The Mcguffey Readers, Louise Lively

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

The textbook, an important factor in public school education, is nowhere so wonderfully developed as in the United States. It occupies a more important position in our educational system than it does in the systems of many foreign countries. In fact, most of the teaching in our schools today revolves around the textbook - the cause of much criticism by many writers. They deplore the fact that both our teachers and pupils are dependent on textbooks.

Educational Problems In China, Wei Yoen Tu

Master's Theses

For muny centuries the Chinese had very little contact with outside world. Mountains, desert, and ocean were barriers which helped to protect the Chinese and their country from foreign invasions. Because of this isolation, China produced a civilization which is entirely different from others. The ancient Chinese civilization was so well established that it has survived; uninterrupted and not greatly changed to the present century. For a long time it was a great advantage to the Chinese to be shut away from the outside while the Occidentals were making steady progress. The progressive scientific knowledge and the genius of various …

The Administration Of A Child Care Center During The War Emergency, Laurence A. Farrar

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

As a teacher in the Stockton Public Schools, the writer became interested in the child-care program when he was asked to direct the newly formed center at the Lafayette school in Stockton on July 1, 1945. At this writing he served nearly two years in this center and has a modest feeling that possibly his experiences, observations and conclusions might be worth writing down, hence this thesis.

At the outset the author intended to confine his thesis to the Child-Care Center as a war emergency matter, feeling that child-care centers were more or less of recent origin, set up mainly …

Needs Of The In-Service Training Program, Robert E. Mcconnell

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of Education and Professional Studies

The Central Washington College of Education has had over a year of experience in serving public schools in the Washington state system of in-service training. This system was established by the State Board of Education in cooperation with the public higher institutions of learning in the spring of 1943. The principal function of the program is to provide a service to the schools for the refresher training of teachers returning to the profession during the war period. As a matter of fact, the service has been used not only by returning teachers, but also by present teachers who have been …
