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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elementary Education: Some Account of Its Rise and Progress in England At the request of some friends I have written the following account of the manner in which Popular Education in England has reached its present position. I have undertaken this task for the information of those who are interested in the subject, but who know little about it, and not for those who are familiar with the question, and who would naturally expect that it should be treated much more in detail. Events that occurred only a few years ago are apt to be forgotten in the whirl and excitement that seem now to be our normal state of existence; and the very names of the men who have done the most towards forming the somewhat complicated system of popular education now existing have almost passed into a state of oblivion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teaching of History in Elementary Schools To-day the attention of everyone is fixed on the history that is being made from hour to hour. Our grasp of the ideals which we have formed in the past is being put to the test, and the course of the future is being determined. Patriotism is not a matter of discussion, but of action. The connection between the lessons which the citizens of Great Britain have learned from their knowledge of her history and the significance which they attach to the present momentous struggle is so close that we hope to be pardoned for publishing a book on the teaching of history even at such a time. It is true that, in the midst of such events, it is hard to view the past in its proper perspective and not to regard the whole course of history from the standpoint of the present issues. The book, however, was in the main written before the war, when it was possible to look back on the past and forward into the future with less emotion and more coldblooded judgment. What emboldens us to publish it now is that, reading our manuscript again in these days when interpretations of history are being tested in the fire, we see nothing to withdraw and little to alter. The nation has entered this war in no jingo spirit. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

A Hinsdale, With a Brief Sketch of the History of Elementary Education in America One more paragraph and we are done with prefatory remarks. It does not seem best to confine myself to a mere answer to Mr. Hinsdale. The evi dence of a few competent witnesses and a thorough refutation of his West Point argument would be sufficient to meet every material point in his address. But I shall avail myself of the opportunity to direct public attention to such facts in the history of the common schools as may be of service in their present and future management. The question. Of overcrowding the course of study being raised, it will be quite appropriate to show that that overcrowding comes from the undue expansion of those branches which are honored with the name of common school studies, not from the introduction of what are styled the higher branches of education. Generalt sherman's and Professor church's views on this subject, as quoted by President hinsdale, are superficial in the extreme.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from State Intervention in English Education: A Short History From the Earliest Times Down to 1833 The collection of materials for a history of State-aided Education in England from the date of the first Government Grant in 1833 to the passing of the Elementary Education Act, 1870, showed that such a history would be, to a great extent, meaningless unless there were available for constant reference a work dealing with the earlier relationship of the State and Education in England. Strangely enough there appeared to be no satisfactory book of reference on this important subject, and it seemed, therefore, desirable to produce the simple record of historical facts contained in this volume. It is certainly a matter for surprise that no historian has considered the history of Education in England a subject of sufficient importance to justify the prolonged research that such an undertaking, if adequately carried out, would involve. Had such a history been produced seventy years ago, England would have been spared some, at least, of her present educational troubles.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Elementary Education in England and Wales: From 1800 to the Present Day The aim of this book is primarily to present a concise and accurate account of the evolution of the system of elementary schooling in England and Wales as we know it to-day. It covers on broad lines the history of Elementary Education in this country since 1800. and meets the requirements of, for instance, the Syllabus of the Board of Education for teachers in training. The need for such a book is widely admitted. The development of our educational system during the last fifty years, and particularly during the last decade, has been'wide and rapid. The result is that all who are closely concerned with education, and especially teachers, are finding a knowledge'of the history of elementary education in England and Wales in the nineteenth century to be almost essential to their work. Witness the inclusion of the subject in the syllabus for Training Colleges and for the Higher Froebel Certificate, and in the education course of almost every University in the country. The time therefore seems ripe for taking stock of what has been achieved, and seeing in what directions further progress is tending.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evolution of the Elementary Schools of Great Britain It gives me pleasure to commend this book of the International Education Series as a competent study of one of the most important national educational systems in the world written from the standpoint of an American director of schools for the training of teachers. On account of the similarity of language and an identity of national traditions the English people seem to be much closer to the people of this country in educational ideals and practises than they really are. Upon a superficial view with it seems to an American that there is not much difference between an hereditary king or queen and the President of the United States, and that the Parliament is very similar to our Congress. But the more one becomes acquainted with those governments the deeper seems the difference. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manchester and the Movement for National Elementary Education, 1800-1870 Francis adams (of Birmingham). History of the Elementary School Contest in England. WE are all familiar with the commonplace that education is a vital concern of everybody and sometimes we are tempted to draw the conclusion that it is one of those subjects which ought to be withdrawn from the arena of party politics and settled by common consent of all well-disposed citizens. But from the very fact that education cannot be confined to any one department of life, but touches in turn, in England at all events, religion, morals, politics, social ideals, trade and health, as well as knowledge, any educational proposal must always be accompanied by keen conflict of opinion in fact principles are often more deeply involved in educational movements than in almost anything else, and one has only to trace the history of any one of the numerous sources of our educational system to realise that in the past it has always been so. In national affairs, however, the currents of opinion and the enormous toil oi propagating ideas are not easy to follow. Parliament seldom acts until the need for action has been convincingly shown by years of devoted effort by hundreds and thousands of individuals who can never figure in the final drama. To understand the long failure of Parliament to establish uni versal education in England is to understand a very large portion of the life of England in the nineteenth century.

