Excerpt from Industrial Education in the Elementary School The history of the teaching of manual training is one of the most interesting chapters in the evolution of the elementary school. Manual work was introduced into the curriculum at the beginning of the present period of educational unrest; and, because it had no fixed traditions to hamper its progress, responded most fully to modem educational principles. When manual training was inaugurated in our schools, the public supposed it was to serve a practical industrial purpose; but the laity had not reckoned with the schoolmaster and school tradition. The teacher proceeded to make manual work a mental discipline rather than a practical utility, - a fallacious distinction long held by his craft. The new study was made into a set of formal exercises, rather than a group of interesting problems. The chief emphasis was laid on the practice of technique. The need of the child to express himself in manual activities that fulfill his desires was completely subordinated if not overlooked.

Excerpt from Elementary Industrial Arts In spite of the fact that industry has ever been a most important factor in our national life, it is only within the past few years that instruction in it has been given an amount of emphasis at all commensurate with social demands. New ideas regarding the aims and purposes of education are to-day bringing about long needed changes in subject matter and in the methods of its presenta tion, while school courses are being reconstructed that they may more effectively meet the demands being made upon them from the outside.

Excerpt from The Industrial Arts in Elementary Education In the preparation of this book the authors have had in mind two classes of people. (i) teachers engaged in instruction in the elementary grades. And (2) students in normal schools and colleges who are pre paring to become elementary teachers. In the first instance the book will be a reference work, and in the second, a text to be used in elementary industrial arts courses. Under the general term industrial arts we include all of those phases of handwork and industry study commonly known as manual training, manual arts. Drawing. Construction work. Art work. Etc. Our chief aim is a presentation of the study of indus trial processes and materials, and all handwork introduced will be chosen with a view to giving familiarity with these materials and to making clearer processes through participation in the activities.

Excerpt from The Elementary Industrial School of Cleveland, Ohio In his report for the year 1908, Dr. Andrew S. Draper, commissioner of education of the State of New York, established the fact that current school systems still confine themselves too exclusively to preparation for professional life; that, even where they have consented to consider the claims of commerce and of certain technical pursuits, the aim lies toward preparation for positions of management and control; and that neither in the elementary schools nor elsewhere do the trades and the industrial life of the people receive adequate attention. It is gratifying to note that this inadequacy is more and more keenly felt and that efforts to supplement it are becoming more and more pronounced among public-spirited citizens, among employers and workers, parents and educational leaders. We meet these efforts in the form of private and public trade schools, apprentice schools, continuation schools, industrial schools, and in a variety of provisions for so-called vocational guidance; most hopefully, however, in distinct propositions and experiments looking to a reorganization of the public school with a view of meeting this need without loss, but rather with gain, to other vocational interests and to general liberal culture. Among these experiments, the Elementary Industrial School of Cleveland challenges more than passing interest, not so much because of vastness of plan or results, but because of the direct bearing of its work upon certain fundamental shortcomings and traditional onesidednesses of current systems. Its organization was hastened by certain statistical data collated under the direction of Supt. W. H. Elson.

Excerpt from Elementary Industrial School: Report of Plans, Course of Study and a Brief Summary of Results, 1910 In his report for 1908, the Commissioner of Education establishes the fact that' current school systems confine themselves almost wholly to preparation for professional life; that even where they have consented to consider the claims of commerce and of certain technical pursuits, the aim lies toward quasi-professional superiority in these matters, toward preparation for positions of management and control, and that neither in the elementary schools nor else where do the trades and the industrial life of the people receive ade quate attention.

Excerpt from The Place of Industries in Elementary Education The difficulties that beset the way of those interested in elementary education are many. They have called forth much discussion during the past decade, and already a great advance has been made. If this book contributes to the general movement it will doubtless be due to the fact that it suggests ways of bringing vital relations forces and materials which, hitherto, have remained almost untouched. The study here made is based upon several years practical experience, during which many tentative efforts were made along lines marked out in this book, as well as upon research work in the Departments of Education and Sociology in the University of Chicago. To the men and women of these departments, from whom I have received much in the way of guidance and inspiration, I am greatly indebted. They all, I am sure, will recognize in the discussion of the stages of mental development the influence of Professor Dewey; and in the interpretation of primitive activities, that of Professor W. I. Thomas. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.

Excerpt from Fine and Industrial Arts, in Elementary Schools During the past few years the amount of new subject matter relating to the fine and industrial arts in elementary schools has rapidly increased. The organization of this material into a form involving definite progression and reasonable standards of attainment at various stages has not wholly kept pace with its introduction. The considerations here presented regarding a scheme for such organization have taken shape in the course of numerous conferences with those interested in the subject, and as a result of investigations which were suggested by these discussions.
