Book Education for Liberty  Vol  3  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Education for Liberty Vol 3 Classic Reprint written by Kenneth Richmond and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-19 with total page 258 pages. 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 mean ings 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.

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.

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.

This book was released on 2018-09-21 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Quarterly Journal of Education, 1832, Vol. 3: January-April It will of course be their duty not to sanction anything incon sistent with the general principles of the Society. Subject, however, to this general superintendence, they feel that the objects of the Society will be better forwarded by placing before the readers of this work the sentiments of able and liberal men, and thus enabling them to form their own conclusions, as well from the difl'erence as from the agreement of the writers, than by proposing to them, as if from authority, any fixed rule of judgment, or one uniform set of opinions. It would also be inconsistent with the respect which the Committee entertain for the persons engaged in the preparation of these papers, were they to require them strictly to submit their own Opinions to any rule that should be prescribed to them. If, therefore, the general effect of a paper be favourable to the objects of the Society, the Committee will feel themselves at liberty to direct its publication: the details must be the author's alone, and the opinions expressed on each particular question must be con sidered as his, and not those of the Committee. As they do not profess to make themselves answerable for the details of each par ticular essay, they cannot, of course, undertake for the exact con formity of the representations which difi'erent authors may make of the same facts; nor, indeed, do they, for the reasons already given, feel that such conformity is requisite.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Liberty The necessity of teaching, not only to young Americans but to all prospective Americans, the meaning and mis sion of political liberty has but lately found expression in the movement known as Americanization. What is liberty as exemplified in American institutions? Where and how did it originate? Through what struggles and triumphs has it advanced? What peoples have always been its defenders, and how have its influence and bless ings been finally extended to include all nations of the earth? It is upon a knowledge of the facts implied in such questions as these that young American Citizens, whether native or foreign-born, are to become truly Americanized.

Book Democracy and Education

Download or read book Democracy and Education written by John Dewey and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 1916 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: . Renewal of Life by Transmission. The most notable distinction between living and inanimate things is that the former maintain themselves by renewal. A stone when struck resists. If its resistance is greater than the force of the blow struck, it remains outwardly unchanged. Otherwise, it is shattered into smaller bits. Never does the stone attempt to react in such a way that it may maintain itself against the blow, much less so as to render the blow a contributing factor to its own continued action. While the living thing may easily be crushed by superior force, it none the less tries to turn the energies which act upon it into means of its own further existence. If it cannot do so, it does not just split into smaller pieces (at least in the higher forms of life), but loses its identity as a living thing. As long as it endures, it struggles to use surrounding energies in its own behalf. It uses light, air, moisture, and the material of soil. To say that it uses them is to say that it turns them into means of its own conservation. As long as it is growing, the energy it expends in thus turning the environment to account is more than compensated for by the return it gets: it grows. Understanding the word "control" in this sense, it may be said that a living being is one that subjugates and controls for its own continued activity the energies that would otherwise use it up. Life is a self-renewing process through action upon the environment.

Book The Training School Quarterly  Vol  3

Download or read book The Training School Quarterly Vol 3 written by East Carolina Teachers College and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-07-11 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Training School Quarterly, Vol. 3: April, May, June, 1916 There are a few teachers of the old line subjects who have a sort of abhorrence of anything new in the school curriculum. They are often inclined to sneer at such courses because they are not along the lines which they have been teaching, or which they themselves have taken in high school or college courses. Students following the classical, literary, or Latin scientific courses are often inclined to look with disfavor upon the courses which may include agriculture, manual training and home economics. They show their disfavor and make fun of the students who pursue such courses. Students taking agriculture are given opprobrious epithets, being called hayseeds, farmers, and even more obnoxious names. They sometimes make fun of students taking these courses, calling them snap courses, accusing them of taking such work because it is easy. Perhaps such students are not to be blamed, for they see country life only from their own limited experience and most of the agriculture with which they are familiar is, perhaps, the old line agriculture which does not appeal to them in any way. They, of course, fail to realize that in the South eighty per cent of the people are agriculturists, and that farming is the fundamental occupation of the whole country and the whole world. On the other hand, in many places we find the agricultural courses are thorough and yet popular. Students find much value in them and pursue them partly because others are doing so, but chiefly because of the real value and interest found in them.

