In an attempt to find answers to these questions several case records of Runaways were read. It was found that the details of working out solutions to each individual Runaway's problems obscured the general characteristics of the Runaways as a group and the services offered them. It is the purpose of this study to compile, in statistical form, the measurable data from the case records of all Runaways known to the Atlanta Travelers Aid Society in a one year period. These data are presented in a manner that will permit their comparison with the data found in other studies of Runaways and studies of non-runaway groups"--Introduction.

Evaluation of Fletcherville School.
Creator
Davis, Zadie Aurelia, Edwards, W., Florida State University
Abstract/Description
The word evaluation, according to the definition given in the dictionary means "to appraise carefully". The Fletcherville School faculty has found, in the course of its study to date, that the word implies much more. It means now, among other things: finding a direction, testing to learn whether the school is moving with such purposes in mind, and planning ways to improve the situation. When emphasis is placed more on positive things, teachers lose their fear and no longer hesitate to take...

It means now, among other things: finding a direction, testing to learn whether the school is moving with such purposes in mind, and planning ways to improve the situation. When emphasis is placed more on positive things, teachers lose their fear and no longer hesitate to take the first steps necessary for success. This school has found that in evaluation, as in teaching, it is necessary first to set the stage properly.

The data for the study were collected from the hospital records of fifty-seven male patients to determine if there were marked differences on eleven social and medical descriptive items between twenty-four patients who had no high school education, and thirty-three patients who completed high school. Knowledge of marked differences not due to chance in the various social and medical descriptive items studied might be of help to the Committee in arriving at recommendations for patient care. The frequency distribution on sixteen possible Committee recommendations for patient care between the two sub-samples are given; to what extent the recommendations were followed also is indicated. If the data revealed differentiating items between the patients who completed high school and those who did not complete high school the Committee might show whether it would be feasible to make more recommendations for the patient population"--Introduction.

In reviewing the literature and conferring with social service administrators, it was pointed out that a basic criterion was needed in order to determine the positive effects of social service activities with neuropsychiatric tubercular patients. As the complexity of multiple interacting factors made a study of direct effect impossible, it was decided to compare social service activities and other factors to rapid and non-rapid movement of patients from Ward 14. This determined the association of other factors, in addition to social service activities, associated with movement and provided some basis on which further study of the effects of social service could be undertaken. An attempt was also made to show the association of specific characteristics of social service contacts with movement"--Introduction.

Such standards are concerned not only with the total educational programs of the junior colleges but also with the strengths and weaknesses of their various departments. As a result, during the past half century the standards have become increasingly definite and specific with reference to junior college libraries as their potential educational effectiveness has been given increasing recognition. The present study is an evaluation of a group of junior colleges in terms of these standards. The libraries chosen for study are those of accredited junior colleges of Georgia, and the standards used are primarily those of the Southern Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, supplemented by whatever norms for junior colleges at the national level have been derived.
