This book was released on 2018-02-27 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teaching of Agriculture in the Public Schools Here again one can give no intelligent answer until one knows definitely what courses in secondary agriculture involve, the laboratory equipment needed, and the training demanded of the teacher. Then one needs to know the actual equipment of our high schools and high school teach ers, and the possibilities for training such teachers as are needed for this work. All of the facts which are needed to answer intelligently these and other questions involved in the introduction of agriculture into our pub lic schools are easily obtainable. To blunder ahead without first study ing carefully these facts and providing a rational plan, based upon the results of the experience of others and upon a knowledge of the facts involved, would be an educational and political crime. This Bulletin attempts to give briefly these facts. While we do not propose to offer here a complete plan for the intro duction of agriculture into the public schools, we feel that the facts which are presented make clear at least the following points.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Educational Agriculture Ordinarily, in the development Of a subject it is necessary to have regard for a linear sequence only, though the work may be cumulative and the later stages assume a knowledge of all that has preceded, or at most the change of attitude is gradual. In this subject it seems necessary for the delimitation of the different phases that these changes of aspect be abrupt and at right angles. While it is possible to develop either of these subjects without regard to either of the others, the ideal of an agri cultural Or scientific education which has regard for a child as a future citizen rather than as a poet, money-maker or scientist must consider the necessity of all three factors. And the educator who is presenting any phase of the subject cannot deal justly with his pupils if he have not an instinctive regard for the previous aspects of his pupils toward the materials with which he is working. Graphic representation of three dimensions - When a product is made from three factors it may be graphically represented by a rectangular solid, the three dimensions of the solid standing for the three factors. In the nature group the common mass of subject matter may be represented by the solid, its three dimensions being the cultural, the economic and the scientific factors. This figure implies the essential relationship of the three subjects, nature study, agriculture and science, namely, that they are aspects at right angles to each other of a common mass of materials, that taking them in a fixed sequence does not relieve the student or teacher from the necessity of carrying all three factors in mind, or such of them as have been previous Objects of study (an Obligation that the teacher especially should regard), and that proficiency in one does not imply any degree of proficiency in the others.

This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teaching of Agriculture in the High School There must be a philosophy of secondary agricultural education. Conscious aims must be set up and their desirability established, and means and methods worked out that shall be effective in securing the realization of these aims. Clearer ideas are needed of the peda gogical principles involved, and the aims in view need to be more clearly defined. In this day of special methods for the teaching of the various school subjects, there should also be one for the teaching of agriculture. So far as our knowledge goes, there is not a book that treats of the methods of teaching this subject in the high school. A consider able amount has been written on the methods of teaching nature study in the elementary school, and the agricultural colleges have their own peculiar methods adaptable to the needs of the college student, but the field embracing school methods in secondary agri culture is still a virgin one.

This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American System of Agricultural Education In 1895 the association appointed a standing committee on methods Of teaching agriculture, which has since presented 13 reports of pro gress. The first report 1 was devoted to recommendations regarding agricultural nomenclature and a review Of agricultural education in European countries; the second report to suggestions regarding the subjects to be included in a four-year course in agriculture; the third, fourth, and fifth reports included outlines for courses in agronomy, zootechny, agrotechny, rural engineering, and rural economics; the Sixth report described methods and facilities for teaching agronomy in the agricultural colleges; the seventh2 showed how secondary courses in agriculture may be incorporated into existing high - school courses; the eighth discussed the relation Of the natural sciences to agriculture in a four-year college course; the ninth3 was devoted to the teaching Of agriculture in the rural common schools; the tenth and eleventh dealt with a secondary course in agrenomy; the twelfth was a preliminary report on a college course in rural engineering; and the thirteenth5 was a secondary course in animal husbandry and dairy ing. These reports have been of great value to the colleges in develop ing their courses in agriculture and reducing them to pedagogic form, and, though it has not been found feasible in any Single institution to adopt all of the recommendations Of the committee, yet many of its suggestions have been acted upon with benefit to the courses of study in agriculture, so that now these courses are coming to be.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Project Method of Teaching This book is devoted mainly to a critical discussion of the project method of teaching. The term project has only recently made its appearance in educational terminology, but the idea back of the project is not new. It is quite probable that skillful teachers have always used the essential features of the project method. A survey of modern teaching methods in engineering, law, medicine, agriculture, as well as in the prescribed subjects of the school curriculum, shows that much effort is being expended to bridge the chasm between school tasks and activities outside the school. In other words, the project idea, as defined by the author, is attempted to some extent in all these fields.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Agricultural Education for Teachers Prejudice, inertia, and misgivings are everywhere gradually yielding place to the new rural education. Country communities are demanding that their schools educate in terms of rural life; normal schools are rapidly instituting and perfecting departments for the training of rural teachers; and the colleges are offering courses in rural leadership, and in the teach ing of agriculture, home economics, and farm manual training. Tens of thousands of teachers have sud denly become conscious of the new demands that are being made on them. Not all may take advantage of the facilities offered by the higher institutions of learning, while many who take brief courses in sum mer sessions feel the need of keeping in constant touch with the new ideas in agricultural education along its fundamental lines of development.

