Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of Education It is possible that in some grades of schoolwork a purely mechanical teaching is best; that he is the best teacher who is most of an artisan, - with whom teaching is most of a handicraft. But I do not be lieve this. The rules that are best for working on wood and stone are not the best when applied to mind and character. Undoubtedly, there is a me chamical element in the teaching art; but this is sub ordinate to that other element that wholly escapes mechanical measurements, because it has to do with the manifestations of free Spirit. In other words, I am persuaded that a teacher is poor to the degree in which he is an artisan, and good to the degree in which he is an artist; and that nothing is so much needed by teachers of every class as an infusion of that freedom and versatility that are possible only through an extension of the mental vision by means of a more liberal culture.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Brief History of Education: A History of the Practice and Progress and Organization of Education The present volume is an abridgment and condensation of my History of Education, issued in 1920, and has been prepared to meet the needs of normal schools and colleges which desire to teach the general history of education, but which do not have the time or the inclination to go into the subject in such detail as IS glven in the larger volume above referred to. The general plan of the two books is the same. Like the larger History of Education, the present volume is a history of the practice and progress and organization of educa tion itself, rather than a history of educational theory, and pre sents the history of education as a phase of the history of the rise and development and spread of our Western civilization. As in the larger volume, ' I have 'tried here to present such a picture of the rise, struggle for existence, growth, and recent great expan sion of the idea of the improvability of the race and the elevation and emancipation of the individual through education as would be most illuminating and useful to students of the subject. To this end I have traced the great forward steps in the emancipation of the intellect of man, and the efforts to perpetuate the progress made through the organization of educational institutions to pass on to others what had been attained.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of Education For some time experiments have been made in the Normal School with the object of discovering a course of Educational History suited to the needs of students attending a session of eighteen weeks, and providing, beside, such material as may be readily adapted to the still shorter Third Class session of eleven weeks. The course discovered makes no pretense at originality of thought. The only merit it has lies in the fact that it has grown out of the needs of the class; has been well tested by several hundred students; and has undergone such revision as was deemed profitable. This book attempts to place in small compass the long and involved story of the evolution of the various philosophies of education which have been substantial enough to endure the test of time. Few teachers have the time or the mental training necessary to cover the vast field thoroughly, yet all should wish to know something of the more important contentions which have engaged the thoughts of men and women in connection with educational reform during the ages.

This book was released on 2017-11-13 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines of the History of Education This little volume of studies has been prepared as a guide to the study of the History of Education for students in col leges and normal schools, with the hope that from out of the maze of facts and events which surround and obscure the sub ject, they may by its aid gain a clearer understanding of the development of educational thought and practices. Most books that deal with this broadest of historical subjects do not marshal the facts contributing to progress in education so that a definite tendency or purpose or result can be discerned. As a matter of value and profit, it is not so important to the student to know the facts as it is to know the bearing of the facts upon the movement, to understand their dependence upon what has gone before as well as upon the actual conditions surrounding them and to see their influence upon the develop ment of the movement. We all know that any type of edu cational practice is but the outward expression of the thoughts and ideals and purposes which guide one generation in the rearing of the next, while these thoughts, ideals, and purposes are, in their turn, born of the national life and civilization in which they have matured. Now, it is always a di cult thing for the student to pick out the essential and contributing facts and to discover their meaning, and usually, working by himself, he either fails to get very much true significance from them or else he gets it at very great expense of thought and efi'ort.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of Education: Being a Reprint of the Article Education, From the 9th Edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica; Edited, With an Introduction, Bibliography, Notes, and References In this country, the purpose of normal instruction seems to be to prepare young men and women in the shortest and most direct way for doing school-room work. The equipment needed for this work is a knowledge of subjects and an empirical knowledge of methods; and so the normal schools furnish sound academic training, and pupils are taught methods of instruo tion by actual practice in experimental schools. In all this, the mechanical, or empirical. Element seems to be held upper most in thought. Pupils must be trained for practical ends; they must, so to speak, be converted into instruments for doing prescribed work by prescribed methods.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Education in Virginia IN the preparation of this volume, I have been actuated by a desire to make the history of Education in Virginia accessible to teachers and students, and to place it within the reach of all who have any wish to become acquainted with the story of the educational progress of the State. It need not be said that it is impossible to describe within the limits of this volume the whole history of education in Virginia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Education To be strictly accurate, the title of this book should have been "A Brief History of Education, as Conscious Evolution." To record, even summarily, the facts and events in the long history of education, within the narrow limits of a text-book, would have been both impossible and undesirable. My endeavor has been to present education as the last and highest form of evolution - that great process which includes both Nature and Culture. I have tried to show what it is that evolves, why it evolves, and why evolution, finally attaining to consciousness, becomes education. Seeing that the immanent purpose of evolution is the realization of free individuals, that is, moral personalities, I have endeavored to mark the steps by which this has been gradually attained, and to indicate those that have yet to be taken. By placing education in relation to the whole process of evolution, as its highest form, I have hoped to impart to it a dignity which it could hardly otherwise receive or claim. From many points of view, the educator's profession seems mean and profitless enough, compared with those that make more noise in the world; but when it is recognized to be the highest phase of the world-process, and the teacher to be the chief agent in that process, both it and he assume a very different aspect.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A School History of the United States The object aimed at in the preparation of this book was to produce a systematic, brief, clear, and authentic history of the United States for the use of schools. The plan is simple. N o arbitrary division into historical periods and eras is employed, but each chapter embraces associated events and forms a natural link in an unbroken chain. A strictly chronological order of arrangement is followed, whereby occurrences are shown in their true relation to one another, and to their causes. The most important dates are made prominent in the text by a peculiar type. A condensed record of general progress is placed at the end of almost every chapter, designed to interest the pupil in the civil and domestic character of the country, and in employments, institutions, and ideas not directly connected with wars, politics, or national legislation.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of Elementary Education in England Education is in the air. It was not always so. By the guidance of that Unseen Hand which, after all, shapes the affairs of men "rough-hew them as we will," the time has arrived when it is not the form of government, or the rights of succession, but the methods of education which must agitate the minds of Englishmen, until some solution, possessing the elements of permanency, has been devised. That this solution may be the more easily arrived at it becomes of first-rate importance for those by whose suffrages the question of elementary education is to be ultimately decided to have a clear conception, not merely of the immediate point at issue in an approaching election, but also of the previous history of the movement which has culminated in the Act of 1902.
