Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Chairs of Pedagogies in Our Universities Among the interesting phenomena connected with American education of the last thirty years none are more striking than the expansion of the college and the change in the character of its work. A generation ago the college offered to its students only one prescribed course of study in which Classics and Mathematics formed the chief constituents. These subjects were supplemented by a little elementary instruction in natural science and a taste of moral science and history. There was no recognition of the desirability of consulting different tastes among the students, or of encouraging devotion to any branches of study except those which formed the staples of the curriculum. So many hours each week were devoted in the Freshman year to Latin, so many to Greek, so many to Mathematics. The Sophomore year was a continuation of the Freshman year. In the Junior year a little attention was given to History, Physics and possibly Chemistry; while in the Senior year a few hours were given to Political Economy, Philosophy, Ethics and Constitutional Law. All the students took the same number of hours in each subject. The present curriculum is very different from the former in all institutions, which have been enabled by the possession of pecuniary resources to advance. The great difference may be made clear by comparing the present curriculum of the institution, which has carried through these changes most consistently with the one in existence a generation ago.
