Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Outlines for Thirty-Six Lessons in Agriculture, for Use in the Seventh or Eighth Grade To Boards of Education, Superintendents and Teachers: Agriculture is not entirely a new subject for study. Neither is it a stranger in the Iowa public school system, for two hundred and four schools enrolling two thousand six hundred and eighty-one pupils in such courses report work in agriculture for the past year. The Thirty-fifth General Assembly established agriculture in the courses of study for all public schools. The wisdom of this action is clear to all. Whatever the views held concerning the aims of education, agriculture can be most profitably utilized in promoting them. Moreover, agriculture interests more people than any other science. Practically all other sciences contribute to it. Agriculture is most wonderful in extent, most interesting in character, and most useful in its economic relations. Experience thus far with teaching agriculture in the schools shows that the educational values resulting from this work are as permanent as those from any other subject, whether in one or more units, while the economic value is shown in actual results on the home farms and in the redirecting of the lives of young people. Whatever obstacles confront us in shortage of teachers, or reluctance to depart from traditional lines of school work, time will speedily remedy. The teacher supply will increase, and actual re suits from work sincerely and sympathetically undertaken will overcome inertia and prejudice. For the present a minimum of six weeks of special preparation is expected of all teachers giving instruction under this plan. These outlines were prepared, the lists of apparatus compiled and tested out, and the drawings made by Prof. W. H. Davis, instructor in agriculture in Iowa State Teachers´ College. This course of study is a detailed plan of work for grade schools only. It is expected that thirty-six lessons will be given, each ninety minutes in length. A common practice will be to take the time after recess in the afternoon one day per week. Both boys and girls will take the work. Like all courses of study this outline may need some adaptations to meet local conditions. Suggestions for improvement from teachers and others will be gladly received.
