31 Jan 14 Dr. Mason pointed out that often students who fail in other professional programs requiring an MA or PhD, turn to teaching. This has a familiar ring. He feels that integrating subject matter and teacher training will help and India is moving in that direction. The teacher training program would then more closely resemble that in the U.S. At the present time the student gets 4(?) years of subject matter work and then his training in education. In 4 parts of India science teacher training centers are being developed. These centers are located in the science education departments. It is a 4 year program. The objective is to select high school graduates and give them an integrated program of science and education. The 4 training centers will not only prepare science educators but will also provide inservice training for teachers. He mentioned that Dr. & Mrs. Bingham (Univ. of Columbia sponsorship) said out to U.S. and bring in trained Indians in a program to develop science educators. They have also been involved in conducting educational surveys in India.
