Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Secondary Education SO in that Of universities and colleges, the advance ment in the character and methods of teaching has been less palpable, largely owing to the unhappy predominance in Oxford and Cambridge of the examination system, with its cramping influences and its tendency to induce a narrow and sordid View Of learning and culture. Still, taking the higher education as a whole, the record of progress during the last twenty-five years is an encouraging one, not unworthy Of the efforts of the many able and public-spirited men who, especially in the north and centre of England, have laboured in this cause.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Principles of Secondary Education: A Textbook Since the first edition of this volume was issued seven years ago, there has been a rapid development in some aspects of the American high school. The function and educational value of the several studies have not been materially changed; consequently no sufficient reason exists for altering the parts of this book that pertain to those topics. Much pressure, however, has been brought to bear upon the high school to compel it to alter somewhat fundamentally its leading purposes, especially with respect to vocational ends. This powerful modern movement calls for a reexamination of educational principles in the light of present conditions. What high-school leaders and teachers seem most to desire is a perspective of the whole a situation, in order that they may estimate correctly the validity of the respective claims of general and special education, for they fluctuate according to the needs and conditions of various locations. To meet this need for perspective, six chapters upon "Basic Ideals for Educational Progress" have been added.

Download or read book Studies in American Education Classic Reprint written by Albert Bushnell Hart and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-15 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in American Education The six essays which make up this volume have been prepared at various times and deal with a variety of subjects. Nevertheless there is between them a thread of connection and re lation. They all are based upon two funda mental ideas: that education is substantially one from beginning to end, so that the same or similar methods may be applied throughout; and that teachers of every grade and subject have a common interest and may learn from each other. They are the outcome of a desire to make some small contribution to the great common fund of experience. That so many of these essays deal with the problems of the primary and secondary schools needs no apology. Every American must feel an interest in the systems which reach the great est number of pupils, and lay the foundations for later study. A short service in the Cam bridge School Committee has taught some thing of the aims and practical difficulties of primary and secondary education.

This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 776 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Principles of Secondary Education In the construction of a book on the principles of second ary education one of two methods may be employed. A number of specialists may collaborate in the production of a book which consists of several more or less isolated treatises on various separate phases of secondary education. Such a method has many merits, but precludes the develop ment of a consistently constructive theory. On the other hand, when a single individual attempts to write a book covering a field as broad as that of secondary education, there are always two possible dangers: either the limitations of the individual may lead to superficial treatment and error, or unsupported personal opinion and bias may dominate. The first of these dangers is minimized when the writer refrains from attempting to deal with the details of teach ing appropriate to the various studies of the secondary school program and confines this attention to more funda mental principles. In this book the author deals with special studies only in connection with the broader matters of aims and values, together with the larger elements of method necessarily involved. A later volume in this series will deal with the principles of teaching in the secondary school and several volumes will deal with methods of teaching special subjects or groups of subjects.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Schools and Studies Browne, Medical Lunacy Commissioner for Scotland, thus sums up his observations: The drunkard not only injures and enfeebles his own nervous system, but en tails mental disease upon his family. His daughters are nervous and hysterical; his sons are weak, wayward, eccentric, and sink under the pressure of excitement of some unforeseen exigency or the ordinary calls of duty. Science has not yet fathomed this deep profound she has not shown how far these transmitted in uences may reach but certainly beyond children's children. The Jewish prophet says the edging of the teeth caused by eating sour grapes reaches to the third and fourth generations. N or let it be supposed that only evil in uences are handed on to posterity. Good in uences are transmitted in the same way. Health and strength are perpetuated as well as disease and weakness; were it not so, the human race would have perished long ago. What a powerful deterrent from vice, as well as stimulus to virtue, we have here, let Dr. Carpenter tell.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Problems of Secondary Education In the mean time we as a people have experienced vast and far-reaching social and industrial changes, which have profoundly modified almost all phases of life among us, and the end is not yet in sight. From a small and an isolated nation, with simple social and industrial and political problems, we have evolved into a world-power with world-problems to be faced. From a rural and an agricultural nation we have in large part changed into an urban and a manufacturing nation. New social and industrial classes, with new social and industrial needs, have developed among us. Many new trades and callings and professions have been evolved, each in turn demanding special and ofttimes extended training.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in the Teaching of History The following pages are concerned with the teaching Of boys and girls in the middle forms Of secondary schools, and even for this stage deal with only a small number Of the numerous problems presented by the teaching Of history. They aim at bringing into strong relief a few fundamental positions, and make no claim to be an ex haustive treatment of the subject.

Download or read book Principles of Teaching in Secondary Education Classic Reprint written by Herbert H. Foster and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Principles of Teaching, in Secondary Education "The bane of high school science teaching is the notion that it must be taught differently from other subjects." These words, spoken to the author by a widely known science teacher, are in harmony with the statements of many prominent and successful teachers in other branches of high school study. Some years ago, having occasion to make a comparative study of all the available books on the teaching of secondary school subjects, the author was impressed by the striking parallel between the best of the books whenever method of instruction was treated. The chief differences were matters of omission, and the omissions in books in the same field were far from being the same. The only possible inference was that certain general principles of method are valid in all of the studies of the high school curriculum, and that the task of each teacher is not to construct his educational method regardless of these principles, but to adapt their application to his particular field. The present text is an attempt to assist the prospective or untrained teacher in a study of the principles upon which method in secondary instruction must be based. The book is a protest against formalism and mechanism, on the one hand, and unsystematic procedure on the other. The point of view is functional, in that in each step there is a procedure from discovery of aim to adaptation of process to aim. The author is also governed by the conviction that a well-planned lesson is more than a mere series of topics for study, but as a whole possesses an organic unity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Secondary Education There was as yet no distinctively American character. Two Opposing in uences were at work shaping the colonial life: the first was the spirit of protest against European institu tions, which many of the colonists had brought with them from the Old World; the second was the ever-present instinct of imitation. Real American schools might be expected to develop with the development of real American nationality. In the beginning, there could be only such schools as might arise under the mingled in uence of a desire to be like the mother-country and a desire to be different.
