Book excerpt: Excerpt from Current Activities and Influences in Education, Vol. 3: A Report Upon Current Educational Movements Throughout the World, Being the Third Volume of "the Annals of Educational Progress" In this new era, therefore, mere knowledge will no longer suffice. The people must not only know, but they must also have the power and the will to perform. The individual has so greatly increased in worth that we must put all of his possibilities in an efficient school. To do so is no light task. No one place, no one peo-ple, can see the way alone. He who would deal wisely with and for the school must be in touch with all. But the school has also both Opened and Spread beyond its own doors. It is not only influenced by all human activity, but it is also rapidly reaching out to touch all activity with its magic wand. This still further widens the outlook and the field of work.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Current Activities and Influences in Education, Vol. 3: A Report Upon Current Educational Movements Throughout the World, Being the Third Volume of "the Annals of Educational Progress" Few realize the significant changes that have occurred in the aim and spirit of the school within the past ten years. In educational affairs the lapse of a decade now marks a new era. So rapid is the general progress of mankind that this is also true of industrial, political, and social life. But the developments in education have this distinctive feature, they are less restricted by the stress of actual conditions than are other forms of human activity. Even under the pressure of modern competition the school finds it both possible and desirable to do something more than fit its pupils for a definite career. This is the answer to those who would insist that schooling need be little more than an apprenticeship for the shop or the counting-house. Nowhere is the world's need limited alone to trained workmen, no matter how great their skill. We need happy, contented workmen as well as skilled workmen. And nowhere shall we rise to the plane of leadership, even in industrial competitions, until we have given to our pupils not only an understanding of specific industrial problems, but also that wider and vastly more significant equipment which enables them to sense the relative value of things about them and easily to find their place in the larger social, civic, and economic environment into which they must enter. And these larger demands are, after all, more in accord with the spirit of the times. There was a day when knowledge was the only thing demanded of the school. And in a still earlier epoch even this was not deemed the need of all. When the State was everything and everything was for the State, the only training necessary for the masses was that they should learn to obey; and protection was the only right which they could claim in return. But with the growth of wealth among the common people came increase of power and by and by a voice in their own control. With the beginning of constitutional government and the introduction of the ballot, a new order of things was well under way.

Download or read book Education in Developments Volume 3 written by Magnus Haavelsrud and published by Arena. This book was released on 2020-04-19 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this peace education book - "developments" in its plural form - is inspired by the Swedish social scientist Gunnar Myrdal when he - in criticizing dominant thought in economics in the 60ies - described development as an upward movement of qualities of value in a society and in the world. This book considers peace as a value. According to Johan Galtung`s recent theory, peace is built through upward movements of equity and empathy as well as processes of healing of past and present traumas combined with nonviolent conflict transformation. These peace qualities can be investigated in all places and times ranging from everyday life to the global level. It is argued that educational energy from below and political energy from above tend to seek harmony - even in contexts of strong antagonism between cultures and structures. This dynamism can be reflected in criticism of and struggles against problematic contextual conditions as well as in constructive ideas and plans for how those conditions can be changed. The cultural voice of education is therefore of political relevance pointing towards the need for transformation of problematic - sometimes violent - contextual conditions. In case such circumstances prevail, pedagogic activity may respond by adapting to the status quo - or resist. If such resistance is not possible within formal education, it is always possible (to varying degrees of difficulty and danger) in informal and/or non-formal education. In Part 1 it is argued that education in developments towards more peace is a topic of transdisciplinary magnitude. It comprises contents ranging from dyadic relations (and even inner peace) to the overwhelming structures on the global level. Micro cultural qualities meet qualities in global structures and their relations are decisive in the creation of more peace developments - involving actors from individuals to nation states and global corporations as well as organizations at any level/time. Chapters 1 through 3 introduce theoretical perspectives on education in developments towards peace in which the complexities of its substance not only pose the question of what is to be regarded as valid content, but also how contents relate to varying communication forms and differing contextual conditions. Dialectical relations among contents, forms and contextual conditions are central in transdisciplinary methodologies - embryonic roots of which are found in peace education initiatives as exemplified in the struggle against South African apartheid, Borrelli ́s social work among street children in Naples and Nomura ́s lifelong integrated education originating in Japan (chapter 4).In Part 2 it is argued that the understanding of relations between micro and macro requires respect for multiple epistemologies rooted in peoples ́ life worlds when seeking their participation in developments towards more peace. Life worlds portrayed in novels written by young South African authors serve as examples of how people relate to each other in the transformation from apartheid to democracy (chapters 5 and 6). Chapter 7 highlights the roots of present constitutive rules inherited from past empires and chapter 8 discusses how social science is still characterized by multi-paradigmatic tensions in its understanding of power and knowledge.Part 3 deals with educational policy and methodologies. Chapter 9 presents an educational policy-making framework for participation, democracy and nonviolent civic resistance in Latin American circumstances. Chapter 10 discusses issues of transnational and neoliberalist policymaking in education furthered by OECD and the last chapter revisits peace learning methodology in light of Johan Galtung`s theory of peace.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Educational Situation, Vol. 3 Horace mann and the disciples of Pestalozzi did their peculiar missionary work so com pletely as intellectually to crowd the conserva tive to the wall. For half a century after their time the ethical emotion, the bulk of exhorta tion, the current formula and catchwords, the distinctive principles of theory have been found on the side of progress, of what is known as reform. The supremacy of self-activity, the symmetrical development of all the powers, the priority of character to information, the necessity of putting the real before the symbol, the concrete before the abstract, the necessity of following the order of nature and not the order of human convention - all these ideas, at the outset so revolutionary, have filtered into the pedagogic consciousness and become the commonplace of pedagogic writing and of the gatherings where teachers meet for inspiration and admonition.

