Children's Entertainment, Irma Schnierer

Future of Education

Children need entertainment as much as they need food, clothing and education. In fact, entertainment is part of education, and education and entertainment can be interlocked to their mutual advantage. The ideal would be to have entertaining education and educational entertainment. There are still many parents, teachers and other educationists who are not in favour of entertainment for children, irrespective of whether it is good or bad, because they think it distracts the children from their home and school duties. They are right in so far as entertainment by the cinema, radio and other agencies should not be allowed to …

Education For Livelihood., Leslie William Phillips

Future of Education

Every normal citizen is faced with the problem of acquiring some skill for which the community is prepared to reward him. He may, like the engineer, add years of special study to the normal years of schooling, or like the unskilled labourer learn on the job to use a pick and shovel, or like the artist live on a crust in the hope that society will eventually recognize his talent. [p.3]

It is obvious that educational planning must take special account of this problem of preparing for livelihood. The problem has many different facets. At what age should preparation commence? …

From School To Work : A Plea For Vocational Guidance., W.M O'Neil

Future of Education

Practically every young Australian leaving school goes to work and the choice of that work is a momentous decision for both the young person and his parents. [p.3]

Unfortunately, the business of choosing a career has become progressively more difficult. Three changes are mentioned to illustrate this. In the first place the increasing variety of modern occupations has created a larger field from which selection has to be made. In the second place, modern mechanized production has taken much of the skill of the old craftsman and put it into the machines. [p.5, ed]

In the third place, few occupations …

Education For Parenthood., Zoe Benjamin

Future of Education

It would be absurd to expect that all parents should be perfect; but with adequate facilities for education and training, we could have, in each generation, a steadily increasing number of men and women capable of carrying out their parental responsibilities with wisdom. [p.5]

The author then proceeds to offer advice to parents on assisting in the education of children at various age levels. This includes many topics, from how they spend their leisure time to making sure they meet their psychological needs.

Adult Education In Post-War Australia, Colin Robert Badger

Future of Education

It cannot be denied that we will need more and more adult education in post-war Australia. There are many encouraging signs that the people of Australia are becoming aware of the deficiencies of their educational systems, and that reform and reconstruction, long overdue, will be bought about by the steady pressure of public opinion. There is a strong demand for a general raising of the school leaving age, for revised and better curricula, for better professional training for teachers, and for far more liberal provision of school buildings and equipment. And there is, fortunately, an increasingly strong demand for adult …

Education For Democracy, John Dudley Gibbs Medley

Future of Education

The authors general thesis is that if we are serious about the need of planning for better world after the war the first thing to start thinking about is education. This is done by developing two definitions of two familiar words and then stating four general propositions. The first word is democracy which the author defines as a system of society in which a large majority of the citizens are not only qualified in mind and body to play a significant part in the common business of community, but actually have opportunities to do so. Secondly, education is defined as …

A Follow-Up Study Of One Hundred And Nine Delinquent Children In The San Joaquin County Junvenile Court, 1932-1933, Jack Ramsey Parsons

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The problem of juvenile delinquency is one that has received increasing emphasis during the past ten years. The rise and spread of the Coordinating Council Movement, the number of surveys made by public and private agencies on the subject, the increasing number of books published that deal with the problem and the new knowledge that has come from the Child Welfare Centers, the psychiatrists, and the psychologiste have all been noted and used by the various groups of interested citizens. Not only have we seen the rise of leisure time activities that are designed to meet the needs of the …
