Abstract

How well are high school teachers selling their courses? Do they have satisfied customers? What courses are most popular with students? Are the high schools attempting to teach subject matter that is repugnant to students? Are some teachers selling their courses better than we are selling the courses we teach? What are some of our weak­nesses and faults as teachers? What impression are we as teachers making on our students?

This study is an attempt to find satisfactory answers to the above questions. Let us know the truth and face it as progressive teachers. We should not envy the more successful ones, but rather try to learn their methods and then give them competition. No professional man or institution should fear criticism and truth. We should find the weakest link and set about to strengthen it or replace it with a better one. So we hope this study will tend to awaken interest in the "Student Centered" school in which the student is most important.