Download or read book How College Affects Students written by Matthew J. Mayhew and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-08-23 with total page 788 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The bestselling analysis of higher education's impact, updated with the latest data How College Affects Students synthesizes over 1,800 individual research investigations to provide a deeper understanding of how the undergraduate experience affects student populations. Volume 3 contains the findings accumulated between 2002 and 2013, covering diverse aspects of college impact, including cognitive and moral development, attitudes and values, psychosocial change, educational attainment, and the economic, career, and quality of life outcomes after college. Each chapter compares current findings with those of Volumes 1 and 2 (covering 1967 to 2001) and highlights the extent of agreement and disagreement in research findings over the past 45 years. The structure of each chapter allows readers to understand if and how college works and, of equal importance, for whom does it work. This book is an invaluable resource for administrators, faculty, policymakers, and student affairs practitioners, and provides key insight into the impact of their work. Higher education is under more intense scrutiny than ever before, and understanding its impact on students is critical for shaping the way forward. This book distills important research on a broad array of topics to provide a cohesive picture of student experiences and outcomes by: Reviewing a decade's worth of research; Comparing current findings with those of past decades; Examining a multifaceted analysis of higher education's impact; and Informing policy and practice with empirical evidence Amidst the current introspection and skepticism surrounding higher education, there is a massive body of research that must be synthesized to enhance understanding of college's effects. How College Affects Students compiles, organizes, and distills this information in one place, and makes it available to research and practitioner audiences; Volume 3 provides insight on the past decade, with the expert analysis characteristic of this seminal work.

This book was released on 2017-11-20 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Survey of the Public Schools of Philadelphia, Vol. 3: Types of Schools, Teachers, Vocational Education Provision should be made in the curriculum for the introduction of additional play and work exercises adapted not only to age but to individual needs. The conditions, materials, and activities most favor able to the growth of the children at this stage should be the guiding factors in curriculum making. Each daily session is divided into short periods of from fifteen to thirty minutes duration. Very often there are two thirty-minute work periods in a half-day program. In a few programs there are work periods of fifty minutes, but in general there are no long ones. A longer work hour is needed for constructive work or representative play when initiated and self-directed by the children. Methods of Instruction. The most common procedure is to conduct the various activities such as games, rhythms, story telling, oral language exercises in one large group under the direct control of the teacher. For block building and construction work the children are divided into three groups, each division working at a different occupation. The work in these groups is graded according to the progress of the pupils and is directed by the teacher. For little children they are orderly and responsive. Sometimes the children are allowed to make their own plans and carry them out in small groups of their own choice. Here most of the teachers need expert guidance in encouraging self-initiated problems. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Education for Liberty, Vol. 3 This might be described as a book of educational themes with variations. The variations are not, as the musical kind often appear to be, meant only to embroider and complicate the themes. They are rather intended, as musical variations ought at least to be intended, to develop the meanings that are latent in the themes. I have a reason, or at least an excuse, for adopting this form. The book is about the unity of knowledge, and about methods for establishing that unity; and if I treated the methods 'systematically,' in the sense of elaborating them singly, each for itself, I should not be able to dwell upon the unity which, between them, they are there to maintain. In school practice, we have to weave the different principles of method together; and I want to present school method as it can be woven together in school practice, under the hands of teachers. And in doing this I want to carry with me as many as possible of those who, although keen to help in the educational renascence, are as yet unfamiliar with the main principles of educational advance.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Harvard Monographs in Education, Vol. 3: Standard Educational Tests in the Elementary Training Schools of Missouri; Studies in Educational Psychology and Educational Measurements; June, 1922 The special problems which were met with in this survey, and which are discussed in the following pages, were in large measure due to the small numbers of children in the various groups compared. If the ad vantages which may result from the use of standard tests are not, how ever, to be limited to large school systems, these problems must be solved. That they were, for the most part, successfully met in the pres' ent instance will, it is believed, be borne out in the following report.
