- Authors
Lee, J. Warren
- Abstract
The article focuses on the situation of teachers who teach natural sciences in Negro high schools of Louisiana. Questionnaires were sent to 60 different high schools for Negroes to collect data on their situation, to use that data in the improvement of the natural science courses at Southern University and to improve the guidelines of Negro high schools in Louisiana. A table showing 73 natural science courses is given. The augmentation of natural science programs of high schools has been suggested by the Department of Education of Louisiana. Another given table shows that the natural science teachers of the state's Negro high schools are quite well experienced. The lack of proper equipment and materials forces teachers to take students out on field trips. To top it, the climatic conditions of Louisiana allows fields trips almost throughout the year.
