C «TA Waterice Chranicie, Woedneedey, February 14, 1968 A major objective of the proâ€" gram is to attract more univerâ€" sity graduates with mathematics ppecializetion into the teaching profession. Under the coâ€"operaâ€" tive teaching option plan, graduâ€" ates of the fourâ€"year courses in honors mathematics would have 16 months of high school experiâ€" ence. Graduates of the three year general course would have 12 months‘ experience in the schools. "Sthdents will take the reguâ€" lar mathematics program with option subjects in areas related to secondary school teaching, such as psychology, philosophy, history and science. During their terms in the school systems they will be able to progress through every phase of a teacher‘s duties, from marking papers and conâ€" ducting tutorials to practice teaâ€" ching." Alex F. Duncan, superintendâ€" ent of secondary schools, Kitchâ€" enerâ€"Waterloo high school board, said, "with the University of Waâ€" terloo located in our own comâ€" munity, the new coâ€"operative mathematics teaching option should be a great boon in heipâ€" ing our local schools to obtain mathematics teachers. ‘"The heads of our mathematics departments took part in the planning of this program which is designed to provide a great deal of experience in teacher deâ€" velopment and education." The Waterloo plan has already been endorsed by the Ontario Seâ€" condary School Teachers‘ Federâ€" ation. School board officials are enthusiastic about the program and its potential. Dr. Petch stressed that acaâ€" demic content would not be reâ€" duced. . The new option in"the ceâ€"opâ€" erative mathematics program was announced by Dr. Howard â€" E. Petch, acting president. It will be a modified version of the highly successful eoâ€"operative edâ€" ucation programs, which, up to now, have been oriented to inâ€" dustry and government service. help increase the number of high school mathematics teachers will be introduced this fall at the University of Waterloo.

Here‘s how it will work: Students will take their first year studies in the normal manâ€" ner, from September to May. They will enter the teaching opâ€" tion when they begin the seâ€" cond year of their course in the, following September.
