Excerpt from State Control of Instruction: A Study of Centralization in Public Education
Though puritanism was the consummate flower of English intellect,2 it must be remembered that the emigrants shared the prevailing opinions, prejudices, and modes of thinking of the English at that day.3 They came to reproduce, as far as circum stances would permit, their English life. They recognized class distinctions and first set about erecting colleges for the training of the aristocracy for the Church and the State.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book, a historical analysis of public education curriculum in the United States, reveals the evolving role of the state in shaping what children learn in elementary and secondary schools. The author traces the gradual shift from decentralized, community-driven education to the centralized, state-controlled system we have today. This transformation, driven by the need to provide equitable opportunities and promote national unity, has had a profound impact on the curriculum, with the state increasingly asserting its authority over what subjects are taught and how they are taught. The book offers a comprehensive examination of this process, exploring the legal, social, and educational factors that have contributed to the current state of control and examining the implications for education policy and practice.