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.

Download or read book The Teaching of Agriculture in the Secondary Schools Classic Reprint written by Leroy Anderson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-12-24 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teaching of Agriculture in the Secondary Schools State. In 1898 Nebraska Opened a similar school at the College of Agriculture with an initial enrollment of three students. The number during 1909-10 was 350. Colorado is the winning state in the way of popular response to the announcement that a school of agriculture would be opened at the College. Such news was spread in August, 1909, and more than 100 appeared upon registration-day, early in October. Before the holidays the enrollment had increased to 200. The University of California Opened her school at Davis in January, 1909, with twenty students, and the present term has an enrollment of seventy-seven. Data are not at hand, nor does space permit, to record the growth of county and district agricultural schools in other states. Suffice it to say that as evidenced by attendance, all such schools have uniformly had reason to believe that the instruction given was meeting a distinct need in the community. Agriculture in the established high schools is of more recent development than in those just described. The growth, however, in the number of schools attempting to teach the subject indicates a belief that the people desire such instruction. In some states the introduction of agri culture has been made possible by legislative aid; in others, by local and voluntary effort. I am glad to say that in no case, so far as I know, has this state aid been accompanied by a mandatory act compelling the teaching of agriculture. In 1908 the New York legislature passed a law for the encouragement of industrial education by providing that any public school above the elementary grades that estab lishes such work shall receive from the state $500 for one teacher so employed and $200 for each additional teacher. Last year fourteen New York high schools were reported as teaching agriculture, and at least fifty more would be teaching the subject if qualified teachers could have been secured.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Agriculture and Life: A Text-Book for Normal Schools and Teachers Reading Circles This book was written for teachers. It was written by one who for years has taught Agriculture and Nature Study to pupils of all grades and ages. Most of the book consists of lectures delivered many times before Farmers' and Teachers' Institutes. The book is intended for Teachers' Reading Circles and Normal Training Classes. This book does not take the place of the text-book, such as Davis's Productive Farming. This book is written by one of a large number Of teachers who believe that we should teach from things largely and teach by having pupils do things worth while at home. This book should be of help on the teacher's desk as a guide for her daily work. Agriculture must at all times be closely correlated with the home activities Of the pupils. School Agriculture aims to teach things that are new, are a little more worth while doing than what is being done; that being true, a book cannot present matter for all time and cover our big, varied country. The best things to do will be changing, and hence a book is hardly Off the press before it is out Of date. A book on teaching Agriculture will be valuable for its suggestions and for the enthusiasm it puts into the teachers to take hold of the work.

In the North Central States the school farms are small, the pupils are drawn from greater distances than those in the New England States, and they have not as good means Of transportation. It is also evident that there are a large number Of boys from towns and cities, and Of girls desiring to become teachers, in the classes study ing agriculture.

In a large sense all study is professional, and in a very large sense, indeed, it is also industrial. Some portion of the training of every indi vidual should be industrial, even manual, and another portion of the training of every individual should be distinctly mental, until habits of thought are formed quite independent of material activity. For these reasons, which are fundamental, I would not separate industry from any of our schools. I would make it an integral part of every curriculum, its proportion and character depending upon the prospective profession of the individual; but above all I would have the essence of all occupations, or at least of as many as possible, represented in the same school.
