Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Toronto Normal School Jubilee Celebration: October 31st, November 1st and 2nd 1897; Biographical Sketches and Names of Successful Students 1847 to 1875 The Toronto Normal School was instituted by the late Dr. Ryerson for the purpose of training teachers for Public School work. In fact, it was an integral part of the system of education which he recommended after having visited the schools of Europe and the United States, under the direction of the Government, with a view to legislation of a comprehensive character for the schools of Ontario. An experience of fifty years in the development of this system (the Normal School included) has clearly shown the wisdom of his conclusions and its adaptation to the social and municipal institutions of the country. There was no feature of the system of education founded by Dr. Ryerson which had a more important bearing upon Elementary and High School education than the establishment of the Toronto Normal School. For many years it was the only educational seminary at which the training, qualifying a man or woman for the profession of teaching could be obtained. It was always a Normal School, even in the modern sense of the term, for every subject which the student was expected to master was also considered in a pedagogical sense. Much can be said in favor of this early feature of our Normal School, and no doubt, were it not that the High Schools of Ontario attained to such pre-eminence, the literary courses, originally established in the Normal School, would have been continued to this day. During the last half-century, a great multitude of students graduated from the Toronto Normal School, all of whom felt that they were indebted to its curriculum and staff for a certain mental stimulus which was of great value to them in after life. And so it occurred to some of the earlier students that an opportunity should be given them of doing honor in some public way to their Alma Mater. Out of this desire laudable and kindly in the highest degree, arose the Jubilee Celebration, which it is the object of this volume to record.
