Educational Needs Discuss’ed By Dr. MacKinnon In Talk
Educational needs in both the cultural and scientific fields was the theme of an address deliver- ed by Dr. Frank MacKinnon in Central Christian Church Hall Thursday evening.
Culture must be stimulated. the speaker stated. “We must have writers, artists, musicians,” he said, adding that the Canada Council had been set up to de- velop talents outside scientific fields.
Dr. MacKinnon pointed out that many of our radio and television
our literature originated in the United States. This he contended
was hindering the development of E
a distinct Canadian culture, add- ing that Canadians were "in dan-
tirely.” , A NATIONAL EMERGENCY
,The speaker described the present shortage of mathematic- ians in Canada as “a national emergency” since most of our new developments had a mathe- matical basis.
An “interested and informed public” was thebasis or demo- cracy, he declared. A
"‘We must develop_a capacity to think,” he said. “The indivi- dual must be able to think and:
live also, enjoy himself, and
“Education is more than a label. . . . We must get away from fact-stuffing, because it is how we use our capacities that determines our success.”
Dr. MacKinnon stressed the need for greater attention to “per- sonal education,” pointing out the necessity for more and better- paid teachers. He decried "as- sembly line education,” which he said, would not give us a think- ing people. or a democracy. MORAL TEACHING NEEDED
He underlined the necessity for moral teaching, but asserted that “prefabricated teaching and pro- paganda" should be avoided.
‘-‘Pupils should regardl education as a training, not as passing tests,” he said.” School is only one of the ?sources of an educa- tion; chores and summer employ- ment also add to.one’s educa- tion.” . ~
The P. W. C. principal warned his hearers that the pupil was the most important factor in educa- tion, adding that “they are more capable of more than we think," since in many countries children ‘begin school a year or even two years earlier than is the practice in Canada. ,_
The thanks and appreciation of the group was expressed to Dr. MacKinnon by Dr. Ross Stewart.
Light refreshments were served
