Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rural Denmark and Its Schools From this it will appear that the great problem of Ameri can rural life is tied up closely with agricultural production. It is not so much a question with us of a largely increased number of producers - although this, too, is desirable as it is a question of a largely increased production. Soil exploitation must be put to an end and scientific agriculture given its rightful day. Thinkers generally are becoming aware that one of our greatest national sins is this soil exhaustion that is actually threatening to undermine the greatest of all our heritages. How to change the prevailing indifferent system of agriculture is right at the bottom of the whole matter.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Teachers Cottages The final result of this combination of circumstances is alto gether unfair, since nearly 60 per cent of the children of school age in the United States are in the rural districts. In the city schools there is manual training for the boys, domestic science for the girls, laboratory equipment of many kinds, and the best teachers that can be secured. The ordinary country school has but little more equipment than it had 25 years ago, which makes it doubly important that the lack of equipment be compensated for by teach ers with more attractive personality, better training, and greater resourcefulness. The disparity between the city schools and the country schools will continue to increase until some means is found to get and hold more experienced and better trained teachers in the country districts. Better teachers result in better school houses and equipment as is well stated by A. C. Monahan of the U. S. Bureau of Education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Danish People's High School: Including a General Account of the Educational System of Denmark The education Of girls seems to have been less specialized. At an early age they engaged in the industries Of the home - sewing, em broidery, spinning, and weaving. They participated in various amusements and mingled freely with the people at festivals and pub lic meetings. Their intellectual training was not entirely neglected, however, for women busied themselves also with poetry. But chiefly by work, play, and free activity were trained the mothers of a sturdy race. The Middle A yes - With the introduction Of Christianity schools were immediately established. The first Christian school is re ported to have been erected in the beginning Of the ninth century by the Apostle of the North, St. Ansgar, for 12 young children whom he, together with his assistants, instructed in Christian learn ing. 1 Throughout Europe during this period there were three chief types Of schools - monastic, cathedral, and burgher schools. Monastic schools were kept by the monks and consisted of two divi sions, an interior school for novices who were to become monks and an exterior department for the boys Of the community who desired an education chiefly for secular purposes. The studies pursued were religion, reading, writing, singing, and the subjects Of the trivium and quadrivium. For the novices there was, in addition, instruction in the rules of the order and some Of the principles Of canonical law. Cathedral schools were established in connection with the cathedral chapters and were training schools chiefly for the priest hood.

This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Little Journey to Belgium and Denmark, for Home and School, Intermediate, and Upper Grades Our journey this month will be to the "land of the wooden shoe," the very tiniest country of all Europe. Looking on our map we find it wedged in between France, Germany, and Holland, but with its northern and northwestern coasts washed by the waters of the North Sea. Its greatest breadth east and west is one hundred and sixty miles. Its greatest length is one hundred and fifteen miles. But though it has an area of only 11,323 square miles, it has a population of nearly seven millions, which makes it the most densely populated country of Europe. In some parts of the country the people are like bees in a swarm. One wonders how they all get a living. The houses are scattered so thickly over the country, and the towns are so close together, that it seems like one city with numberless suburbs. The lowlands of Belgium strongly resemble Holland, Here we have beautiful green fields and gardens separated by canals and ditches. Huge windmills, gaily painted, are as active in draining, pumping, grinding, sawing and pounding as though working for Holland. Besides agricultural pursuits, many of the people are largely engaged in making the earth yield up her store of coal and iron, for Belgium has a mining region that covers an area of 476 square miles.

This book was released on 1914 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wealth, property and contentment of the rural population of Denmark are known to all the world. Students in Denmark and elsewhere familiar with the recent history of the country assert that these are due directly, and almost wholly, to the character and universality of Danish rural education. Probably no other country has succeeded so well in adapting the work of its rural schools to the needs of its rural population. The methods by which this has been done and the results obtained contain valuable lessons for the people of the United States, where the improvement and redirection of the rural schools constitute just now the most important problem of statesmanship. The accompanying manuscript outlines the educational system of rural Denmark. A bibliography is provided. (Contains 9 plates and 11 footnotes.) [Best copy available has been provided.].

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International bestseller As seen in The Wall Street Journal--from free play to cozy together time, discover the parenting secrets of the happiest people in the world What makes Denmark the happiest country in the world--and how do Danish parents raise happy, confident, successful kids, year after year?

Preparing meals together, playing favorite games, and sharing other family traditions are all hygge. (Cell phones, bickering, and complaining are not!) With illuminating examples and simple yet powerful advice, The Danish Way of Parenting will help parents from all walks of life raise the happiest, most well-adjusted kids in the world.

Excerpt: ...it concerned with increasing love of country by giving Information about its language and literature, nature, and history, its conditions in the past and present. In addition, however, it does not lay less stress on giving students love for and knowledge of agriculture. With this aim the subjects of instruction can not be the same as those required for the "preliminary examination," nor the emphasis the same. With reference to method, too, the school must be different from the ordinary type. To be sure, it does not minimize the value of positive knowledge and a training of the intellect in keenness and clarity of thought; its purpose, however, is essentially educative, the development of feeling and the will being considered more significant than the training of memory or intellect. It desires to do for the life of the people what the church desires for the Christian life. Therefore it must lay emphasis on the concrete, the living, the stimulating. An hour of Instruction in which it has been possible to arouse appreciation for the higher and nobler elements in human life, or to stimulate to effective and active service in their behalf, is of much greater importance in the work of the people's high school than an hour which has added to one's store of knowledge or In which the intellect has learned to understand a new grammatical exposition or a mathematical conclusion. These forms of instruction are also included, but merely to serve the chief purpose. Instruction is given, not for school, but for life. What we wish for our students is that they might leave us with a desire to participate In the work of the world, the spiritual as well as the material, and with capacity to use the means which life offers. What they may lack in...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: So great has been the part that the folk high schools and their offspring, the agricultural schools, have had in the intellectual and economic development of rural Denmark that they are worthy of the closest study by those interested in the intellectual and economic improvement of the country's own rural population. The founders of these schools and those who have developed them have broken completely away from ancient educational traditions and, having faithfully interpreted the educational needs of their people, have sought to meet them in the most direct and practical way possible. This Americans also must do if education is to become the vital forge that it ought to be in the enlightenment and development of rural population. The author's own feeling after visiting Denmark and making a serious study of the folk high schools and their methods is that they have some very practical suggestions to offer for the improvement of rural education in this country, particularly in the piedmont sections of the South. The author has attempted, therefore, in this bulletin, to describe accurately the work and methods of the folk high schools and to indicate as definitely as possible how Americans may make application of their best features in the improvement of rural education in these sections.
