Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Pedagogical Seminary, Vol. 12: A Quarterly International Record of Educational Literature, Institutions and Progress The educational value of the different high school studies has received considerable attention in recent years, not only in this country but also, and even more so, in Germany. This question is of special interest when the importance and the pre-eminence of certain school studies is questioned with the idea that they may, in many cases, cost more than they are worth. The storm has been raging especially about the classic languages, which have had a pre-eminent place in secondary curricula ever since the days of Sturm. Until quite recent years no one was considered cultured unless he had studied Latin, and possibly Greek, a certain number of years, and to those two languages was given the first place in the programmes of study. With the advance of modern science and the modern languages, their place gradually has been disputed until now, when they are slowly and reluctantly taking their place among other subjects of study, and, like other studies, the student pursues them when they are necessary, or helpful, or interesting in the line of work he is pursuing. In connection with the discussion of recent years it is interesting to see the results of studies that have been made to ascertain what has been accomplished in the study of the classical languages in the secondary schools. Prof. Nelson G. McCrea recently tabulated the results of the Latin papers of the College Entrance Examination Board for the first three years. He read 8,896 papers but reports only those that received a rating of from 60-100 per cent. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
