Sinopsis
Excerpt from The Principles of School Organization: A Comparative Study Chiefly Based on the Systems of the United States, England, Germany and France
Seventh: Centralized administration relieves school officers of the continual struggle over curriculum and courses of study to which such a large proportion of their time must otherwise be given, and leaves them free to carry on the great work of teaching and to develop methods of instruction to a high order of perfection. This is substantially illustrated in Germany. Nowhere is there a more intelligent and active body of teachers than in the various German states. Germany has been the great home of pedagogy, whither, only a few years ago, all students from the United States who wished to study education were obliged to go. We may fairly ask the question whether the great development in methods of education which has taken place in Germany would have produced so many valuable re sults if the teachers, and particularly the principals of schools, had been obliged to consume a large part of their time in the discussion of the curriculum and of purely administrative ques tions.

Excerpt from The Principles of School Organization: A Comparative Study Chiefly Based on the Systems of the United States, England, Germany and France
There is a mass of descriptive and statistical material about the great school systems of modern culture states, the descriptions being generally rather hard of comprehension for the uninitiated reader, the statistics meaning anything or nothing according to the methodology and teleology of their manipulation. So far as the mathematics and history of education have been laid under tribute for this study the best available sources have been employed.
Here and there we have in pedagogical literature references to the influence of the pedagogical development of one historical nation upon another, often, too, something in the nature of a comparison of this national system with that or the other. For the most part these references may be assigned to two, and only two, sources, having also two quite distinct purposes. The first of these is the genial enthusiasm of some youthful pedagogical cosmopolite who having made, generally in Germany, the discovery for which the world had long been waiting, of a more perfect, nay the only perfect pedagogical revelation, holds up the foreign model before the eyes of his countrymen with much the same spirit as that with which the Crusader pressed the cross upon the attention of the Turk. To a more or less fanatical Chauvinism we owe the other common class of allusions to foreign schools which are made for the purpose of showing how immeasurably inferior they are to the native product.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complex world of school organization, drawing comparisons between the systems of the United States, England, Germany, and France. The author, deeply engaged in the topic, examines the historical evolution of educational practices, noting how education has shifted from a privilege of the elite to a necessity for all. This shift, the book argues, is linked to broader social and political changes, such as the rise of democracy and the influence of the Reformation. The book explores the ongoing debate between centralized and decentralized models of school administration. It highlights the merits of each approach, acknowledging that while uniformity and expert leadership are hallmarks of centralized systems, decentralized systems encourage local adaptation and community involvement. The author also examines the role of the family, community, church, and state in shaping educational institutions, ultimately presenting a nuanced understanding of how these factors interplay in achieving educational goals. Through its careful analysis of historical and contemporary practices, this book offers valuable insights into the principles that underpin effective school organization, underscoring the enduring importance of balancing competing needs to create a truly beneficial system of education. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
