Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rural Schools in Canada, Their Organization, Administration and Supervision The quickening of national consciousness in Canada during recent years is a natural outcome of the remarkable development of the past decade. The growing realization of the extent and variety of her natural resources has been accompanied by such a rapid increase in population bent upon their appropriation that the problems of utilization, cultivation, and conservation are being forced upon the consciousness of the people. Rich as Canada is in minerals, in forests, in fish, and in sources of mechanical power, her agricultural possibilities are, and will continue to be, her chief source of wealth. For many decades the majority of her people will be immediately dependent upon agriculture and its related industries. It is but fitting, therefore, that the question of education for those engaged in agricultural pursuits and those being reared in rural communities should receive a generous share of the attention of educators and liberal support from both the Federal and Provincial governments. The welfare and efficiency of our rural population is economically and socially at the very basis of our national life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rural School Supervision Sir: In the early history of this country, and of each of the States, when the population was sparse and communities widely separated, each school district and each school had an independent existence, with little or no relation to any other school or district or any larger unit. As population became more dense, as communities coalesced, as appropriations and expenditures for schools became larger, and as the larger units of county and State began to feel an interest in and responsibility for the education of the children of all their separate communities, the need for State and county officers for business administration was felt. Later still, the demand for efficiency in the schools and for the best possible use of money expended for schools and of the time of the children in school gave rise to a demand for expert supervision by men and women competent to give to all teachers, and especially to young and inexperienced teachers, help in those phases of their work in which they need it most. As a result, State, county, district, and township superintendents are now chosen with reference to their knowledge of teaching more than formerly; and in many States they are given the assistance of special supervisors. So valuable have been the results of the work of these expert supervisors in those places where it has been tried under favorable conditions that there is now a general desire for information on the subject. I therefore recommend for publication as a bulletin of the Bureau of Education the accompanying manuscript transmitted herewith on Rural School Supervision, prepared at my request by Katherine M. Cook and A. C. Monahan of the Rural Education Division of this bureau. Respectfully submitted. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Supervision of Instruction The following discussion and analysis of the elements of the supervisory process, and statement of the technique and professional standards for the supervision of instruction, will be read with interest by those who are concerned with the work of school supervision. The author of the volume is a school supervisor of experience, who has been unusually successful in training young people for the teaching service. Training novices for success in teaching is even more difficult work than that of a school principal or superintendent in initiating new or poorly experienced teachers into the work of a city-school system. Out of his experience he has worked out the following analytical discussion of the principles underlying classroom supervision, and the devices and technique which should, and which should not be employed. The fundamental purpose of all school supervision is to increase the efficiency of the classroom teacher. School supervision is worthy of the name only when it results in such an increase. Supervisors who conceive their function to be that of an inspector, and who go about checking up work accomplished and locating those who do not follow directions, are worth little.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Schools: Their Administration and Supervision "But to the spirit select there is no choice; He cannot say, This will I do, or that, For the cheap means putting Heaven's ends in pawn, And bartering his bleak rocks, the freehold stern Of destiny's first-born, for smoother fields That yield no crop of self-denying will; A hand is stretched to him from out the dark, Which grasping without question, he is led Where there is work that he must do for God. Chances have laws as fixed as planets have, And disappointment's dry and bitter root, Envy's harsh berries, and the choking pool Of the world's scorn, are the right mother-milk To the tough hearts that pioneer their kind, And break a pathway to those unknown realms That in the earth's broad shadow lie enthralled; Endurance is the crowning quality, And patience all the passion of great hearts; These are their stay, and when the leaden world Sets its hard face against their fateful thought, And brute strength like a scornful conqueror, Clangs his huge mace down in the other scale, The inspired soul but flings his patience in, And slowly that outweighs the ponderous globe, - One faith against a whole earth's unbelief, One soul against the flesh of all mankind." - "Columbus" James Russell Lowell About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

That the best schools are found in our towns and cities is due largely to the fact that they have had close professional supervision. In urban' communities this has been easily supplied; but the schools of our rural districts, unlike those of our towns and cities, are widely separated: in one county moveover, they number as many as one hundred or one hundred and fifty; yet the entire burden of supervision has been placed on the should ers of the county Superintendent of education.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Value of School Supervision: Demonstrated With the Zone Plan in Rural Schools Among all of the forms and grades of schools under public administration, there are none as much in need of supervisory guidance and help as the district schools in the open country. Such schools represent the most difficult supervisory problems found in our school sys tem. Country schools are distant from each other and from county seats. Country roads are aften poor. To visit country schools is enormously expensive in time, money, and energy. It is difficult to bring teachers together frequently for group conferences. To develop any plan by which supervision of country schools may be made more efficient and at an expenditure of time and money which does not make it prohibitive is therefore to make a very genuine contribution to the progress Of country school education.