Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study in School Supervision With Special Reference to Rural School Conditions in Texas The principle of the division of labor in human society has a deep significance; it is a law of nature and finds its parallel in organic structure. For example, manv vertebrate animals use all their limbs for progression over the surface of the earth; some have their forefeet modified for digging in the ground or for climbing in trees. Birds have them modified for ight, and thereby sweep the skies. Fish use them for propulsion through the depths of the sea. And Man, standing erect, has his hands freed for labor immortal.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rural School Supervision Sir: In the early history of this country, and of each of the States, when the population was sparse and communities widely separated, each school district and each school had an independent existence, with little or no relation to any other school or district or any larger unit. As population became more dense, as communities coalesced, as appropriations and expenditures for schools became larger, and as the larger units of county and State began to feel an interest in and responsibility for the education of the children of all their separate communities, the need for State and county officers for business administration was felt. Later still, the demand for efficiency in the schools and for the best possible use of money expended for schools and of the time of the children in school gave rise to a demand for expert supervision by men and women competent to give to all teachers, and especially to young and inexperienced teachers, help in those phases of their work in which they need it most. As a result, State, county, district, and township superintendents are now chosen with reference to their knowledge of teaching more than formerly; and in many States they are given the assistance of special supervisors. So valuable have been the results of the work of these expert supervisors in those places where it has been tried under favorable conditions that there is now a general desire for information on the subject. I therefore recommend for publication as a bulletin of the Bureau of Education the accompanying manuscript transmitted herewith on Rural School Supervision, prepared at my request by Katherine M. Cook and A. C. Monahan of the Rural Education Division of this bureau. Respectfully submitted. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Supervision of Instruction The following discussion and analysis of the elements of the supervisory process, and statement of the technique and professional standards for the supervision of instruction, will be read with interest by those who are concerned with the work of school supervision. The author of the volume is a school supervisor of experience, who has been unusually successful in training young people for the teaching service. Training novices for success in teaching is even more difficult work than that of a school principal or superintendent in initiating new or poorly experienced teachers into the work of a city-school system. Out of his experience he has worked out the following analytical discussion of the principles underlying classroom supervision, and the devices and technique which should, and which should not be employed. The fundamental purpose of all school supervision is to increase the efficiency of the classroom teacher. School supervision is worthy of the name only when it results in such an increase. Supervisors who conceive their function to be that of an inspector, and who go about checking up work accomplished and locating those who do not follow directions, are worth little.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Value of School Supervision: Demonstrated With the Zone Plan in Rural Schools Among all of the forms and grades of schools under public administration, there are none as much in need of supervisory guidance and help as the district schools in the open country. Such schools represent the most difficult supervisory problems found in our school sys tem. Country schools are distant from each other and from county seats. Country roads are aften poor. To visit country schools is enormously expensive in time, money, and energy. It is difficult to bring teachers together frequently for group conferences. To develop any plan by which supervision of country schools may be made more efficient and at an expenditure of time and money which does not make it prohibitive is therefore to make a very genuine contribution to the progress Of country school education.

