Classes were opened October, 1920, in Springfield and Holyoke, Mass. The instruction is given by members of the faculty. The Executive Board consists of thirteen members, nine of whom are members of trade unions, and four represent the college. The funds are raised from a fee of two dollars charged each student per course. But the actual financial support comes from the college and from a grant by the Commonwealth Fund of New York. The courses given during the past year were: Current Economic Problems, and Trade Union Problems. The total enrollment was forty-five. One class met in a Public School, one in a trade union hall. Workers' University, Cleveland, Ohio. The first season of educational activity for the International Garment Workers of Cleveland began November 1, 1920. The Board of Education paid four instructors: English, Gymnasium, Pianist, and instructor in History of the Labor Movement. The Garment Workers exercised complete jurisdiction over the planning of courses and the selection of teachers. Classes were conducted at the Headquarters of the Union although public school buildings were available. A large auditorium in an adjoining club house served for gymnasium practice, motion pictures, lectures and large meetings. Recognizing the psychological value of the short term in stimulating interest, courses were planned on the basis of six weeks to a term. At the end of this period, all the courses originally planned were continued on request. The subjects offered were: English, History of the American Labor Movement, Economics, History of...

Book excerpt: Uncovers the labor exploitation occurring in universities across the country As much as we think we know about the modern university, very little has been said about what it's like to work there. Instead of the high-wage, high-profit world of knowledge work, most campus employees—including the vast majority of faculty—really work in the low-wage, low-profit sphere of the service economy. Tenure-track positions are at an all-time low, with adjuncts and graduate students teaching the majority of courses. This super-exploited corps of disposable workers commonly earn fewer than $16,000 annually, without benefits, teaching as many as eight classes per year. Even undergraduates are being exploited as a low-cost, disposable workforce. Marc Bousquet, a major figure in the academic labor movement, exposes the seamy underbelly of higher education—a world where faculty, graduate students, and undergraduates work long hours for fast-food wages. Assessing the costs of higher education's corporatization on faculty and students at every level, How the University Works is urgent reading for anyone interested in the fate of the university.

This book was released on 2001-10-20 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American high schools have never been under more pressure to reform: student populations are more diverse than ever, resources are limited, and teachers are expected to teach to high standards for all students. While many reformers look for change at the state or district level, the authors here argue that the most local contexts—schools, departments, and communities—matter the most to how well teachers perform in the classroom and how satisfied they are professionally. Their findings—based on one of the most extensive research projects ever done on secondary teaching—show that departmental cultures play a crucial role in classroom settings and expectations. In the same school, for example, social studies teachers described their students as "apathetic and unwilling to work," while English teachers described the same students as "bright, interesting, and energetic." With wide-ranging implications for educational practice and policy, this unprecedented look into teacher communities is essential reading for educators, administrators, and all those concerned with U. S. High Schools.

HODGEN LONDON KEGAN PAUL, TRENCH, TRUBNER CO, LTD. NEW YORK E. P. DUTTON CO. 1925 God said I am tired of fangs, I suffer them no more, Up to my ear the morning brings The outrage of the poor, I will have never a noble, No lineage counted great, Fishers, choppers and ploughmen Shall constitute a state PREFACE IT is now five years since the first paragraphs of this book were written. The task seemed an easy one then. Labour Colleges were new and few. Their objectives were well defined, their future clearly indicated in glow ing editorials. The best part of it all to a modern in a hurry to examine, describe and pass on to something else, was the fact that Workers Education seemed to have burst fully grown upon a waiting world, uncom plicated by a bothersome period of youth and delight fully free of educational antecedents, difficult to trace and to value. It was not until an effort was made to press the study beyond contemporary manifestations of working-class demand for education that real obstacles were encountered. Of course, it is hardly fitting for a research worker to complain of poverty of material. His job is to find it anyhow. Hoping, however, that a word to those who have lived and worked in the labour movement may be sufficient, the author would like to mourn the absence of working-class biography. By whom could richer and more significant human records have been kept What lives have been more dramatic than those of the men who have led and followed the fortunes of trade unionism But cave-men who carved their annals in solid rock have told us more about themselves than generations of silent workers. Labour and labour leaders have a certain biographical responsibility to the future. The English have begun to realize it. Perhaps Americans will soon. In the absence of such documentary evidence as only the workers themselves could have supplied, recourse viii PREFACE has been taken to other sources where the difficulty of separating fact from conjecture has been great. This serious embarrassment to accurate interpretation of labours educational development has been increased by the fact that with every crystallization of the labour movement in the nineteenth century, the educational need perceived by those actually involved has altered. In the beginning the ability to read and write seemed to the poor to be sufficient. To-day, a mental grasp of complex economic and political principles must be com bined with the ability to meet and deal with the keenest minds in government and industry. The following pages will endeavour to show that with every change on the economic or political horizon, the educational motives and methods of the working class have changed. The only constant among many variables has been working-class demand for know ledge and a certain tendency on its part, first, to trust education only when administered by itself, second, to frame the content of education toward ultimate working class control of government and industry. In order to obtain an idea of the two competing forces in society operating on the one hand to exclude the workers from education, and on the other, to give them access to all the treasures of learning, an effort has been made to compare the educational motives of different classes. The discussion will accordingly follow two threads, the first of which will be a simple enumeration in chronological sequence of the educa tional enterprises founded for or by adult working men the second, an interpretation of the motives animating founders. For the purpose of visualizing the problem, the history and interpretation of Workers Education may be regarded, at least in England, as a pyramid of three time levels...
