Book excerpt: Wage Earning and Education by Rufus Rolla Lutz The education survey of Cleveland was undertaken in April, 1915, at the invitation of the Cleveland Board of Education and the Survey Committee of the Cleveland Foundation, and continued until June, 1916. As a part of the work detailed studies were made of the leading industries of the city for the purpose of determining what measures should be taken by the public school system to prepare young people for wage-earning occupations and to provide supplementary trade instruction for those already in employment. The studies also dealt with all forms of vocational education conducted at that time under public school auspices. Types of Occupations Studied Separate studies were made of the metal industry, building and construction, printing and publishing, railroad and street transportation, clothing manufacture, department store work, and clerical occupations. The wage-earners in these fields of employment constitute nearly 60 per cent of the total number of persons engaged in gainful occupations and include 95 per cent of the skilled workmen in the city. The survey also gave considerable attention to the various types of semi-skilled work found in the principal industries.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Young Wage-Earner: And the Problem of His Education, Essays and Reports At the Summer Meeting held during August 1917 in Bangor, the problem of Continued Education proved of great interest; it was therefore decided to pursue the inquiry after the Meeting closed. The Committee put together a statement (see p. 10 below) which was issued in January 1918, and it was then decided to extend the study to a further stage by preparing a number of essays and reports. These are now collected and submitted for the use both of teachers and of the wider public interested in educational reform. The reader will bear in mind that the treatment is not intended to be comprehensive or exhaustive, but is designed to support a distinctive point of view as regards the part-time education of adolescents.

This book was released on 2015-07-26 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Teacher's Salaries and Salary Schedules in the United States, 1918-19, Vol. 6: Prepared for the Commission on the Emergency in Education of the National Education Association The Commission on the Emergency in Education of the National Education Association has, from the beginning of its work, recognized the necessity of informing the public with respect to teacher's salaries. In order to supplement the work which had already been done by the Committee on Teachers' Salaries, Tenure, and Pensions, the Commission sent out during February of 1919 a questionnaire to superintendents of schools thruout the country. The data thus collected were turned over to Dr. E. S. Evenden of Teachers College, Columbia University, who, under the direction of the Chairman of the Commission and of Professor N. L. Engelhardt, prepared the report which is submitted herewith. The National Education Association and the teachers of the country are indebted to superintendents who cooperated with the Commission in furnishing the data, to a group of graduate students in Teachers College, Columbia University, who contributed valuable assistance in the tabulation of replies, without cost to the association, but most of all to Dr. Evenden, who gave a large part of his time over a period of eight months in the preparation of this report. Superintendents of schools, teachers, and school board members will find in the study a most careful analysis of the salary problem, together with proposals for salary schedules. It is only as the recommendations made are carried out by local boards of education that we may hope to provide well trained teachers for all American boys and girls.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Education in Economy Does it not seem strange that the house wife, in whose care the earnings or income has been placed, knows so little about the meaning of economy? Although she will deny and inconvenience herself by doing without many things which appeal to her personally, in order that it might be possible to have the things which the bread winner and family enjoy. This theory of economy is practiced in the home of the banker, the bookkeeper on a per month salary, the clerk in some department store, and so on down to the poor fellow that earns his wage by manual labor. The smaller the wage the greater the sacrifice on the part of the manager of the home. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Teaching Home Economics Before the war these studies were recognized by some as an essential part of the general education of every girl. With the declaration of peace, they assume a new significance and appear as an indispensable part of her education. This is true because every girl needs instruction regarding better and more healthful living, and training in those practices which will enable her to live her daily life more intelligently, to rear her children more thoughtfully, and to serve her community and country more efficiently. These studies are needed by some because they prepare also for certain definite wage-earning vocations. This book draws the distinction between home economics studies as organized for general or liberal education purposes and such lines of specialized vocational training as may have grown out of them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Junior Wage Earners: Prepared Especially for Ire Information and Use of Business Men, Normal Schools, Teachers' Colleges, Public School Teachers, and Employees of the United States Employment Service The purpose of this book is definite - to respond to an increasing demand for verified data on the status of vocational guidance and to indicate the aim, policy, and methods of the national organization which has been instituted to guide and assist local agencies in this phase of community service. The Junior Division of the United States Employment Service is a new governmental agency. It was instituted to aid in one of the most serious problems of reconstruction - the replacement in school or in industry of its young war workers. The call came suddenly. The country faced facts, not theories. There were probably less than a dozen persons in the United States who had given serious, concerted study to the junior problem - it had been an avocation for many, a vocation for few. From its very inception the Division has been called upon to furnish printed material indicating the status and the field of vocational guidance, the relation of placement to guidance, of educational guidance to vocational guidance, and of employment supervision to both counseling and education. There has been a constant demand that the aim of the Division be definitely defined and that methods by which its aim might be realized be suggested. Lack of printed matter has been a handicap to the development of the service, and the Division itself, after ascertaining that outside parties could not be secured for the task, has undertaken to supply this need.