He must quicken pupils as well as teachers, and to do this he must be a clean, attractive, and forceful character, who appeals to the buoyancy and ambition of youth. He must be a worker. He must be an intelligent friend of true sport. He must be a scholar; he must know the literature of the schools; he must be specially proficient in educational history, and pedagogical theory and method; and he must keep up with progress in the organization and work of schools in other districts, in other states, and in other countries. He must have a share in educational meetings in the State and nation to the end that he may possibly contribute to their potential strength, and certainly to the end that he may get from them the aids which will help him to do the most for his own schools. Withal, he must be a sane and balanced character, who is familiar with affairs, who is neither an eccentric nor a bombast, who can move among the people on at least equal terms, to whom teachers may be naturally disposed to look for guidance, and to whose judgment and influence parents may be glad to submit the future of their children. One can not be all this, nor any appreciable part of it, unless he is a balanced character and is a student of it; nor unless he has had experience at it. He must have judgment and discrimination. He must be able to resist, as well as to do. He can not fill this place and divide his time and thought with any other business. He can have no other interest which will take his time, or his thought, or which will warp his judgment, for the place demands all the thought, and all the force, of an all-around man or woman who has become an expert in the organization and administration of schools. What such an one can do for the schools can not be fully described; indeed, it can hardly be appreciated by one not familiar with the complex educational activities of the country. But that is what we mean by school supervision. No such supervision in the farming districts Such supervision has developed very rapidly in the cities of the State in the last forty or fifty years. It is this that has made for the quite uniform excellence of the city schools. It is this, at least, that has made the schools notably good in the cities where the best superintendents have been long continued.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This bulletin contains abstracts of addresses delivered at a two-day conference of State and county rural-school supervisors in the South-eastern States, called by the United States Commissioner of Education at Raleigh, N.C. December 6 and 7, 1926. Abstracts were prepared from manuscripts submitted by the authors. The conference was attended by more than 100 rural educational workers, most of whom are engaged in State and county supervision. States represented were Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Florida, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Texas, Tennessee, and Virginia. The United States Bureau of Education was represented by two members of the staff of the division of rural education. The program presented at the conference was arranged to consider the four large problems indicated by the Roman numerals in the table of contents; under each of these at least one major paper or address was presented, followed by free discussion from the floor. The nature and content of the program bear witness to the fact that supervisors have recently made considerable progress in bridging the distance between modern educational theory and practice under actual schoolroom conditions. This progress, as recorded in the present bulletin, has been mainly in three directions: (1) Adapting supervision to group differences among teachers and to conditions in larger rural schools whose principals are beginning to share supervisory responsibilities; (2) identifying rural supervision actively with modern research movements; and (3) adjusting the curriculum in order to better fit the instruction offered in rural schools to the life and needs of rural children. Part 1, Problems concerned with efficiency of rural school supervision, included: (1) Adaptation of supervision to group differences among teachers (Isobel Davidson); (2) Adaptation of supervision to needs of superior experienced teachers (Mildred English); (3) Interdependence of principal and supervisor (Pauline O'Rourke); and (4) Fundamental issues involved in adjustment of work of supervisors and principals (J. E. Potts). Part 2, Value of research in the solution of supervisory problems, addressed: (1) Supervisors and teachers as cooperators in research studies (M. R. Trabue); (2) Cooperative research work in a county school system (Nettie E. Brogdon); (3) Supervisory activities and teacher reactions (Nancy O. Devers); and (4) Means used by rural teachers and supervisors to profit by the results of research, and to participate in research studies (Maycie K. Southall). Part 3, The relation of rural curriculum adaptation to supervision, covered: (1) Problems involved in curriculum adaptations (Fannie W. Dunn); (2) Differentiation in curricula to meet the life and needs of rural children (Helen Hay Heyl); (3) Adjustment of the curriculum to the hundred-day pupil (Hazel L. Fisher); (4) Adjustment of curriculum to atypical pupils (Margaret Hayes); and (5) Adjustment of curriculum to the short-term rural school (Matilda O. Michaels). Part 4, Equitable distribution of the supervisor's time, included a single presentation: Questionnaire study of allotment of time of State and county supervisors in Southeastern States (Annie Reynolds). Individual abstracts contain footnotes and tables. [Prepared in the Division of Rural Education. Best copy available has been provided.].

