Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of Rural Schools in Travis County, Texas The purpose of this investigation is to make an accurate and scientific estimate of the status of public education in about two hundred square miles of the southeastern part of Travis County. By making a close survey of this area and reporting it to the public in the following pages, it is hoped that other communities similarly situated will be assisted in finding where they stand educationally. This report is intended to serve as a simple, direct sort of guide whereby a rural community may conduct a self-examination into its school affairs, determining its points of greatest strength and revealing its sources of greatest weakness. It is a method of attack by examination and diagnosis before the issuance of a prescription or other remedial measure. This study has been presented as one chapter of a thesis offered in part fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the University of Texas, and its publication in this form ahead of the completion of the thesis has been allowed.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of Rural Schools in Texas: October 10, 1914 The education of all the children of all the people is now gener ally conceded to be one of the most important functions of the state. A perfect democracy would provide for the education of every citizen. It does not follow, however, that all citizens must have the same kind of education; but each person should receive that training which will contribute most to his own happiness and which will make him a useful factor in human society.

This book was released on 2018-02-09 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of Rural Schools in Karnes County During the school year of 1921-22 the Bureau. Of Ex tension of the University conducted rural school surveys in Wichita, Karnes, and Williamson counties. During the school year of 1922-23 it is the purpose of the Bureau of Extension to conduct similar research investigations in other Texas counties. In this series of surveys will be found a county with millions of oil wealth in it; a county from the timber lands of East Texas; one from the Blackland Belt with its educational and sociological com plications arising from high-priced land, the one crop sys tem, farm tenants and absentee landlords; one from the Western Cross Timbers where loss of rural population has brought about a large amount of social stagnation one from middle west Texas with its thrifty, homogeneous. Home owning English-speaking population; one from the high plains where there is much room fer expansion and where there is a wholesome breadth of vision on the part of most of the people; and one from South-west Texas with its cos mopolitan population of Mexicans and other non-english speaking whites. Thus the rural educational conditions obtaining throughout the state will be covered in a fairly representative way. The object of these studies it twofold: (1) To enable counties in which they are conducted to see where they stand educationally, and to assist them in the work of educa tional self-improvement; (2) To obtain a fund of definite, reliable, comprehensive information on the rural-life situa tion in Texas to be placed at the disposal of students and teachers of education. It is hoped that these studies may make some contribution to the content of the courses in rural education now being offered in the normal colleges and the other colleges of Texas.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study in School Supervision With Special Reference to Rural School Conditions in Texas The principle of the division of labor in human society has a deep significance; it is a law of nature and finds its parallel in organic structure. For example, manv vertebrate animals use all their limbs for progression over the surface of the earth; some have their forefeet modified for digging in the ground or for climbing in trees. Birds have them modified for ight, and thereby sweep the skies. Fish use them for propulsion through the depths of the sea. And Man, standing erect, has his hands freed for labor immortal.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rural School, 1922: Survey, of New York State Educational Achievement It is one thing to provide in a school curriculum the necessary means for training children along the lines which society desires. Experience shows that schools often, while making all the necessary formal provisions for such training, fail to achieve the type of finished product desired and intended. It was the function of the Division of Tests and Measurements in the New York survey to make definite inquiry regarding this finished product of the rural schools of the state. It faced not so much the problem of what the schools should teach, as the problem of how well do the schools teach the things which all admit are included in its legitimate teach ing program. /how well do the pupils in these schools learn the things which by common agreement they should learn?

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rural School in the United States Another illustration of our uniform quantitative attitude is to be found in the development of our common school course of study from the three R's. That it has been a case of quan titative rather than qualitative enrichment goes without say ing This line of enrichment has run through the interest ing fields of history, geography, algebra, physiology with all of its hygiene and temperance addenda, drawing, object lessons, vocal music, nature study, literature, language work and ele mentary science. Now the loudest cry is rising from every educational assembly for deliverance from the tyranny of this whole quantitative procedure. We have not abandoned our idea] of enrichment, but we can procure real enrichment only through the elimination of all that is unnecessary or antiquated in our present course of study.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Teaching in Rural Schools The United States Census Bureau classifies as living under rural conditions all persons living in the Open country and in towns and villages having less that 2500 inhabitants. On this basis, according to the census of 1910, per cent Of the population of the United States was classed as rural, and the figures probably have not changed materially since that date. In the last printed report of the United States Commissioner of Education it was stated that, during the preceding year, per cent of the children enrolled in the public schools of the United States were enrolled in schools classified by the Census Bureau as rural, while of the teachers employed, 60 per cent were employed in these rural communities. Approximately eighteen million children were enrolled in these same schools, and about 95 per cent of these were in the elementary grades.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rural Life and Education: A Study of the Rural-School Problem as a Phase of the Rural-Life Problem To one who has given little or no attention to the subject, it is hard to appreciate the geat revolution in rural life which has taken place during the past th?e'e' quarters of a century. The changes which have been accomplished have been of far-reaching importance, and they have touched every phase of rural life. Almost nothing is now as it used to be; almost nothing is done now as it was three quarters of a century ago. We of to-day live in a new world a world of which our grandfathers scarcely dreamed. Life everywhere to-day is far more complex, intricate, diflicult, and fruitful of both pleasure and profit than was that of which our grandfathers formed a part. The great changes which have taken place in living and industry have affected all of our people, rural and urban, but perhaps nowhere has the revolution in living and industry been of more far-reaching importance than to those of our people who live on the farms and in the little villages of our nation.

This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Successful Teaching in Rural Schools IF our American public school system is to provide adequately for the education of all boys and girls, the rural schools of the United States must be improved. It is important in the consideration of this problem that we discuss methods of finance and of administration. It is even more important that well-trained teachers be placed in every classroom, and that those already at work in rural schools grow increasingly more efficient. In this volume the author has presented to rural school teachers a record of achievement by a group of rural school-teachers which is not only enlightening but in spiring. The book could not have been written by one who approached the problem as a theorist. It is out of a rich experience in achieving the ideals set forth, that Dr. Pittman has written to the rural school-teachers of the United States.
