Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Schools at Home and Abroad These essays and addresses on educational topics have been prepared at various times, and for varying audiences. Several of them were prepared for gatherings of. Primary teachers, others for gatherings of parents and persons interested in education. Some repetition and apparent diversity seem almost inevitable in a collection of essays written under these circumstances. Yet the writer thinks that, beneath this repetition and diversity, the essential unity of attitude, so to speak, is preserved. There will be noticed too in the text local references, but the reader will see that the argument demands such local point, and he will be able to vary the reference to suit the environment. The purpose of the writer is not an ambitious one. He makes no claim to originality in any respect. His aim throughout has been to make available to teachers and others interested in education, the valuable mass of material that, in the form of educational statistics and reports, has been collected both by Government offices and by private individuals. Were a list of the many writers consulted added, it would seem pedantic; and, as the author claims no originality for himself, it is hoped that the omission of such a list will be excused.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from State Education at Home and Abroad A democratic system of education gives every child free access to a school under public control; it links the primary to the secondary and technical schools, and these in turn to the Universities; to a talented boy or girl it offers an Open course from Kindergarten to College. England possesses no such ordered scheme. Even her primary schools, the sole class to which she has given tardy and grumbling attention, are not adapted to form the base of a national system.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from School Feeding: Its History and Practice at Home and Abroad The main principle which should guide us in discussing the question of the State and Child Wel fare, I consider, is that the State looks after the child primarily because he is a child, and not because he is destitute or sick or criminally inclined. There fore it behoves us not to wait until one or more of these calamities overtakes him before we super vise his upbringing. This principle was half con ceded by the establishment of an Education Author ity. Half only, for until lately the child's parents still had to be destitute before the State concerned itself in any way with his bodily needs. Years of experience, however, in the teaching of underfed children have brought home to our people the fact that we cannot separate mental and bodily welfare. The prolonged controversy over the feeding of school children has led to the acceptance of a second principle of action: that the welfare of the child should be looked after by one authority only - zia, that the necessary feeding should be undertaken by the School Authority, and not by the Poor Law Guardians.

Download or read book Education Abroad and Other Papers Classic Reprint written by Birdsey Grant Northrop and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Education Abroad and Other Papers For our youth, American schools are better than European. To send our boys or girls away to foreign boarding schools is a great mistake, or rather, one of the fashionable follies which is just now having its day. With fashion one cannot reason. I do not object that this fashion is costly in money, for that is one of its attractions, but costly in what is worth vastly more than gold, namely, character and practical culture. This fash ion of to-day, experience and a wiser self-respect will surely rectify when the comparative results of the two systems come to be better understood. The fond hopes so often wrecked in foreign lands will at least serve as beacons in the future. It is not in France alone that a moral malaria pervades the atmos phere. The example of other cities besides Paris and Naples refutes the plausible but pernicious aphorism of Burke, that vice loses half its evil by parting with all its grossness. In these luxurious centres a voluptuous refinement veils the gross est immorality under simulations of delicacy, if not under the sanctions of law, and licenses vice herself, if only robed in the semblance of propriety. A thin veneering covers the foulest corruption. To offend against taste is worse than to break the ten commandments, and Vice has less to fear than vulgarity.

Download or read book The Teacher s Encyclopaedia Vol 4 of 7 written by A. P. Laurie and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teacher's Encyclopaedia, Vol. 4 of 7: Of the Theory, Method, Practice, History and Development of Education at Home and Abroad This volume opens with the article by Dr. Drummond on "Child and School Hygiene, with some account of Child Physiology and Pathology, including the Commoner Children's Diseases." This article will not only be found of great use to the teacher for his own information, but will also form a useful fount of material for the teaching of hygiene as a school subject. It has been assumed throughout the article that the teacher is familiar with elementary physiology. Dr. Drummond's article is followed by others which deal with the healthy condition of the child, such as "Medical Inspection of School Children," "Physical Training in Elementary, Secondary, and Girls' Schools," "Play," and "The Provision of School Meals." All of these articles are related to Dr. Drummond's article: for instance, in the article on the Provision of School Meals the organisation is discussed, while in Dr. Drummond's article will be found the actual details as to suitable diet; in the case of Physical Training, the exercises necessary for healthy boys and girls are discussed, while in Dr. Drummond's article will be found information as to the treatment of special cases of malformation; and the article on "Medical Inspection" deals with the general organisation of such inspection, while in Dr. Drummond's article many of the actual details of such inspection are given. The volume therefore should be regarded as a whole. In the following volume the subject is completed by articles on "School Architecture," "Open-air Schools," and "The Boy Scout Movement."

Directed by an abler and more experienced hand, they would have winged their way more swiftly and more home to the mark, than is likely to be now the case. Yet, if any benefit ao crues to the wilful, or the depressed; or if a better champion is drawn forth to their succour, - the present Essay will not have failed in its end. It has been long decided by grammarians that the masculine gender is more worthy than the feminine. If, in the present volume, advantage has been taken of this ungallant dogma, it is not from any disrespect to the female teachers of our schools, or by way of excepting them from its discussions, but merely to avoid the constant repetition of the same words.

Download or read book Educational Plans for the American Army Abroad Classic Reprint written by Anson Phelps Stokes and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Educational Plans for the American Army Abroad During the last week in August, 1918, the following cable was received from Edward C. Carter (B.A., Harvard, 1900), the far-sighted Chief Secretary, Y.M.C.A., A.E.F.: "Recruit 600 men teachers as well as organizers in all educational fields, especially History, American and European Institutions, Technical Subjects." The number of men asked for from our colleges and public schools is very moderate in view of the fact that the Army Educational Commission has to provide for the immediate educational needs of an army of 2,000,000 men. The proportion of these eager to pursue some studies in evening hours when at training camps and other places back of the lines, both as a change from military routine and in preparation for life's work on return to America, is much larger than our people at home realize. Army Headquarters in France firmly believes, as will appear in this volume, that an educational program can do much to maintain and stimulate the morale of these men today and that it will be essential to prevent the long period of demobilization from being a period of demoralization. The demand for classes and lectures will, of course, increase enormously when peace comes, but whether this be near or far off, the need of supplying both teachers and textbooks is immediate. The former will be drawn mainly from the Army itself - those sent from this country being employed as supervisors, administrators, and normal teachers. This message, indicating that the time has come for an intensive campaign to secure educational leaders for the American Army abroad, the frequent requests for information from various sources, and the appearance in the daily and periodical press of many inaccurate, incomplete, and unauthorized statements of the Y.M.C.A.'s overseas educational plans have made the publication of this little volume necessary at the present time. The winter - now only two months off - almost always supplies a better educational opportunity than the summer. This general rule holds good in the armies abroad.
