Page 246 The Educational Screen about it so that they will set up their own film pro- duction plans." The sentences between the dots are omitted because they are not so glowingly compli- mentary. They raise nasty questions about cost, com- position, responsibility, social sensitivity, etc.—all of which are being saved for the Milwaukee meeting. * * * Paul G. Edwards, director of science and visual in- struction of the Chicago Public Schools, has a new job. He is now a member of the board of Examiners of the Chicago schools. Not just accident is this worthy promotion. It comes to lusty, curriculum-wise Paul G. Edwards in recognition of his vigor in developing the department of science and visual instruction of the Chicago Schools. * * * This department is bogged down with its fan mail. Several months ago the term, "Aids to perceptual learning," was introduced by Dr. John Hollinger, Di- rector of Science and Visualization, Pittsburgh Public Schools. "What did the D.V.I, think?" queried this department. How many thought is unknown; two wrote—Chester L. MacTavish, chairman of the Science Department in the Roosevelt Junior High School, Al- toona; and F. L. Lemler, head of the Bureau of Visual Teaching, State College of Washington. Liking the word, perceptual, but finding the word aids obnoxious, Visualist Lemler says of the former "it emphasizes learning rather than teaching," is "suffi- ciently inclusive," but the latter is "a weak sister." Says Lemler, "There is nothing compelling about it. It does not say 'these materials are vital and indispen- sable in school work.' " Scientist McTavish finds no fault with perceptual aids, lambastes visual education. "The term 'visual edu- cation,' " says McTavish, "oiTers opportunity for teach- ers to jump at conclusions regarding its significance while 'perceptual learning' should tie up more closely the use of sensory aids with educational psychology resulting in constructive thinking on the part of teachers." There is more to these letters, but no more letters on "aids to perceptual learning." Official Membership Roster - Department of Visual Instruction Adams, E. D. Elyria, Ohio Akins, Lillian M.
