Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Tenth Yearbook of the National Society for the Study of Education, Vol. 2: The Rural School as a Community Center This yearbook is planned to include accounts of actual experiments that have been tried in making the school a community center, so that other communities may learn of the possibilities and difficulties of putting into practice what has already been achieved in some of the most advanced communities. At the National Education Association meeting for 1902 (p. 373 of Proceedings) John Dewey discussed very ably the theoretical aspects of the problem as requested, but said: I do not feel that the philosophical aspect of the matter is the urgent or important one. The pressing thing, the significant thing, is really to make the school a social center; that is a matter of practice and not of theory. Just what to do in order to make the schoolhouse a center of full and adequate social service, to bring it completely into the current of social life - such are the matters I am sure which really deserve the attention of the public and occupy your own minds. The contributors to this volume are specialists who have made conspicuous success in organizing the various phases of rural education and community activity which they discuss. They have described in a concrete way the extent and character of the work carried on under their direction, giving methods employed, results secured, concrete incidents, difficulties, criticisms, suggestions, and comparison with similar work in other communities. The editor and secretary desire to express their appreciation of the work of the specialists who have provided the material, and of the assistance of others who co-operated in organizing the program, particularly Mr. D. J. Crosby of the United States Department of Agriculture. Part I of the Tenth Yearbook supplements this volume with a similar discussion of "The City School as a Community Center."
