Huron teachers study
discipline problems
Monday, October ' 29
was a Professional
Development Day for all
Huron County teachers.
Holmesville School
hosted a workshop
sponsored jointly by the
Ontario Public School
Men Teachers
Federation and the
Federation of Women
Teachers Association of
Ontario.
Teachers from
Brookside, Colborne,
Ilolmesville, Queen
Elizabeth, Robertson and
Victoria elementary
schools attended, as well
as some secondary
teachers from GDCI.
Topic of the day was,
"Discipline Strategies
That Work", which was
presented by Dr. Ed Pino
of the Educational
Consultant Association
Services from Denver,
Colorado.
Dr. Pino is a former
teacher, principal and .
director of education. He
was, for a time, in charge
of United States

Canada and the U.S. His
name appears in "Who's

Dr. Pino maintained
that uniqueness should be
one of the goals of
education and warned
educators against
producing "assembly -
line" graduates.
He challenged teachers
to keep children busy in
order to prevent
boredom, which, he
argued, is the cause of 90
percent of all discipline
problems.
He offered ,many new
and interesting
suggestions on ac-
complishing this.
Dr. Pino's dynamic
delivery combined with
the timely topic, held the _
attention of the audience
throughout the day, and
provided stimulation to
try his methods.
