Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Proceedings of the National Vocational Guidance Association Being the Fourth, 1915 Every human organization is subject to reformation, in fact must be revised and re-organized from time to time to insure its very existence. If such reformation is gradual, and comes mainly from vital influences within the organization, we call it evolution. If it comes abruptly, because of pressure from without, we call it revolution. The Public School System is no exception to this rule. If, for too long a period, it fails to re-adjust itself to the needs of the people it is sure to be acted upon by influences from without, and this action, if it assumes sufficient proportions, may constitute a real demand. Both industrial education and vocational guidance have been demanded by agencies outside of the school, but I think we may safely say that the vocational guidance movement today represents the most serious and conscious effort, on the part of American educators, to save the public school system from needless revolution by adequate readjustment and growth from within. In the past very largely, and in the present frequently, the schools take too seriously their selective function. That is to say it has been the business of the sixth grade to determine what children should have a seventh grade education; of the eighth grade to determine what children should have a high school education; of the high school to determine what pupils should go to college; and of the college to certify those who ought to. attempt work in the professional schools. In short, the business of the school at each step of the way has been to select those who are fit to "go on." The schools, until recently, have failed to note that every pupil is "going on" to some end and that the education of each individual should be such as would function in his own life experiences, no matter whether his destination be the factory or a profession. And so American educators have come to see that whatever may be the ultimate solution of the problems of industrial education.
