Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practice Work in University Departments of Education Several reasons seem to warrant reprinting the following mono graph, which was prepared for discussion at the meeting of the National Society of College Teachers of Education in February, 1909, and issuing it as a Bulletin of the University of Texas. In the first place, it will serve purely as a. Matter of current informa tion. The whole field of education is becoming diversified so rapidly that. It is increasingly difficult to keep up with the march of events. The University of Texas owes it to the teachers of the state to keep them informed as to the progress of' university educa tion in our sister states, particularly with reference to the evolu tion in the educational departments, for as De Quince-y has sug gested, A man who takes up any pursuit without knowing what advances others have made in it works at a great disadvantage. He does not apply his strength in the right direction. Again, the plan outlined here represents the goal toward which the School of the Art of Teaching at our State University is working. Unfor innately the facilities at our disposal at the present time do not permit of its full realization. This, too, the teachers of the state should know in order that they may help us and that we mav re ciprocally aid them, The present rapid forward movement of education in this commonwealth presents most encouraging signs that the needed facilities will soon be forthcoming. Finally, it is believed that the studv of this paper may suggest to superintend ents of school systems ways in which they may increase the stan dard of efficiency of the teachers under their control, and thus in turn may increase the productive power of the young people who are issuing forth from our schools.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Observation and Practice Teaching in College and University Departments of Education The colleges and universities have offended, too, in assum ing that they can do the work of the normal schools. True their education departments might be so organized that they could discharge this responsibility, but constituted as they are at present, the emphasis is largely on the side of teaching subjects rather than on teaching children. The normal school that requires a four-year high school course for entrance and is thus free to devote itself largely to the professional side of the elementary school subject-matter has the advantage of the college and university departments of education, as they are constituted at present, in the preparation of teachers for the lower schools. If the elementary schools generally were organ ized on the departmental plan, some of the disadvantage might be obviated, but at present it is manifestly impossible for the university to give that attention to all the subjects of the ele mentary school curriculum that is so essential for teachers eu tering upon that particular field. Our best normal schools spend a relatively small amount of time in taking up new sub jects of study per se, but they devote themselves primarily to reviewing the elementary branches through the media of those more advanced. It is not so much a more extensive study of the lower subjects that is needed as a more intensive study of those same subjects with a view to teaching them. To the extent that the institutions of higher learning fail to do this - it is by no means to their discredit; they have another function in the intellectual world - to that very extent do they fall behind the normal school in the preparation of elementary teachers. Be cause all our normal schools are not ideal either in their condi tions for entrance or in the character of their work, does not justify the universities in attempting to assume part of these burdens. Each institution has abundant work in its own par ticular field. Let us rather work together to build up the standard of these lower professional schools until they attain the highest type of efficiency of which they are capable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Developments in Educational Practice I his book America's Coming of Age Mr. Van Wyck Brooks tells us that on his side of the Atlantic "the recognised way of pinning down something that is felt to be in the air is to adopt some cast-off phrase and tack the word New before it." But America has no monopoly of the device. On this side we have always had the New Art: lately we added the New Theology, the New Nationalism, the New Psychology - and now we have the New Education, with its variant the New Teaching, not to speak of the New Children. The reader's first reaction to the much-used adjective is one of opposition. He declines to admit that these things are really new. Critics cannot resist the temptation to quote a thesomely familiar saying of a French cynic that the more such things change the more they are the same. In teaching, for example, no sooner does one suggest a method as something specially fresh than a resurrectionist expert is at hand to dig up from the history of education some hoary example of the same thing.

Bagley became Professor of Education in 1908, he bent his energies to ward establishing a more thorough and adequate practice-teach ing system. Cooperating with him, Mr. C. M. Moconn, then Principal of the University Academy, formulated in 1909 A Plan for the Trial of Practice Teaching in the Academy in 1909 This plan was approved by the faculty of the College Of Literature and Arts and was put into operation in the second semester of 1908-09. It involved no radical change in the ad ministration of the University Academy. Sections of the large classes in English, mathematics, history, and foreign lang uages were assigned to practice teachers, who were either grad uate students or seniors in the University. These assistants as they were called, applied for their positions the semester before entering the practice school. Only those were accepted who gave promise of effective service.