Book The Education of the American Citizen  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Education of the American Citizen Classic Reprint written by Arthur Twining Hadley and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-02 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Education of the American Citizen IN many of the political writings of the day, there is a tendency to lay too much stress on the mechanism of government and of industry, and too little stress on the force by which this mechanism is kept at work. In recent educational movements, also, too much thought is perhaps given to the problem of preparing men and women to take their several places in a social machine, and too little to the development of that power and spirit upon which the perpetuation of our whole social order depends. From my public addresses and magazine articles of the past few years, I have tried to select those which emphasize the more neglected side of these questions, and to arrange them in a continuous series. In a book thus prepared, it is inevitable that there should be some repe tition and some apparent inconsistencies. If the reader is perplexed by any of these things, he will perhaps find the explanation in the date of the different utterances and the special conditions under which they were made public.

This book was released on 2016-08-21 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Training School Quarterly, Vol. 3: October, November, December, 1916 Vocational education for the preparation of the great industrial masses, constituting 90 per cent of the total population of the United States, for more efficient and profitable work, is not only an economic necessity in a democracy, but also a democratic right and obligation. Without it this vast majority cannot have equality of opportunity to work and to live, to get the most for themselves, and to contribute the most to others. But vocational education will prove in no high sense a preparation for democracy unless there be developed with it a sense of obligation and a desire and determination to use increased efficiency to give more as well as to get more.

This book was released on 2016-12-25 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Training School Quarterly, Vol. 1: July, August, September, 1914 Perhaps the trouble lies in our lack of positive convictions as to the purposes and aims as well as the end or destiny of human exist ence. Do we inquire into the why of things? Why the earth itself? Why the human race upon the earth? Why all the things we see and know, and what are their relations to each other and to us? A degree of harmony and interdependence between the forces Of nature with which we come into contact argues an intelligence antedating the existence of things. The existence Of the cause being established it should be easy for us to recognize from the harmony which exists in what we call the natural forces of the universe that there was and is a great plan, a deliberate scheme or schedule involving the universe, a definite purpose. When the divine voice commanded let there be light, the impelling motive was not merely the exercise of con trol over the elusive forces of awakening nature, for idle or uncer tain purpose, but rather the definite calling into existence of an ele ment for which there would be imperative need in the unfolding of a definite plan.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Training School Quarterly, Vol. 3: July, August, September, 1916 Acting upon a motion of the commission at the last annual meeting that the supervisor conduct industrial work on the Centennial playground, mate rials were purchased for the purpose and actual instruction begun. Instruc tion was given in basketry, weaving, sewing, wood-working, etc. Two periods a day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, were devoted to this work, which soon became the most valuable, as well as the most popular, activity on the playground. Adults, as well as children, took advantage of this instruction, the attendance increasing over 50 per day as a result of the introduction of this feature on the grounds. The articles made were all use ful, rather than ornamental, although much of the work was elementary. Beginning today this work will again be conducted. At the conclusion of the summer it is planned to conduct a public exhibition of {he handwork done upon the playgrounds. An additional sum, about $50, should be devoted toward this work for the coming summer. Last summer was the first summer for all day playground activities. The grounds were kept Open each day from 9 O'clock until o'clock at night. An average attendance of over 200 children was recorded daily. The play ground furnished the following activities during the months of June, July and August: Base-ball and basket-ball for the boys; basket-ball and volley ball for the girls, quiet games and guessing games for the warm hours of the day, running jumping and the various contesting games for both boys and girls, quoits and horseshoes, tennis for children and adults, checkers and chess, puzzles for the smaller children, swings and hammocks for others, basketry, weaving, sewing for girls and boys, woodworking for boys, a sand bin with shovels and buckets for the very little children, indoor play space for rainy days, circulating library, story hour, hikes and tramps through the woods, Boy Scout activities, Camp Fire Girl activities, camping out over night, two band concerts and several picnics.
