General Education For Living And The Value Of Work: Are They Compatible?, Noojin Walker

Perspectives (1969-1979)

Almost ten years ago the United States Commissioner of Education, Sidney Marland, introduced into the educational vocabulary a new expression - career education. Since then we, in higher education and especially liberal arts and general education, have given little thought to the concept. Because all of us know that vocationalism has no place in a liberal arts education. Consequently, career education also has no place. Yet over the last few years I have observed what appears to be an erosion. Some faculty have moved from hostility to indifference, to cautious support, and, in some cases, to active support of the …

Agls And General Education - Reflections By The President, A. J. Carlson

Perspectives (1969-1979)

The Association for General and Liberal Studies serves as "a forum for professional people concerned with undergraduate general and liberal education in each of the several divisions of the curriculum." At least, that is what the Bylaws indicate. But as I talk to people about the organization several more specific questions keep emerging: " What exactly is AGLS anyway?" "Why should I spend $10 a year to support AGLS?" " What is Interdisciplinary Perspectives?" These questions suggest that the Association has as its first problem - to use the current jargon - a very large "communication gap."

Perspectives For Moral Education In Higher Education, William P. Frost

Perspectives (1969-1979)

Much of the literature on moral education is of a psychological nature with an emphasis on the individual's responsibility to the challenges of the social environment. The valuable is perceived in terms of (1) the development of the person as (2) a member of society. These publications fail to identify perspectives according to which living and growing become meaningful. Paul Kurtz recognizes this shortcoming.

Many people in post-modern society -young and old - lack direction in their lives, a meaning or purpose. Often it is the " liberated" individuals who seem most vulnerable to a confusion of values and to …

Toward A New Synthesis In The Post-Disciplinary Era, Hoke L. Smith

Perspectives (1969-1979)

When we discuss the relationship between general education and work, our own semantic myths can easily trap us. General education, liberal education, and career education are labels which we have used to categorize bundles of learning experiences. Although frequently useful to simplify thought, the educational concepts behind these labels often represent illusory rather than actual goals and their meaning assumes a protoplasmic character, visible but elusive, constantly shifting in shape. Current attempts to define and clarify the relationships among general, career, and liberal education are hindered by the rapid educational evolution now occurring, as American postsecondary education moves from the …

Improving Humanities Education: Philosophy And Design, Ronald W. Carstens

Perspectives (1969-1979)

Both the Hebrew notion of the fall and the Greek concept of hubris have taught us that human endeavors are essentially acts of pride and possibly acts of arrogance. I suppose that a paper entitled "Improving Humanities Education" would be judged to be as at least impertinent in as much as it suggests that the teaching of the humanities can or ought to be improved. But I believe it is possible to improve the way that body of human intellectual and artistic study of man as man we call the humanities is addressed and actualized in the formal process of …

Cooperative Education - General Education: A New Synthesis?, John J. Romano

Perspectives (1969-1979)

When I first proposed this paper some months ago I had a number of specific purposes in mind. First, I'd grown interested in the development of a concept in American higher education which has been termed cooperative education. Secondly, I wondered about the linkages between cooperative education and what traditionally we have called general or liberal education. Thirdly, I wondered if the linkages between these two concepts were of recent origin or have they existed for a long time without formal recognition. Fourthly, I wondered if this " new synthesis" was something that could have a significant impact on the …

The Exploratory Year: A New Approach To The Four-Year Experience At Whittier College, Michael J. Mcbride

Perspectives (1969-1979)

Most students begin college with little idea about the field of study they will eventually pursue. Some have made a decision in this area , but often have only a vague notion of what is implied in such a decision. Yet, in both cases, the general pattern of liberal arts colleges is to put such students into a general studies program for two years consisting of required or strongly recommended courses. While students may gain a broad educational background, those with little idea about their future area of concentration must base a decision regarding the " major" on a brief …

Philosophy As Humanistic Model, Gary R. Sudano

Perspectives (1969-1979)

Science and philosophy both reach "straight into experience and arrange it with new meaning."² The novice in philosophy is struck by its attempts to provide answers to the essential questions of life. Indeed, he often becomes impatient with philosophical theories which seem to backtrack and are analytic rather than speculative, and philosophy instructors are careful to balance critical activities with answer-generating activities in the classroom. In most cases the student tends to pass lightly over the former in order to get to the meat of the latter. This is the first at traction of philosophy for students, if there …

Opinion Writing For Publication, Richard P. Bailey

Perspectives (1969-1979)

So, when the "writing crisis" hit the pedagogical fan, I was ready with an "innovative" method (so dear to the hearts of educators) for teaching writing. What had lurked in my mind for years pushed its way from subconscious to conscious - i.e ., the only completely satisfying reward for good writing is publication. Students who are given a better reason for writing than the bored approval of a graduate student and/or an arbitrary grade by a young instructor marking papers and time until a section of English Lit. 5,000 opens - students with appetites whetted by the dream of …
