Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Notes on Pennsylvania's Public School System: With Suggestions as to Needed Changes Recently a writer representing the Carnegie Pension Foundation cast the following aspersion upon our school system: Pennsylvania has never come into a conception of education from the standpoint of the whole people; as a consequence, its public school system is still in a rudimentary state. Fortunately not all the people of New England are in such dense ignorance of what has been achieved educationally in the State of Pennsylvania. In the National Magazine for August, A. E. Winship, the well-known editor of the National Journal of Education, and who, though living in New England, has risen above the Bostonian View of the universe, calls attention by way of reply to a series of facts which should be better known to many who live in the Keystone State.

This book was released on 2018-02-19 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fifty-Second Annual Catalog of the Pennsylvania State Normal School for the First District West Chester, Pa;, 1923 The four curricula that are offered to students who are preparing to be regular teachers in the public schools have been organized upon the principle that teaching in the elementary schools can be classified into sufficiently definite types to require Specialization. Each curriculum prepares for a specific type of teaching position. The two year's work of the normal school is divided into four semesters. The work of the first semester is the same for all students. A large purpose of the work of the first semester is to acquaint students with the require ments for successful teaching in the different grades so that they -may be able to decide intelligently in what grade or grades they prefer to teach. The course entitled Introduction to Teaching which includes observation and participation in the training school is especially designed to aid students in a wise selection of a curriculum. At the end of the first semester students are asked to select one of the four curricula for the purpose of specializing in a specific field of teaching. The work of each curriculum must be completed in its entirety. Students may be granted the privilege of changing from one curriculum to another only on condition that the prescribed courses of any curriculum so selected must be completed before a certificate of graduation is granted.

This book was released on 2018-10-10 with total page 630 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pennsylvania School Journal, 1873, Vol. 22 Many such children would become shining lights, and an honor to mankind; but leave them in their ignorance, and many of them will fill our jails and work-houses. To keep them there is a far greater expense, and the probabilities are far less that they will ever be Christians, than if you give them an education such as the State now affords them. But the system does not allow us to teach religion in any positive way! No. But it allows and even sanctions us to do a great deal that leads to positive religion. If that were all, we could also say that many Sunday-schools teach religion in no positive way. And yet we feel sure that Sunday-schools can be so conducted that they do teach religion. Shall we entirely abandon the great pet of America, be cause it fails in some hands and in some localities, to answer the end for which it was instituted? The remedy is in another direction. What is true of the Sunday-schools is, in this respect, largely true of the public schools. Place them in proper hands, and you will get good results.

Download or read book A History of Education in Pennsylvania written by James Pyle Wickersham and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 714 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Education in Pennsylvania: Private and Public, Elementary and Higher, From the Time the Swedes Settled on the Delaware to the Present Day Histories of educational systems and of methods of instruction, and statements showing the condition of education in certain countries at particular times, have been written; but no comprehensive work relating in detail the efforts of a people to provide for their own education, is known to exist. Certainly there is no such work in the English language. The omission seems strange. Surely, if the wars of nations, the intrigues of courts, the plots of politicians, conspiracies and rebellions, changes in the manners and customs of society, and the ups and downs of trade, are worthy of record in historic form, some interest should attach to what has been done by a people to lift themselves up by means of teachers and schools from darkness to light. The time may come, though it now seems distant, when the founding of a College or the organization of a system of instruction for a State will be considered an event of as much importance as the making of a speech or the fighting of a battle. It may even be found, when men and things shall be more justly weighed, that the quiet schoolmaster who thinks only of the task to which God seems to have appointed him, will be considered a factor quite as potent in all that tends to make a people great, as the soldier who so dazzles the public eye, or the politician who manages to fill so much space in the periodicals of the day. There is no patriotism more pure, more elevated, or more deserving of recognition than that of one whose highest ambition it is to store the minds of little children with knowledge, and to guide their footsteps in the path of duty, for in this humble task is involved all that is greatest and grandest in a State. The History of Education in Pennsylvania is of more than ordinary interest, as it throws a flood of light on many events that intimately concern the general history of the Commonwealth.

This book was released on 2018-10-11 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on Public Instruction in Pennsylvania A large common school placed under the care of the Seminary, where each teacher can apply his knowledge and acquire experience and tact. The young men by reviews, taking notes, constant practice in oral and written lectures, and by the experience of the model school, must acquire the knowledge, and at the end manifest preparation and fitness to teach by examinations before impartial and qualified judges. The want of appropriate text-books, suited to this peculiar disci pline and science, will call for preparing such as are most essential. But the reliance must be oral and original communication of know ledge and practice. The relations and uses of one study to throw light-on others - the intimate connexion of the parts of the same branch, a just introductory survey at beginning, a review at the close are means of sure results. Whatever is worthy of being taught Should be made the subject of direct instruction in its natural connexion and' assigned place.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from School History of Berks County in Pennsylvania The author of this book compiled "The History of Berks County," and in 1885 caused it to be published in a royal octavo volume of 1200 pages. Immediately afterward, certain teachers of our public schools suggested to him the utility of compiling a history for the use of the schools, in order to enable the children of the county to acquire special knowledge of their own locality, in which they were mostly interested, as well as general knowledge of this entire country and of foreign countries. It was believed that in this way they would be led to read of and investigate matters and things in the surrounding country with which they were now, or would shortly become, more immediately connected, and also to exercise their perceptive faculties in their daily school life, rather than their imagination; from which they could then be led, as inclination or necessity might dictate, into larger divisions of territory and into more comprehensive knowledge, after their faculties had become sufficiently matured to be interested in them, and more especially to understand them; and it was further believed that knowledge of this kind, thus acquired, would develop a tendency to acquire general historical knowledge.
