Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Subject-Matter and Administration of the Six-Three-Three Plan of Secondary Schools
Ever since the time of Socrates and the Sophists some body has - or some bodies have - constantly and consciously been seek ing to bring about modifications in the character and work of the schools. The age in which we live is in no wise unacquainted with persons of like zeal.
Classified somewhat loosely these reformers may be divided into two main groups: one group emphasizing changes in the external form or organization of schools; the other group stress ing the need of modifying the subject - matter, or content of study, and the internal administration of school work. While, how ever, there is this difference in emphasis the real aim of both divisions is identical, namely, how to make the schools serve more effectively the increasingly larger number of pupils who are at tending them or who can be led to attend them.
