Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Report of Associate Professor Austin Craig: On a Research Trip to the United States, December 15th, 1914, to May 5th, 1915 The Honorable, The Board of Regents (Through the Dean of the College of Liberal Arts and the President), University of the Philippines. Gentlemen: - I have the honor, in reporting on my recent absence from the Philippines (December 15th, 1914, to May 5th, 1915) under your leave, to broaden the report by allusion to some of the present possibilities for the History Department and with suggestions of how it is proposed to make the most of them. A copy for each member should save all encroachment upon the time of your meeting, while its printed form I hope may make this sizable communication less tiresome reading than one of half of its length submitted in typewriting. The courses planned to be covered by the students during the last semester were satisfactorily completed, though the change to giving a month´s help at the start prevented that entire self-dependence which was originally contemplated. Compilations from the students´ papers are to be made available for the teachers of the Archipelago through monthly installments published in the magazine "Philippine Education" throughout the coming year. Thus American history and civil government as seen through trained Filipino eyes can become the basis for public school instruction in those branches which mean so much for popular government. Each series of articles is to appear under the names of the students who contributed toward its preparation, and the resulting pride for them and the spirit of emulation which will be aroused among other Filipino students perhaps may be considered even of more importance than the mere knowledge gained. Especial care has been taken to guard against the evils which result from the exaltation of things foreign before the young. The artificial products of the earlier Europeanized schools in Japan, China, and India warn against allowing Filipinos to become educationally exotics, with all the weakness in character that implies in humans as much as among members of the vegetable kingdom.
