О книге

Excerpt from Vocational Education

This book is devoted primarily to a discussion of current problems in vocational education. Space has not been given either to historical surveys or to descriptions of contemporary achievements. Vocational education as a conscious social enterprise constitutes, except in professional fields, a long new chapter in social and educational evolution. Its literature is still largely a literature of aspirations, of shadowy ideals, and of scattered and poorly supported experiments.

But the great social movements of our time have finally brought to us unmistakable demands for democratic and efficient systems of vocational education. Heretofore such school vocational education as we have had has been aristocratic - "for the leaders" it was claimed; and non-school vocational education has been haphazard, unorganized, and deplorably lacking in efficiency.

What we call the "contemporary movement for vocational education" is in stark simplicity the result of an enormous social demand for schools for the vocational education of the rank and file of workers. Schools of professional education for the training of leaders we have long had; but corporate effort has, until almost yesterday, balked at the problem of providing training schools for workers who toil in the unexalted callings of mine, farm, forest, shop, factory, shipboard, and home.

Hence the new movement must first of all be interpreted as an expansion - and a tremendous one - of the purposes of education by means of those specialized agencies which we collectively designate as schools.
