Melte& 145 v Preface In October 1984 six national organizations were invited by the National Commission on Teacher Education and Professional Standards (NCTEPS) of the National Education Association (NEA) to join the Commission in sponsoring and appointing representatives to serve on a 13-member joint Committee on State Responsibility for Student Teaching "to consider the possible scope and dimensions" of such responsibility and "make appropriate recommendations." During the next two years the Committee met, deliberated, and published two reports entitled Who's in Charge Here? (NEA, 1906) and A New Order in Student Teaching (NEA, 1987). During the time the joint Committee was carrying on its activities. a related professional endeavor was also in progress. This was the project that came to be known as M-STEP (Multi-State Teacher Edo- cation Project) in which seven states banded together to explore inno- vative practices in laboratory experiences for prospective teachers with a major emphasis on student teaching. The project was funded by a grant under Title V, Section 505, of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1905. As the activities of both the Joint Committee and M-STEP were approaching completion, the Maryland State Department of Education submitted to the U. S. Office of Education a proposal entitled "The Role of the State Educational Agency in the Development of Innovative Programs in Student Teaching" for funding under ESEA Title V, Sec- tion 505. When the proposal was approved, the State Department con- traded with the WISPS to assist in planning and coordinating a national conference, which was held in Baltimore, October 21-23, 1908. The major aim of the Baltimore Conference was to bring together key people such as chief state school officers and other staff of state vii legislators, membersof state boardsof educem education departments, and col- don, representativesof professionalassociations, and school administrators todiscuss statewideplanning for policy lege faculty and innovative ideas andpractices making and organisationand to explore in studentteaching. the materials The Lontents ofthis book represent,for the most part, Baltimore Conference.We hope thevolume will prepared for the departments contribute to and have apart inshaping the role of state of education inteacher education. acknowledge the spesialcontribution madeby Miss I want to in the Geraldine B.

SENSFXBAUGH Maryland StateSuperintendent ofSchools February 1969 viii *NNW ,, si.- . ,v .;t : . f, ./ , , I; Introduction William ft. Drummond Associate for Teacher Education (Vice of the Superintendent of Public Instruction State of Washington At the Baltimore Conference, participants were invited to talk to- sether and to hear about strengthening the state's role in student teaching. The "state's role" and "student teaching" both were broadly defined by the conference plminers. We were given a number of docu . meats to read and we heard from the best minds in America either on what is being done or on what ought to be done to improve student teaching. This paper presents an overview and reaction to the papers and proceedings of the Conference, much of which is included in this book. I have organized my remarks into three topics: what I heard at the Conference, personal reactions to the Conference. and autunptions which underlie the Conference and this book and action steps I mom- mend for those who want to participate in improving student teaching. What one hears at a conference is sometimes not what one ought to hear, considering all the data being presented. And I have found that what I hear I. often quite different front what others hear. The follow- ing reflects my peculiar perceptions. At the opening session, hankie Beth Nelson gave a friendly, low- keyed talk about the way an anthropologist looks at the school and the school's purposes. (Ch. 1.) I heard her say that many of our organize- tions, our schools in particular. are destructive of people. Many of the people involved in schoolteachers and studentslearn that they cannot compete, cannot achieve, cannot do. I heard her call for another look at schools and school life, to see schooling u a cluster of tempo. rary systems (using Warren Bennis' language)close-knit social ar- rangements which do not persist in time but are important to selfhood and dignity. I heard her say that we need to help people in our schools e stablish close, satisfying personal relationships with others easily and quiddy. I heard Frani& Beth Nelson say that. for a lot of people who engage in it, teaching school isn't any fun; that working in state departments of education isn't any fun. Many people do not get kicks from work and feel that they should not. Work, according to our American ethic, needs to be distasteful or it is sinful. We need to learn to have fun in school. Learning and solving problems are fun. We do not necessarily have to make these activities feel like "worle At the first conference work session we were given a paper by Graham Pogue, a thoughtful and accurate paper, I think, from the per . spective of a director of student teaching. (Ch. 2.) He wrote about scheduling student teaching, the use of new media, the problem of making appropriate assignments, the nature of supervision, finance, expectations placed on the student, and the problems of trying to change student teachingall in a few pages. There are some folks who have written whole books on Just one of these topics. Aside hum the content of the discussion, the thing that impressed me most about the work session was that several people reacted to Mr.

