Book excerpt: Excerpt from The High School as a Social Centre Basis of Future Growth - Differentiation, however, only marks growth; it does not produce it. What grounds are there for believing that differentiation will take place? Why may we expect to see the new social function of the high school become definitely a part of the responsibilities of the principal, to be consciously developed and expanded by him, to be correlated with the work of his faculty and his students, and, finally, to be so thoroughly integrated in the life of the municipality as to give his institution a power and in uence now hardly conceivable? A prediction Of so sweeping a char acter can find a rational basis only in the existence of permanent forces or tendencies which, working together, will produce such a result. How soon it may be realized no one can confidently say; that the outcome will be pre cisely as prophesied no one can guarantee; but that the course of evolution is already in that direction is a fact which needs no demonstration.

Download or read book The High School written by John Elbert Stout and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The High School: Its Function, Organization and Administration The American high school has in a new sense become the school of all the people. It is here that a constantly increasing proportion of our young people receive their final training for the social duties and opportunities that await them. In order to meet the demands made upon it, the high school is under the necessity of redefining its aims. This requires a careful examination of the means employed - curriculum, organization, and teaching. Reorganization is demanded and it should result in both progress and stability. Traditions should not be allowed to stand in the way of necessary readjustments, nor should the glamour of things new lead us to engage in hasty and ill-advised experiments. This volume is an attempt to state the principles that should guide in the process of reorganization. The author has felt the need of some such treatment during several years of service as high school teacher and principal. More immediately the work is the outgrowth of courses in school administration given for prospective high school teachers. It is intended primarily for the use of students of education in normal schools and colleges, and for teachers and principals of limited experience. It is hoped that it may possess some value also for all high school workers who feel the need of reorganization in high school education. Part I deals with the function of the high school. Means cannot be intelligently chosen or wisely used in the absence of clearly defined aims that will actually serve as guides in practice. In the belief that generalized aims do not serve as useful guides in the daily work of the school, the several points of view from which the education of youth should be regarded have been emphasized and discussed in detail.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A High School and Its Immigrant Community: A Challenge and an Opportunity In New York City, the public-school system occupies not only an important strategic position but also a unique position in the life of the community. It is the only social agency that has direct contact with practically every family within the com munity and the education law makes this contact with the family compulsory from the early childhood to the late adolescence of every boy and girl. This is important when one realizes that the public-school system functions in a city which has a population of close to seven million people, of whom one million two hun dred thousand go to school.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The High School's Cure of Souls Nor can the over-intellectualism of the university graduate be a surprize to any one who realizes the vast transformation from the older type of American college, with its deep ethical and religious character, to the university of today with its intense specialized teaching and study on the one hand, and its absorbing athletic and social life on the other - a trans formation pictured with power and fidelity by Mr. Clarence F. Birdseye in his really great book, Individual training in our colleges. What the American high school needs is just what English Rugby needed and what the immortal Arnold gave it thru his teaching and example, and as Hughes says, above all thru his unwearied zeal in creating moral thoughtfulness in every boy with whom he came into personal contact.1 Woe unto the land if its future leaders lack moral thoughtfulness in its fullest sense: both the righteous intent and the practical wis dom; only by these two elements combined in our statesmen and citizens can the republic be saved and the nation fulfil its destiny.

