Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Professional Training of Secondary Teachers in the United States Within the last century the educational advancement, at least in the more progressive nations, has been so rapid, the scientific spirit so pronounced, and the differentiation and increased complexity of subject-matter so great, that it has become necessary to simplify the processes of education by more expert teaching. The science of education, depending as it does for much Of its material upon the scientific advancement in other fields of thought, has been slow in its development. But the growth of this subject in late years has been rapid and encouraging. Along with the advancement of the science of education has come a deeper interest in the science and art of teaching and in the professional training of teachers.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on Professional Education But if there be any doubt of the actual exist ence of peculiar genius, and if, on the contrary, there is reason to believe, that all the faculties of the mind can be directed by circumstances to any particular object, prudent parents would de cide as early as possible what the professions of their children are to be, and would trust securely to the power of education.

Book The History of Federal and State Aid to Higher Education in the United States  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The History of Federal and State Aid to Higher Education in the United States Classic Reprint written by Frank W. Blackmar and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-02 with total page 840 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Federal and State Aid to Higher Education in the United States One of the chief difficulties encountered in writing the following monograph, has been to determine what schools should be classified as institutions of higher education. When treated historically higher education is quite relative in its nature. There is no line that can be drawn separating into groups schools of the same grade of work. The names of institutions are misleading; an Old time academy might have been equal in curriculum and instruction to a modern college, and on the other hand a modern high school may be equivalent to an old time college. There has always been a tendency for an institution, when first founded, to take upon itself a great name with the hope of soon becoming greater than its name. All classification is at best merely relative. Under such circumstances there is only one alternative - to classify institutions appearing under the names of college and uni versity as schools Of superior instruction. On the other hand, many normal schools have courses of instruction ranging into the classics and higher English branches. But as these schools are professional, being devoted to the preparation Of teachers in the primary and secondary schools, they are naturally excluded from the classification under higher education. They should be treated by themselves, and it would be exceedingly interesting to trace the history of normal education in the United States. The question of determining the position of pure agricultural and technical schools, where the chief work has been directed to manual training rather than to theoretical knowledge, is not easily settled. In this monograph the agricultural and mechanical colleges have been in cluded, as upon the whole the best solution of the question.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Opportunities for Study at American Graduate Schools At the same time increasing numbers of students from other countries are following courses in pure science and the humanities. In American colleges and graduate schools, Inquiries concerning the scope and conditions of work of this kind in the United States come more and more frequently to the Federal Government and to the officers of the various colleges and universities. Both American and foreign educators have, therefore, been led to consider carefully the desirability of encouraging this ow to the United States of students who seek general nonprofessional higher education. The consensus of opinion appears to be that while such movements tend to promote. International understanding, and hence are desirable, the greatest benefits are likely to be reaped by those who come to the United States for advanced study after the completion of their general liberal training at home. Such students are more mature. They are better able to represent and interpret the spirit of their own nations, better able to comprehend the life and purposes of the. United States, more likely to return to their own countries when the period of university training is ended.
