Book excerpt: Excerpt from Open Air Crusaders: A Report of the Elizabeth McCormick Open Air School, Together With a General Account of Open Air School Work in Chicago and a Chapter on School Ventilation Eskimo suits which were guaranteed to attract the attention and arouse the interest of the most indifferent reader. This definite demonstration of the remarkable effects which the fresh air treat ment brings about in sick children set people in general, fathers and mothers, as well as teachers and doctors, to wondering what would be the results of similar treatment upon well children. As a result of the general public interest, the Board of Education of the City of Chicago on December 29, 1909, voted to establish twenty open window rooms in the Graham school, where the experiment had been under way in two rooms since September. On September 10, 1910, orders came from the superintendent's office to open all the windows in all the public schools of the city at least three times a day. The twenty thousand windows were opened.

This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 194 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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Massachusetts System of Common Schools: Being an Enlarged and Revised Edition of the Tenth Annual Report of the First Secretary of the Massachusetts Board of Education To write a History of Popular Education in Massachusetts would be a work of great interest, and of little difficulty. Such a history, however, seems not to have been contemplated, and, therefore, would not be warranted, by those Resolves of the Legislature under which the following pages are prepared. The Resolves provide only for the republication of so much of his [the late Secretary's] Tenth Annual Report, as, with the requisite additions and alterations, Will exhibit a just and correct View of the Common School system of Massachusetts, and the provisions of law relating to it. An adequate idea of this system, however, can hardly be obtained without a brief reference to its origin, and to those great fundamental principles, which its authors and supporters seem rather to have tacitly assumed than to have fully expounded.

Download or read book The Annual Report of the Trustees of the Massachusetts Hospital School at Canton 1913 Classic Reprint written by Massachusetts Hospital School and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-12 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Annual Report of the Trustees of the Massachusetts Hospital School at Canton, 1913 Except as a matter of curiosity it was not necessary to prove, as we did by actual test, that our monitor-roof wards could be cleared Of a smudge in about thirty-five seconds, while it re quired more than thirty minutes to clear our indirectly venti lated schoolrooms. The air in the schoolroom, after it had been occupied for a few minutes by a small class of 12 or 15 pupils, as compared to the air in a ward Of 40 children was enough to condemn the indirect system without question. A great change has taken place within a few years in the ideas entertained in the scientific world in respect to ventilation, a change which has led and is still leading to the most important practical results. The generally understood fact that ventila tion means the circulation Of air has led to the introduction Of an endless number and variety of methods of heating and ven tilating which so direct the air currents that the foul air close to the ceiling and in corners is not removed, and the occupants of most well-ventilated rooms unconsciously breathe a mix ture Of both foul and pure air. Our dormitories, with ceilings sloping to a long line Of open windows on each side Of the roof, have been found by actual experience to afford most perfect ventilation. The difficulty, however, in finding means to pre vent leakage around the windows on the windward side during severe storms led to the experiments which resulted in the con struction Of one ward at the infirmary with a flat roof extending the full width Of the ward. In this way the ideal method Of ventilation was not affected, and the flat roof projection not only prevented the windows from leaking when they were closed, but it was also found that they could be kept Open on the windward as well as on the opposite side during all ordinary storms. Having demonstrated that the flat roof not only did not impair the efficiency Of the ventilation system which we have come to regard as indispensable, but that it was actually improved thereby, a second story for the new cottage was sug gested, and as it is already being copied elsewhere it may not be improper to predict that it will meet rapidly increasing favor.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Massachusetts Public School System The system of public education in Massachusetts is characterized by a maximum of local independence with a minimum of central control. The efforts of the state are directed toward stimulating, directing and supplementing local activity. Its legislation in the main follows local public sentiment and embodies current local practices. Many of its requirements are mandatory upon a part of the municipalities and permissive to most of them. The following outline indicates chronologically the successive steps in the development of the system. The chosen men appointed for managing the prudential affairs of towns charged by the General Court with the duty of requiring parents and masters to train their children in learning and labor and other employments which may be profitable to the Commonwealth. The school system formally established by the General Court. Reading and writing schools required; also grammar schools. Expense to be borne by the towns or the parents or both at their pleasure.

