Summary: Two events in OISE coincided in 1975. Canada's first educational research, development, and graduate teaching institute celebrated its tenth anniversary, and its founding director retired. Published in honor of Dr. Robert William Brierley Jackson, who has made an outstanding contribution to his field, this Festschrift grows out of a tradition to which the academic side of the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education owes its allegiance. In the foreword to this volume, Clifford Pitt, the incoming director and a long-time colleague of R. W. B. Jackson, describes the extent of that contribution as it applies generally to the field of knowledge and more particularly to Dr. Jackson's involvement in the changing appearance and structure of Ontario education over more than twenty years.
