Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teacher and Old Age The calling of the public-school teacher is not yet, in America, a profession. But everywhere the earnest friends of education are striving to transform teaching from a temporary and often casual employment into a vocation exhibiting something of the systematic preparation, the stability, the progressiveness, and the dignity of a profession. Some of the means that have been found helpful in improving the professional status of the teacher are: professional training, both before and during service; state certification; more permanent tenure; skilled supervision; promotion to higher rank or salary on the basis of merit; and more attractive financial compensation for work done.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teacher's Old Chair, And, the Squirrel When I had taken needed food, to make me plump and round and neat, The Lady in the moon looked down and said to me in accent sweet; You have a mission, little man; you should not live for idle show, Because you are no butterfly, and to your work should wisely go. Frost one night was handed down, which touched what you might call my pen; And being ripe, as people say, it nipped the feeble little stem That held me to the generous branch, and fed me all the summer through. But when the sun had found the frost, I broke away and bade adieu. And arrow-like I shot to earth, and I was never found alone, Because all things had been prepared for comfort, in my rustic home.

Download or read book The Status of the Teacher Classic Reprint written by Arthur C. Perry and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Status of the Teacher The status of the teacher - the relation of the teacher to the community, to the school, to the pupils, to the parents of the pupils - this is the subject of frequent, and sometimes serious, misconception on the part of all concerned. This misconception is based upon a corresponding lack of understanding of the school itself. A very few instances serve to illustrate the varying phases of the misunderstanding. It is illustrated by the citizen who rebels against the payment of his school-tax. It is illustrated by the parent who says to the teacher: "I pay taxes; you are my employee; you must promote my child because I tell you to." It is illustrated by the teacher who reports to the parent with an air of personal injury: "Your boy annoys me very much in the classroom." It is illustrated by the principal who permits an unlicensed person to substitute in a class, provided he is willing to "take the chance" that he will get his pay. The following pages attempt to explain each relation of the teacher in its true light. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teacher's Institute: Or Familiar Hints to Young Teachers Since the revival of education in Massachusetts, and, I may justly say, in the United States, in consequence of the establishment of our Board of Education, several valuable treatises on the important subject of Public Instruction have been published, and each in its way has done good service to the great cause; but still, it seems to me, there is room for the little volume which, perhaps, with more zeal than discretion, I am about to "cast upon the waters." When I was invited by the Secretary of the Board of Education to take part in the instruction to be given at the Teachers' Institutes, which he proposed to hold in different parts of the State, I was not aware that my notions of the matter and manner of teaching were so different from those which prevailed. When, however, at the Institutes, some of the lessons which I had given at least a quarter of a century ago were viewed as novelties, and listened to with attention as unexpected as it was gratifying, I readily yielded to the repeated suggestion that it might aid the cause of education to publish such of my hints as could be written out, however inferior they must necessarily be to the living lessons that I had given in person. Those lessons were all given without any book, and usually without any notes; but this volume contains, I believe, a faithful sketch of them, with three of the many lectures that I delivered, and such additional remarks as occurred to me while the work was in progress. It makes no claim to be a complete treatise on education, for I had neither time nor inclination to attempt so high a task. It is no compilation, however, but a familiar record of my own experience, written in the midst of business, and with the printer at my heels, - two disadvantages which those only can fully appreciate who have been so incautious as to try a similar experiment. Teachers' Institutes are assemblies of teachers, convened for the purpose of receiving and imparting instruction in regard to the art of teaching. They are, in fact, temporary Normal Schools, although, of course, conducted with less system and less preparation. The duty of calling them devolved upon the Secretary of the Board of Education, and he was present several days at each of the ten that were held in the autumns of 1845 and 1846, of which duty an interesting report is given in his Ninth Annual Report to the Board. The exercises consisted mainly of lessons given by some experienced teacher; of mutual instruction by the members of the Institute; of free discussions, in which the citizens, especially school-committee-men, often took part; and of lectures by gentlemen who had paid attention to the progress of public education in the State.

Download or read book Talks with Teachers Classic Reprint written by A. D. Mayo and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Talks With Teachers I call this book "Talks With Teachers," because I am indebted to the many superior teachers who have honored me by their confidence and affection for almost everything I value in it. What is herein written is an honest attempt to photograph the flying impressions of the visits of many years to many varieties of schools. It may be that some things of daily occurrence in the school-room will impress the teacher with a new meaning, when reflected back from the mind of an observant and sympathetic layman. Perhaps a long service, as a labor of love, in that half-way house of American education, the office of "school committee man," may excuse an attempt to awake the soul of our young teachers and open their eyes, at once, to the hidden realm of child - land and the great visible world of American out-door life. If I can bring the teacher, the children, the parents, and the people to know each other better and "work together for good," I will not be sorry I have written this book.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teacher's Rabelais The History of Education is coming to its own as people perceive more and more clearly how strong a stimulus the story of former efforts, the dream of earlier aspirants, can afford. Probably, as the subject is more thoroughly studied, one fact will emerge - not peculiar to it indeed, but belonging to every field of human endeavour, - the fact that there is nothing new under the sun.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mountain School-Teacher There had once been a path along the backbone of the mountain, but the wilderness had undertaken to remove it, and had almost succeeded. The wind had gathered bits of moss, twigs and dead stuff into the slight depression. The great hickories had covered it with leaves. The rain had packed it. There was no longer a path, only an open way between the trees running down the gentle slope of the ridge to the mountain road.

They looked as if they were overlaid with one seamless ccv ering of pure gold, as it were transparent glass. The people were passing back and forth, and were all clothed in raiment of spotless white. The light was different from any thing I had ever seen. There was something in it indescribably pure and soft, and yet something so searching, that it seemed as if it must reveal the most se cret recesses of the place, and bring to view all the hidden things of darkness. The very thought of exposing myself to its penetrating power made me shrink back; and just at that moment some one, who seemed to have charge of the entrance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Spiritual Teacher Looking down from the serene heights of their sublime abode, the sp1r1ts of the Sixth Circle desire to present to the inhabitants of the earth a revealment of truths and principles which are adapted to the present state of human development. They desire to speak to the world in the tones of kindness, and to express the thoughts which they have gathered in their researches into the mysteries of the Universe. The object of the present Lecture, which will be exceedingly brief, is to unfold an analysis of the designs which spirits have in view in their intercourse with the children of men. It should be understood that these de signs do not comprehend the selfish gratification of any desire on their part, which has not a connection with the interest and welfare of those whom they address. The spirits have no low ambition to gratify in the presentation of heavenly truths they have no selfish motives by which it is possible for them to be governed in the labor of human enlightenment, and they have no power to stoop from the height of their sublime W1sdom, to administer to the sen sual passions and tendencies of the people. Therefore they will speak of the realities which need to be revealed, for a purpose which is high and holy as their Own blissful state.