Explore the timeline to see archival photographs, video, resources, and more. 1964 War on Poverty: On Jan. 8, President Lyndon Johnson takes up the cause of building a "Great Society" by declaring "War on Poverty" in his first State of the Union Address. The goal of the War on Poverty is to eradicate the causes of poverty by creating job opportunities, increasing productivity, and enhancing the quality of life. Watch this historic State of the Union Address. The Economic Opportunity Act of 1964 is enacted and includes programs such as: Job Corps, Urban/Rural Community Action, VISTA, Project Head Start and many more. Watch Small Miracles, a short video about these programs. Case for Early Education: As a former teacher in a one-room schoolhouse in Texas, President Johnson believes strongly that education was the key to breaking the cycle of poverty. Moreover, child development experts have found that early intervention programs could significantly affect the cognitive and socio-emotional development of low-income children. State of the Union, 1964 1965 Cooke Report: Dr. Robert Cooke sets up a steering committee of specialists to discuss how to give disadvantaged children a "head start." The committee develops recommendations that feature comprehensive education, health, nutrition and social services, and significant parent involvement. Read the Cooke Report [PDF, 47KB]. Head Start Launch: On May 18, President Lyndon B. Johnson officially announces Project Head Start from the White House Rose Garden. Head Start launches in the summer of 1965, serving more than 560,000 children and families across America in an eight-week summer program through Head Start Child Development Centers throughout the United States.

    Closing Session: Reflections of the History of Head Start Research

    4 Million and Counting: Reflections on 40 Years of Head Start Research in Support of Children and Families Presenter: John M. Love 1965--41 years ago. It’s hard to remember what an amazingly eventful year 1965 was: On January 4, President Lyndon Johnson proclaimed the Great Society in his State of the Union address. In February, the U.S. began bombing North Vietnam in operation Rolling Thunder. On Feb. 2, Malcolm X was assassinated. March 7 became known as “Bloody Sunday,” when civil rights marchers began their trek from Selma to Montgomery and were violently confronted by state troopers. A month later, in a one-room schoolhouse in Texas, President Johnson signed into law the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965, which we all know in its latest incarnation as No Child Left Behind. On August 11, the Watts riots began. That year, in Britain, Winston Churchill died—and J. K. Rowling was born. And at the Grammies, Mary Poppins won best recording for children. So with a spoonful of sugar and a ton of sweat and tears, a vast new program for children and families was underway. Within 3 years, Donald Rumsfeld, the new head of the Office of Economic Opportunity (OEO) would have Head Start as part of his responsibility, guiding the country through an early phase of a different war—the War on Poverty. Research began immediately. One of the first studies in the new Head Start context is a dissertation by an enterprising young University of Chicago doctoral candidate, Diana Slaughter, who investigated the maternal antecedents of African American Head Start children’s academic achievement.

    Play Guide for the Great Society

    Written by Robert Schenkkan Directed by Ron Pel us o O cto ber 6 —2 8 , 2 0 1 8 P L AY G UI D E THE PLAY It is 1965 and President Lyndon Baines Johnson is at a critical point in his presidency. He is launching The Great Society, an ambitious set of social programs that would increase funds for health care, education and poverty. He also wants to pass the Voting Rights Act, an act that would secure voting rights for minority communities across the country. At each step, Johnson faces resistance. Conservatives like Senator Everett Dirksen are pushing for budget cuts on his social welfare programs. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr, is losing patience at the lack of progress on voting rights. With rising discrimination against black communities in America, King takes matters into his own hands, organizing a civil rights protest in Selma, Alabama. Outside the U.S., the crisis in Vietnam is escalating. When the Viet Cong attacks a Marine support base, Johnson is faced with a difficult decision: should he deploy more American troops to fight overseas or should he focus on fighting the war on poverty within the U.S.? Time is ticking and the next presidential election is around the corner. In an America divided by civil rights protests and the anguish of Vietnam War, can Johnson pave the way for a great society?

