Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Manual Training School, Comprising a Full Statement of Its Aims, Methods, and Results: With Figured Drawings of Shop Exercises in Woods and Metals This book really consists of four Parts; namely: - I. The Historical Introduction and Chap. XIV. II. The exposition of the methods and scope of the school, with full details as regards the manual elements, in Chaps. II., III., IV., and XV. III. The results of manual training, as shown by the records and testimony of graduates and others, in Chaps. V. and VI. IV. Discussions of the educational, social, and economic bearings of manual training from various standpoints and at various times, in Chaps. VII. to XIII. It is possible that this classification may be of value to those who come for suggestions in specific directions. To others the arrangement may appear illogical, and the repetitions unnecessary. In defence of the arrangement I must say that I have had in mind two things: first and foremost, the probable state of mind of the reader who comes to this book to learn of a matter of which he has heard much, but knows little. He wants facts, arguments, and speculations, according to the stage of his progress in finding out what manual training really is, and what it aims at. And secondly, the desirability of showing clearly the growth and progress of ideas in the development of the school. As to the occasional repetitions of statements and arguments, I will say that no one is likely to read the book through consecutively. Those who do me the honor to read it at all will read by topics and separate chapters, and being thus read I doubt if the repetitions will be found objectionable. Of necessity, much common material appears in every address. The earlier addresses were quite general in their treatment, and I have preferred to let them stand fairly complete. I trust no apology will be necessary for inserting addresses which, in one form or another, have already appeared in print.
