Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Student's Textbook in the History of Education From the standpoint of history, education is the means by which nations have attempted to realize their social and spiritual ideals. Every nation that has faith in its ideals wishes to have them transmitted for the benefit of its own posterity, and its system of education is the instrument by which it tries to do this. Because these ideals have been different in the several nations their sys tems of education have differed. And because the ideals of the same nation undergo change its system of educa tion will change. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The book is so arranged as to be studied in either one of two ways: chronologically throughout, by using the marginal references printed in bold-faced type.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Education Inasmuch as the element of authority continues throughout all history as a necessary strand of civiliza tion, it follows that Oriental civilization has important lessons for all people, even the most democratic. The net result of the life of the race must be summed up and given to the child, so that he shall be saved from repeating the errors that had to be lived through before the wisdom expressed by the ethical code could be generalized. Implicit obedience has to be the first lesson for the child. How he shall gradually become endowed with self-control, and finally have the free management of all his affairs, is the further problem of the educational system.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Education in Modern Times More striking characteristics of the book will probably be found in the emphasis laid upon educational institu tions and practices, rather than upon theoretical develop ment; and in the larger place given to American educa tion. The account of each educational movement has included at least an attempt to trace its in uence upon the content, method, and organization Of education in this country, while three chapters have been devoted exclusively to the rise of our educational system. For this somewhat special point of View, I trust that no apology is needed, as the book is intended primarily for use in the United States, and will be of service to our teachers largely as it succeeds in focusing the educational progress of this country. It will be quite possible, however, for those readers in England and other coun tries, who have been so hospitable in their reception of my former works, to neglect or curtail these parts of the book, and still have a body of material sufficient to represent satisfactorily the history of education during the past two centuries.

Download or read book History of Education Classic Reprint written by Thomas Davidson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 308 pages. 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.

Cubberley and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 724 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Readings in the History of Education: A Collection of Sources and Readings to Illustrate the Development of Educational Practice, Theory, and Organization The Readings which this volume reproduces have been collected, from time to time, by the author in connection with the instruction of university classes in the general history of education, and have been used with students as reading supplemental to a lecture course on the subject. They are now gathered together and organized into the present volume, and made to run parallel with and to supplement the authors textbook on the History of Education, published at this same time. The chapter arrangement of the two books is the same, and the different Readings are referred to by cross-reference (R. 172, etc.) throughout the History volume. At the same time the selections are of such a general nature, have been so organized and arranged, and their importance and significance are so explained in the chapter introductions, that the volume of Readings may be used as a reference volume of sources by instructors using other texts on the history of education. The Readings have been selected and arranged primarily with a view to illustrating the history of educational practice and progress and organization, rather than the history of educational theory, though a number of typical and illustrative selections from the more important writers on educational theory, and particularly modem theory, have been included. They have also been selected with a view to illustrating that aspect of the history of educational progress which conceives of educational development as being a phase of the rise and preservation and spread of our western civilization.

This book was released on 2017-09-15 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Student's History of Education There is a growing conviction among those engaged in training teachers that the History of Education must justify itself. It is believed that, if this subject is to con tribute to the professional equipment of the teacher, its material must be selected with reference to his specific needs. Antiquarian interests and encyclopaedic complete ness are alluring and may in their place prove praise Worthy and valuable, but they do not in themselves supply any definite demand in the training of teachers. The greatest services that the History of Education can perform for the teacher are to impel him to analyze his problems more completely and to throw light upon the school practices with which he is himself concerned. By presenting a series of clear-cut views of past conditions, often in marked contrast to his own, it should make him conscious that the present educational situation has to a large degree been traditionally received, and it should at the same time especially help him to understand the origin and significance of current practices. In this way a study of the History of Education will disrupt the teacher's complacent acceptance of the pres ent, and will enable him to reconstruct his ideas in the light of the peculiar conditions out of which the educa tion of his times has sprung. Whenever historical records do not assist in such an analysis and synthesis of present day problems, they may be frankly dismissed from dis cassion. This conception of the subject, I have myself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.

Download or read book Outlines of the History of Education Classic Reprint written by William B. Aspinwall and published by Forgotten Books. 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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 given 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 education itself, rather than a history of educational theory, and presents 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 expansion 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. To this end I have tried to hold to the main lines of the story, and have in consequence omitted reference to many theorists and reformers and events and schools which doubtless were important in their land and time, but the influence of which on the main current of educational progress was, after all, but small. For such omission I have no apology to make. In their place I have introduced a record of world events and forces, not included in the usual history of education, which to me seem important as having contributed materially to the shaping and directing of intellectual and educational progress. While in the treatment major emphasis has been given to modern times, I have nevertheless tried to show how all modern education has been after all a development, a culmination, a flowering-out of forces and impulses which go far back in history for their origin.

Download or read book The Doctrines of the Great Educators Classic Reprint written by Robert R. Rusk and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-29 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Doctrines of the Great Educators A History of Education should explain how educational doctrines are related to the intellectual and social tendencies of the times in which they originated, should expound these doctrines, and should indicate how they affect educational practice. This work does not profess to be a History of Education; it confines itself to an exposition of the doctrines of a limited number of representative educators. It does not deal with their lives. In one respect this is a disadvantage, in another an advantage. It is a disadvantage in so far as the lives of the authors frequently help to elucidate their doctrines; it is an advantage in so far as it enables us to avoid the argumentum ad hominem fallacy which is frequently exemplified in Histories of Education. Students of Education are advised to read the texts of the authors along with the chapters on the doctrines here given. For the doctrines of educators only incidentally mentioned in these pages, or entirely omitted from them, they are referred to such a History of Education as Monroe's d104-Book. Other readers will find the chapters designed to give a general idea of the doctrines of the great educators without recourse to other works.

As a foil to the ideals of education or of instruction presented by the innovators, the actual practice of the seventeenth-century school - room, reformed and unreformed, is described on the authority Of those who knew it at first hand.
