The effect of educational aims and objectives on the provision and use of school library resource facilities: with particular reference to 11–16 age range mixed comprehensive schools in the West Midlands
1982
Changes in education leading to an emphasis on equality of opportunity
and pupil-centred learning have resulted in more importance being
attached to the provision of library resource facilities in schools.
As a consequence of this and increased interest in quantitative
standards, the need for research into the use of existing provision
and its relationship to the curriculum arose. A preliminary survey
was conducted in the East Midlands, followed by detailed case study
of six secondary comprehensive schools in the West Midlands, using
questionnaire and interview techniques.
The hypotheses tested were:
(i) that the educational aims and objectives influence the use
that is made of the library resource provision, particularly
by pupils;
(ii) that educational aims and objectives determine the amount
and type of library resource provision. [Continues.]
