Be wants t0 know whit's happening around us,; While in Europe Mr. ,Ackert noticed that the apprenticeship system' is used more than it is. here. Because the Jol* that a young person may get into are. plentiful,. ntapy drop out of school, get lobs and ;attend night courses to further their . ,education. Also, the .,kids there know what they want to4d0 at early age. Mr. Aokert says that todayk. students have more technical knowledge and social under- standing. at an, earlier age than in times past. The decisions .. and.probies facing us „ though similar in some respects, are More complex and difficult. Where he had only limited ed- ucatiot►al facilities and oppe tunities there are many ways for a young person to 'go today. Mr. Ackert agrees fully with the new. trends in education and with. the "Ball -Dennis -Re- port.' ' He, feels education must become more Useful to a world that is .constantly changing. " Students must be able to adapt -to thosedrastic changes. -Man should have a concern for his fellow man and should be willing to put his concern into action. he 'future well-. being .of our 4auntcy and the world depends upon the, ability. and willingness of people to change today, Mr..
