Book excerpt: Excerpt from Training Departments in State Normal Schools, in the United States In common with other forms of vocational education the preparation of teachers requires a curriculum made up of subjects of study which will contribute to the development of the desired skill, and for the exercise, under supervision, of the skill in question. Vocations differ among themselves in the definiteness of the skill involved. In some vocations the conditions under which the skill is to be exercised are relatively fixed and can be so definitely foreseen that the skill can be made effective by being highly mechanized through training. In others the conditions to be met are so variable, so impossible to foresee in detail, that the skill in a large measure cannot be mechanized and the preparation for the vocation consists not in definite training but in education which is-designed to prepare the individual to meet and to deal intelligently with variable conditions in the field of his vocation. The vocations commonly called professions involve some situations which may he prepared for in the first way; they involve more which can be prepared for only in the second. Preparation for these professions consists in gaining the wide range of knowledge germane to the problems of the vocation, and practice in the application of this knowledge to concrete situations. The purpose of both is (1st) to train the novice in technique through doing in the practice period certain things which will be duplicated in later actual exercise of the vocation, and (2nd) to develop resourcefulness in applying technical knowledge to concrete situations, and exercise which, it is hoped, will prepare him to meet new conditions similar in only a general way to the conditions encountered during the practice period.

This book was released on 2018-02-11 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Conscious Program for the Normal Schools and Teachers Colleges of America, Vol. 3 To the teacher-training schools Of America are entrusted the duties and responsibilities of leadership - the era of followership for us is past. Such progress as is to come to public education in the future is to come from the teachers who, though they may not know their subjects better will certainly know the social bearings of their subjects better, and will certainly know the nature Of the learning process better. If this is to be so, it will be because the institutions that prepare teachers have become better able to focus them selves upon the characteristic problems of teacher-training. And this in turn implies that a better method of determining what are the pressing tasks of normal schools has been adopted. After a long period of largely unconscious experimentation we are reaching the vantage from which our progress - our advance in efficiency of service - can become conscious. To have leadership we must have a conscious program. When we have this we can dispense with the ornaments of rhetoric and will take the pains to work out the implications of the blanket phrases in which we have long cast our philosophy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Training of Teachers The first thing to be considered is the fact that the train ing of teachers, as the phrase is now understood, had pre viously been wholly neglected throughout the country. Teachers had no other preparation for their work than their natural aptitude for the art, their knowledge of the subjects which they taught, and such practical lessons as they learned in their school rooms. As respects their academic prepa ration, they presented, as a class, a very motley appearance, as a cursory view of the schools of the country will abun dantly Show.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Normal Schools: Their Relation to the Primary and Higher Institutions of Learning, and to the Welfare and Progress of Society, Together With Their Future in the United States If, Gentlemen, the foregoing brief summary has been made intelligible, it will readily be understood that from the Pri mary School as a foundation, other Institutions must succes sively arise adapted to carry on to completion the work already begun. They should ow from it as naturally as the stream ows from its source, widening and deepening with each in ux of its tributaries as it moves majestically onward to the sea. When we understand and appreciate, as we ought, the object which these successive Institutions are designed to answer, we shall give to them such an organization as will fit them for the progressive development of the complex forces of our three-fold nature. They will thus become but logical parts of one consistent harmonious whole, each adapted to its special functions, each laboring for and aspiring to the same desirable and comprehensive end. From this commanding stand-point, having in full view the nature of the work which the education of the present day proposes, as well as the entire system of means by which this work is intended to be accomplished, it is an easy task to trace the relation of Normal Schools to the great scheme of public education, and to the welfare and progress of that society whose most urgent necessity is that of earnest, enter prising, active, working, intelligent, moral, religious men, de voted to the great interests of their species and to the fulfilment of those high destinies which man is placed here to work out.

Schools oi this kind were ad vocated as early as 1816 by Professor Denison Olmstead while a tutor in Yale College, in an address delivered on the state of education in Connecticut, in which he endeavored to show that the great defect in our school education was the ighorance and incompetency of the teachers, and the only remedy was a seminary for their special instruction and training for the work of their profession. Other gentlemen deeply interested in the cause 01 popular educa tion, had from time to time before the establish ment of our state normal schools in 1838 made similar suggestions, and Professor Ticknor in the North American Review [or 1827 advocated the same.

This book was released on 2016-09-20 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from First Quarto-Centennial History of the State Normal and Training School, Potsdam, N. Y., 1869-1894 The rapid progress of the Normal idea in America, is worthy of especial mention when contrasted with the slow development of the same idea in the Old World. In less than a quarter of a century after the first agitation of the question in this country, the first Normal school in America was Opened in 1839 at Lexington, Mass, (now Framingham, Mass.) with Mr. Cyrus Peirce, the Arnold of America, at the head. Without doubt the establish ment of professional schools in Europe, especially the Prussian system, had much to do with accelerating the work in America, but great credit should be given these early pioneers who with feeble beginnings, and with meager appointments, were able to give such impetus to the work in the New World, for the evidence seems conclusive that the originators of the movement in America, Mr. Olmstead Mr. Hall Mr. Gal landet and others, conceived the idea from their own observations of the needs of their schools. In 1834 Rev. Charles Brooks (hingham, Mass.) after thorough ly acquainting himself with the Prussian system resolved to do something about State Normal Schools. To the untiring labors of this man, more than any other agency, is probably due the particular form of Normal school training in this country, viz: that the true function of the Normal school consists in pedagogical instruction.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Aspects of Commercial Training With the growth of commercial departments in the high schools naturally came the call for teachers. Three or four of the normal schools, notably those at Salem, Massachusetts, Cedar Falls, Iowa, and Whitewater, Wis consin, took up seriously the special training of teachers to answer the call. Two years ago the Illinois State Normal University began to prepare young people to teach the com mercial branches. The installation of this department was in response to the needs of Illinois, and the frequent calls from superintendents and principals in Illinois, and else where, for more and better qualified teachers in this special line. The progress of commercial training in the schools of the Middle West has been remarkable. Illinois has been in the van of this onward movement. 'every year has seen additions to the number of schools giving this work. There has been a famin of good teachers from the beginning.
