Abstract
The environment of the modern classroom is moving rapidly from a relatively new culture of the classroom to a curriculum which involves cooperative relationships with home and community. It is difficult to determine, operate and maintain a curriculum in a relatively stable era, but the problems are multiplied in a time when changes are so rapid that even the teachers are confused. It is the job of the school, along with other educative agencies, to prepare the children of today to adjust themselves to the changing conditions.
Teachers and curriculum makers have a definite responsibility for attacking problems, both economic and social, of vital personal concern in such a manner that pupils with differing maturities and backgrounds can gam insight into and effect solutions to continuous problems concerning family and community life.
Children should know about the powerful organizations of modes of travel; the air; land and sea. They should know more about the motion picture industry, the radio and automotive industry, and the vocational opportunity which these and many other organizations afford.
