Lapidary in the school shop
Abstract
Scope of Study: The purpose of this report is to explore the subject areas of lapidary applicable to integration into the school shop. A brief history of lapidary is presented to show its origin and importance to man. Findings and Conclusions: A study in lapidary reveals that there is a wealth of interesting subject material and many valuable learning experiences to be gained from a school course in this subject. The author believes that the subject material contained in this report will aid teachers wishing to formulate a program of this type in their shop. The subject of this report was chosen after the author observed the interest in gem, mineral and gem cutting clubs in southern California.