    Toward a Better World: LBJ, Niebuhr, and American Human Rights, 1964-1966

    Toward a Better World: LBJ, Niebuhr, and American Human Rights, 1964-1966 JARED MICHAEL PHILLIPS In the fall of 1964, President Lyndon Baines Johnson had his first op- portunity to award the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Among those he choose to recognize was the scholar, activist, and theologian Re- inhold Niebuhr. Although the gruff and profane Johnson would ap- pear to have little in common with the cerebral pastor turned theologian, the President employed the teachings of Niebuhr to for- mulate and articulate his attempts to remake both the nation—War on Poverty and Civil Rights legislation—and the world—making hu- man rights the cornerstone of American foreign policy. Niebuhr’s Christian realism influenced policy makers and presidents for nearly thirty years, but it found its most forceful practitioner in Johnson, who praised Niebuhr for invoking the “ancient insights of Christian- ity to illuminate the experience and fortify the will of the modern age.”1 By clasping to the pragmatic Christian realism articulated by Nie- buhr, Johnson set out to establish social justice for America and then the world. The President’s consistent call for the reformation of so- ciety helped refocus liberal America’s mindset toward the beginning of a credible human rights policy, both at home and abroad.

Johnson National Historical Park, headquartered at Johnson City, and the Center for Texas Public History at Texas State University met to discuss a partnership for historical research related to President Johnson’s administrative role in conservation and environmentalism. Under the terms of the subsequent contract, graduate Public History students at Texas State University, working as a special projects class, identified, researched, and compiled information on eight distinct topical themes that provide greater insights into the larger context. Within the span of one semester, they conducted original research, and wrote and edited the following report, which is hereby presented to the National Park Service staff in fulfillment of the contract. Additionally, students compiled an extensive curriculum guide following the same general themes. That guide is separate from this published report and has been forwarded to park service personnel as a digital report.

He turned to the Job Corps, a federal program that trained young people from poor backgrounds. He learned to operate construction equipment, but his dream was to help people. On the advice of his Job Corps counselor, he joined VISTA—Volunteers in Service to America—often called the “domes- tic Peace Corps.” Both the Job Corps and VISTA sprang into being in 1964, when President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Economic Opportunity Act. This law was the main offensive of Johnson’s “war on poverty” and a cornerstone of the Great Society. VISTA assigned Alfred to work with a community of poor farm laborers in Robstown, Texas, near the Mexican border. There he found a number of children with mental and physical disabilities who had no special assistance, education, or training. So he established the Robstown Association for Retarded People, started a parents educa- tion program, sought state funds, and created a rehabilitation center. ▼ At age 20, Larry Alfred was a high school dropout, Job Corps graduate, VISTA VISTA volunteers volunteer, and in Robstown, an authority on people with disabilities.

    The Impact of the Great Society Upon the Lives of Families and Young Children

    ITCA Medicaid Resource and Technical Assistance Paper August 2005 The Impact of the Great Society Upon The Lives of Families and Young Children In May of 1964, the newly elected president, Lyndon Baines Johnson, unveiled his revolutionary plans for the Great Society. The challenge for the remaining century required the use of wisdom, Johnson explained, to advance the quality of our American civilization. ”we have the opportunity to move not only toward the rich society and the powerful society, but upward to the Great Society. It is a place where men are more concerned with the quality of their governments than the quality of their goods. The Great Society rests on abundance and liberty for all. It demands an end to poverty and racial injustice.” In 1965, Democratic majorities in the 89th Congress passed eighty of eighty-three major legislative proposals: an unparalleled record. By 1969, nearly all of Johnson's Great Society reform legislation had become law. The Great Society program became Johnson's agenda for Congress in January 1965: aid to education, attack on disease, Medicare, urban renewal, beautification, conservation, development of depressed regions, a wide-scale fight against poverty, control and prevention of crime and delinquency, and the removal of obstacles to the right to vote. Johnson reasoned that, in modern America, every citizen has the right to adequate health care, a full education, decent housing, and the opportunity to develop his or her own talents. Utilizing a variety of task forces composed of experts, Johnson’s