This book was released on 2017-12-11 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Status of Certain Social Studies in High Schools It has been suggested that the introduction of courses dealing with modern social and economic problems, particularly with questions of income, wages, strikes, and similar subjects, would be dangerous and cause considerable criticism. The replies indicate that this is not the case. In response to the question, Have you received any suggestive criticisms of any of these courses from parents or others outside the school? Only 527 out of the replying answered yes, and of this number the majority (346) indicate favorable criticism. There were, in all, only 182 adverse criticisms, and a large proportion of these (69) dealt with technical aspects of the course. For instance, one critic believed more time should be given to marketing problems; another that the use of statistics in sociology was a waste of time; one said that economics dealt too much with problems of the city in comparison to rural problems; and another that the daily papers do not provide reliable material for reference work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The High-School Age Probably most people appreciate that a human being in his progress from birth to maturity passes through certain ages or epochs, each characterized by peculiar tendencies and activities. If one should ask a man whose business it is to study human nature for practical reasons which of these epochs is of the greatest importance, he would undoubtedly say the period of the teens. He would probably declare that during this period the individual is being molded into final form in body and mind, and that whatever impressions can be made upon him at this time will be likely to be permanent. People are beginning to take this view; for during the last few years much has been said by observers and in vestigators respecting the chief characteristics of this period. All have noted the appearance of new interests and activities, and the development of ex treme sensitiveness to various influences which have been practically unnoticed up until this time. The views of the practical man of affairs and the seien tihe student ofgmental development have been in accord with the views of the poets, who never tire of describing the freshness and enthusiasm and abounding vigor, as well as the excesses and the strains and stresses of this age.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American High School The problems of the American high school are specific. They differ much from those of the elementary school below and those of the college, university, or technical school above. The experience of the last half century has revealed them; it has also developed a considerable body of knowledge concerning them, which every high school teacher should possess before entering upon his work. This knowledge will not solve all his individual problems, but it should at least make him aware of their existence and suggest the solution which he must himself work out.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Making High School Life Count We live in an age when the world has become a neighborhood, and democracy hastens the day of human brotherhood. In a neighborhood, men must work, play, and live together; and the business of living together becomes of paramount interest. High school life furnishes many teen-age boys with some of their first lessons in this business of living together. This is true because of an inborn desire on the part of high school boys to associate with one another for the accomplishment of a common purpose, through clubs, social activities, organizations, and athletics. This fact furnishes the basic elements in the school community life and many splendid lessons in community living may be learned from it by high school boys. There is a real need of closer cooperation between school and actual life, and a need of reproducing real community life within the school. The pupils must learn that harsh and unyielding demands for one's rights are impossible in the school community. As Allen Hoben, in his book, "The Church School of Citizenship," says, "The fragrance of the American ideal is not that of a single flower, but rather the successful blend of many."

Download or read book The High School written by Frank Webster Smith and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The High School: A Study of Origins and Tendencies The high school is coming into its own. Secondary education has begun lately to assume a prominence and to have a recognized importance such as would be suggested by the priority of its development. As the painstaking historical survey in the following chapters makes clear, formal secondary education was developed ages before any need for organized elementary education arose. The latter came later as a necessity following the development of written language. Such a historical study of secondary education is of value because it is a study of a great development, an examination of secondary education as an important and interesting sociological phenomenon. It is, besides, a practical investigation of the varied applications of means to ends that have been developed in each of the epochs of secondary education. It presents a study of a pivotal institution and of its relations to different times and conditions. The aim toward which the present movement in education is tending is universal complete education within the limits of the public school period. This of course means that the number of high schools must be increased many times, and these high schools, in order to meet present and future social conditions, must evolve out of historic education. The present book may well serve as an aid in studying this great movement and in guiding it with historic judgment. To study a problem we must know its roots. The study thus becomes of immediate practical value to every teacher and parent of adolescents. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Modern High School, Its Administration and Extension: With Examples and Interpretations of Significant Movements Among the fairly distinct problems confronting the serious student oi our modern high schools are those of the specific adjustments which may be made consistent with the gradually clearing conception of social educa tion. At present we do not perhaps greatly need any more books which attempt merely the consistent for mulation of theories of social education. One example is worth a thousand arguments, says Gladstone. This book contains those accounts and expert indorsements of high-school movements which are illustrating for us the only kind of social education which as yet can have definite meaning. The cumulative results of these ac counts and definite points of view furnish data for a respectable social philosophy of education. The field covered is simply that indicated by the title of the vol ume: i. E., a survey of policies, examples and sugges tions of ways and means of making the strictly socializing work of our actual high schools more definite, more effect ive and more nearly universal.

Download or read book The Scope and Content of the District High School Classic Reprint written by Gilbert Burnet Morrison and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-17 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Scope and Content of the District High School A curious and interesting fact in the growth of school systems may be noted here. It is that tendency to set the newly acquired studies off by themselves. The first illustration of this may be remembered by a visit to the old Latin and English high school of Boston. This building was planned by Mr. John D. Philbrick and marked an important step toward the introduction of science into the high schools. This transition left its mark on the.build ing. The two assembly rooms on the third' floor each capable of seating 800 persons would of course serve the purpose of a modern high school by uniting them into a single room capable of seating the whole school, but it was necessary at the time of erecting this building in 1877 to provide separate rooms for the classical and mathematical students, and those taking the English and science branches. These two classes of students were not allowed to assemble together! The relation which in some locali ties still lingers between Manual Training and Commercial branches and the rest of the school existed between the Classical and Science branches thirty years ago! Manual Training High Schools and Commercial High Schools were built in various cities, containing in their curricula varying amounts of academic work. They have all succeeded and have drawn students in great numbers, but the tendency of these schools has been to add more and more of academic work to their courses till some of them already have the full high school course of study contained in other schools preparing their pupils for all courses in college. Some, like those of Denver, Kansas City, Indianapolis and St. Louis were made complete at the start and they all became immediately popular.
