Expert Sees Advertising {New Report Cards For Report cards going home with students of York Region‘s 14 secondary schools have a new look this year. At a meeting December 20. trustees of York County Board of Education had a preview of the new type of computerized cards. They are the work of the board's Co-ordinator of Infor- mation Systems Frank Pogue and Dave Maven. who is in charge of the board‘s data control centre. The two men spent some time with a group of York County teachers. visited ‘individual schools and resear- ched reporting in other areas before evolving the design. ‘ The reports consist of three sheets eight and one-half by 14 inches interleaved with carbon paper. They can provide infor- mation as to the student‘s year level. the level of difficulty at which individual courses are being taken, the student‘s mark in either numbers or letters. the j’class average and the student‘s rank among those taking the course. 7 The purpose of this, trustees included on the card is made‘ at school level. A principal may choose to show a student's stan- ding or not. Such decisions will probably be reached in staff meetings. The reports provide space for“ teacher comments. But here, again. there is some freedom of‘ choice. A teacher may choose from among a list of 200 coded comments (assembled for the computer by a committee of vice-principals) or he may insert hand-written comments hr each student. The report shows two terms. and when the second term re- port is sent home it will repeat the information on the first term report so parents may make easy comparison. At the end of the school year the report can show credits ac- cumulated in each subject instead of teacher comments. receive the second carbon copy of the report. i It was explained that the rea-i son for the "custom built" re-i ports is to broaden its usefulness in the system. Previous comput-l erized reports had been desig- ned by the Department of Edu- cation and lacked flexibility. The new York County re- ports can be used for compil~ ing honor roll lists in individ~ ual schools as well as for re- porting to parents. They will also be useful in developing course achievement medians, averages, failure rate, etc.. across the country. Use of the new reports is not arbitrary. Principals may choose to use them as they wish. They can also be used for elementary school students if desired. The data control centre is used for many things other than storage of informaion from the reporting system. Maven also The sheets inches papen Since failure is a dirty word in education circles. the reports are designed to avoid causing embarrassment to students at the bottom of the class. Those who rank in the lowest fith are shown as in the "lowest quin- tile.“ (A trustee Was heard to re- mark, “I wonder how long it will take the kids and their parents to figure that oneoutL" resuess mghts' lines more forcefully.

Space for notices from the school is also available. This can include information about inter- views. parents‘ nights. next term‘s examination schedules‘ option sheets, etc.. as the school wishes.

The Japanese do not know enough about Canada or its products. except for wheat, lumber and ores. The United States and Europe sell plenty of canned goods and other products in Japan. Why isn't Canada? For a start, Canada should exp10it and advertise its food lines more forcefully. RICHMOND HEIGHTS CENTRE. RICHMOND HILL Open Thursday & Friday Evenings ’til 9 pm.

The top floor of the Mill is not open to the pub- lic, as yet, but it is hoped that by spring, artists and craftsmen will ply their trades for onlookers to enjoy. At the same time the nature trails around the mill will be passable again.
