Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Better Rural Schools The rural school presents the most important problem in American education. In it are more than six million children coming from one great industry, agriculture the most fundamental and important of all industries. Under present conditions this occupation calls for an unusual degree of intelligence and skill. It demands the highest type of business management and industrial ability. And with the success of agriculture is linked the welfare of every American citizen, whatever be his status or vocation. Yet the rural school, the sole educational opportunity of most of our agricultural population, has been grossly neglected. In the midst of universal progress, it has been allowed to lag behind town and city schools. Abandoned to relative inefficiency, it has failed to hold the loyalty and) support of its constituency. The victim of changing social and industrial conditions, it has dwindled in size, diminished in influence, and lost step with the spirit of the times.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rural Centralized Graded and Model Schools: 1918 To The Reader: This bulletin has been compiled and issued in the interest of better rural school conditions. It deals principally with the subject of consolidated and union graded schools and should be studied carefully by all teachers, school board members, and patrons who are interested in making the rural schools of this state more efficient. It is not our purpose to urge the consolidation of schools against the wishes of the people in any community. On the other hand, we advise that unless a community can act in peace and harmony it would be better to let the schools remain as they are. We believe that a close study of this bulletin, in which we have set forth the advantages of consolidation the plan of organization and the results obtained in many of the consolidated schools, will create a desire to provide better advantages for the boys and girls now attending rural schools. We have endeavored to give you the best information obtainable from other states, in addition to the experience which we have had in our own state, on this subject. We fully realize that some course must be taken by which we can give to the boys and girls in the rural districts high school advantages. To send them to town for an education means not only to educate them away from the farm (home?) but, in many instances, to educate them under conditions very much to their disliking. We do not contend that it is not best to send the children to high school in the town or city when there is no other high school for them to attend. The reverse is true. But we do contend that a rural high school conducted entirely for the benefit of rural pupils is far more efficient and desirable for farm boys and girls than a town high school. During my first administration, the Legislature appropriated $100,000 to encourage consolidated schools. This was exhausted, and the last Legislature appropriated $175,000 for the benefit of consolidated and union graded schools. This money is available when the conditions prescribed by law are met.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Teaching in Rural Schools The United States Census Bureau classifies as living under rural conditions all persons living in the Open country and in towns and villages having less that 2500 inhabitants. On this basis, according to the census of 1910, per cent Of the population of the United States was classed as rural, and the figures probably have not changed materially since that date. In the last printed report of the United States Commissioner of Education it was stated that, during the preceding year, per cent of the children enrolled in the public schools of the United States were enrolled in schools classified by the Census Bureau as rural, while of the teachers employed, 60 per cent were employed in these rural communities. Approximately eighteen million children were enrolled in these same schools, and about 95 per cent of these were in the elementary grades.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rural Life and the Rural School This volume is addressed to the men and women who have at heart the interests of rural life and the rural school. I have tried to avoid deeply speculative theories on the one hand, and distressingly practical details on the other; and have addressed myself chiefly to the intelligent individual everywhere - to the farmer and his wife, to the teachers of rural schools, to the public spirited school boards, individually and collectively, and to the leaders of rural communities and of social centers generally. I have tried to avoid the two extremes which Guizot says are always to be shunned, viz.: that of the visionary theorist and that of the libertine practician. The former is analogous to a blank cartridge, and the latter to the mire of a swamp or the entangled underbrush of a thicket. The legs of one's theories (as Lincoln said of those of a man) should be long enough to reach the earth; and yet they must be free to move upon the solid ground of fact and experience. Details must always be left to the person who is to do the work, whether it be that of the teacher, of the farmer, or of the school officer.

The modern industrial city, with its peculiar patho logical conditions, has commanded both public and professional interest, but the rural com munity and the rural school have been neglected. Indeed, in many respects, rural life and rural institutions have lost ground. Relatively speak ing, they are not so efficient as they once were.

Out of an experience of many years as a teacher in rural, village and county high schools, and as a teacher of teachers, have the pages of this book been written; and it is offered to the public with the hope that it may add its mite to the improvement of rural schools.

