Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from University Extension, Past, Present, and Future The first and second editions of this little book were published in August, 1890, under the title of "University Extension: Has it a Future?" They dealt, primarily, with the position created by the statement of the Chancellor of the Exchequer made in the House of Commons on the 21st of July, 1890, that part of the money accruing from the new spirit duty would ultimately be applied to the promotion of intermediate, technical, and agricultural education. Their object was to show that, from its past history and its present condition, the educational system, commonly known as University Extension, was worthy of serious attention whenever the Legislature should come to enumerate the institutions to which County Councils might vote grants in aid. The year which has elapsed since the autumn of 1890 has witnessed greater changes in English education than any which have happened since the memorable year 1870. Whilst the Imperial Parliament has been busy with Free Education, almost every County Council in England and Wales has been taking steps to initiate its own scheme of commercial and technical instruction.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from University Extension: Has It a Future? The movement known as University Extension seems to have arrived at a critical period in its history. The wonderful growth of the last two years, whether we measure it by statistics or by the newly awakened interest of newspapers and public men, seems to mark the end of the merely experimental stage. Several new developments are extending the operations of the system. We begin to feel that its tentative organization ought to give way to some more permanent arrangement. At the same time it is clear that both political parties have now come to the conclusion that the State must henceforth play a larger part in national education. On the 21st of July the Chancellor of the Exchequer intimated to the House of Commons that the Government proposed that part of the money accruing from the new Spirit tax should ultimately be used for education. At once in Wales and Monmouthshire, by and by also in England, it is to be devoted to the promotion of intermediate, technical and agricultural education.

This book was released on 2018-02-16 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from University Extension in the United States In 1874 a new agent of popular education, the Chautauqua move ment, began to make itself felt by the introduction Of more systematic and constructive Opportunities of study than were included in the plan of the lyceum. Chautauqua, with its summer schools and literary and scientific circle, Offered courses of instruction varying from, the more elementary to university grades. Correspondence study formed an important part Of its work, the courses being pre pared and conducted by university professors. During a brief period an attempt was made to'so broaden this Opportunity as to include the giving Of credit for studies of university grade with no residence requirement, degrees being granted by the University of the State of New York upon completion of work equivalent to that ex acted at a recognized institution. When other means for home study became more general this privilege was withdrawn. The transplanting of the English system of university extension did not take place until the year 1887, when an address before the American Library Association upon this subject aroused keen interest among members of the association and resulted. In the beginnings of university extension in several cities (buffalo, Chicago, and St. Louis) as an adjunct to the work of the city library.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from University Extension Higher education is no longer restricted to the few; that has passed, as the time has long passed when but few could afford to have light in their dwellings, or dwellings fit to be illuminated. In the future, the masses must be educated beyond the three R's, for the number of pursuits requiring trained perceptions and extensive knowl edge has increased from a few select professions to hundreds. How is this education to be achieved? I answer, Not by the scholastic scheme, with its university uppermost and its stalactitic appendages of college and high school. This statement is based on two reasons: First, the study of abstract truth and intellectual formulae, as a sole occupation, sublimates the fancy and creates in the manual worker a distaste for his future, instead of stimulating him to it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Place of University Extension When a new movement in education knocks at our door and demands recognition as an educational agency, it is natural and right that its adherents should justify its claims. Too often a seemingly new movement proves to be only a variety of some old agency dressed in a new garb, or what is worse, a subordinate element in education, pushed forward into a prominence which its intrinsic merits do not deserve. The new education has been heralded numberless times; in fact, it is always with us, and yet the predicted revolution has not come, and we are still following the traditional lines of education with such slight exceptions, that it would be difficult to enumerate any clearly defined principle which our age has brought forth. It is easy to see many changes in the educational world. The interest in education has greatly increased; the public are much more willing to support educational projects, both by taxation and by private gifts; the public schools have become a powerful means of elevating all classes of society; technical and secondary schools are abundant and efficient; and the great universities. State and private, have acquired an influence, which such institutions never before exercised. While recognizing these improvements, and many more that could be named I stall affirm that our age has not been original in its methods and that it has not departed widely from the educational traditions of the past. We have, to be sure, in a groping, unconscious way made many important modifications in our educational system, but the principles upon which they rest have not been enumerated, nor have they been justified upon grounds in harmony with the spirit through which the changes have come.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The University of California and Its Future The existing departments must be fostered and developed. Among them are included some that rank already with the best in the country. New departments cannot be established to the detriment or hindrance of what already exists. The department of agriculture is already highly eflicient and under superb leadership. California will justly demand that noth ing be spared in the development of this work. Especially in relation to the culture of fruit-trees (pomology) and horticul ture, provision for extension of the work must be provided. A department of forestry ought to be established at the first 0p portunity. What does California need more for its naked hills and its thirsty brook-beds? What does the whole Western slope of the continent need more for its desert stretches? Ultimately this must be a problem for the national govern ment to deal with, but California must lead and point the way.
