Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Status of County Teachers Institutes in Pennsylvania The present study is an attempt to determine the efficiency of County Teachers' Institutes in Pennsylvania. That there is a need for determining whether or not the county institute is functioning or whether it is contributing materially to the actual improvement and present needs of the teaching profession in Pennsylvania, can be readily ascertained by an examination of the literature bearing on Institutes, not only in Pennsylvania but thruout the United States. It is beyond the purpose of this investigation to review this literature or to quote from it to any greater extent than will shed light on our problem. Two outstanding studies on "Teachers Institutes" are those by Smart in 1885, and by Ruediger in 1911. These are both national in scope. The former is a valuable collection of data and judgment that constitute a veritable brief for the institute. The latter study considers the institute as an agency in the improvement of teachers in service. It was in this study that the further value of institutes was begun to be questioned, tho even in Smart's "Circular of Information" we see striking evidences of warning and doubt. Commissioner of Education Eaton in submitting Smart's comprehensive survey used this significant sentence: The aims, purposes, and methods of conducting these institutes in the several states are exceedingly diverse. It is evident that the institutes as a whole have been a means of great good and have probably been worth all they have cost; but it is also clear that, from lack of thorough organization and professional management, they have produced only a part of the good results possible. The facts presented in this report show that institutes may not only be valueless practically, but a positive source of mischief to the teachers and to the schools. A quotation from Ruediger's study shows further evidence of doubt as to the efficacy of the institutes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from School History of Berks County in Pennsylvania The author of this book compiled "The History of Berks County," and in 1885 caused it to be published in a royal octavo volume of 1200 pages. Immediately afterward, certain teachers of our public schools suggested to him the utility of compiling a history for the use of the schools, in order to enable the children of the county to acquire special knowledge of their own locality, in which they were mostly interested, as well as general knowledge of this entire country and of foreign countries. It was believed that in this way they would be led to read of and investigate matters and things in the surrounding country with which they were now, or would shortly become, more immediately connected, and also to exercise their perceptive faculties in their daily school life, rather than their imagination; from which they could then be led, as inclination or necessity might dictate, into larger divisions of territory and into more comprehensive knowledge, after their faculties had become sufficiently matured to be interested in them, and more especially to understand them; and it was further believed that knowledge of this kind, thus acquired, would develop a tendency to acquire general historical knowledge.

A distinct and prevailing system was not, indeed, in operation; yet in no state were the young better, nor more generally instructed, than in our Commonwealth. In proof of this, the following exposition is presented; ex hibiting the statutory provisions, and the liberal appropria tions made by the legislature of Pennsylvania, in furtherance of education, both elementary and academic.
