Book excerpt: Excerpt from Prussian Schools Through American Eyes, 1891: A Report to the New York State Department of Public Instruction This brief account of the Prussian elementary school system was prepared at the request of the Honorable Andrew S. Draper, Superintendent of Public Instruction for the State of New York, and appears in bis thirty -seventh annual report, transmitted to the Legislature January 6, 1891. The following extract from Superintendent Drapers report explains itself: - In 1867 Superintendent Victor M. Rice presented to the Legislature a special and elaborate report, attempting to set forth the educational conditions of all the enlightened nations of the world. The little volume was published by the State, but the edition was so limited that it is now almost unknown. In enabled the educators of the State to compare their own with other educational systems, and it was likewise prolific of suggestions. Us value, however, was impaired by reason of the fact that the information it contained was derived from the reports of foreign educational or other officers. or from encyclopaedias. To make them of the greatest value to us. foreign school systems must he seen through American eyes, and must be described by an intelligent friend of our school system, who is so anxious for its improvement that he is willing to seize upon any thing which will improve it no matter where he may find it. and who yet has the power of discriminating sufficiently to enable him to see not only what is good, but to determine what is practicable and advisable in this country. I have been desirous of presenting to the educators of this State something of this character covering the educational work of the leading nations of Europe, and of presenting it in such form as to make it available to all officers and teachers in the State. When, therefore, Mr. James Russell Parsons, Jr., ol Hoosick Falls, the accomplished school commissioner of the first commissioner district of Rensselaer county from 1885 to 1888. was made United States consul at Aixda Chapelle Germany, it occurred to me that the opportunity was offered for making an excellent, beginning in this direction. The Prussian elementary school system is the oldest, and admitted to be. in many regards, the best in the world. The man who could investigate and describe it more completely than most men in our State was going there to live for a considerable time, and to live under circumstances which would give him special facilities and opportunities fur information He readily acquiesced in my desire that he should undertake the work, and has presented me with a more comprehensive and detailed description of the plan of organization and the operations of the Prussian school system in, in more compact form than any other which is available to American readers. It is herewith transmitted to the Legislature, to the end that it. may appear in the annual report and reach all interested in the educational progress of the State, and in the confident belief that it will enable us to see more clearly the strong points and discern the weak points of our own system. If this undertaking shall seem to be pleasing and helpful, I hope to follow it next year with similar descriptions covering the public educational systems of England and France. I may add that it seems to me altogether the clearest statement that has ever appeared in English of just what, the Prussian schools are doing.

Download or read book Transatlantic Encounters in History of Education written by Fanny Isensee and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-26 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last twenty years, transnational perspectives have gained momentum in the field of historical-educational research. Scholars have made substantial efforts to rethink nation-based historiographies by reconstructing and reinterpreting the cross-border encounters and intertwined processes that have turned the history of education into a transnational enterprise. A closer look at specific transnational spaces furthers a better understanding of these processes. Against this backdrop, the book offers case studies focusing on transatlantic encounters with special regard to the manifold entanglements between Germany and the United States of America that represent one of the most complex, dynamic, and vivid educational spaces between the eighteenth and twentieth century. Drawing on excellent source material, each contribution examines interaction processes as the genuine transformative moment within any cross-border transfer, and investigates exchanges of concepts, institutions, and materials. Under this premise, the book draws attention to shifting trajectories in the German-American history of education that can be identified by focusing on long-lasting transnational entanglements. By offering a wide range of research approaches, the publication furthermore contributes innovative methodological thoughts to transnational histories of education that go beyond the German-American context and will interest students, emerging researchers, and experts of history of education.

This book was released on 1989-10-05 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The much admired school system of 19th-century Germany served as a model for the educational systems of many other countries, including Britain and the United States. In this illuminating study of German primary schools, Lamberti examines an educational tradition that was the object of wide emulation, but which was often misinterpreted by its admirers. Lamberti also explores the political significance of German educational policies in the Kulturkampf, in the suppression of Polish nationalism in the eastern provinces, and more generally in the struggle between the competing strands of liberalism and authoritarianism in the German state.
