July 11-13, 1883 This volume contains an abstract of the proceedings of The American Institute of Instruction for 1883, together with the several lectures and discussions in full, or in condensed form as reported. The subjects treated embrace School Supervision its present condition and needs; the relations of the several grades of schools necessary to be maintained and the kind of instruction requisite to a complete education. It is to be regretted that more full and accurate reports were not preserved of some of the valuable addresses, especially of those of Dr. Henry Barnard, Presidents Buckham and Seelye, Mrs. Livermore, and Colonel Parker. The volume is, however, a valuable contribution to the educational literature of the current year, and will hold a high rank in the series of annual volumes, now numbering over fifty, of which it forms one. By a mutual understanding between the officers of the American Institute and the National Teachers' Association, these two educational associations were held in succession during the same week. The meetings of the National Association being held at Saratoga, N. Y., it was possible by this arrangement for members of both associations to be present at both meetings. With the accessions from the National, and the attendance from various parts of New England, the membership considerably exceeded one thousand. The above arrangement resulted in securing a large assemblage of eminent educators from various parts of the country, and thus afforded an opportunity for social intercourse, and the comparison of views - important ends to secure in popular educational gatherings.
