Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Establishing Industrial Schools
Tee purpose of this book is to suggest to a State, a city, or to any community some concrete and practical methods of determining What sort of industrial and trade schools it needs, what should be taught in them, and how to select and pre pare the instructors who are to do the teaching. It endeavors to be specific, to consider details, and to base its conclusions upon trade conditions as interpreted by the best generally accepted principles of industrial education.
It should not be confounded with any attempt to investigate and report on the educational systems now in existence or with suggestions for the modification of such systems, except as to the addition of trade instruction for men and women who are going to earn a living by a trade.
It seeks to offer suggestions that may be fol lowed by action, that may be used as the basis oi actual school establishment rather than as a basis for written report.
