Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Historical Curriculum in Colleges As regards the sequence of historical subjects in college, I believe that as a general principle the order of chronological development should be followed where possible, and that a gen eral view of the field of history should ordinarily precede courses on special periods or movements. Such a view of history cannot, however, be advantageously given in a single course, but requires two or three years of consecutive study. If our students brought' to college any such acquaintance with the field of history as is possessed by the graduates of German gymnasia or French lyce'es, they might profitably begin at once with more intensive courses, but such, unfortunately, is far from being the case. In spite of the rapid advances in historical instruction in schools, it still remains true that the average freshman carries with him but a small viaticum of historical knowledge or training, and that his acquaintance with the world's history must for the most part still be gained in college. A general view of the development of civilized life is what he has the right, first of all, to demand, only this must not be so rapid as to render impossible any real under standing of the times studied.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Colleges and the American Public The first large edition of this work having been exhausted for several years, a second is now submitted to the American Public, with the addition of several papers on subjects that are nearly related to the topics already discussed. The writer trusts that it will be remembered that not one of the essays in the volume is exhaustive of its theme, and that the suggestions which they contain are expressed very frankly, with the expectation that they will not receive the assent of many who read them. The interests involved, however, are too important to allow the concealment of opinions which concern some of the most important interests of the community.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Historic College: Its Present Place in the Educational System; An Address If I may now assume that I have shown that the dis tinction of the college lies in its homogeneity, and that I have rightly interpreted the causes which are at work to preserve that distinction, we are ready to take up the next part of our question and ask, What is the capacity of the college to meet the widening demands of the new educa tion? Is there anything in the subject-matter, or method, or general discipline, introduced by the new education, which excludes the historic college from a share in it, or remands it to an inferior place? The answer to this ques tion changes somewhat our point of view. Thus far we have been concerned more with the contrast between the college and the university. We shall now be concerned more with the contrast between the college and the school of technology. Yet for the moment we remain in the former field. By long tradition there are certain subjects requiring continued and specialized treat ment which have been put quite without and beyond the college curriculum. These subjects have been chiefly con nected with the great professions. It is now to be noted that there is a tendency to throw back a considerable amount of elementary work from the professional schools into the colleges. Allowance is made both in time and in the larger choice of studies, in the schools of medicine and of theology, and in some cases of law, for those who have taken elementary courses in the colleges. A college student may, if the college so provides, elect his way, up to a certain point, into a professional school. But for the most part the subject-matter of the professional schools must be altogether different from that of the college.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Administration of the College Curriculum The chief movement in the history of the college curriculum in America is the breakdown of prescribed programs through the evolution of the Elective System. Accordingly, this movement is the dominant interest in any study of the curriculum, historical or critical. A generation ago it was interesting to speculate on what might happen if this principle of free choice should work its way down to the freshman year. Since then, opinions on this subject have lost their charm, for a vast body of actual experience now invites organization and interpretation. In the archives of Harvard College alone are the records of nearly half a century of elective studies. Here is a well-equipped laboratory awaiting students of higher education. Interpreted by proper statistical methods, these records can give guidance in the administration of the college curriculum beside which the opinion of any man, or any body of men, is insignificant.

Book Synopsis American Public Schools by : John Swett
Download or read book American Public Schools written by John Swett and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Public Schools: History and Pedagogics This book is intended mainly for the great body of American public school teachers, and, incidentally, for library use in normal schools or in normal departments of other institutions of learning, both public and private. The prominence now given to American educational history by the pedagogical departments of universities has led to a similar line of study in many state normal schools. Furthermore, these historical studies have been emphasized during the past decade by a long series of able and exhaustive papers on the history of our public school system, published in the annual reports of the United States Commissioner of Education, and in special Bulletins of Information. But these reports, rich in historical treasures, reach only a small number of the five hundred thousand teachers in our country, and are not available for practical purposes in large classes of normal students. There seems to be room for a hand-book containing a series of studies on the vital points of public school history; and also an outline of the psychological and pedagogical methods of instruction and management in American public schools.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Curriculum of the Woman's College In 1886 President James Monroe Taylor was inaugurated, and the next year brought the Revised Curriculum. Severe criticism, public and private, and a formal protest in 1882 from the alumnae in Boston had stimulated investigation and modification. Attendance was fall. Ing off and Vassar was not holding her own with other colleges for women. Whether this loss was due to conservatism within the college or to the attraction of the other colleges, the alumnae did not know, but they were sure the condition could be relieved.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A School History of the United States The object aimed at in the preparation of this book was to produce a systematic, brief, clear, and authentic history of the United States for the use of schools. The plan is simple. N o arbitrary division into historical periods and eras is employed, but each chapter embraces associated events and forms a natural link in an unbroken chain. A strictly chronological order of arrangement is followed, whereby occurrences are shown in their true relation to one another, and to their causes. The most important dates are made prominent in the text by a peculiar type. A condensed record of general progress is placed at the end of almost every chapter, designed to interest the pupil in the civil and domestic character of the country, and in employments, institutions, and ideas not directly connected with wars, politics, or national legislation.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Goucher College, 1930 1985 Events in the turbulent sixties brought a halt to the efforts toward educational reform based on rigor, structure, and specialization. As students became involved in the civil rights and anti-war movements and directed more and more of their time and energy to these causes, they began to feel that existing courses of study and the emphasis on fulfilling requirements were irrelevant to their current needs. Having learned to highlight their protests in the political arena, they turned their attention to reforming the curricular offerings. These student de mands, coupled with support from faculty members, produced radical changes in the curriculum.