Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Industrial Education: Summary of Legislation Concerning Industrial Trial Education in Public Elementary and Secondary Schools The presentation of the material assembled in the following pages is due to the suggestion of the American Association for Labor Legislation, that a classified summary of the existing legislation relative to Industrial Education in public elementary and secondary schools, would be timely in this day of many earnest endeavors to adapt the work of our educational system both to the modem requirements for individual efficiency and to the demands of the new industrial order. My immediate aim therefore, has been to make a brief survey of the general statutory provisions which the various states are employing as instruments for the cultivation of the common school field to greater industrial productiveness. In general, it may be said that the trend of the development of our public school system is determined by the mutual reaction of two forces: first, a static public sentiment which would leave the existing order undisturbed; second, a progressive consciousness of the new needs of contemporary life which constantly endeavors to embody itself in legislation. A law of itself will not spontaneously develop high standards of educational efficiency; neither will such efficiency likely come through the unstimulated activity of public opinion, as this opinion expresses itself in the life of local communities. Localities and interests need energizing through that sort of progressive state legislation which recognizes in education a state and not merely a local responsibility. This phenomenon of the action and reaction of legislation and public opinion is to be observed at the present time to the best advantage in the recent movements to broaden the scope of typical American schools so as to include industrial training and education. The very clear purpose of the industrial education movement as it has come to affect the public school system, is to give, not that education which the local public sentiment of the present generation apparently wants, or is content with, but that education which the on-coming generation will undoubtedly need. The work of preparing this material for publication has been accomplished under the stress of many other duties. For the careful examination of the statutes and session laws, and for the verification of the statutory references, I am placed under indebtedness to the painstaking efforts of my assistants, Miss Leona Spoor and Miss Jessie Wilcox. It is not improbable, in view of the conditions of the work and the character of the sources of information, that omissions and errors may be discovered. The best that I can hope is that omissions, if any, are unimportant, and errors, if presented, are trivial. For any such, I alone am responsible.