Download or read book Democracy and Education written by John Dewey and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 1916 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: . Renewal of Life by Transmission. The most notable distinction between living and inanimate things is that the former maintain themselves by renewal. A stone when struck resists. If its resistance is greater than the force of the blow struck, it remains outwardly unchanged. Otherwise, it is shattered into smaller bits. Never does the stone attempt to react in such a way that it may maintain itself against the blow, much less so as to render the blow a contributing factor to its own continued action. While the living thing may easily be crushed by superior force, it none the less tries to turn the energies which act upon it into means of its own further existence. If it cannot do so, it does not just split into smaller pieces (at least in the higher forms of life), but loses its identity as a living thing. As long as it endures, it struggles to use surrounding energies in its own behalf. It uses light, air, moisture, and the material of soil. To say that it uses them is to say that it turns them into means of its own conservation. As long as it is growing, the energy it expends in thus turning the environment to account is more than compensated for by the return it gets: it grows. Understanding the word "control" in this sense, it may be said that a living being is one that subjugates and controls for its own continued activity the energies that would otherwise use it up. Life is a self-renewing process through action upon the environment.

Download or read book Facts on the Cost of Public Education and What They Mean Classic Reprint written by National Education Association Division and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Facts on the Cost of Public Education and What They Mean The Research Department was added to the headquarters organization in response to a general demand from the members of the Association for an agency to supply current educational information. No source existed for supplying data for use in emergency situations. The U. S. Bureau of Education, the Government's agency for supplying statistical information on education, has not been able to publish current data to meet emergency demands. Its staff includes the Commissioner and specialists of recognized ability, but although much good work has been done, funds have not been provided for extensive investigations by these experts. Moreover, the printing fund is so meager that comparatively few of the important reports can be published. Many of them lose their current value in the long delay before publication. This neglect of education on the part of the Government is most regrettable. It results from having the Bureau hidden away in the Department of the Interior. The Secretary of this Department having no special connection with education, and having many other bureaus and divisions in which he is interested, can hardly give more than passing attention to the needs of the Bureau of Education. Because of this situation, it seemed desirable for the National Education Association to establish a Research Department of its own. All feel that no wiser use of membership dues can be made than in maintaining an agency to carry on emergency research work. The Research Department was established in March, and has been in operation only a third of a year. During that time it has been carefully organized and is ready to render service to the members of the Association. This, the first bulletin of the Department, contains information of distinctive value. During the coming year smaller bulletins will be issued containing the latest information on current educational problems. The new Department seeks the support of the school people of the country in carrying on and in encouraging investigations of current educational problems. It works in close cooperation with other educational research agencies. At present there is much duplication of effort in collecting current educational information. At the same time essential data is often not available because of the lack of coordinated effort in carrying on investigations. The Research Department aims to reduce this duplication of effort and to bring about a concerted attack of some of our pressing educational problems. As it works to these ends it looks to the members of the Association for guidance and support. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Normal School Crisis Classic Reprint written by Orson Leroy Manchester and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-12-27 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Normal School Crisis The state recognizing the value of the service of such an institu tion established four other normal schools, and it was believed that hav ing established them it had committed itself to their support. There has been no change whatever in the appreciation of the central place teacher training schools occupy in a common school system. There has been no change in the appreciation of the far-reaching effect they are having upon the standards of scholarship and education throughout the state. But for reasons rather difficult to discover, the state has not supported these institutions in such a way as to make them most serviceable to the commonwealth. To be sure, little complaint can be offered on the side of their physical equipment. Our five normal schools have, in the main, good buildings and good equipment. The lack of support has touched the spiritual side of these institutions. For many years it was considered such an honor to teach in the normal schools that men and women of the highest training accepted places in the faculty without much consideration of the question of salary. They were men and women devoted so thoroughly to their pro fession that little thought was given to its economic side. Gradually it began to appear that these institutions were falling a Victim to the very excellence of their work. They were training men and women to go out into the schools and teach with such rare excellence as to command something like a just and fair economic reward. Soon the very graduates of these normal schools, as high school principals and city superintendents, were receiving salaries in excess of the teach ers in the institutions from which they graduated. Moreover the re wards in industrial lines were becoming greater and the cost of main taining one's self as a teacher in a normal school was mounting higher and higher each year. At last educational leaders of the state awoke to the fact that the normal schools were no longer attracting to their faculties the best men and women of the state and nation, and that their in uence for good was being curtailed. Every attempt to seek out the cause and remove it led to the conclusion that the teachers in these normal schools were being underpaid - underpaid when com pared with the services they render, underpaid when compared withthe salaries paid to their graduates, underpaid when compared with the appreciating costs of everything they had to buy.
