You'd Like Teaching, Emil E. Samuelson, Harold Barto, Connie King, Ernest L. Muzzall, Reino Randall, Mary Simpson, Loron Sparks, Sarah Spurgeon

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of Education and Professional Studies

This book has two purposes; first, to give the facts about teaching; and second, to encourage high school students to consider teaching as a life work. It is, of course, an argument for teaching; however, it is not based on the assumption that all who read will promptly decide to become teachers. It frankly attempts to highlight the important personal qualities needed m teaching and to assist you to decide whether teaching is the right occupation for you. Here are the important fundamental questions: Is teaching interesting? What positions are open? Am I suited for teaching? How do I prepare …

Testing Practices, Purposes And Problems In Guidance Programs In California Secondary Schools ; A Survey Of 187 Selected High Schools, Laurence L. Belanger

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Man is reciprocal:

The function of man's education is concerned with the dynamics of the reciprocity between man as the in- individual and man as a social group. It becomes the specific responsibility of the school to provide valid experiences through which each student as an individual master the means, the methods, the understandings, the strategies, the philosophy requisite to successful operation of such harmonics as exist or possibly may exist between himself and the group of which he is or may be an integral part.

Better Than Nothing, But..., Lyman M. Partridge

While the majority of parents, teachers and administrators are fully aware of the importance of a program of hearing conservation in the schools and readily endorse one, I am convinced that they are not aware of the serious inadequacies of the method of testing the hearing ability of school children that is generally used throughout the state of Washington.

The Stuff Of Which Peace Is Made, A. J. Foy Cross

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of Education and Professional Studies

This isn't a discussion of whether we spend too much or too little for education. The true American patriot would spend his last dollar to insure our democracy as our way of life. Through armed force we have reffirmed our right to live in a democratic society, but only through exended public education can we be assured that our people will continue to want to live in a democracy and that thev will know how to live in the American way. America for these reasons can afford free public education at any cost. This is, rather than a discussion of …

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 …

History And Educational Philosophy Of Seventh-Day Adventist Secondary Schools, Carl William Shafer

Master's Theses

In introducing this subject, History and Educational Philosophy of Seventh-day Adventist Secondary Schools, it is important first that the need and purpose of Christian education be stated. If there is no real need or no real purpose, then Seventh-day Adventists have no right to sacrifice their means and energies in the establishing and maintaining of these secondary schools the world over.

Seventh-day Adventists have believed, from the beginning of their movement, that Christian education is the only answer to the education of the full man. All great educators agree that if education does what it should do, it develops the …

Some Phases Of Pioneer Education On The Kentucky Frontier With Emphasis On Nelson County, 1785-1860., Wenonah Maraman

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

"Kentucky owed most of her remarkable intellectual development at an early age in her history, to the fact that at the close of the Revolutionary War in 1781 many of the most intellectual and cultivated of officers and soldiers in that war from the states of Virginia, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Maryland - being unsettled in their homes and business by its great duration privations and calamities - sought new homes in the then richest land in the known world. Thus, the times and the country itself, the very life of hardship, self-denial, and self-dependence, combined to make a race …

The War And The Public Schools, Emil E. Samuelson

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of Education and Professional Studies

Now that the war is here, teachers and school administrators are being assailed by doubts and misgivings as to the importance of their day-by-day tasks. When a nation engages in war, it temporarily sets aside the more thoughtful and humane methods of improving human relationships and becomes absorbed in projecting a more immediate program for achieving an important national objective. Almost inevitably, public education in this country now faces stiff competition and struggle.