This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English National Education a Sketch of the Rise of Public Elementary Schools in England Not wealth but the power to produce wealth is the true measure of the commercial prosperity of a country. Not men but minds are the first requisites for superiority in production. Not handcraft but braincraft is the prime source of productive excellence. Not a worker but an intelligent worker is the mainstay of the industrial world. Not a machine but the creative and guiding intelligence is the greatest economizer. Mind is the great parent machine, and the great master machine. The mechanical is never the highest expression of the rational. Therefore, the best capital of a nation is the brain-power of its people. What did Prussia do when humbled to the dust by France? Reformed her schools. What did France do when crushed by Germany? Reformed her schools. The competition of nations is a battle of minds. Not the mere fighter, but the thinker is victor to-day. It would appear that the French were not less heroic, but worse organized, in their last great war. Germany is our rival in trade because she is our superior in schools. Just as Waterloo was said to have been won in the playing-fields (and class-rooms - epigrams are always incomplete) of Eton, so the world's commerce is being won and lost in our schools. If this be so, our country can have, in practical affairs, no higher interest, no supremer duty, and no more valuable investment than is to be found in securing an unequalled system of national education. It behoves every intelligent citizen, therefore, to know what is involved in this matter, what has been done, and what is still required. We ought to concern ourselves very seriously about what is being done to raise to its highest powers the collective reason of the nation, by developing the minds of the individuals; and whether we are most effectively cultivating, improving, and expanding the rational resources - the chief beginning and chief end of national greatness - of the kingdom.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elementary Education in England: With Special Reference to London, Liverpool, and Manchester There is probably no parallel in the history of education to the remarkable activity and progress which have characterized English education in all its branches since the opening of the present century. It would seem as if all the influences which retarded its development in the last century, the social, political, and religious interests, had entirely disappeared. But it would be a mistake to imagine that some thing in the nature of a revolution has taken place, or that a national scheme suddenly sprang into being by the will of some legislative body. Such a rapid change would be alien to the English political theory, which prefers progress to be slow and calculated, and intro duces compulsory legislation when the conditions are ripe for it. The theory of State control in education has, however, gradually been accepted, and the importance Of a national system of education is generally recognized, but it is not intended to surrender to the State that local and private freedom which has always been enjoyed in this matter. The State, under the new system, aims to furnish those conditions which make possible the exercise of local freedom in the interest of a well-coordinated and progressive system of education. Hence the central Government, through its education department, merely acts in an advisory and supervisory capacity, and encourages local effort by financial assistance, if certain minimum standards are observed. The control which the State exercises is accordingly financial, but otherwise no pressure is brought to bear on the local authorities, who are at liberty, if they can afford it, to use their inde pendemos in their own way, conduct any experiments they please, and remain free from central control, provided that they bear the expenses themselves. Thus the principle of devolution is applied to the administration of education, and, though the framework of a national system is already in existence, there is no approximation to the centralized and bureaucratic systems of France or Germany. The ultimate responsibility for education accordingly rests with the local authority. This principle of freedom is a characteristic feature of all branches of English education, and is carried through to the individual school. While this doctrine of freedom is to a great extent the secret of the strength of the English system, it is at the same time the cause of many of its weaknesses.
