Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Consolidation of Country Schools, and the Transporting of the Scholars by Use of Vans The following Bulletin upon "The Consolidation of Country Schools and the Transportation of the Scholars by Use of Vans," was prepared by H. H. Longsdorf, M. D., of Dickinson, Cumberland county, Pa. The investigation was undertaken at the instance of this Department for the purpose of securing accurate data showing the methods and expense involved in the centralization of our public schools to a centrally located graded school, including the practicability of taking the scholars to and from the central school in comfortable conveyances. If the country schools cannot be thus centralized, then there is no possibility for their ever attaining the rank now enjoyed by town and city schools, and country people have no hope of ever being able to give their children the advantages in education to which they are entitled, unless they remove them from the country and send them into the towns. If, on the other hand, centralization is feasible, then a new era is begun in country life, and the question of the proper education of country children is completely solved. The inadequate character of the present system and the impossibility of its meeting the needs of country people, was discussed by me in a paper read before the State Teachers' Association, at its meeting in Williamsport last July, which shows the situation and expresses my views so exactly that I take the liberty of quoting from the paper in this preface. In that paper I state: "That if the country school is to fulfill its mission to its community as the hand-maid of agriculture, it must be different from the town school. It must be a school adapted to the needs of the community in which it is. It must he an adaption of education to need. The farmers needs are varied, most important and urgent. To meet them he must have the advantage of the best school; and the best school for him is the one that teaches him the things that he needs to know. "What does he need to know? What are the farmer's educational needs? As a man and a citizens his needs are precisely the same as those of other men and other citizens - fully as great; no less. He must be taught the things that other men and other citizens find it necessary to know - to read, to write, to compute.

This book was released on 2018-02-14 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Consolidation of Country Schools Letters were sent to all the states of the Umon asking what had been done, if anything, and how it had succeeded. Opinions were collected both from professional educators and from farm ers who had experienced the workings of the system, all from sources the most diverse. Aside from this, a trusted agent of the institution visited the region In Ohio where the system had been longest in use, with instructions to note all the conditions found both favorable and unfavorable. The investigation was begun and conducted without bias or previously formed impressions as to the merits or demerits, ad vantages or disadvantages of this method of administering the school system. As the investigation proceeded, however, the conviction that is inevitable to anyone who really studies this question gradually forced itself upon the consciousness and, in spite of efforts to the contrary, the reader will detect its pres ence in the mind of the writer at the time of putting the data in final form.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Consolidation of Schools and Public Transportation of Pupils Public transportation of pupils is a new undertaking among us. With the exception of a few wagons operated in Wake, Cumberland and Rockingham counties last year, it has not been undertaken, so far as I am informed. The last General Assembly, in recognition of the successful experience of other States in transporting a large number of their children at public expense, made provision for counties in this State, in which conditions are favorable therefor, to undertake this work. A copy of the law will be found on the cover page of this bulletin. I am reliably informed that arrange ments have been made to operate a good number of wagons this year.

Download or read book Country Schools for City Boys Classic Reprint written by William Starr Myers and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2019-02-17 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Country Schools for City Boys However, what the public at large has failed to accomplish for all the children private individuals have been able to accomplish for a few of the more fortunate. The idea of the country school for city children, supported by private tuition and private means, as worked out practically at Baltimore, has extended in some degree to all parts of the country and will probably become quite common. The story of this movement, as told by Dr. William Starr Myers in the accompanying manuscript, is both interesting and suggestive and should be known to all who are working for the betterment of the material conditions of schools for city children. I therefore recommend that this manuscript be published as a bulletin of this bureau and would call especial attention to the suggestions made by Dr. Myers as to the possibility of applying this principle to the public schools. It is quite easy to see how this might be done for the public high schools, at least of most cities, with little or no additional cost to the public for buildings, grounds, and equipment, or to indi vidual parents and children for transportation. It has frequently happened in the history of education in this and other countries that movements for the betterment of the public schools have begun in a small way with private schools as the result of the enthusiasm and earnestness of only a few individuals. It is sincerely hoped that this movement, begun at Baltimore in a private way and already extended to a dozen cities, may become a great national movement for the betterment of the public schools, in which the great masses of children are educated.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Among Country Schools This book is not a scientific treatise on education nor a manual of methods for the teacher. This may be the need for the country school. If so, some one better fitted must undertake the task of its preparation. This little volume is not even a book on agriculture. It may be fairly questioned whether or not the country school teacher needs something else before a text-book on the science and practice of farming.

Download or read book The Country School Classic Reprint written by Clifton Johnson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Country School This book is in no sense a history of education, but is an attempt to present intimately and clearly the salient features of the schools of the last century in their more picturesque and poetic aspects. I do not deal with theories or ideals or technical details, but portray those things which linger in the memory of whoever has attended such schools. The charm of the old school days never wears off - and it is the charm that dwells in ones remembrance, even if there was some bitter mixed with the sweet. My endeavor has simply been to make this mystic and delectable past alive once more. The material is not a compilation from other books, but is based entirely on personal experiences, in part my own, but more largely those of friends and acquaintances. Some of these friends and acquaintances are no longer living, and the reminiscences of the earlier schools with which they supplied me it would be difficult again to duplicate.

Download or read book The Structuring of Organizations written by Henry Mintzberg and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Synthesizes the empirical literature on organizationalstructuring to answer the question of how organizations structure themselves --how they resolve needed coordination and division of labor. Organizationalstructuring is defined as the sum total of the ways in which an organizationdivides and coordinates its labor into distinct tasks. Further analysis of theresearch literature is neededin order to builda conceptualframework that will fill in the significant gap left by not connecting adescription of structure to its context: how an organization actuallyfunctions. The results of the synthesis are five basic configurations (the SimpleStructure, the Machine Bureaucracy, the Professional Bureaucracy, theDivisionalized Form, and the Adhocracy) that serve as the fundamental elementsof structure in an organization. Five basic parts of the contemporaryorganization (the operating core, the strategic apex, the middle line, thetechnostructure, and the support staff), and five theories of how it functions(i.e., as a system characterized by formal authority, regulated flows, informalcommunication, work constellations, and ad hoc decision processes) aretheorized. Organizations function in complex and varying ways, due to differing flows -including flows of authority, work material, information, and decisionprocesses. These flows depend on the age, size, and environment of theorganization; additionally, technology plays a key role because of itsimportance in structuring the operating core. Finally, design parameters aredescribed - based on the above five basic parts and five theories - that areused as a means of coordination and division of labor in designingorganizational structures, in order to establish stable patterns of behavior.(CJC).