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Public Opinion and the Teaching of History: In the United States It is the purpose of this study to give an historical ac count oi some of the attempts to control the teaching of history ln the public schools. The first four chapters trace the legislative control that has been exerted in all periods of our history, beginning with the educational enactments of the early colonies and following the development of the curriculum to the present time. Such statutory control falls into fairly definite periods. The first embraces the earliest statutes relating to public education. During this period history was introduced into the school curriculum as a separate subject specified by law. The next stage, 1860 to 1900, was characterized by the influences set in motion by the Civil War and the Economic Revolution. In the years from 1900 to 1917, the history curriculum reflected the new interest of the American people in the social and economic conditions that had developed. From 1917 to the present, the dominant note has been a dynamic patriotism growing out of the World War. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-09-15 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Student's History of Education There is a growing conviction among those engaged in training teachers that the History of Education must justify itself. It is believed that, if this subject is to con tribute to the professional equipment of the teacher, its material must be selected with reference to his specific needs. Antiquarian interests and encyclopaedic complete ness are alluring and may in their place prove praise Worthy and valuable, but they do not in themselves supply any definite demand in the training of teachers. The greatest services that the History of Education can perform for the teacher are to impel him to analyze his problems more completely and to throw light upon the school practices with which he is himself concerned. By presenting a series of clear-cut views of past conditions, often in marked contrast to his own, it should make him conscious that the present educational situation has to a large degree been traditionally received, and it should at the same time especially help him to understand the origin and significance of current practices. In this way a study of the History of Education will disrupt the teacher's complacent acceptance of the pres ent, and will enable him to reconstruct his ideas in the light of the peculiar conditions out of which the educa tion of his times has sprung. Whenever historical records do not assist in such an analysis and synthesis of present day problems, they may be frankly dismissed from dis cassion. This conception of the subject, I have myself.

Book Synopsis The Development of High-School Curricula in the North Central States From 1860 to 1918 (Classic Reprint) by : John Elbert Stout
Download or read book The Development of High-School Curricula in the North Central States From 1860 to 1918 (Classic Reprint) written by John Elbert Stout and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Development of High-School Curricula in the North Central States From 1860 to 1918 The purpose of this study is to trace the development of high-school curricula in the North Central states from 1860 to 1900. An introductory chapter presents a brief account of the early high schools. It furnishes a background for a treatment of the development of curricula in the geographical area indicated in the title. The monograph is divided into three Parts. Parts I and II are devoted to the period 1860-1900. Part III covers the period 1900- 1918. Part I contains a treatment of subjects and their organization into curricula. Part II is devoted to the subject matter of the various fields and subjects. Part III deals with subjects and subject matter, a chapter being devoted to each. A few authorities are cited but tabulations and discussions are for the most part based upon data secured from original sources. These sources are chiefly published courses of study and textbooks. Some of the material was made available for use by the libraries of the University of Chicago, the University of Illinois, Oberlin College, and Cornell College. A considerable portion of it, however, was widely scattered, particularly the published courses of study, and had to be collected from the schools throughout the area. In selecting curricula for purposes of display and tabulation, an effort was made to secure those which would fairly represent prevailing practices. Small schools have somewhat less proportional representation than medium size and large ones for the reason that copies of curricula used in the small school have in many cases not been preserved. d104books for reference have been selected on the basis of their general use as shown by lists displayed in published courses of study. For purposes of tabulation, the period 1860-1900 has been divided into eight units of five years each. In Part III two units were selected, 1906-1910 and 1911-1918. This has been done to determine as accurately as possible the dates at which significant changes took place. In the treatment of subjects, organization of curricula and subject matter, the facts are presented as revealed by the sources consulted. No attempt has been made to give connected accounts of particular schools. Peculiarities of individual schools have been noted but conclusions deal with general practices and tendencies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teaching of History in Elementary Schools To-day the attention of everyone is fixed on the history that is being made from hour to hour. Our grasp of the ideals which we have formed in the past is being put to the test, and the course of the future is being determined. Patriotism is not a matter of discussion, but of action. The connection between the lessons which the citizens of Great Britain have learned from their knowledge of her history and the significance which they attach to the present momentous struggle is so close that we hope to be pardoned for publishing a book on the teaching of history even at such a time. It is true that, in the midst of such events, it is hard to view the past in its proper perspective and not to regard the whole course of history from the standpoint of the present issues. The book, however, was in the main written before the war, when it was possible to look back on the past and forward into the future with less emotion and more coldblooded judgment. What emboldens us to publish it now is that, reading our manuscript again in these days when interpretations of history are being tested in the fire, we see nothing to withdraw and little to alter. The nation has entered this war in no jingo spirit. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History in the Elementary Schools Methods, Courses of Study, Bibliographies The course of study outlined in the following pages is first of all practicable. It has been subjected to the test of teachers and supervisors in elementary schools of the country and the city, and of Normal Training Schools. It is the result of years of experience in public schools con ducted under ordinary conditions. It is easily adaptable to either graded or ungraded schools. While it provides for a complete course of study in history from the first to the eighth grades inclusive, it is so arranged that it may be used in connection with any rational plan of correlation of history with other subjects, especially with industrial training, literature and geog raphy. This is particularly true of the outlines for the first four grades. In ungraded schools and those only partially graded, doubtless the demands of the daily pro gram render the adoption of some scheme of combining and coordinating allied subjects an actual necessity. This course provides the desired core or basis for the corre lation of history, geography and literature and, in the primary grades, manual training, in a perfectly natural and interesting manner.
