Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Public Schools and the War The following pages represent an endeavor to study the effects of the war upon schools in other countries and especi ally in the United States. The first four chapters deal with some specific problems of the public schools in connection with the war and were written when the great world con ict was still going on. They show the revolutionary changes which the public schools have made in adjusting themselves to the needs of the war, and suggest the unmistakable tendencies of our educational reconstruction which is yet to come. The last two chapters were written whentthe great war had just come to an end. In them the author has tried to show, in the light of the experience of many school systems in this country, how American public education can be reorganized in order to meet the needs of the coming new world order. It is the author's hope that they may be of some value to the general discussion of educational reform. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis Administration and Educational Work of American Juvenile Reform Schools (Classic Reprint) by : David Snedden

This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Administration and Educational Work of American Juvenile Reform Schools The aim, then, of the present study, will be to describe as fully as circumstances permit the educational ideals, methods, and results of these institutions with a view to their more popular comprehension and use. The history of the evolution of the schools and also their development in foreign countries will be touched on only so far as these may prove to be helpful in realizing the above aim. Apart from the reports of the schools themselves and some material contained in reports of various state boards, it is interesting to observe that the great amount of writing on the general subject of juvenile reformato-ries is in the form of material for propaganda. From the beginning of the move ment in the closing years of the 18th century keen - sighted and philanthropic men and women have seen the need and possibilities of educational institutions of this type. In their speculations these people have often anticipated the main lines along which the schools have finally developed. Convinced of the rightness and feasibility of their cause, they have ad dressed themselves to converting the reluctant public to their point of view; and the result has been the amassing of books, articles, and proceedings, all designed to heighten interest in the subject but giving, unfortunately, little concrete material upon which the student may rely for actual record of achieve ments. The movement has been in the nature of a great mis sionary enterprise, always looking forward, and taking little account of ground actually covered. But at the present time much more is being done in the way of quantitative record of practice and results, and we may confidently expect these institutions and the educators working in them soon to pro duce many definite studies of educational value.

Download or read book Slaying Goliath written by Diane Ravitch and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2020-01-21 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From one of the foremost authorities on education in the United States, Slaying Goliath is an impassioned, inspiring look at the ways in which parents, teachers, and activists are successfully fighting back to defeat the forces that are trying to privatize America’s public schools. Diane Ravitch writes of a true grassroots movement sweeping the country, from cities and towns across America, a movement dedicated to protecting public schools from those who are funding privatization and who believe that America’s schools should be run like businesses and that children should be treated like customers or products. Slaying Goliath is about the power of democracy, about the dangers of plutocracy, and about the potential of ordinary people—armed like David with only a slingshot of ideas, energy, and dedication—to prevail against those who are trying to divert funding away from our historic system of democratically governed, nonsectarian public schools. Among the lessons learned from the global pandemic of 2020 is the importance of our public schools and their teachers and the fact that distance learning can never replace human interaction, the pesonal connection between teachers and students.

This book was released on 2016-10-06 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reorganization of the Public School System A little more than two decades ago Charles W. Eliot, convinced that the age at which the college graduate completes his course and begins supporting himself was too high, put the question, Can school programs be shortened and enriched? This query precipitated a discussion which, while ranging over the entire field of educational theory and practice, centered particularly upon the purpose and place of the common school, the high school, and the institutions of higher learning. This critical examination of the principal parts of the system has set in clearer light their characteristics and has led to the belief that a proper regard for the distinctive functions of each makes imperative a reorganization, or at least a readjustment, of the chief divisions of the system with respect to articulation, to internal organization, to grade span, and to defined purpose.

Book Synopsis Tinkering toward Utopia by : David B. TYACK
Download or read book Tinkering toward Utopia written by David B. TYACK and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-06-30 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over a century, Americans have translated their cultural anxieties and hopes into dramatic demands for educational reform. Although policy talk has sounded a millennial tone, the actual reforms have been gradual and incremental. Tinkering toward Utopia documents the dynamic tension between Americans' faith in education as a panacea and the moderate pace of change in educational practices. In this book, David Tyack and Larry Cuban explore some basic questions about the nature of educational reform. Why have Americans come to believe that schooling has regressed? Have educational reforms occurred in cycles, and if so, why? Why has it been so difficult to change the basic institutional patterns of schooling? What actually happened when reformers tried to reinvent schooling? Tyack and Cuban argue that the ahistorical nature of most current reform proposals magnifies defects and understates the difficulty of changing the system. Policy talk has alternated between lamentation and overconfidence. The authors suggest that reformers today need to focus on ways to help teachers improve instruction from the inside out instead of decreeing change by remote control, and that reformers must also keep in mind the democratic purposes that guide public education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Public-School System of the United States The material contained in this volume will consist of the most important of the data that I collected during a journey extending over a period of more than five months, made under the auspices of "The Forum," for the purpose of studying the public-school system of the United States. The facts presented in the first part of the present work do not vary materially from those presented in a series of articles recently published in that magazine. The matter contained in the second part, however, - the part devoted exclusively to the compositions written by the children and the drawings made by them, - appears here for the first time. In undertaking this journey it was my aim not only to learn what methods of instruction were commonly followed in our country, and the general condition of our schools, but also to investigate the manner in which the schools of different cities were managed.
