Book Description

Elementary teachers spend considerable time advising and counseling while teaching pupils to read, spell and add. High school teachers find an increasing demand for assistance in educational, vocational, and personal matters. Colleges now see the need for offering guidance service to our older youth and adults. While much guidance can and must be done by the classroom teacher, some guidance teachers with special training must be available to help students. This book then considers the essentials of a good guidance program and the personnel necessary to make it effective. The four final chapters of the text deal with the budget, public relations, circulation of guidance information, and evaluation of the guidance program.
