Samuel R. Hall belongs the credit of being the father of normal schools in America, the first to establish on this continent a school for the Special training and prepara tion oi teachers. 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.

They have steadily improved from the time of their organization until the present, and although other nations have also improved their school systems, Germany, it is conceded, still continues in the lead. The three most important lessons, Tm taught the world by Germany are: 1, that all mpg? Teachers must be professionally trained and lessons from therefore have a professional standing; 2, that Germ' they must receive permanent appointments; and 3, that children of lawful school age must attend school every day of the year that it is in session, the parents being held accountable for such attendance.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Topical Course of Study for the Common Schools of the United States, Vol. 1 A Grade that includes in right proportion, the studies which make symmetrical growth, is the first essential of a successful school system. How to establish such a gradation in the largest number of our common schools is the predominant object of every conscientious educator. There are two great obstacles to making such gradation for all our common schools. First: Under existing conditions, the necessarily close adherence of teachers to d104-books. Second: The endless variety of d104-books in use. There appears to be but one way to overcome these obstacles: that is a course of study in Topics. We have had a sufficient number of successes in individual schools to indicate what the topics of each grade should be; the order in which they should be studied, and, the average proportion of time that should be given to recitations upon each. (The proportion of time to be given to the study of each topic must depend upon the pupil.) The Topical Course of Study, is a compilation from the courses of study of our most successful public schools, and the best thought of leading educators.

Nor can we omit our acknowledgments for the expression of this interest in our undertaking, whether through the cordial voice of the press, in all parts of the State, or in the more substantial form of the encouraging fact, that, within the first year of our progress, we have had among us upwards of forty individuals intending to devote themselves to the business of education, or already actually engaged in it, besides the unexpected number of students in other departments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The School and the Schoolmaster: A Manual for the Use of Teachers, Employers, Trustees, Inspectors, &C., &C., Of Common Schools; In Two Parts A late writer (lamartine) has spoken Of the cross and the press as the instruments of the two greatest movements ever made in behalf of human civilization. To these may be added two other agents of mighty power: the steam engine and the common school. The moral nature of man can be permanently raised and transformed by nothing short Of the benignant in uence Of Christianity. His in tellectual powers can be duly developed and wisely applied onlv under the guidance of knowledge; and Of knowledge the press is now the grand expositor and representative. To promote his physical well-being, we need industry; and Of that industry which subdues the earth, vanquishes time and space, and makes all things tributary to man's couve nience, the steam-engine is unquestionably the most proper symbol. It is worthy of remark, that as each Of these great powers is necessary to the improvement Of mankind, so each Of them becomes more e icient in proportion as it co-operates with the rest. Christianity needs the press, the press needs the steam-engine; and these, in their turn, are safe and beneficent agents only when they who wield them are animated and controlled by Christian principle. It is still more to our purpose, however, to Observe, that no one Of them can exert its appropriate in uence, or dispense its proper benefits without the aid Of the school. Minds, for instance, besotted by ignorance and unaccustomed to thought. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on Public Instruction in Pennsylvania A large common school placed under the care of the Seminary, where each teacher can apply his knowledge and acquire experience and tact. The young men by reviews, taking notes, constant practice in oral and written lectures, and by the experience of the model school, must acquire the knowledge, and at the end manifest preparation and fitness to teach by examinations before impartial and qualified judges. The want of appropriate text-books, suited to this peculiar disci pline and science, will call for preparing such as are most essential. But the reliance must be oral and original communication of know ledge and practice. The relations and uses of one study to throw light-on others - the intimate connexion of the parts of the same branch, a just introductory survey at beginning, a review at the close are means of sure results. Whatever is worthy of being taught Should be made the subject of direct instruction in its natural connexion and' assigned place.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The City Institute for Religious Teachers The progress in religious education in the last few years has been highly encouraging. The subject has attained something of a status as a scientific study, and significant investigative and experimental work has been done. More than that, trained men and women in increasing numbers have been devoting themselves to the endeavor to work out in churches and Sunday schools the practical problems of organization and method. It would seem that the time has come to present to the large body of workers in the field of religious education some of the results of the studies and practice of those who have attained a measure of educational success. With this end in view the present series of books on "Principles and Methods of Religious Education" has been undertaken. It is intended that these books, while thoroughly scientific in character, shall be at the same time popular in presentation, so that they may be available to Sunday-school and church workers everywhere. The endeavor is definitely made to take into account the small school with meager equipment, as well as to hold before the larger schools the ideals of equipment and training.

If the person had utterly failed in every walk of life, he was very apt, on that account, to be considered even more eligible. But we have learned better than that.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from California Normal Training College for Sunday School Teachers, Bible Students, and Other Lay Workers: Prospectus for First Year, on the Basis of the American Institute of Religious Education The Regents of the "California Normal Training College" for the preparation of Sunday-school Teachers, Bible students and other lay workers, submit to the Christian public the plans of this institution, earnestly inviting the prayers and co-operation of all good people. The worthy ends proposed cannot fail to secure general approval. The future church is in the present Sunday-school. "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it." Every hope for the coming years centers in the boys and girls of to-day. To provide them, therefore, with competent instructors is the dictate of the highest wisdom. Many earnest souls, desiring to be useful in various other fields of lay effort, need to know how to study and handle the Word as the sword of the Spirit. It is believed that the movement now inaugurated is providentially ordered, and that it has all the elements necessary to the highest usefulness in both these directions. But success is possible only through united effort under the Divine blessing. The Executive Committee of the State Sunday-school Association, desiring to elevate the standard of teaching, invited Rev. J. E. Gilbert, D.D., of Indianapolis, General Superintendent of the American Institute of Religious Education, to spend three months in normal institutes under their direction, in various cities of the State. The Committee had received numerous testimonials of Dr. Gilbert's abilities as a specialist in this department, and they had some knowledge of the society he represented, and of its work in other states, so that there was good ground to hope that his services would prove a great blessing, preparing the way, possibly, for some permanent and more extensive measures.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Sketches of Education in Michigan Among the men who traveled widely throughout New England and New York was Prof. J. Orville Taylor, editor of an educational monthly, The Common School Assistant, published at Albany, N. Y., and the agent and manager of an enterprising school-book publishing concern, styled The American Com mon School Union. Mr. Taylor visited Detroit in June, 1839, and from there started on a lecturing tour throughout the southern part of the State, visiting fourteen of the leading places in the southern tiers of counties. He was probably the pioneer in the State of that corps of school-book agents who have from that day to this been among the most active and progressive friends and advocates of good schools, good education, good methods, and good books. In the number of his magazine for September, 1839, we find the following very interesting description of his visit to Ypsilanti, June 10, 1839.
