I f. TEACHING FOR JOBS
j Evidently "vocational training," so much in vogue in
"recent years, isn't all it hns been cracked up to be. Says
Dr. Chillies F. Thwing, a leading authority on education :
' "The methods of teaching a student how to make a living
through vocational courses have been unwise, extravagant
rnd ineffective. The. combes have been Very superficial.
They have generally lioen worthless for achieving the pur
poses which have inspired them." ,
This is corroborated in an article by Garrett P. Seiviss,
who says: "Similar testimony flows in from all sides. And
yet ambitious boards of education are harassing the tax
payers in towns and villages all over the country with, de
mands to countersign ever-growing bonds, in order that addi
t'ons may be made to the smattering curriculum, which is
Hiiid in one town to run from plumbing and bricklaying to
tru-pouring, baby .washing and the latest fad called
'charm'."
Ip colleges and high schools Ixilh there seems to be a
feeling lately that old-fashioned educators were not far off
lifter all. The newest idea in education is also the oldest.
Jt is tjie idea that the best way to prepare the child for life
is to give him a good general education: then he will he
better able to master any particular branch or knowledge or
occupation or job when the occasion arises. Give him the
' foundation, and he can build the superstructure himself.
There is one sound argument for vocational training, how
ever, which is not affected by this general criticism. The
( bjections to such training properly apply to the bright chil
dren and the average children. lUit for those who have no
cchool interest in "book learning," and no gift for it, and
whose age nevertheless holds them in school, vocatinna
twining is very useful. There is much value in it when not
carried to extremes.
