DESCRIPTION
The prevailing conditions in modern societies make organized guidance necessary in educational institutions. There are some basic assumptions upon which the superstructure of guidance rests. They are as following: 1. The differences between individuals in native capacity, ability and interests are significant. 2. Native abilities are not usually specialized. 3. Many important crises can not be successfully met by young people without assistance. 4. The school is in a strategic position to give the assistance needed. 5. Guidance is not prescriptive but aims at progressive ability for self guidance. The above are the assumptions upon which the principles and methodologies of guidance are based. This book discuses all these principles in detail.
