A successful homemaking education program depends not
only on demonstrations of good standards and planned pro-
cedures of work for both pupil and teacher, but also a con-
tinuous self-evaluation of the pupil's work. Evaluation is the
process of making judgments and coming to decisions. This
should be done with the pupil rather than to him, and in terms
of his ability. It should be continuous, with the major purpose
being to improve learning.

SUGGESTIONS TO TEACHERS AND ADMINISTRATORS
 This guide offers suggested direction for the reorganization
of the homemaking education curriculum. A program compre-

particularly Homemaking Education I and Homemaking Edu-
cation II. Homemaking Education I continues to be the year
required of girls, a State Board regulation since 1924, for grad-
uation from high school. In the program of studies for high
schools in Florida, it is recommended that the required year
of homemaking education be placed early in the high school
program, preferably in the ninth or tenth grades. The first
year course is elective for boys. In this guide it also becomes
a prerequisite to all succeeding years of Homemaking Education
except Homemaking Education IV.

 Homemaking Education II is designed for those interested
in greater understanding and increased abilities in homemaking.
It is required as the second year in a vocational program in
which two years is a minimum.

 The offerings as indicated in the third year will meet the
needs of older girls in school. It is an elective, but the prob-
lems and experiences are progressively more advanced. The
problems and experiences should also be suggestive for pro-
grams of out-of-school groups of older youth and adults.

 The suggested offerings for Homemaking Education IV are
 organized so that problems and experiences are those which
 begin where the pupils are and so that pupils may progress to
 the greatest extent possible according to the abilities in the
 time available. It is so designed that both boys and girls, re-
