Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A School Building Program for the City of Winona, Minnesota The significance of Professor Neale´s report on the building survey for the city of Winona, which is published herewith, inheres not merely in the fact that it lays out a statesman-like building program for that city; but it lies rather in the fact that a big educational problem is approached by scientific methods, and a thoroughgoing solution is proposed in the light of results which these methods reveal. In general, building problems in cities of every size have been approached more or less by the rule-of-thumb method, without a complete analysis of all the factors upon which a rational building program can be based. Such an analysis Professor Neale has undertaken in the case of Winona and with such success that the Board of Education has adopted a building program based on his proposed solution as given in this report. This study is also significant because of the suggestion which it carries for the solution of other educational problems confronting communities throughout the country. An adequate school plant is but one of the problems which boards of education are required to meet. Problems of curriculum, of administration, of instruction, and of teaching personnel are in general of more educational significance than are buildings, and lend themselves quite as easily to methods of scientific analysis and study. More and more will scientific methods be used to investigate such problems; more and more will experts be enlisted for such specialized study, and in ever increasing numbers public school officials are themselves securing adequate training for such work and organizing within their school systems agencies by which these studies can be carried on. This report is significant in another sense because it represents a cooperative endeavor between the school authorities of the city of Winona and the University of Minnesota. The request for this survey was made by the Board of Education of Winona to the College of Education of the University of Minnesota. In making the request, the Board of Education agreed to pay for the time of Professor Neale and such other persons as would be required to carry the survey through and to meet all expenses, incident to the making of the survey.
