Filmed in the best possible way. UNIVERSITY MICROFILMS PREFACE Difficulties become apparent in the historical compilation of this single categorical concept of educa tion when one considers the multi-faceted educational elements of specialization which are germane to each occupational area. Problems of gathering early voca tional trade and industrial research materials have been magnified as a result of incomplete or missing records because of carelessness, deaths and personnel turnover. This writer has been made aware of the fact that authen ticated historical documentation is extremely important to all educational areas, if for no other reason than that it creates a solid foundation upon which one may project or build toward the future. Those of us in vocational education submit that this type of education builds a bridge to a more meaning ful future heretofore reserved only for those with pro fessional aspirations. We, in turn, contend that voca tional education is an answer to the complex ramifica tions which have evolved from increased patterns of world-wide technological changes and population growth never experienced by any previous culture. -
