Download or read book American Schools Classic Reprint written by Oscar Fay Adams and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Schools In the pages that follow there has been no attempt at comprehensive accounts of the educational institutions named therein. Even had the requisite space for such treatment been available it would have been foreign to the purpose of the book itself. That purpose, briefly stated, was to supply a readable, though necessarily superficial description of nine American preparatory schools, touching but lightly on their scholastic side, yet giving within certain prescribed limits such impressions as the average observer would obtain in the course of a visit to each, together with some little account of their history in each case. The most of readers will probably find themselves more or less familiar with the history and customs of at least one school among the nine, but few persons, it is probable, are equally well acquainted with them all.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American High School The problems of the American high school are specific. They differ much from those of the elementary school below and those of the college, university, or technical school above. The experience of the last half century has revealed them; it has also developed a considerable body of knowledge concerning them, which every high school teacher should possess before entering upon his work. This knowledge will not solve all his individual problems, but it should at least make him aware of their existence and suggest the solution which he must himself work out.

Download or read book American Education Classic Reprint written by Andrew S. Draper and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-11-08 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Education IT is nearly a quarter of a century since Mr. Draper eu tered upon the work of educational administration to which his life has since been given. He brought to this high task an unusual natural endowment and a still more unusual experience with men and affairs. He did not come to the task of administration from the school-room or the labora tory, but from most active participation in affairs and with the practical interests of men. Experience had given him a sense of proportion and perspective, as well as a knowledge of men, and nature had endowed him with a simple and sturdy directness of thought and speech which gave added weight both to his words and to his deeds. N 0 other American, I think, has, like Mr. Draper, been successively charged with the administration of a state system of public instruction, with the oversight of the schools of a city of considerable size, with the direction of one of the tax-supported state universities of the country, and finally with the supervision and control of the educa tional activities of an entire commonwealth. As a result, Mr. Draper has been forced, in the daily performance of the duties of his several offices, to approach the educational problem from many different points of view and to see it under almost all of its limitations and difficulties. He has been a frequent and persuasive speaker at educational gatherings and assemblies, and he has written much for publication, in addition to the preparation of luminous, as well as voluminous, official reports. The fruit of this unusual experience and activity is pre sented in this volume in something like systematic form.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Home School of American History We talk a great deal about our power but we do not realize it; we cannot realize it until we understand what it is which gives us power. We use a great many figures to convey an impression of our acreage and crops; but it is the farmer, the mechanic and the merchant who are the real capital of the country. Their character, energy, intelligence, thrift and practical sagacity constitute our real wealth the wealth which is not subject to the fluctuations of the market or the untimely conditions of the weather.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Graded Schools in the United States of America Travelling from the Atlantic to the Pacific, as far north as Montreal and as far south as St. Louis, I felt again and again that to know American Education would need more years of study than I had months in which to see and to hear. A Western State I found to be a different country from an Eastern State; the former seemed bound by no traditions, governed by no conventionalities, narrowed or hampered by no class feeling, whether as regards people or work; and as necessity is the mother of invention, so a new State evidently must be the parent of fresh experiment in every profession, business, or trade. The whole country is so huge, the possibilities so enormous, and the resulting conditions so diverse, that beyond the broad principles of government which underlie the organizations of education, I have found it impossible to give generalizations.

Download or read book The American School Readers written by Kate Forrest Oswell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-16 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American School Readers: First Reader The american school first reader is planned as the children's second reading book. It assumes that they can read the usual vocabulary of a good primer, either of this series or of any other. It is, however, closely related to the American School Primer. The children and their pets, whose acquaintance was made in that book, appear again here, with new experiences, in the earlier pages. But the keynote of the book is children's lore. The characters of the primer appear less and less frequently and finally drop out altogether. The latter part of the book contains children's literature only. The authors believe that this literature is of so excel lent a quality that it will intensify the interest of chil dren in the reading book, and hence in learning to read, and will also implant the seeds of good literary taste. Carefully organized lists of words for phonic drill are given on pages 135 - 137. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