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Schools Administration: Including the Organization and Supervision of Schools American conditions do not seem to favor an easy, simple and effective administration of schools. Among the adverse conditions existing in many places are: (1) an overpowering sentiment in favor of local self-government and a strong opposition to centralization of any kind; (2) a non-recognition by the people of the need of professional knowledge and skill in carrying on the schools; (3) a tendency to adopt political methods in the election of school officials as well as in matters of school control; (4) the comparatively short terms of administrative offices and the frequent changes of membership in them; (5) the large extent of sparsely inhabited regions and the consequent difficulties of school attendance and classification; and (6) the difference of financial ability in the various sections of a State and the variety of needs to be met. Such conditions as these are likely to foster mistakes of administration which can be avoided only by the greatest care and effort. Among the mistakes of school administration actually existing in this country may be mentioned first the tendency of over organization in which the attention of the workers is turned away from the product to the machinery which turns it out. Again there is the other extreme of a lack of organization by which the time and effort of school officials are wasted. But more frequently perhaps than all else is the loose organization by which the duties of school officials overlap one another, frequently resulting in confusion and friction of a serious kind.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rural School, Its Methods and Management The present treatise on school methods and management is intended for teachers in the elementary country schools and for those in normal and high schools who expect to go into the rural schools to teach. The writer has studiously avoided all suggestions especially applicable to the management of city schools, and has purposely confined himself to such plans and methods as will be suited to the country school. While consolidation is an important movement, and many more weak districts should be united, yet in many parts of the United States the time is far distant when the one-room country school will, or should, be discontinued. A one-room school in the rural districts, taught by a competent teacher, is still a good place for a boy or girl to get the elements of an education. The United States Commissioner of Education reports that in the school year 1907-1908 there were five and one half million school children and one hundred thirty-four thousand teachers in cities of four thousand or more population; in the outside districts, there were eleven million children and three hundred sixty-one thousand teachers. In the state of Kansas there are two and one third times as many children in the one- and two-room schools and nearly five times as many teachers, as there are in the cities and towns maintaining graded systems of schools.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rural School Management For many years the graduates of normal schools and colleges of education have turned from the rural schools toward the more pleasant surroundings of the towns and cities. In the towns the salaries are usually better, the living conditions are more agreeable, the materials and equipment of education are more adequate, and the prestige of the teachers' positions is increased. With the unparalleled growth of city school systems demanding an increasing supply of teachers from year to year, the normal schools have been taxed to the limit of their ability in supplying the demand. As a natural outcome of these conditions the machinery of the institutions is directed primarily toward the training of students who will be able to work efficiently in graded school systems. This has left the schools of the country and the village without an adequately trained teaching corps. At first, they depended upon those residents of the country, mature and immature, who could show evidence of knowledge chiefly gained in country schools, sufficient to obtain a teachers certificate. Later, when the high schools, with the aid of the state and because of a quickening of interest among the citizens of towns and cities, grew in numbers, and became more accessible to children of the rural districts, high school graduates sought their teaching apprenticeship in country schools.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Development of a County System of Expert Supervision: Including Suburban, Village, and Rural Schools In the year 1900 the supervisory force consisted of a superintendent and assistant superintendent, having the usual administrative duties of a county superintendent, and, in addition, having the financial and clerical work involved in accounting for all expenditures on the schools. These two officials visited each school twice a year, each devoting about one hundred of the two hundred days the schools were open to the work. No more was possible. The principal of each school was a teaching principal, responsible at all times for a class, and therefore able to do only the administrative work of the school, with no time for grade supervision. The County Board of Education of six members, including farmers, merchants, and other men of affairs, soon came to see the necessity for more money and better supervision. The first step, after two years, was the employment of a clerk and stenographer. This gave the superintendent and assistant more time for visiting schools. Members of the board were taken with these two officials on their tours of school inspection just as often as possible, in order that the board might see and understand what it was possible to do to help the schools even in two short annual visits, and the importance of better supervision was constantly kept before them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Rural Supervision: Miscellaneous Pamphlets It is no longer true that the majority of the parents are interested in the public schools, and eager and ambitious for their advancement. Statistics show clearly that children are not regular in their voluntary attendance, and are not absorbed in their student work. And the testimony of all persons who are familiar with the facts is practically unanimous upon the point that we have many teachers who are conspicuously unfit, intellectually, scholastically and professionally for the service they attempt to perform. Since all these things are true, and are known to be true by those who have