Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Bulletin of the California Teachers´ Association: Supplement to the Sierra Educational News; State Uniformity and State Publication of High School Textbooks; Brief and Reports by California High School Teachers´ Association, California High School Principals´ Convention, California Council of Education At the last session of the State Legislature (1915) a committee was appointed for the purpose of investigating the entire matter of state publication and distribution of high school textbooks. This committee, early in 1916, met in Los Angeles, with a committee representing the High School teachers of the state. An adjourned meeting was held at San Francisco in May. Arguments were presented on both sides of the question of State Uniformity and State Publication of High School Textbooks, the State Printer and his associates representing one side, and high school teachers, principals and superintendents the other. A supplementary brief is herewith submitted in final reply to the arguments presented by the proponents of State Uniformity and State Publication. This is made necessary in order to correct certain statements made by the proponents and to show the fallacy of certain of their conclusions, which are based upon mistaken premises. This Bulletin is the result of Committee work on the part of representatives of the California High School Principals Convention, the California High School Teachers Association, the California Council of Education, and the State Teachers Association. It is thus the expression of practically the entire teaching body of the state. The arguments advanced are characterized by breadth and scope, based upon knowledge and experience. Part I of the Bulletin concerns itself chiefly with the economic considerations of Uniformity; Part II deals mainly with the educational phases of State Uniformity. At its meeting in Fresno in January last, the High School Principals´ Convention went on record as against State Uniformity of High School Texts. A committee representing this convention has been working in conjunction with a committee appointed by the High School Teachers´ Association at its regular session of 1916 at Berkeley. This Association voted unanimously in favor of a resolution opposing. State Uniformity of High School Textbooks. The Chairman of this latter Committee, as Chairman of a Committee from the California Teachers Association, two years ago, instituted a state-wide investigation as to the attitude of the school people of the state regarding the question at issue. The replies were practically unanimous against state uniformity. It thus appears that the statements and conclusions here presented stand not only upon the arguments here outlined, but are backed by the opinions of the workers in the field, these opinions being based upon their experience, their observation and their intimate knowledge of the real needs of the schools. The articles published in the January and February issues of the Sierra Educational News, and reprinted in pamphlet form, have been in such demand by teachers and the public generally, both in California, and throughout the country, that the edition is entirely exhausted. This demand has made it seem wise to issue a large edition of this Bulletin. In issuing this Bulletin, under the auspices of the California Teachers Association, a charge of 10 cents per copy has been fixed, to defray cost of publication.
