31 fictitious pupils, pro
gress reports and sociograms will
supply the background and basis
for decision-making.
The new course is open to ele
mentary teachers, administrators
and regular A&M summer stu
dents. The simulation technique
was treated experimentally with
A&M student teachers in regular
semester seminars.

Timm Named National Committee Chairman
Dr. Tyrus R. Timm, head of the
Texas A&M Agricultural Eco
nomics and Sociology Depart
ment, has been named chairman
of a national group to select the
nation’s outstanding undergradu
ate professor in agricultural eco
nomics.
He was named head of the na
tional committee by Dr. C. E.
Bishop, vice president of Public
Service Programs for the Con
solidated Universities, University
of North Carolina. Bishop is also
president of the American Agri
cultural Economics Association.
The Agricultural Economics As
sociation is the professional so
ciety of agricultural economists
in the United States and largely
throughout the world.
Timm said he believes he was
selected because the Texas A&M
University Department of Agri
cultural Economics and Sociology
places great emphasis upon the
teaching function, including ap
propriate counseling of students.
“I am very proud that three
professors in the department have
won coveted university teaching
awards. Two of the professors in
the department—Dr. Alvin Woot
en and Dr. Robert Skrabanek—
have been named outstanding
teachers at Texas A&M in the
annual awards made by the For
mer Students Association,” Timm
said.
Dr. J. C. Grady, who recently
joined the department, was
named the outstanding professor
in the College of Agriculture
while at the University of Mis
souri.
