The Content and Method of Arithmetic. Superintendent BUNKER. This course, primarily for teachers and supervising principals, will make an exhaustive examination of each of the subdivisions of arithmetic as it is traditionally presented, to determine: (1) Whether there is not much in the usual presentation which should be eliminated because it is no longer useful; (2) Whether the change in the needs of society does not demand in each subdivision a change in the content, or at least a shift in emphasis; (3) Whether it is not possible to find an order and method of presentation in each case which has been tested by experience and shown to give the desired result with a considerable saving of time. The course aims to be practical rather than theoretical and experimental. To this end sheets containing supplemental exercises and problems on each topic will be distributed, in the hope that such a body of exercises and problems will render the use of the present state text more effective. Likewise, those taking the course will be expected to work frequently at the blackboard, in order to become familiar with the methods recommended, as well as to gain that accuracy and facility in the work which the teacher needs. This course will be of special interest to teachers in the grammar school. No University credit. M Tu W Th F, 10. 16 North Hall. PHYSICS.

Laboratory Exercises in Matriculation Physics. 1. Mr. SHELDON. A series of laboratory exercises intended to supplement defective preparation for the matriculation examination in Physics. Approved work in this course will carry credit for the laboratory part of the requirement; but the examination upon principles must be regularly taken in August or January. M Tu W Th F, 9-12, 1-4. 1 and 2 East Hall. 2. General Physics: Mechanics, Properties of Matter, and Heat. Dr. MCKAY and Mr. BABCOCK. Equivalent to the laboratory exercises of the Freshman course; credit to the extent of approving the notebooks will be given accordingly. Full credit for the Freshman course cannot be obtained unless examination upon both laboratory work and recitations is taken with the regular class in college. Admission to the course presupposes the satisfaction of the matriculation requirement in Physics. But other students of maturity and earnest purpose will be admitted at the discretion of the instructor. M Tu W Th F, 9-12, 1-4. 1 and 2 East Hall. 3. General Physics: Sound, Light, and Electricity. Dr. MCKAY. Equivalent to the laboratory course for Sophomores in college. Admission to this course will be confined to those who have, substantially, covered the ground of the Freshman course in Physics. It is especially intended to offer this opportunity to attendants upon previous summer courses. If the notebook is approved, and the regular college examination with the corresponding class is passed, college credit may be obtained for this work. M Tu W Th F, 9-12, 1-4. 4 East Hall. 4. Advanced Laboratory. Dr. MINOR. Laboratory work along special lines, offering opportunities for work of really advanced character. This course is especially planned for attendants upon previous summer courses. It is not intended for the removal of deficiencies in regular university courses.

Physiography of California. Assistant Professor HoLWAY. A study of the climate, productions, and relief forms of the seven physiographic provinces of California, illustrated by lantern slides and models. Equivalent to Geography 15.

Courses 1, 2, and 3 are designed for teachers of Physical Geography in the secondary schools. It will be noted that this year the work is restricted to land forms. General Geography: Content and Method. Superintendent BUNKER. The most typical features-historic, artistic, political, or commercial, as the case may be of each of the natural geographical areas of the world will be chosen; selected references, for the most part to current magazines, will be given on each to be read; and, with this as a basis, through discussions and lectures the attempt will be made to amplify the teacher's general information to such a degree as to make him the master |
