Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Facts on the Cost of Public Education and What They Mean The Research Department was added to the headquarters organization in response to a general demand from the members of the Association for an agency to supply current educational information. No source existed for supplying data for use in emergency situations. The U. S. Bureau of Education, the Government´s agency for supplying statistical information on education, has not been able to publish current data to meet emergency demands. Its staff includes the Commissioner and specialists of recognized ability, but although much good work has been done, funds have not been provided for extensive investigations by these experts. Moreover, the printing fund is so meager that comparatively few of the important reports can be published. Many of them lose their current value in the long delay before publication. This neglect of education on the part of the Government is most regrettable. It results from having the Bureau hidden away in the Department of the Interior. The Secretary of this Department having no special connection with education, and having many other bureaus and divisions in which he is interested, can hardly give more than passing attention to the needs of the Bureau of Education. Because of this situation, it seemed desirable for the National Education Association to establish a Research Department of its own. All feel that no wiser use of membership dues can be made than in maintaining an agency to carry on emergency research work. The Research Department was established in March, and has been in operation only a third of a year. During that time it has been carefully organized and is ready to render service to the members of the Association. This, the first bulletin of the Department, contains information of distinctive value. During the coming year smaller bulletins will be issued containing the latest information on current educational problems. The new Department seeks the support of the school people of the country in carrying on and in encouraging investigations of current educational problems. It works in close cooperation with other educational research agencies. At present there is much duplication of effort in collecting current educational information. At the same time essential data is often not available because of the lack of coordinated effort in carrying on investigations. The Research Department aims to reduce this duplication of effort and to bring about a concerted attack of some of our pressing educational problems. As it works to these ends it looks to the members of the Association for guidance and support. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
