The problem of this study is to evaluate methods of reporting pupils' school progress to parents and to discover trends in reporting which are revealed in educational literature and school practice.

This study was an investigation and an evaluation of the pupil record and reporting systems used in twenty elementary schools of Hill County. The purposes of this study were: 1. To establish criteria for evaluating the pupil record and reporting systems of these elementary schools. 2. To determine the adequacy of the pupil record and reporting systems of these elementary schools in terms of the criteria set up. 3. To offer recommendations for changes that could be made for the improvement of the twenty elementary schools of Hill County.

The history of human progress is also a history of the growth of evaluative processes. From simple types of self-analysis to complex stages of appraisal wherein survival depends on continuous research and intensive evaluation, human progress has gone hand-in-hand with evaluation. Concomitant with the evaluative process has been the interpretation and transmission of evaluation to the individuals concerned.

The purpose of this study was to study the effects of increased teacher knowledge of students' individual characteristics on students' religious attitudes and achievement in Seminary. It was based upon the rationale that when teachers have more knowledge of each student's characteristics, they can be more effective in planning for individual needs. One result will be that students' behavior and attitudes will be affected positively because their needs are more fully satisfied and interests more effectively utilized.

An interactive information system has been developed for the College of Engineering to promote faster and more accurate trial advisement interviews between professors and the students they advice. This system also provides departmental administrative personnel with information to guide course scheduling. The system has the capability of providing the following information concerning undergraduate students enrolled in the College of Engineering: 1. A student's academic progress toward graduation. 2. A projection for four quarters of enrollments in engineering core courses. 3. The current status of any course offered as a requirement for obtaining a Bachelor's Degree in one of the Engineering disciplines. 4. The current status of any program leading to a Bachelor's Degree in any of the Engineering disciplines. The system provides the user with the additional capabilities to: 1. Update the database containing information pertaining to students enrolled in the College of Engineering. 2. Update the database containing information concerning courses offered as a requirement for obtaining a Bachelor's Degree in one of the Engineering disciplines. 3. Update the database containing information concerning the degree programs offered by the College of Engineering. The system is user oriented and operation does not require any knowledge of computer programming. Complete documentation is available to facilitate trouble-free user operation and programming any desirable additional capabilities in the future.
