Community resources utilized by the elementary schools of an industrial city in Massachusetts

Thesis (Ed.M.)--Boston University / It is the purpose of this study,
to determine the extent to which the elementary schools of an
industrial city in Massachusetts, are utilizing the resources
of the community. Although there is much material available as
to those community resources that are being utilized and best
suited for elementary schools, as well as suggestions and techniques
for making the best use of them, little data are available
as to a method or plan of determining to what extent the
elementary schools are utilizing the resources of their
particular community.
Through research, it is hoped that a representative list
of those community resources that are being utilized by individual teachers or groups of teachers throughout the country can be evolved, and a questionnaire, in the form of a check list,
built. In this check list, the community resources will be
classified and placed in the following categories: (1) Field
trips, (2) Resource Visitors, (3) Interviews with Resource
People, (4) Collections and Exhibits, (5) Contacts with
Community Agencies, (6) Local Resource Surveys, and (7) Community Service Enterprises.
