Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The High School: A Study of Origins and Tendencies The high school is coming into its own. Secondary education has begun lately to assume a prominence and to have a recognized importance such as would be suggested by the priority of its development. As the painstaking historical survey in the following chapters makes clear, formal secondary education was developed ages before any need for organized elementary education arose. The latter came later as a necessity following the development of written language. Such a historical study of secondary education is of value because it is a study of a great development, an examination of secondary education as an important and interesting sociological phenomenon. It is, besides, a practical investigation of the varied applications of means to ends that have been developed in each of the epochs of secondary education. It presents a study of a pivotal institution and of its relations to different times and conditions. The aim toward which the present movement in education is tending is universal complete education within the limits of the public school period. This of course means that the number of high schools must be increased many times, and these high schools, in order to meet present and future social conditions, must evolve out of historic education. The present book may well serve as an aid in studying this great movement and in guiding it with historic judgment. To study a problem we must know its roots. The study thus becomes of immediate practical value to every teacher and parent of adolescents. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
