Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays Upon Popular Education: Containing a Particular Examination of the Schools of Massachusetts, and an Outline of an Institution for the Education of Teachers If then it is by the power of the examples which we see, more than by the influence of any and of all other means together, that our characters are What they are in manhood; if it depends upon these, whether we become Pagan, Mahometan, or Christian if it depends upon these, whether we grow up men of principle, or men without principle; men discharging all our duties to God, our neighbour, and ourselves, or men neglecting and despising them all; it would seem to be a matter Of some couse quence that the subject have a little consideration in this aspect of it. It ought to arrest the attention of every man, who is interested in the happiness of his fellow men, of every one who is interested in the character, condition, and prospects of his country, and above all, of every parent, who is interested in the formation of that character of his children, which is to abide by them here, and upon which depends their destiny hereafter. Although we cannot control the examples which may be set before us, we may in a great degree, control those, which we set before others, who will never fail to follow them. And, if my readers will indulge me in a little more preaching, there is no responsibility, which rests upon us, as parents loving our children, as patriots loving our country, as philanthropists loving mankind, or as ration al and immortal beings adoring our Creator, more solemn to us or important to society, than that of yielding our in fluence, whatever it may be, for the improvement and the advancement of the rising generation. Let the path Of virtue be cleared of the asperities with which the ignor ance and the wiles of men have obstructed it, and let it be illumined by the bright and steady example of all, whom children from their infancy most love and respect; and there need be no fear but it will be followed by many, who are now allured or driven from it. Though parents may look with occasional concern upon the gambols Of their little ones by the side of the way, they may be assured that they will always be within call. And when the exu berance of their life and spirits have subsided and less embarrassed reason succeeds, they will be ready to take up the undeviating course of their fathers and turn as anxious an eye upon those who may come after them.

Download or read book The American Model of State and School written by Charles L. Glenn and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2012-04-26 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: State and Schools argues that the American educational model represents a third way of organizing the provision of schooling, and that this accounts for some of its strengths as well as some of its weaknesses. Charles L. Glenn looks closely at the tradition of democratic localism in the management of schooling, and the powerful and anti-democratic effect of the emerging education 'profession,' which has in some respects the characteristics of a religious movement more than of a true profession. A sweeping chronological survey, State and Schools includes chapters on the colonial background, schooling in the New Republic, the creation of an education profession, and the progressive education movement, among others. Glenn's primary purpose, in this authoritative and thoroughly researched book, is to illustrate the deep roots of ways of thinking about schools that have made it difficult for policy-makers and the public to do what needs to be done to enable schools to function as they should, for our society and for future generations.
Download or read book Failure written by Vicki E. Alger and published by Independent Institute. This book was released on 2016-06-01 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship among the federal government, the states, and parents with regard to education is increasingly dysfunctional. Parental control over their children's education has gained impressive momentum in recent years at the state level. Meanwhile, states have been increasingly willing to relinquish sovereignty over education in exchange for more federal dollars. Failure would help bring clarity to these issues by examining whether students and the country better off after 30 years with the Department of Education and suggesting alternatives to an ever-expanding federal education bureaucracy. Part I would begin by examining the development of the current Department of Education, including the legislation that gave rise to it, and the pressure groups that have shaped it. Additional chapters would examine related issues including the arguments for and against the creation of a national education department, its origin, current structure, spending, and growth over time. Part II would examine the results to date against the education department's own standards. These include overall student achievement nationally before and after the advent of the Department of Education as well as international comparisons of U.S. student achievement. Outcomes of some of the largest Department of Education programs would also be considered in this section, along with some of the lesser-known department programs and initiatives. Part III would examine truly federal alternatives to the current tug-of-war between the national and state governments in light of the growing parental-choice movement. Included in this section would be chapters examining a strict-constitutionalist model, which denies any federal authority in education. Another alternative model examined would be the National Bureau of Education model, inspired by the original 1867 precursor to the current Department of Education, whose primary mission was to serve as a repository of information so schools nationwide could emulate best practices. In addition, this section would seek to include cross-country comparisons of education systems of top-performing Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) countries.

Book excerpt: The essays in this volume seek to examine the uses to which concepts of genius have been put in different cultures and times. Collectively, they are designed to make two new statements. First, seen in historical and comparative perspective, genius is not a natural fact and universal human constant that has been only recently identified by modern science, but instead a categorical mode of assessing human ability and merit. Second, as a concept with specific definitions and resonances, genius has performed specific cultural work within each of the societies in which it had a historical presence.