This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practice Teaching for Prospective Secondary Teachers, Vol. 7 At the meeting of College Teachers of Education, held in Cincinnati in February, 1915, a committee was named to make a study of the status of practice teaching of prospective teachers for secondary schools, to report at the Detroit meeting in 1916. In compliance with this request the Committee offers the following report, which is of necessity a tentative one for several reasons, namely: 1. The problem of the administration and supervision of the practice teaching of prospective secondary school teachers is only one phase of the larger problem of the entire training of prospective secondary school teachers, and the committee has for this reason found it somewhat difficult to get a definite line of cleavage that permitted a clear interpretation of the smaller problem without consideration also of the fundamental one. 2. The translation of educational nomenclature into terms simple enough to serve the purpose of tabulation and classification has been found to be a matter of no inconsiderable difficulty. If misinterpretations of existing practices regarding the administration and supervision of practice teaching are found in this report they may in a measure be accounted for by this situation. 3. Many institutions are still in the experimental stage of practice teaching, and therefore unwilling to submit their policies in answer to questionnaires and letters of inquiry. A few of the most progressive institutions in the country have not yet undertaken to give any training whatever in practice for their intending secondary school teachers. 4. There is little or no precedent established for the conduct of practice teaching in secondary schools. The work has in a sense sprung up spontaneously in various university and college centers in response to real professional needs.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Teacher Training in the University High School The College of Education of the University of Illi nois, recognizing the importance of some kind of worth while educational practice, established its University High School which has been designed to serve three purposes: first, to act as an experimental laboratory for various types of investigations which may seem to be desirable in the advancement of the science of educa tion; second, to serve as a model school for the educa tors of Illinois; and third, to present opportunities for worthwhile observation on the part of students planning to become teachers and to give them actual experience through daily contact with actual class work under as desirable conditions as possible. The faculty of the Uni versity High School has, therefore, properly considered during these years that one of its chief tasks was to make as effective as possible the educational practice work for the College of Education. This bulletin has been prepared to show to the high school principals of the state and to all others interested in the character of our educational practice work the way in which this rather difficult problem has been at tacked. It is quite obvious that a relatively small high school cannot furnish, from the standpoint of time, um limited opportunities for full time practice teaching. Some modification of the traditional practice teaching period, therefore, had to be made. It was also the belief of the faculty of the College of Education that a far more economical use of the time of students desiring educational practice could be secured if a very systematic procedure could be developed. Those interested in this problem, by reading the statements prepared by the faculty of the University High School, can secure a very correct conception of the work of the University High School so far as it relates to the furnishing to the students in the College of Education opportunities for intelligent observation and valuable first hand contacts with the problems of the teacher.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: . Renewal of Life by Transmission. The most notable distinction between living and inanimate things is that the former maintain themselves by renewal. A stone when struck resists. If its resistance is greater than the force of the blow struck, it remains outwardly unchanged. Otherwise, it is shattered into smaller bits. Never does the stone attempt to react in such a way that it may maintain itself against the blow, much less so as to render the blow a contributing factor to its own continued action. While the living thing may easily be crushed by superior force, it none the less tries to turn the energies which act upon it into means of its own further existence. If it cannot do so, it does not just split into smaller pieces (at least in the higher forms of life), but loses its identity as a living thing. As long as it endures, it struggles to use surrounding energies in its own behalf. It uses light, air, moisture, and the material of soil. To say that it uses them is to say that it turns them into means of its own conservation. As long as it is growing, the energy it expends in thus turning the environment to account is more than compensated for by the return it gets: it grows. Understanding the word "control" in this sense, it may be said that a living being is one that subjugates and controls for its own continued activity the energies that would otherwise use it up. Life is a self-renewing process through action upon the environment.

Many good resolutions of silence made and confirmed during thirty years of school-work, as every hope of a public character which brightened the early days was destroyed, have been broken by the appearance of this book. Success only strengthened the conviction that it was useless to speak; and yet when the conviction seemed strongest some folly has swept it away.

This book was released on 2017-12-12 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practice in the Case of School Children The practice on which this study is based was conducted dur ing the years 1911 and 1912 in the schools of the Children's Aid Society in the third and fourth-year classes as a part of the regular grade work in arithmetic. In all, about 1350 children took part. It was the intention that the study should be con ducted under school conditions normal for children, teachers, and supervisor, in order to meet, as. Far as possible, a current criticism that results obtained from studies with small groups of persons under laboratory conditions, are not applicable in school conditions; and also in order to establish greater confi dence in the validity of the results of the study and insure the applicability of its results to actual school-room problems. It is true that one meets a greater number of factors under such conditions that can not be controlled than in an experiment con ducted under laboratory conditions, but they are the factors that enter into all school-room work and help to determine both its quality and quantity. There was approximately the same simi larity of ability in the classes that took the practice that one ordinarily finds in a school system where a common course of study is followed and where all the teachers are under similar supervision, but where there is diversity of nationality and ex treme individual variations among the children. Two different experiments were conducted, one in addition, the other in division. The addition was given to classes in the fourth year of the elementary school; the division, to classes in the last half of the third year and the first half of the fourth year. These classes had done the work outlined in arithmetic in the New York City course of study. Hence the children had been taught the facts and processes involved in the experiment.

Drawing upon new research in psychology, education, and cognitive science, the authors have demystified a complex topic into clear explanations of seven powerful learning principles. Full of great ideas and practical suggestions, all based on solid research evidence, this book is essential reading for instructors at all levels who wish to improve their students' learning." —Barbara Gross Davis, assistant vice chancellor for educational development, University of California, Berkeley, and author, Tools for Teaching "This book is a must-read for every instructor, new or experienced. Although I have been teaching for almost thirty years, as I read this book I found myself resonating with many of its ideas, and I discovered new ways of thinking about teaching." —Eugenia T. Paulus, professor of chemistry, North Hennepin Community College, and 2008 U.S. Community Colleges Professor of the Year from The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching and the Council for Advancement and Support of Education "Thank you Carnegie Mellon for making accessible what has previously been inaccessible to those of us who are not learning scientists. Your focus on the essence of learning combined with concrete examples of the daily challenges of teaching and clear tactical strategies for faculty to consider is a welcome work. I will recommend this book to all my colleagues." —Catherine M. Casserly, senior partner, The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching "As you read about each of the seven basic learning principles in this book, you will find advice that is grounded in learning theory, based on research evidence, relevant to college teaching, and easy to understand. The authors have extensive knowledge and experience in applying the science of learning to college teaching, and they graciously share it with you in this organized and readable book." —From the Foreword by Richard E. Mayer, professor of psychology, University of California, Santa Barbara; coauthor, e-Learning and the Science of Instruction; and author, Multimedia Learning

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to Herbart's Science and Practice of Education It is the handmaid of pedagogy. Herbart says of it, Psychology is the primary auxiliary science of the teacher; we must have it before we can say of a single lesson what has been taught rightly and what wrongly. But this large and complicated task has an aim, viz., to build up a moral character. The teacher has to lead the child to the knowledge of good and evil, to train his will to choose the good, and to enable him of himself to keep thereto and continue to make it the law of his life. For active perception of this aim in general, as well as in individual parts, a knowledge of ethics or practical philosophy1 is needful, and it i.) thus the second assistant science of pedagogy.
