Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Preparing for Citizenship: An Elementary d104book in Civics At the close of each chapter in the text, the teacher will find questions and topics for further study and investigation. The more simple investigations only should be undertaken in classes composed of the younger pupils. Care should be exercised, also, in selecting only questions of especial interest to the particular community; for example, rural schools will naturally omit many questions pertaining to urban conditions, and vice versa. As a rule, it will be best to assign one question to each pupil, or to a group of pupils, to be reported on at a future date. The teacher should suggest sources of information for pupils to make use of in their investigations. Often the parents, or older brothers and sisters, can give the necessary help; or, again, it may be advisable to consult local officials for information concerning their work. Members of the class should be encouraged to visit township, county, and municipal offices; and local officials should he invited to come before the class and describe the business of their departments. Added interest may be secured by organizing the class into a town meeting, or as a city council, State legislature, or branch of Congress. A bulletin board in the classroom for newspaper clippings pertaining to governmental affairs will prove interesting and helpful.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Citizen and the Republic: A d104-Book in Government His volume is intended as a text - book for use in courses in Civil Government in secondary schools. It should (6 follow, or accompany, a high school course in American History. It is an attempt to answer the demand for that if Which is needful and important in the new civics some times called community civics, and at the same time to hold fast to that Which is good in the old. S, In introducing an educational reform there is always Q danger of over - emphasis; there is danger that we may not ?%have a good thing Without having too much of it. The '9 authors of this volume, While emphasizing community civics and the moral purposes in teaching government, have sought to avoid a one - sided course. They believe that the schools should study the community and such new civics as the changing times call for, and especially that they should give attention to current history and present day problems of democracy; but it is equally important not 3 to neglect certain aspects of the old established order. It may be well to set pupils to the laboratory method of studying the g actual life of our city communities, how milk and water are g supplied, how food is distributed, how public health is pre ss served, how the streets are kept clean (or dirty), how the taxes are raised and used, and how the schools are sustained. But to limit a high school coursein civics to such a field of study is to commit a great wrong to young people Who are under training for citizenship.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Philosophy of Citizenship an Introduction to Civics for Adults The illustrious Turgot once said that the study of the duty of citizenship ought to be the foundation of all other studies and we might say that Civics is the connecting link between other studies, binding them also to life and reality. It is essentially a subject of connections it links all times and periods as part of the long chain of achievement beaten out by civilisation; it connects all subjects as part of the life-story of mankind, and reveals them as aspects of its manifold activity; it carries everyday life into the school and study; and it joins the needs of to-day to the results of yesterday and the hopes of to-morrow. As the electric spark causes the junction of oxygen and hydrogen to form cleansing water, so the spirit of Civics joins the study and the street to form an element of purification for the city and country.

Download or read book The Rights and Duties of American Citizenship Classic Reprint written by Westel Woodbury Willoughby and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rights and Duties of American Citizenship The purpose of the present work is to present to American youths practical information as to the rights and duties which attach to American citizenship. In the effort to do this in the clearest and most logical form, the stereotyped method of giving a running commentary upon the Constitution has been discarded. Of all political forms, the federal type is the most complex; and it is, therefore, little short of absurd to attempt, as do so many text-books on Civics, to explain to students who are without previous training the constitutional relations of our elaborate system of national, state, and local governments, without first giving to them a knowledge of the nature of political authority, the purposes for which it exists, and the general governmental means through which such purposes are attained. In the present work it is believed that this error has been avoided. The student is first given that information which is essential to an understanding of citizenship and government in general, before he is called upon to study the description of our own complex government in particular. This book is therefore divided into two parts. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book What to Do for Uncle Sam written by Carolyn Sherwin Bailey and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from What to Do for Uncle Sam: A First Book of Citizenship The United States Bureau of Education lays emphasis upon the part of the schools in training for citizenship. It urges a new teaching of the subject, beginning with the home, going on to the school, and from there into community relations. The Government asks, also, that work in civics be begun in the elementary schools. The work should embody less of the details of governmental agencies, but focus instead upon the child's own community obligations and activities. Following this thought, and taking up the program of community civics outlined by the Bureau of Education, I have written "What to Do for Uncle Sam," a first book in patriotism and citizenship. At the end of each chapter I have placed questions and suggestions which establish a contact between the classroom and community life. The book lays emphasis on the home and the local community. The child may find many illustrations of the subjects in his own environment. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Community Civics Classic Reprint written by R. O. Hughes and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Community Civics A nation is safe for democracy only when it is composed of citizens who think seriously intelligently, and who act on their convictions. The boys and girls of our schools constitute the source from which a thinking citizenship of this kind must be developed. Every one is in some degree his brother's keeper. The belief that these three principles are true and fundamental is responsible for Community Civics. It is not a compilation of facts. Some facts are vital, and most of the specific statements of the book are worth remembering, but the great emphasis has been placed on making the pupil think for himself. As an aid in this direction, questions and suggestions for thought and investigation are placed in the body of the text where the pupil cannot help seeing them, as well as at the end of each chapter. There are also special topics requiring original investigation, which can profitably be assigned to individual members of a class; but neither the questions nor the topics are exhaustive, nor does each class need to take up every one. The method of approach and the order of treatment follow in the main the recommendations of recent Committees on Social Studies, without adhering slavishly to any one outline. The student is first introduced to his own community and its immediate problems. Then he takes up the framework of government, without a knowledge of which the larger problems cannot be properly comprehended. Finally these broader questions, sometimes termed the "problems of democracy," are laid before him. In studying government, the federal government is taken up first.
