Helps by an English Gentleman--British and Foreign Bible Society--Testimonial of Foreigners to "My German Schools and Schoolmasters"--"Old England for ever!"--" God Save the Queen!" The late Henry Baynes Ward, of Debourne Lodge, West Cowes, Esq., and afterwards of Brockhampton, Havant, had lived in Germany, and had continued German readings after his return to England. We were moving in different circles; and though not entirely unknown to each other, had never exchanged other tokens of recognition than the passing salutations of neighbourly decency. Mr. Ward was an attached member of the Episcopal Church of England, as by law established; and third son of the founder of North wood House. That gentleman, one day, observing a number of the Emigrants from the ship "France" following me in the streets, inquired the reason of their doing so. On being informed, he most kindly offered help in any way in his power; inviting me to his house for conference; and thus laying the foundation of a friendship. Of course, Mr. W. saw the original of the testimonial from the people whom we, in common with every class of our neighbours, had been endeavouring to serve. He instantly said, "Why don't you translate and publish this? You ought!--it is not yours only!" I replied, that a copy must be sent to the Committee of the Bible Society in London; but I must not be the translator, --adding, however, that on account of the verses at the end, whoever might interpret it, should have some idea of metrical imitation. At that time I did not know that Mr. W. had ever translated a verse in his life. "Let me have it! Leave it with me!" said my new but most kind and earnest helper, --whose man-servant brought, I think that very evening, "The Translation, with...

Book excerpt: GERMAN SCHOOLS THE HISTORY, ORGANIZATION AND METHODS of SECONDARY EDUCATION IN GERMANY BY JAMBS E. RUSSELL, PREFACE No apology is necessary, I assume, in presenting to the reading public a book on the secondary schools of Germany. For many years American educators have drawn professional inspiration from German sources, and more recently it has become apparent that German ideas are taking root in British soil. The history, organization and methods of the German elementary schools are generally well understood. We have grown familiar with the German universities and have prof ited not a little from the relationship. But very little has been written in English on the secondary education which is the foundation of the German xtniversity training and the basis of all professional service in the Fatherland. Yet it is precisely in this sphere that German education can be studied to boat advantage, and from it wo have most to learn. The Regents of the University of the State of New York, at Convocation in July, 1893, appointed me their European Commissioner, and shortly afterwards I was made Special Agent of the Bureau of Education of the United States for the study and investigation of German schools. These keys unlocked all doors. During the two years which I spent in Germany I visited more than forty towns and cities in order personally to acquaint myself with school affairs. By force of circumstances my attention was directed chiefly to the schools of central and northern Germany. It happens, there fore, that this study is concerned principally with the schools vi PEEFAOB of Prussia. But as Prussia is the larger part of the Empire both in area and population, and by far the most importantstate politically in the Confederation, it is doing no great in justice to consider German schools from the Prussian stand point. A foreign institution, however simple it appears to the casual observer, presents a wonderful complexity to the stu dent. And the longer ho studies the moro complex it grows. After a six months residence abroad I was more confident of my ability to interpret the German school system thnn I urn now, at the end of almost five years continuous study and investigation. No one of my readers, I am sure, oun bo moro dissatisfied than I am myself with this attempt to portray Gorman ideals and German methods. The subject is too im portant to be lightly treated and too extensive to bo under stood on short acquaintance. I trust, however, that my work may lighten the labours of other students iu this field and prove to be of some practical worth to educators. Sermonizing on the basis of foreign customs is always of doubtful expediency. It is, indeed, questionable whether there is anything peculiar to the German theory and practice of teaching which is directly applicable to British or Amer ican conditions. Each nation must educate itself in its own way and for its own 0,1 uU The chief value of foreign exam ples consists in a rational understanding of the foreign way of adapting means to ends iu the realization of groat idoals. In this work, therefore, I luivo studiouHly resiwtod the temptation to point out the moral of every talo. The intelligent reader is capable of drawing his own conclusions he who reads merely to imitate noods no encouragement. It has been my aim to make each chapter as complete in it- self as possible, oven at the risk of some repetition of important facts, llof orences have boon cited iu foot-notes whorovor it has seemed necessary to refer to original documents or uu PREFAOB vii thorities of consequence. At the end of each chapter I have appended a short bibliographical list, through which students may easily acquaint themselves with the literature of the various topics...

Download or read book The Teaching of German in Secondary Schools written by Elijah Williams Bagster-Collins and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teaching of German in Secondary Schools The following pages represent the outgrowth of experience in high school work, of lectures given to intending teachers, and of a first-hand study of modern language instruction in various parts of Germany. The book is planned to give teachers, in book form, a helpful discussion of the main elements that go to make up a modern language course in secondary schools. Much of the material has long since been common property, perhaps, but has never, to my knowledge, been presented in so detailed a form, with the possible exception of "The Practical Study of Languages," by Sweet, which also serves a different purpose. This book will have to deal largely with answering two questions: Firstly, what is the best work we can hope to do in a course extending over a maximum period of four years in the high school? Secondly, what has experience to teach us as to the best way to do it? We are still in the experimental stage of language teaching, and probably shall be for some time to come. The time is not ripe for any man to come and say, and scientifically prove, "my method is the method of language teaching." We still lack scientific data with regard to the mental processes involved in learning a foreign language.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "R.F. Delderfield is a born storyteller." — Sunday Mirror To Serve Them All My Days is the moving saga of David Powlett-Jones, who returns from World War I injured and shell-shocked. He is hired to teach history at Bamfylde School, where he rejects the formal curriculum and teaches the causes and consequences of the Great War. Eventually David earns the respect of his students and many of his fellow teachers, against the backdrop of a country struggling to redefine itself. As David falls in love and finds himself on track to possibly take on the headmaster role, he must search to find the strength to hold true to his beliefs as the specter of another great war looms. To Serve Them All My Days is a brilliant picture of England between the World Wars, as the country comes to terms with the horrors of the Great War and the new forces reshaping the British government and society. Subject of a Landmark BBC Miniseries Includes Bonus Reading Group Guide WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING: "Mr. Delderfield's manner is easy, modest, heartwarming."—Evening Standard "He built an imposing artistic social history that promises to join those of his great forebears in the long, noble line of the English novel.

Combines tension with a splendid sense of atmosphere and vivid characterisation. An excellent read." —Sunday Express
