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 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.

This book was released on 2018-03-26 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Secondary Education in Agriculture in the United States The county agricultural schools were first established in Wisconsin in 1902. These schools have been equipped at the expense of the counties where they are located, but the State aids each school to the extent of a year, to be applied to the running expenses. The course of study in each school extends over two years and is of quite a practical character, including agriculture, wood working, iron work ing, and domestic science, besides local United States history, civil government, and commercial arithmetic. County agricultural schools are also found in Maryland, Michigan, and Mississippi. The statistics for the normal schools have already been given, show ing that over 100 normal schools in the country are giving instruction in agriculture. This instruction is quite different in character in different schools. In some cases there is a regular course by a special instructor who is a graduate of an agricultural college. In other cases the teaching of agriculture has been taken up by the science teacher. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

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.

This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Eleventh Yearbook of the National Society for the Study of Education: Agricultural Education in Secondary Schools Some idea of the present demand for instructors qualified to teach agriculture in secondary schools may be derived from the fact that in the United States at present there are over a hundred special agricul tural schools located in 17 different states supported in whole or in part by the states, and that agriculture was taught in 1910, as a separate subject in more or less complete courses, to over pupils in public and 140 private high schools, according to the reports submitted by these schools to the Bureau of Education. It is true that much of the instruction given in these schools is very elementary and is of an informational rather than a practical character. It is true also that the courses given are very brief in the majority of cases. On the other hand there are fully as many high schools giving four-year courses as there are special agricultural schools and the courses given by them are as vocational in their character as the courses given by the majority of the special schools. California, for instance, has 12 high schools with agricultural departments in charge Of special agricultural teachers. All of these schools are supplied with land for instructional purposes vary ing from 3 to 27 acres in extent; all have available laboratories and several have greenhouses. Michigan has 11 high schools with four-year courses in agriculture, each taught by a graduate of the Michigan Agri cultural College. Massachusetts, New York, Nebraska, Iowa, Ohio, Minnesota, Tennessee, and Vermont each has several such schools. One or more may be found In almost every state in the Union.

This book was released on 2019-02-03 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Country Life Education Success had hardly been attained in collegiate courses in agriculture when secondary schools for agricultural education began successfully to develop. In 1888 the University of Minnesota began an experiment at developing an agricultural high-school course. This experiment is of none the less value anal of all the greater interest because it was an outgrowth of the failure of agricultural courses of collegiate grade to gain a foothold in a State university. Just as Congress by its landgrant act forced colleges of agriculture upon the State, this agricultural high-school movement was injected into the school system upon the initiative of farmers and business men. At present between thirty and forty agricultural high schools have been established in the United States. In one line of country-lit'e education school men and nonschool men have together taken up the practical in school work. Farmers and educators together have entered upon the development of rural schools so as to have them cover agriculture and home economics as well as the Three R's. Thus the school people are especially championing the consolidation of rural schools, and the farmers are laying stress upon the introduction of agriculture into all rural schools. Both classes are rap idly coming to favor both propositions. The farmers are coming to see that agriculture can not be successfully introduced into the one-room rural schools, and the teachers are coming to see that agriculture and home economies are to have very strong positions in the primary country school curriculum alongside the Three R's.

Download or read book High School Agriculture Classic Reprint written by D. D. Mayne and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-06 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from High School Agriculture The order of the main topics as given in the text is logical. But it may be varied to suit special conditions. A very ele mentary agricultural chemistry is given first, because the names of the elements directly concerned in plant life, and somewhat of a familiarity with them, serve as a basis for all agricultural teaching. It also renders possible the use for reference of a larger number of more advanced textbooks and articles by sci entists than would otherwise be available. Familiarity with the elements and with selected compounds is the purpose rather than adherence to applications that are directly related to agri culture. If chemical laboratories are accessible for use, some of the experiments given and others to be dictated by the teacher may well be performed by the student, but excellent results for the purpose here intended may be secured if the experiments are performed by the teacher before the class.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Effective Farming: A Text-Book for American Schools To meet the new demands, many texts are appearing. The present book is one of the contributions to this rapidly enlarging field, drawn from several years' experience as a teacher of agriculture in both high school and college. It aims to present instruction in practical agriculture in such a way as to be read ily understood by both pupil and general reader, and to be directly adaptable, at the same time, to the needs of the class room and laboratory. Agriculture is a subject of great variety. One person cannot cover it all. As indicated in certain parts of the text, some of the matter has been compiled from publications of the United States Department of Agriculture and the state experiment stations. This form of compilation suggests the kind of valuable information that can be gleaned from these publications.