This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Successful Teaching in Rural Schools IF our American public school system is to provide adequately for the education of all boys and girls, the rural schools of the United States must be improved. It is important in the consideration of this problem that we discuss methods of finance and of administration. It is even more important that well-trained teachers be placed in every classroom, and that those already at work in rural schools grow increasingly more efficient. In this volume the author has presented to rural school teachers a record of achievement by a group of rural school-teachers which is not only enlightening but in spiring. The book could not have been written by one who approached the problem as a theorist. It is out of a rich experience in achieving the ideals set forth, that Dr. Pittman has written to the rural school-teachers of the United States.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rural School, 1922: Survey, of New York State Educational Achievement It is one thing to provide in a school curriculum the necessary means for training children along the lines which society desires. Experience shows that schools often, while making all the necessary formal provisions for such training, fail to achieve the type of finished product desired and intended. It was the function of the Division of Tests and Measurements in the New York survey to make definite inquiry regarding this finished product of the rural schools of the state. It faced not so much the problem of what the schools should teach, as the problem of how well do the schools teach the things which all admit are included in its legitimate teach ing program. /how well do the pupils in these schools learn the things which by common agreement they should learn?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Ideals in Rural Schools IN presenting a second monograph on the rural school problem in this series we register our sense of the importance of rural education. Too long have the rural schools suffered from neg lect. Both the local communities and the State have overlooked the needs of the rural school system. At the present hour there is an earnest awakening of interest in rural life and its insti tutions. Already there is a small but certain movement of people toward the country and the vocation of agriculture. A period of agricultu ral prosperity, the reaction of men and women against the artificialities of city life, the devel Opment of farming through the application of science, and numerous other factors have made country life more congenial and have focused attention upon its further needs. It is natural, therefore, that the rural school should receive an increased share of attention. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rural Schoolhouses and Grounds In 1911 the National Council of Education appointed a committee on health problems in education. From the time of its appointment this committee has worked in cooperation with a special committee of the American Medical Association, and the fund available for the work of these health committees has consisted of small appropriations from the National Education Association and an equal amount appropriated each year by the American Medical Association. At the meeting of the department of superintendence of the National Education Association, held in St. Louis in February, 1912, a general report on health problems in the schools of the United States was presented and discussed. At the meeting of the National Education Association in Chicago, July, 1912, the topic Sanitation of Rural Schools was selected for the two committees mentioned for their special study.

This book was released on 2016-12-27 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of Rural Schools in Travis County, Texas The purpose of this investigation is to make an accurate and scientific estimate of the status of public education in about two hundred square miles of the southeastern part of Travis County. By making a close survey of this area and reporting it to the public in the following pages, it is hoped that other communities similarly situated will be assisted in finding where they stand educationally. This report is intended to serve as a simple, direct sort of guide whereby a rural community may conduct a self-examination into its school affairs, determining its points of greatest strength and revealing its sources of greatest weakness. It is a method of attack by examination and diagnosis before the issuance of a prescription or other remedial measure. This study has been presented as one chapter of a thesis offered in part fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the University of Texas, and its publication in this form ahead of the completion of the thesis has been allowed.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rural Education: A Complete Course of Study for Modern Rural Schools The average reader omits the preface of a book and seldom reads the appendix. Hence, much of what might properly be placed in these divisions has been included in the regular chapters. Most books of this kind are of very general nature. Our purpose is to supplement those already available with more definite suggestions and outlines for programs and courses of study not only for the academic work, but also for the so-called industrial work, some of which is now demanded in nearly every community. During the last few years education has assumed new aspects, which are reflected from the courses of study. The answers of students and parents as to what constitutes an education and why certain courses are pursued are interest ing. Usually the laboring man wishes his children to be educated so that they will not have to work as hard as he had. The well-to-do desire education for culture and social distinction. Others see the vocational side only. Too often the teacher's idea is to cram the students' memories with facts from books. Without further discussion we might define education as preparation for life. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Consolidation of Rural Schools in North Dakota The chief support of a Republic is education. This being so, then the first and main purpose of an education in a Republic is to train the future citizens in such a way that they may appre ciate highly and participate intelligently in the various'govern mental activities; and second, to prepare these citizens to earn and enjoy a good living in the various fields of human endeavor. This is the prime and sole function of the common school, which includes the rural school. This the rural school once did, .but today it. Is failing in its mission when compared' with the city school. It has been a great institution. It is yet the greatest Americanizing agency in the rural community. In the major ity of states it is the most important educational institution, for it enrolls in these states the majority of school children, and. To the majority of them it gives the only school training they ever will receive. This is also true of our state. According to the latest available statistics there are now in the state public schools with an enrollment of pupils. Of that number of schools are rural (one-room) schools with an enrollment of This means that the great majority of school children in the state are enrolled in the rural schools. Thus i is most im portant that we improve in every way possible the rural school. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