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from School Supervision Before 1837 Connecticut surpassed the other States in the education of its people. But the mighty engine of supervision wielded by a Horace Mann immediately turned the scale in favor of Massachusetts. Municipal taxation proved a far more powerful instrument than a school fund, although the latter had done good service in its day.* For the support of schools in sparsely settled rural districts, the State School fund and the quota assigned them from the State school-tax are still the most impor tant item. For cities and wealthy communities the local municipal tax is the chief and indeed a sufficient resource, except in those States that have limited the rate of taxation by constitutional provision.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Texas Public Schools: Standards and Activities of the Division of Supervision In accordance with the proAdsions of this Act the public schools of the State shall, upon satisfactory evidence, be ranked by the State Department of Education as high schools of the first class, high schools of the second class, and high schools of the third class. Acts Thirtyfourth Legislature, Ch. 36, Sec. 5.Inasmuch as the law prescribes that public high schools shall be classified by the State Department of Education, all public schools of the State attempting to do high school work are required to make a report to the State Superintendent of Public Instruction as to course of study, teachers employed, number of years work, length of annual session, finance and equipment; and furnish specimens of written work of pupils, as a basis for classification. No school will be classified as a high school of the first class or of the second class until inspected and approved by a representative of the State Department of Education. By classification is meant: establishing educational standards; encouraging schools to attain these standards; certifying those that have attained them; and accrediting their work, for the purpose of grading, correlating, unifying these schools into an effective system. High schools are classified as high schools of the first class, or four-year high schools; high schools of the second class, or three-year high schools; and high schools of the third class, or two-year high schools, according to number of units of work effectively taught. High schools which have been classified by the State Department of Education become eligible to apply for State aid in establishing vocational instruction; and are accredited with units of affiliation, in keeping with their classification, to higher institutions. While the Department is classifying and correlating the secondary schools of the State so that pupils can pass readily from high school to high school, or from high school to college, it is not unmindful of the fact that the majority of pupils do not graduate into college, but into practical life, and is, therefore, urging and aiding high schools to establish, equip and maintain departments of vocational instruction so that pupils may more readily and more quickly adjust themselves to industrial life. But as a condition for receiving State aid for vocational instruction, the Department requires standardization and classification.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Rural Supervision: Miscellaneous Pamphlets It is no longer true that the majority of the parents are interested in the public schools, and eager and ambitious for their advancement. Statistics show clearly that children are not regular in their voluntary attendance, and are not absorbed in their student work. And the testimony of all persons who are familiar with the facts is practically unanimous upon the point that we have many teachers who are conspicuously unfit, intellectually, scholastically and professionally for the service they attempt to perform. Since all these things are true, and are known to be true by those who have given this matter careful attention, it is for the interest of everybody that the truth be told. The schools of Maine are of such quality that the people can afford to know all the facts concerning them. The old red schoolhouse of the Pine Tree State has furnished opportunities for the training of so large a number of men and women who have occupied distinguished positions in this and other states as to amply vindicate its influence, power and usefulness. The number of persons who are natives of this State and who have served with distinction as cabinet officers, members of congress, governors of other states, etc., is so large that no one should be sensitive about any criticisms which may be made upon our public schools. When we add to this notable list the multitude who have gone forth from their Maine homes to make for themselves honorable places in the professional, industrial, scientific and literary world, we are certainly justified in feeling proud of the institution which has prepared these people for their work and contributed so largely to their success. It is known to but few how large a concourse of persons have gone from this State and stand to-day in the front ranks of the progressive men and women of the different communities in which they have found their fields of labor. The large majority of these people received the best, and in many instances the most of their training in the common schools. The old academy, seminary and the colleges of Maine have done a work unparalleled in fitting those who came under their instruction for positions of distinguished usefulness. They have done this work so well that it is natural for many to regret that, with only a few conspicuous exceptions, the academy and seminary have passed out of existence; but they rejoice that the colleges remain, developed by years and strengthened by larger endowments and better equipments. People who are conscious of their weakness are peculiarly sensitive to an exposure of their frailties. People who are conscious of their strength welcome any revelation which helps them to a better knowledge of themselves and better means of development. Believing that the people of Maine are capable of establishing, maintaining and intelligently using the best schools of the age, an effort has been made to place before them, verbally and graphically the condition of the schools of the State. These studies have not been undertaken for the purpose of proving any theories, gratifying any personal ambitions, or placing the State before the country in an unenviable light.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Social Factors Affecting Special Supervision in the Public Schools of the United States The increase in the number of subjects for instruction in the public school curriculum within recent years has been marked. Many of these subj ects have been introduced into the schools by means of special teachers or supervisors. The administra tive adjustment to this situation has been accompanied by no little difficulty. Special teachers and supervisors have multiplied until it is no uncommon thing to find a single city employing such specialists in a half dozen subjects, including music, draw ing, physical education, manual training, domestic science and penmanship.
