A History Of Education In Crawford County, Ralph O. Borreson

Student Work

Eighty years have elapsed since that Saturday in November, 1856, when two pioneers worked hurriedly in the shade of Mason's Grove to complete a small log structure that was to be Crawford county's first school. In those eight decades the handful of pupils has grown to more than forty-five hundred; the one young inexperienced teacher has been replaced by two hundred and sixty well trained instructors and the primitive log schoolhouse given way to hundreds of buildings whose total value is near a million dollars. In 1856 the cost of the school was met by small, individual contributions from the …

An Experimental Study Of Student Personnel Guidance With Freshman Girls At Omaha Central High School, Irene Haskins Jensen

Student Work

During the twentieth century, because of the increase in the number of students in colleges, universities, and secondary schools, the shift in the responsibility for students from the home to the school, and the present-day emphasis upon personnel work, there has come a steady increase in the number of deans for women students and the importance of their function in the public eye. New deanships have been established in many colleges, universities, and secondary schools; since 1919 twenty-four courses have been organized in different institutions for the purpose of training deans; and the membership of the National Association of Deans …

Teachers And Social Leadership, Emil E. Samuelson

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of Education and Professional Studies

The argument that the schools can do a great deal to direct and facilitate social change seems valid when we consider the school's sphere of influence. Today a million teachers are entrusted with the task of educating more than 25,000,000 pupils. For twelve years these millions of boys and girls are under the direction of school teachers--certainly no other professional or civic group has an opportunity of like magnitude. If the teaching group should effectively unite upon a comprehensive program its influence on social change would be considerable.

The 1928 Salary Schedule Of The City Of Alameda And Its Effect Upon The Improvement Of Teachers In Service, James Mathews Bryan

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The improvement of the teaching staff is a problem that constantly confronts every school department. Writers of leading books on school administration consider this problem so important that they almost universally devote one or two chapters to its discussion. Dr. Ellwood F. Cubberley suggests that the addition of a few young, well-trained teachers to the staff each year is one way of improving the work of a whole department. In recent years, however, many school departments have been unable to add new strength to their school systems by the addition of new teachers, for the reason that there were no …
