Show DESERET NEWS, Thursday, 4B N Blast To Jar S.L Panel Will Conduct g, 0" I April 17, 1969 -- IddSCOtioiTQ By PAUL SWENSON Deseret New Staff Writer As long as Americas schools reward poor teaching along with the good and brag about rather than the hardware quality of learning, educational progress will be negligible. This challenge was put to a group of Utah educators Wednesday by Dr. Robert F. Mager, one of the chief designers of a system of individual instruction for the public schools. V Wednesday's session of the 24th annual Aerospace Symposium at the Ramada Inn was devoted to an educational seminar. The emphasis continued today with a Logistics Educational Symposium. Our system is designed for mediocrity, essentially Mager told the educators. Ask yourselves what would happen in your school if a teacher were magnificently successful, succeeded in helping all students to achieve their objectives and gave them all As. Unless good teaching really matters and good teachers are paid better than poor we have nc right to ones, expect significant progress in said Mager, who education, holds three major research educational positions, coast-to-coa- Mager Is president of RFM Associates, Los Altos Hills, Calif., which serves as a consulting firm on instructional technology to education, military and the Industry. He is also research adviser instructional for systems,' Institute for American Research, Palo Alto, Calif., where he helped develop a comprehensive system of indiand Is vidual instruction, director of research for the Aerospace Education Foundation, Washington, D.C. One answer to effective teaching is the merit system approach, but such a system still has to be based on proper analysis of what good teaching is, Mager said. If we judge our schools on how quietly the students sit in their neat little rows, how many advanced degrees there are on the faculty, or how many overhead projectors the school has and how many volumes there are in the school library, were missing the point. Some educators have a orientation, Mager explained. Evaluation should instead be based on hardware Loose GLENWOOD SPRINGS, COLO. (AP) The shock wave from a planned underground nuclear explosion in western Colorado may be felt as far away as Salt Lake City, project officials said how many pounds of behavior has a teacher changed and how much has he increased students interest. Mager charged other teachers with what he called educational malpractice. The have succeeded in leaving their students with less interest in the subject than when they began. 'This is a required course, they say at the first of the year, and I don't like it any better than you do. Such a teacher is teaching aversion to education itself. A student learns to avoid things he is hit with whether it is a fist, a club or a book, Mager said. A teacher is using subject today. A spokesman for the Atomic Energy Commission said the proposed 40 kiloton blast, to loose underground deposits of gas and oil, would register about 4.5 on the Richter scale at ground zero. The blast, tentatively set for May 22, is planned at Grand Valley, Colo., near border. the The device will be set off inside a hole, some 8,500 feet underground, Known as Project Rulison, it will cost more than $8 million when completed and force of the explosion is equal to 40,000 tons of TNT. o matter as punishment who tells his students angrily, Alright, youre going to read four chapters tonight instead of one. nterviows For Librarian Interviews of several appli- cants for the position of Salt Lake City public librarian will be conducted IP soon, an ad hoc committee of the library board rep- orted today.

Court Rule Pleases County Aide B-- l that the county commission remedy this by new legislation. Concerning the authority to Issue subpoenas, Judge Wilkins held that the auditor has broad authority to subpoena individuals, but that his power to also subpoena documents and records is limited to seven elected county officials and those in their departments. These are the county assessor, attorney, clerk, recorder, sheriff, surveyor and treasurer- These are the departments whose books the auditor is with specifically charged auditing monthly. Further, the judge held that the auditor could only subpoena public documents directly connected with carrying out his duties, not private records or information. However, the judge held that the power to conduct investigations which may lead to criminal charges is not iy preempted by county attorneys office. That the such Investigations lead to may, incidentally, criminal charges does not the auditor from preclude indulging In them, the judge ruel However, the filing of crimi- nal charges must not be the main objective of the auditor in investigative proceedings, and they must be done in connection with specific duties of the auditor, the judge held. Although limiting the auditor's power of subpoena, Judge Wilkins said the auditor must not be straightjacket-ed- . He held that it is the auditor's right and duty to pont out any questionab'e claim or payment and he shoo'd mnii.iue to do so during the life of a contract. However, he stated that the auditor should not beat a dead horse, by continuing to harp on the same thing after once having pointed out what he feels is wrong with a payment or claim. And the judge held that the power of the county commission is final and absolute. Lets remember that the C'unty c:mmission is boss. It can just act, he said. His meaning was that the auditor can question claims but the commission can order them paid. In this regard he said the can commission require the auditor to complete an Investigation into a questionable claim within a and not reasonable time, continue to hold up payment Indefinitely. county regret.
