The bulletin was prepared as a guide for school administrators and teachers of industrial arts in the elementary and secondary schools of Mississippi. Chapter 1 discusses the philosophy and goals of arts education and defines terms used in the guide. Chapter 2 gives specific information pertaining to organizing and administering an industrial arts program. Emphasis is placed on desired qualifications for industrial arts teachers, inservice training for staff improvement, community involvement, suggested course sequences and objectives, student clubs, and budgeting and purchasing. Suggestions to the school administrator for planning an industrial arts program are discussed in chapter 3 in terms of mandated standards and codes. Chapter 4 covers suggested laboratory procedures emphasizing student involvement. Course outlines and lists of suggested projects designed to cover four areas of teaching (industrial crafts, the multifield concept, major-field concept, and mechanical drawing) are presented in chapter 5. Chapter 6 provides an introduction to modern industrial procedures by way of a student run corporate organization. A unit rotation chart, diagrams of an industrial arts multifield laboratory and class project storage rooms, a tools and equipment list, State assistance services, suggested forms and plans for a woodworking project are appended.