School for Feeble-Minded Youth and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-18 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Eleventh Annual Report of the Massachusetts School for Idiotic and Feeble-Minded Youth, 1859 It is not easy to give this wise direction at the out set, but in time it may be done. The matter, how ever, requires great care and study. Indeed, a little thought shows us that the higher impulses have as much need of trained wisdom for their guidance as the lower ones have. If men follow blindly the com passionate instinct, their obedience will perhaps work for their own moral good, but not necessarily for the good of others. Going blindly, they are liable to go wrong, and to harm both the cause they have at heart and the class they would relieve. Many evils and abuses follow this blind action. Alms, in order to bear good fruit, must not be sown broadcast, and left upon the ground without culture, else, instead of fair fruit, we have the 'tree covered with thorns. The contrast between public charities administered Wisely and faithfully, and those not so administered, is very striking. Now it is a very common error to find arguments against public charities in the gross abuses to which they are liable, and to Oppose the establishment of certain institutions for the relief of suffering, upon the ground that they have been tried elsewhere and failed to do much good. But often a careful examination of the circumstances under which public charity is administered will lead to a final conclusion exactly opposed to the first ap parent one, and will show that the compassionate im pulse missed its object merely because, being itself blind, it did not take wisdom for a guide.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Progress in High School Education in Massachusetts The observers of glaciers in Switzerland sometimes set up a straight line of stake's across the surface of the ice field, and presently finding the stakes have moved and the straight line has become a curve, measure the movement of each stake and thus discover the fact and the law of the glacier's motion. One is a little surprised on learning that his unassisted observation has failed to detect a movement in the glacier varying from 300 to 600 feet a year, or from one to two feet a day, and that these mountainous piles of ice, apparently as firm as the rocks that support them, are in reality gliding torrents of vast and resistless energy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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 Before the publication of "Letters on the Free Schools of New England," in the autumn of 1824, it formed a part of the original design of the author to pursue the subject in a series of papers of a more popular character. Accordingly, during the winter of 1824-5, the following Essays were published in numbers in the "Boston Patriot" with the signature of "Franklin." Apart from the great faults in the government and instruction of the common schools, arising chiefly from the ignorance and inexperience of the teachers employed in them, many intelligent and patriotic citizens had come to regard with deep regret the course of legislation, in this state, upon the subject of popular education generally. The free schools, strange as it may seem, had received almost no legislative attention, protection, or bounty, for nearly forty years. Of course, instead of taking the lead in improvement, as they should have done, they remained as nearly stationary, as any institution can remain, in such an age and such a state of society, as those in which we live. Some men of longer foresight, and many, whose interest in the subject, was quickened by their having families to educate, saw and lamented this state of things; but as it was less trouble, on the whole, to build up schools of their own, than to reform those already in existence, they sent in their petitions to the Legislature in great profusion for acts of incorporation, and for pecuniary assistance to enable them to establish Academies under their own direction. These petitions were usually granted; and donations, small ones to he sure, were made to further their objects. But the obvious tendency of this course of legislation was to help directly those citizens who least needed help, and to encourage precisely that class of schools, which, if they were necessary, would spring up spontaneously without the aid of legislative bounty. Within a few years, even these higher schools, from their unwieldy organization, have ceased to afford such instruction as the public require; and private establishments begin now to take the lead of them.

This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evolution of the Massachusetts Public School System a Historical Sketch By common consent the teachers of the United States would choose Massachusetts as the State possessing the most interesting educational history. Even though each teacher should express his first preference for his own State, there would be found great unanimity in the second choice. Upon close examination it appears to the student of education that each State has something unique, some phase of development better represented than can be found elsewhere. In the history of education, as in that of other provinces, it is not merely the invention of good methods that profits us, but the discovery of the bad effects that follow from the use of methods not good. The demonstration of the evils incident to a certain course of study or practice in school administration is a permanent contribution to the science of pedagogy.
