This book was released on 2017-09-18 with total page 696 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Higher Education in Rhode Island The early life of the colonies was varied. In Massachusetts the close union of church and State gave rise to a system which early fostered educational movements, although it can not be admired for that amount of toleration which characterized some of her sister colonies. The educational movements in the different colonies varied according to their physical characteristics, personnel and religious rule. In any account of the history of education in Rhode Island, the unity of the work would be incomplete were there no reference to the early colonial period. Were the founders and settlers of this State men to demand and appreciate the advantages of education? Was the environment such.that when an educational movement was started it could grow under the stimulus of a broad and catholic public opinion?

Download or read book The Rise of the High School in Massachusetts written by Alexander James Inglis and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-11 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rise of the High School in Massachusetts: Teachers College, Columbia University Contributions to Educations, No; 45 The high school in Massachusetts had its beginning in the third decade of the nineteenth century. Within that period fall the estab lishment of the English Classical (high) School of Boston in 1821, the founding of the Boston High School for Girls in 1826, and the passage of the act in 1827 which formed the basis of all subsequent legislation affecting the high school in Massachusetts. In a wider sense, however, we must trace the origin of the Massachusetts high school and secondary education in the nine teenth century back to an earlier period, and, to gain a conception of the meaning and extent of the change then brought about, we must examine the conditions prior to the nineteenth century and antecedent to the beginning of the high school movement proper. Such an examination will involve some consideration of the colonial Latin grammar school and of the academies which prae tically dominated secondary education at the beginning of the nineteenth century, together with a consideration of the public school system in general. N o exhaustive treatment of these movements can be attempted here, but sufficient attention must be given to them to afford a knowledge of the situation immedi ately preceding the period with which this discussion is concerned.

This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Origin of the Moving School in Massachusetts The first four chapters - those which deal with the evolution of school control and of school support - may not seem to be logically connected with the subject proper. They are, in fact, an introduction to it, made necessary for the reasons that school control up to the present time has been considered as progressing during the seventeenth century from control of the many to con trol of the few, whereas the reverse is the truth; and also because no study has yet been made, and the results presented, of the subject of school support for this period. While there is a unity in the whole by reason of the fact that it was written from a single point of view - that of describing in a complete manner the origin of the moving school, yet the discussion of the reasons for its creation begins with Chapter V. The preceding chapters serve the purpose of paving the way for a satisfactory presenta tion of the subject proper as contained in the last six chapters.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Record of Education: The Schools and Teachers of Dedham, Massachusetts, 1644-1904 We come now to the next step in the quiet and orderly progress of this young community. The founders of Dedham evinced in many ways their capacity for wise forethought. They evidently regarded them selves as the builders of a town for whose future character they would be held responsible. While they made many good regulations for securing private and individual rights, they never forgot to plan for the benefit of coming generations. Accordingly, as soon as they had established homes of a very primitive style, with very few comforts and no luxuries, they turned their thoughts to the subject of education and there is no doubt that the presence in the little settlement of Several men who had been trained in the universities of the mother country had a most favorable influence in shaping the measures which they adopted.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Development of the New York State High School System Since this general survey was made, only one exhaustive and intensive study has appeared, dealing with a considerable number of schools. This is the monograph of Dr Alexander Inglis, The Rise of the High School in Massachusetts. Doctor Inglis limited his study largely to the period previous to 1860 and, aside from indicating the progress of legislation in the state, he established conclusively the number of schools founded in that period and the nature of the curriculum. This was made possible by a detailed research through the local town records and reports of school committees which in Massachusetts have been preserved with great care.

As friends of the college we desire to-day to recog nize with especial gratitude, by this somewhat extended notice, the profoundly important influence, partly active, partly indirect and incidental, exerted by it from first to last in helping to lay on sound and permanent foundations the Massachusetts system of agricultural education. 'the analogy between its exertions and the later and broader work of our United States Department of Agriculture, which has now grown to be one of the great universities of the world, can hardly have escaped your attention, as I have imperfectly sketched the achievements and influence of this beneficent organization.

The buildings that were erected when the first students appeared upon the college premises were: the south dormitory, a boarding house on the north Side of the ravine, a chemical laboratory, and the botanic museum near the present plant houses. The south dormitory was a building one hundred by fifty feet, four stories in height, and contained twenty-three rooms intended to accommodate forty-six students, together with two recitation rooms, a reading room and library, and two large rooms occupied by the state cabinet of speci mens Of the natural history and geology of Massachusetts. These had been removed to Amherst from the State House at Boston, and con tained the geological specimens collected by Dr. Hitchcock, as well as the valuable collection of birds and animals made by Secretary Flint.
