Book excerpt: Excerpt from Suggested Reforms in Public Schools Many of the laws of health have, since Dr Arnold's time, been ascertained with scientific accuracy, and emphasised strongly by medical and scientific men; and many health reforms have without doubt lately been introduced into schools, as, indeed, has been the case in society generally. But these reforms have been, almost without exception, such as, by their introduction, brought with them no necessity for any change of habit, fashion, or tradition in the school.

Book Organized Health Work in Schools With an Account of a Campaign for School Hygiene in Minnesota  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Organized Health Work in Schools With an Account of a Campaign for School Hygiene in Minnesota Classic Reprint written by Ernest Bryant Hoag and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Organized Health Work in Schools With an Account of a Campaign for School Hygiene in Minnesota In 1900 only 8 cities in America had any organized health work in schools. Since that time over 400 cities have organized departments for the health supervision of school children, and as Dr. Leonard P. Ayres remarks, "this development is without parallel in the history of education." To quote further from Dr. Ayres, "No school (in 1900) had ever heard of a school nurse, for no city in the world employed one; but to-day (1911) 76 American cities have corps of school nurses as permanent parts of their educational forces and 48 cities employ staffs of school dentists." A few years ago the public schools made no provision for the education of the blind, crippled, or mentally deficient, but now in New York City alone there are more than 100 classes for mentally peculiar children, while arrangements are rapidly making for the care of crippled and other classes of physically handicapped children. It was only as recently as 1909 that the first open-air school for tuberculous children was opened in Providence, but to-day such schools may be found in something over 40 cities. The special study of the mentally deficient child has engaged the attention of public school educators for a period of less than three years, but at present plans are rapidly making in many progressive towns and cities for the careful study of such children by the employment of exact psychological methods. All these facts indicate that the physical care of children is engaging the attention of the serious-minded school men. Yet, while all these facts are interesting and significant, it must not be forgotten that no uniform methods of health organization in schools have been evolved, and that there still exist the most widely divergent beliefs and practices in this respect. Health work in schools needs standardization. The experiences of cities already organized in school health matters ought to be studied by other places attempting such organization for the first time. In general it may be safely stated that schools receive what they pay for. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Health Education in Rural Schools  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Health Education in Rural Schools Classic Reprint written by J. Mace Andress and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Health Education in Rural Schools The winning of the war has long commanded the atten tion of the American people. Our resources have been spent lavishly to make secure our liberties and the freedom of the world. Such a supreme crisis in our history revealed inspir ing patriotism, but also a pathetic weakness in our citizens. Out of 06 men who were examined on the first draft, a vast army of men were rejected on physical grounds. A large proportion of these physical defects might have been corrected or prevented if the schools had been doing their part to train children to conserve and improve their health. Such a serious flaw in public education must challenge the efforts of educators throughout the land. Several States, realizing the gravity of the situation, have recently passed laws making physical education obligatory and requiring a more extensive and practical teaching of hygiene.' The war has compelled us to recognize, as we never did before, the fundamental importance of health education as preparedness, not only for military service, but also for happy and efficient participation in civil life. Contrary to tradition and popular belief, country children have been found to be as defective physically and in many cases more defective than city children. Comparatively little has been done so far for the health of country children. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from School Health Administration In general, the thought is that before we can say what the public schools are or should be doing for individual and public health we must determine as accurately as possible with present-day statistics what the health needs and problems of individuals and the nation actually are, and how serious the health problem is, compared with other grave problems of life. The public school's share in the responsibilities for public health amelioration is very great, and growing, due to the lack or ineficiency of other insti tutions for such a purpose, to the admirable conditions of control in a state institution and with compulsory attend ance and general community support, and to the fact that such a large share of health mal-adjustment is due to health ignorance, and the lack of adequate health habits and ideals which it is so largely the special function of the public school to replace with positive health qualities. The princi pal problems of life, whatever they may be, and to be discovered only by a study of life through surveys or any other efficient means, furnish the problems of public edu cation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Suggestions for a Program for Health Teaching: In the Elementary Schools Probably no field of education within the last two years has shown more originality and vitality than that of health education. Experiments have been made not only by individual teachers but by groups of teachers on a large scale. In the midst of such inter esting developments the need of a sound program of health educa tion extending through the grades has become insistent. In this pioneer field certain ideals, principles, and methods have earned merited approval, but the work done has been limited to particular problems. Every serious student of the health situation feels this keenly, but the time is not yet ripe for a definite and complete course of study in health teaching. The whole field is still in a somewhat uncertain state. Educators in general have lost faith in the old fashioned methods.

No more dry husks for me after such a diet, and early in my college life I kicked over the traces and exchanged the ciassics with divers as represented by Pearson, Browne, and Hooker, for Hunter, Lyell, and Huxley. From the study of nature to the study of man was an easy step. My experience was that of thousands, yet, as I remember, we were athirst for good literature What a delight it would have been to have had Chapman's Odyssey read to us, or Plato's Phaedo, on a Sunday evening, or the Vera Historia. What atragedy to climb Parnassus in a fog! How I have cursed the memory of Protagoras since finding that he introduced grammar into the curriculum, and forged the fetters which chained generations of schoolboys in he cold formalism of words.

Book Hawaii s Need of Medical Inspection of Schools  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Hawaii s Need of Medical Inspection of Schools Classic Reprint written by Winfred Howard Babbitt and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hawaii's Need of Medical Inspection of Schools In a small minority of cases were such defects known to parents, teachers, or the children themselves. A local application may not be out of place. Somewhat over a year ago word reached me that a child in one of our city schools had been severely whipped and 1 was asked to look into the case. The teacher admitted whipping the child for inattentiveness and failure to obey orders. A careful inquiry developed the fact that the child was almost totally deaf in the. right ear and that when spoken to from that side she either did not hear at all or so indistinctly as not to comprehend what was said. The condition was unknown to parent, teacher and child. Hawaii has over 18,000 public school children. An examination here would doubtless produce startling results. For the year ending April 30, 1908, the government dispensary gave 4,605 treatments for trachoma to children from only twelve of our public schools in this city. How many private treatments were given, and how many in other places needed treatment, I do not know. Massachusetts has developed a system for testing sight and hearing, which may be applied by the teachers themselves, and the result of one year's work proved its value. Three hundred and forty-nine towns reported 432,937 children examined, with 96,609 or 22 Jo defective in sight and 27,387, or 6% defective in hearing. Physicians state that teachers properly instructed can discover from 75 to 85 per cent, of cases needing attention. The simplicity and effectiveness of the Massachusetts system commend it for adoption here. Exhibit No. 1 shows this system in detail. The cuts of the boy on Card No. 2 are a fair sample of results which may be reasonably expected where treatment is given. The above tests arc ones involving a minimum of time and expense with promise of an unlimited amount of resultant good. Such tests, with arrangements made for furnishing glasses or medical attention at moderate cost to those who could pay, and assistance to those who could not, would remove one great obstacle to the proper development of the child. The primary object of medical inspection in schools was the detection of infectious and contagious diseases and the exclusion of pupils likely to spread same. An elaborate plan of inspection was adopted in New York City. Children having diphtheria, measles, scarlet fever, chicken pox, whooping cough, mumps, acute catarrhal infection of the nose or throat, pediculosis, contagious eye or skin diseases, were sent home. In the first month, 10,567 children were excluded from school attendance. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
