As a contemporary continuation of this gallant historical education struggle, Collins highlights the Marva Collins Preparatory School of Cincinnati.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English in the Preparatory Schools The changes that have taken place in recent years in the methods of language study have done much to advance the cause of good learning. Every teacher owes a lasting debt to those who have wrought out, and to some extent perfected, these new and practical methods. The debt of the teacher is, however, but a tithe of that due from those who have thus been spared laborious and well-nigh fruitless gropings through the labyrinths of a complex grammar and the blind by-paths of inexplicable idioms. Where the new methods have been wisely held in check by a recognition of the legitimate functions of grammatical study, the results have been in the main entirely satisfactory. Languages are now learned much more rapidly and easily than was the case a few years ago, and are thus the earlier brought into requisition as the means to some other and better end. Parrot-like knowledge of inflections and rules has ceased to be the goal of linguistic scholarship: the ability to use a language as a medium between the possessor and something to be sought in literature or life, is now more generally recognized as the purpose of such studies and the main reason for them. It is somewhat astonishing that, in view of all this, some more practical and rational method has not been adopted in the study of our own language as a vehicle of thought.

This book was released on 2018-10-12 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Haven Preparatory School, 1925-1927 The enrollment has increased from fewer than fifty students, at the beginning, to two hundred and fifty. To keep pace with this growth, the School has gradually developed a large and efficient teaching force; to do more thorough and intensive work, it has standardized and carefully outlined the courses of study. Mere numbers, however, afford no index to the worth of a school. That worth is determined rather by the quality of work the institution performs and this in turn depends on the character of its teachers and its students. The staff of New Haven Preparatory School consists of college and uni versity trained men of large teaching experience who know and are in sympathy with the aims and purposes of the stu dents. These latter constitute a body Of earnest men who have entered upon their educational work as a part of the business of life, rather than as a social accomplishment, and they come, in the main, from homes in which the habits of industry and economy are habitually fostered. They feel the necessity of increasing their vocational opportunities and usu ally enter the evening school with definite aims for the future. Practically all the students are engaged in work during the day. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Foundation English the Expression of Ideas written by Alice B. Macdonald and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Foundation English the Expression of Ideas Two demands, seemingly conflicting, have made a new first-year book in English for high schools a necessity, the first being the demand of the college for better written English on the part of the entering students; the second being the demand of the public for a more democratic distribution of courses than a college preparatory school offers. An examination of the two demands will show, however, that they are after all not diametrically opposed. Right thinking, clear and adequate expression, efficiency, are the reasonable and just demands both of the public and of the college. Neither is concerned with the method of doing the work, so long as desired results are obtained. The demand of the college for efficiency of expression has led to compulsory courses in English in our high schools, with a corresponding increase in the number of hours required for the study. No longer is it felt that only the gifted few can write; it is demanded that all shall write. The demand of the public, on the other hand, has led to the reduction of the elementary courses from nine years to eight, and the introduction into the high schools of the so-called vocational courses. The result has been to increase enormously the size of our first-year classes. These people also must be taught to write. In its way, then, the demand of the college is as utilitarian as the demand of the public. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the spirit of Studs Terkel's Working, Bill Smoot interviews master teachers in fields ranging from K--12 and higher education to the arts, trades and professions, sports, and politics. The result suggests a dinner party where the most fascinating teachers in America discuss their various styles as well as what makes their work meaningful to them. What is it that passes between the best teachers and their students to make learning happen?

Smoot's insightful questions elicit thought-provoking reflections about teaching as a calling and its aims, frustrations, and satisfactions.
