Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Consolidated Rural School These remarkable transformations are worthy of the closest study, interpretation, and publicity. Isolated reports, surveys, and single chapters fail to do justice to the theme and fail also in acquainting many people with this type of solution of the great rural-school problem. We greatly need a first-class, thoroughgoing book, based on investigation, nation-wide acquaintance with this type of school, and thor oughly and cautiously worked out and illustrated. Such a volume few busy educators have time to produce. Feeling the need, however, the editor has done his best in producing such a volume by the method of co-operation of specialists found successful in other volumes of this series. We do not hesitate to pioneer and open up the way for more thorough going works in the future. Our purpose is practical, directed to immediate and wide publicity of a very worthy hypothesis for the solution of a very grave problem, how to secure better rural education in this democracy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rural Education and the Consolidated School Much has been written of late concerning the Rural School Problem. All students of country life seem to agree that a radical readjustment of the entire rural educational and social system, to fit modern conditions, is imperative; but while a few of the leaders have hewn close to the vital spot, none so far have gone straight to the heart of the subject. The author is convinced that the time has come when we must insist upon a full program of reconstruction from the ground up, and begin to build at once. The gist of the problem is to establish a new school in which the essentials of a modern education can be taught. The old school, as still found in over ninety per cent of the rural districts, does not lend itself to such a program; and no amount of repair, addition, varnish, or veneer will transform it into an efficient, modern institution. Rebuilding is absolutely essential. Some friends of the rural school advocate comprehensive changes in the curriculum and justly demand that the training of country boys and girls shall culminate in a complete industrial and vocational education, adapted to twentieth-century life. They are agreed that rural teachers must measure up professionally and otherwise to their colleagues in our best school systems; they recognize that salaries paid must be adequate to insure high-class training and instruction; and yet - they fail to see that these things are impossible in an obsolete school system in which the first elements of success are wanting. The one-room school must go. It cannot provide the education to which country boys and girls are entitled and which the welfare of the country demands.

This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Consolidation of Rural Schools and Transportation of Pupils at Public Expense Introduction, - "Consolidation of schools" is the term used when two or more school districts are made into a single district, one school in one building replacing two or more small schools in several buildings. In some States when but two schools are replaced by one, the new school is called a "union" school, the term "consolidated" being applied only when three or more schools are replaced by a single school. In other sections the term "consolidation" is used only in speaking of a school to which children are transported at public expense. When a single school is abandoned on account of the lack of sufficient pupils to keep it open, and the children attend school in a neighboring district, the term "consolidation" would seldom be applied. Consolidation in its best form takes place when schools not forced to close for lack of pupils are deliberately abandoned for the purpose of creating a larger school where more efficient, work may be done, or equivalent work at less expense. Ohio uses the term "centralization" instead of "consolidation," a centralized school being one located where it may be most convenient for the children of an entire township. Sometimes the "centralized" school is located in the village nearest the center; sometimes it is located in the open country. Some of the Ohio centralized schools are housed in two or more buildings; the usual number, however, is but one. Many Western States have schools which to all intents and purposes are consolidated or centralized schools, although they do not replace older one-teacher schools. They are the original schools built to serve large territories and existing from their first establishment as two or more teacher schools. The two primary motives in the movement for consolidation have been and still are (1) for the purpose of securing better educational facilities, and (2) for the purpose of decreasing the cost of education on the school district. Considerable space is given to the discussion of both of these subjects later in this bulletin. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Country Life Education Classic Reprint written by United States Department Of Agriculture and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2019-02-03 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Country Life Education Success had hardly been attained in collegiate courses in agriculture when secondary schools for agricultural education began successfully to develop. In 1888 the University of Minnesota began an experiment at developing an agricultural high-school course. This experiment is of none the less value anal of all the greater interest because it was an outgrowth of the failure of agricultural courses of collegiate grade to gain a foothold in a State university. Just as Congress by its landgrant act forced colleges of agriculture upon the State, this agricultural high-school movement was injected into the school system upon the initiative of farmers and business men. At present between thirty and forty agricultural high schools have been established in the United States. In one line of country-lit'e education school men and nonschool men have together taken up the practical in school work. Farmers and educators together have entered upon the development of rural schools so as to have them cover agriculture and home economics as well as the Three R's. Thus the school people are especially championing the consolidation of rural schools, and the farmers are laying stress upon the introduction of agriculture into all rural schools. Both classes are rap idly coming to favor both propositions. The farmers are coming to see that agriculture can not be successfully introduced into the one-room rural schools, and the teachers are coming to see that agriculture and home economies are to have very strong positions in the primary country school curriculum alongside the Three R's.

When it is suggested for the rural school, however, where its need is more deeply felt, many persons think its accomplish ment impossible. The warm lunch, when this term is used, refers, of course, _to that portion of the whole lunch which is prepared. At school. It supplements, but does not supplant, the lunch brought from home.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Training School Quarterly, Vol. 2: January, February, March, 1916 The study of foods is such a new subject in rural schools that they are not bound by traditions of equipment and methods of work that so Often prevent progress in town and city schools, but are, fortunately, free to work out their salvation in their own way, and a few favored ones are taking advantage Of this to make the work a vital part of the school life, shared in by all, instead of setting it apart for the Older girls, while the younger Ones and the boys look on with envy. In the ordinary One or two-teacher school it is not possible to do much along this line, for the teachers are already overworked; but the new consolidated rural schools with three or four teachers and a room for this work have a wonderful Opportunity to do some very practical work in foods, and at the same time to provide every day a hot luncheon, or at least one hot dish to the primary department if not to the entire school. A course in foods begun in the lowest grade and continued for eight years would give Opportunity for forming valuable food habits while the child is still young enough to be readily influenced, whereas, little habit formation can be accomplished in a short course, given to half-grown girls at an age when to be different is desirable, and the fact that they don't like this, and nothing on earth. Would induce them to eat that, is a sign Of superiority rather than of ignorance and narrow mindedness. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rural School in the United States Another illustration of our uniform quantitative attitude is to be found in the development of our common school course of study from the three R's. That it has been a case of quan titative rather than qualitative enrichment goes without say ing This line of enrichment has run through the interest ing fields of history, geography, algebra, physiology with all of its hygiene and temperance addenda, drawing, object lessons, vocal music, nature study, literature, language work and ele mentary science. Now the loudest cry is rising from every educational assembly for deliverance from the tyranny of this whole quantitative procedure. We have not abandoned our idea] of enrichment, but we can procure real enrichment only through the elimination of all that is unnecessary or antiquated in our present course of study.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from On the Training of Persons to Teach Agriculture in the Public Schools If the foregoing points are well taken, we then see that the prob lem of training teachers to teach agriculture in elementary schools is much more than providing them with an equipment of agricultural subject-matter. Here and there the special teacher of agriculture will be needed in elementary work, as' in certain consolidated rural schools, and in well-graded city or village schools. Now and then teachers will be needed to supervise the work in agriculture in sev eral related schools; but Cxperience will probably demonstrate that in most cases this will be only a temporary means of handling the subject, in order to organize it and to start it.