given this matter careful attention, it is for the interest of everybody that the truth be told. The schools of Maine are of such quality that the people can afford to know all the facts concerning them. The old red schoolhouse of the Pine Tree State has furnished opportunities for the training of so large a number of men and women who have occupied distinguished positions in this and other states as to amply vindicate its influence, power and usefulness. The number of persons who are natives of this State and who have served with distinction as cabinet officers, members of congress, governors of other states, etc., is so large that no one should be sensitive about any criticisms which may be made upon our public schools. When we add to this notable list the multitude who have gone forth from their Maine homes to make for themselves honorable places in the professional, industrial, scientific and literary world, we are certainly justified in feeling proud of the institution which has prepared these people for their work and contributed so largely to their success. It is known to but few how large a concourse of persons have gone from this State and stand to-day in the front ranks of the progressive men and women of the different communities in which they have found their fields of labor. The large majority of these people received the best, and in many instances the most of their training in the common schools. The old academy, seminary and the colleges of Maine have done a work unparalleled in fitting those who came under their instruction for positions of distinguished usefulness. They have done this work so well that it is natural for many to regret that, with only a few conspicuous exceptions, the academy and seminary have passed out of existence; but they rejoice that the colleges remain, developed by years and strengthened by larger endowments and better equipments. People who are conscious of their weakness are peculiarly sensitive to an exposure of their frailties. People who are conscious of their strength welcome any revelation which helps them to a better knowledge of themselves and better means of development. Believing that the people of Maine are capable of establishing, maintaining and intelligently using the best schools of the age, an effort has been made to place before them, verbally and graphically the condition of the schools of the State. These studies have not been undertaken for the purpose of proving any theories, gratifying any personal ambitions, or placing the State before the country in an unenviable light.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Special Instructions for the Organization of Rural Graded Schools To Trustees and Teachers: The growth of rural graded schools employing two teachers or three teachers has brought better educational facilities to nearly 300 districts containing nearly 25,000 children. This bulletin is reprinted for four reasons: - 1. To emphasize the necessity of careful organization, especially in the first four grades. The daily programs for two-teacher and three-teacher schools are especially recommended for careful examination. Every school receiving State aid must file with the State Superintendent a copy of each teacher's daily program before this aid can be paid. 2. To call attention to the supplementary reading books, and, incidentally, to the 1914 Library List. 3. To urge proper equipment in each classroom. In many schools this minimum equipment can be improved, especially in blackboards, maps and desks. 4. In the hope of stimulating lagging communities to take advantage of the rural graded school Act. Each school should file at the end of the first month its application for State aid during the current year. All such applications should reach the State Superintendent between December 1st and December 15th. If principals and teachers would forward specimen programs without written requests, their co-operation would facilitate the handling of applications by the State Department of Education. At the close of the session each principal should file his annual report with the State Superintendent of Education, the County Superintendent of Education, and the Clerk of the Local Board of Trustees. Schools failing to forward this report are liable to forfeit their right to State aid the ensuing year. The three-teacher school guarantees adequate instruction. South Carolina needs at least 500 such educational centers. The present development points to the establishment of many additional high schools and rural graded schools during 1914-15.

He must quicken pupils as well as teachers, and to do this he must be a clean, attractive, and forceful character, who appeals to the buoyancy and ambition of youth. He must be a worker. He must be an intelligent friend of true sport. He must be a scholar; he must know the literature of the schools; he must be specially proficient in educational history, and pedagogical theory and method; and he must keep up with progress in the organization and work of schools in other districts, in other states, and in other countries. He must have a share in educational meetings in the State and nation to the end that he may possibly contribute to their potential strength, and certainly to the end that he may get from them the aids which will help him to do the most for his own schools. Withal, he must be a sane and balanced character, who is familiar with affairs, who is neither an eccentric nor a bombast, who can move among the people on at least equal terms, to whom teachers may be naturally disposed to look for guidance, and to whose judgment and influence parents may be glad to submit the future of their children. One can not be all this, nor any appreciable part of it, unless he is a balanced character and is a student of it; nor unless he has had experience at it. He must have judgment and discrimination. He must be able to resist, as well as to do. He can not fill this place and divide his time and thought with any other business. He can have no other interest which will take his time, or his thought, or which will warp his judgment, for the place demands all the thought, and all the force, of an all-around man or woman who has become an expert in the organization and administration of schools. What such an one can do for the schools can not be fully described; indeed, it can hardly be appreciated by one not familiar with the complex educational activities of the country. But that is what we mean by school supervision. No such supervision in the farming districts Such supervision has developed very rapidly in the cities of the State in the last forty or fifty years. It is this that has made for the quite uniform excellence of the city schools. It is this, at least, that has made the schools notably good in the cities where the best superintendents have been long continued.
