This book was released on 2018-02-09 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of Rural Schools in Karnes County During the school year of 1921-22 the Bureau. Of Ex tension of the University conducted rural school surveys in Wichita, Karnes, and Williamson counties. During the school year of 1922-23 it is the purpose of the Bureau of Extension to conduct similar research investigations in other Texas counties. In this series of surveys will be found a county with millions of oil wealth in it; a county from the timber lands of East Texas; one from the Blackland Belt with its educational and sociological com plications arising from high-priced land, the one crop sys tem, farm tenants and absentee landlords; one from the Western Cross Timbers where loss of rural population has brought about a large amount of social stagnation one from middle west Texas with its thrifty, homogeneous. Home owning English-speaking population; one from the high plains where there is much room fer expansion and where there is a wholesome breadth of vision on the part of most of the people; and one from South-west Texas with its cos mopolitan population of Mexicans and other non-english speaking whites. Thus the rural educational conditions obtaining throughout the state will be covered in a fairly representative way. The object of these studies it twofold: (1) To enable counties in which they are conducted to see where they stand educationally, and to assist them in the work of educa tional self-improvement; (2) To obtain a fund of definite, reliable, comprehensive information on the rural-life situa tion in Texas to be placed at the disposal of students and teachers of education. It is hoped that these studies may make some contribution to the content of the courses in rural education now being offered in the normal colleges and the other colleges of Texas.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rural School, 1922: Survey, of New York State Educational Achievement The report of this section of the survey is distinctive for the following reasons: It furnishes an excellent illustration of the value of standardized tests in the study of schools. The facts that have been secured with reference to the reading situation in the rural schools of the State should be invaluable to administrative and supervisory officers and they should also arouse teachers and patrons to the need of securing more adequate results from the work of the schools in this subject. Reading is of basic importance. Not only does it condition progress in other school subjects, but deficiency in it may be a barrier to the intelligent discharge of the duties of citizenship. The elementary school has no more important subject to offer the children and the results should be better than are now being obtained. The use of the intelligence and standardized tests with such large numbers of pupils through so many grades, and in all sections of the State, should furnish valuable data for those who are interested in the relative effectiveness of rural and urban schools. The survey of the rural schools of New York State and the printing of this report were made possible through a grant from the Commonwealth Fund.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rural School in the United States Another illustration of our uniform quantitative attitude is to be found in the development of our common school course of study from the three R's. That it has been a case of quan titative rather than qualitative enrichment goes without say ing This line of enrichment has run through the interest ing fields of history, geography, algebra, physiology with all of its hygiene and temperance addenda, drawing, object lessons, vocal music, nature study, literature, language work and ele mentary science. Now the loudest cry is rising from every educational assembly for deliverance from the tyranny of this whole quantitative procedure. We have not abandoned our idea] of enrichment, but we can procure real enrichment only through the elimination of all that is unnecessary or antiquated in our present course of study.

Download or read book The Rural School Its Methods and Management Classic Reprint written by Horace M. Culter and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rural School, Its Methods and Management The present treatise on school methods and management is intended for teachers in the elementary country schools and for those in normal and high schools who expect to go into the rural schools to teach. The writer has studiously avoided all suggestions especially applicable to the management of city schools, and has purposely confined himself to such plans and methods as will be suited to the country school. While consolidation is an important movement, and many more weak districts should be united, yet in many parts of the United States the time is far distant when the one-room country school will, or should, be discontinued. A one-room school in the rural districts, taught by a competent teacher, is still a good place for a boy or girl to get the elements of an education. The United States Commissioner of Education reports that in the school year 1907-1908 there were five and one half million school children and one hundred thirty-four thousand teachers in cities of four thousand or more population; in the outside districts, there were eleven million children and three hundred sixty-one thousand teachers. In the state of Kansas there are two and one third times as many children in the one- and two-room schools and nearly five times as many teachers, as there are in the cities and towns maintaining graded systems of schools.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Better Rural Schools The rural school presents the most important problem in American education. In it are more than six million children coming from one great industry, agriculture the most fundamental and important of all industries. Under present conditions this occupation calls for an unusual degree of intelligence and skill. It demands the highest type of business management and industrial ability. And with the success of agriculture is linked the welfare of every American citizen, whatever be his status or vocation. Yet the rural school, the sole educational opportunity of most of our agricultural population, has been grossly neglected. In the midst of universal progress, it has been allowed to lag behind town and city schools. Abandoned to relative inefficiency, it has failed to hold the loyalty and) support of its constituency. The victim of changing social and industrial conditions, it has dwindled in size, diminished in influence, and lost step with the spirit of the times.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Consolidated Rural School The value of co-operation in place of individualism is rapidly rising in the consciousness of the American people. For many reasons we are far more closely related to more people of the world than formerly and are more conscious of the relationship. This expansion of personality is ready to-day to conceive and to realize feelingly the brotherhood of man and both national and world citizenship. The adjoining farms or nearest small villages do not circumscribe the breadth of our interests, acquaintance, nor economic exchange. To-day we think more in terms of the county, the State, the nation, and the world, instead of provincially limiting ourselves to the farm and the little one-room school district. The automobile, telephone, good roads, trolley cars, newspapers, magazines, and larger administrative participation tend greatly to widen the area of our social connections. The stupendous world war with its unprecedented stimulus to close national organization of railroads, agriculture, and manufacturing, with all their implications of sacrificing individualism to social efficiency, has sent the world, and especially America, a long way toward a desirable organization of all of each nation's forces. The consolidated rural school is part and partner of this broader socialization and integration. It stands for educational efficiency in the interests of the nation and humanity by means of a greater degree of co-operation and organization over a wider area of territory. Already thousands of such schools have displaced the little one-room structures of restricted neighborhoods and mental outlooks from sea to sea.
