Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Continuation Schools of Europe The city of Crefeld in the Rhine Province has a population of 110,000 inhabitants. It is a prominent manufacturing center, and is well supplied with industrial schools. Besides the usual elementary and secondary schools, it has an Industrial Art School, a Royal Weaving School, a Royal Dyeing School, and a well organized system of industrial continuation schools. In the following sketch I have tried to show what Crefeld is doing to care for its boys between the ages of fourteen and eighteen, who are compelled to leave school and enter the industries. I have tried, too, to show how the good people of Crefeld, while providing industrial education for their boys, have given careful attention to their physical, social and moral education. Aim Of The School. The industrial continuation school tries to equip young working men to meet the demands of the present economic life, as well as to furnish them general instruction during the important years-between fourteen and eighteen. The problem of these schools is difficult in that the youth must be considered first, as an individual; second, as a member of a trade; and third, as a citizen of the state. The school tries to harmonize these points of view so as to make good men, efficient workers, and good citizens. The industrial continuation school applies the lever at the point of the boy's greatest interest, his chosen vocation, turning to use the eager expectation and joyous ardor with which at fourteen he enters into industrial life. The ever changing demands of modem life with the corresponding changes in methods of production make the master's shop the best place to learn the practical side of a trade. The industrial continuation school has, however, provided school work-shops for some of the trades, not with the idea of replacing the master's instruction, but of supplementing it logically under technical leadership, thus making it possible to turn out a better all-around workman. At this time in a boy's life, he naturally demands the "how" and "why" of everything he sees and does. In the workshop of the master there is no time for this theoretical instruction which is absolutely necessary if the boy is to become a thoughtful worker and not a mere machine.

This book was released on 2017-12-06 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Makers of Europe, Outlines of European History, for the Middle Forms of Schools That such a state of things has so long existed accounts probably for the astonishing lack of interest shown by the majority of young people in a study, which, if intelligently worked at, is full of delight and romance. Our fellow-teachers on the Continent have, I believe, anticipated us in this matter, yet it seems as though England has an especial need of reading her own history in the light of other lands. For her very isolation during her earlier days, and her ambition and aggressive desire of extension later on, brought her into close touch with Europe at all the turning-points of her development. 80 close indeed has been this connection that the greater part of her history can only be fully understood when we place it against the background of European life and progress.

Book excerpt: How do you tailor education to the learning needs of adults? Do they learn differently from children? How does their life experience inform their learning processes? These were the questions at the heart of Malcolm Knowles’ pioneering theory of andragogy which transformed education theory in the 1970s. The resulting principles of a self-directed, experiential, problem-centred approach to learning have been hugely influential and are still the basis of the learning practices we use today. Understanding these principles is the cornerstone of increasing motivation and enabling adult learners to achieve. The 9th edition of The Adult Learner has been revised to include: Updates to the book to reflect the very latest advancements in the field. The addition of two new chapters on diversity and inclusion in adult learning, and andragogy and the online adult learner. An updated supporting website. This website for the 9th edition of The Adult Learner will provide basic instructor aids including a PowerPoint presentation for each chapter. Revisions throughout to make it more readable and relevant to your practices. If you are a researcher, practitioner, or student in education, an adult learning practitioner, training manager, or involved in human resource development, this is the definitive book in adult learning you should not be without.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brings new insights to the music of well-known European composers by telling a fascinating, little-known story about French music publishing, specifically through the lens of Jacques Durand's Édition Classique. French composers, performers and musicologists acted as editors of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century European 'classics', primarily for piano. Among these editors were Fauré, Saint-Saëns, Debussy, Ravel and Dukas; the objects of their enquiries included core works by Rameau, Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Schumann and Chopin. Presenting six composer-editor case studies, the volume shows that the French 'accent', both musical and cultural, upon this predominantly Austro-German music was highly varied. Editorial responses range from scholarly approaches to those directed by performance or compositional agendas, and from pan-European to strongly patriotic stances. Intriguing intersections are revealed between old and new, and between French and cross-European canons. Beyond editing, the book explores the Édition's role in pedagogy and performance, including by pianists Robert Casadesus and Yvonne Loriod, and in the reassertion of contemporary French composition, especially regarding innovation around neoclassicism. It will interest a wide readership, including musicologists, performers and concert-goers, cultural historians and other humanities scholars.
Download or read book Alternative Visions of Post War Reconstruction written by John Pendlebury and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-08-19 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of post Second World War reconstruction has recently become an important field of research around the world; Alternative Visions of Post-War Reconstruction is a provocative work that questions the orthodoxies of twentieth century design history. This book provides a key critical statement on mid-twentieth century urban design and city planning, focused principally upon the period between the start of the Second World War to the mid-sixties. The various figures and currents covered here represent a largely overlooked field within the history of 20th century urbanism. In this period while certain modernist practices assumed an institutional role for post-war reconstruction and flourished into the mainstream, such practices also faced opposition and criticism leading to the production of alternative visions and strategies. Spanning from a historically-informed modernism to the increasing presence of urban conservation the contributors examine these alternative approaches to the city and its architecture.
Download or read book The World War and What Was Behind It written by L. P. Benezet and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The World War and What Was Behind It: Or the Story of the Map of Europe This little volume is the result of the interest shown by pupils, teachers, and the general public in a. Series of talks on the causes of the great European war which were given by the author in the fall of 1914. The audiences were widely different in character. They included pupils of the sixth, seventh, and eighth grades, students in high school and normal school, teachers in the public schools, an association of business men, and a convention of boards of education. In every case, the same sentiment was voiced: If there were only some book which would give us these facts in simple language and illustrate them by maps and charts as you have done! After searching the market for a book of this sort without success, the author deter mined to put the subject of his talks into manuscript form. It has been his aim to write in a style which is well within the comprehension of the children in the upper grades and yet is not too juvenile for adult readers. The book deals with the remarkable sequence of events in Europe which made the great war inevitable. Facts are revealed which, so far as the author knows, have not been published in any history to date; facts which had the strongest possible bearing on the outbreak of the war.
