MOORES fiYCLJS d TO I STORE - if-U KIWIS CLUB TO HELP IN REMEDIAL TEACHING Instruction of Non-visual Children Carried On VISUAL IMAGES MISSING Muscular Impression Needed for Some Pupils to Lrwrn; Work Started at Summer School A movement started here at the Vniversity of Oregon summer school session to remedy back wardness In learning by children who are not of the visual mentat- Ity type haa proved so successful that the Eugene Klwants cluh hits decided to make It possible to con tinue the work after the summei session ends nevt neek, It waa an nounced yesterday. Dr. Grace Kernald, clinical pay cholcgist of the University of Cal Ifornla at I.os Angeles, Is now in charge of the remedial Instruction but her work here will end with the close or the summer session The Kiwanls club has studied her work and has decided to raise funds by which local teachers may continue It for the rest of th sum mer. Dr. Fernald has charge of I group of schools In I.os Angeles where non.visual children are In structed. These children cannot learn through visual Impressions as most children do and must be given instruction through muscular instead of visual Impressions. Example is Cited An example of the different methods of learning was cited by local school men. In learning to snell. children with visual mentall Ues see a word written on the blackboard and thereafter are able to Identify it through visual image. Seeing the word makes no impression In the minds of non visual children and in order to learn the' word they must trace it or copy it. thereby gaining a muscular Impression. A certain percentage of non-visual children is found In alt schools and about a dozen Eugene children are receiving Instruction on the university campus this summer. The work w-as explained to the Kiwanls club and members at once took an Interest in it. Dr. C. L. Huffaker. member of the univer sity school of education 'faculty and the local Kiwanls club, has been designated to have charge of the club's activities along; this line. H. R.
