Description

Excerpt from Maryland Teachers Year Book: For the Information, Use and Guidance of Officials and Teachers of the Public Schools of the State of Marlyand; 1918-1919 For decades there has been among educators noticeable progress toward agreement as to aims in education, general acceptance of educa tional principles and standards, and a noticeable upward tendency toward improving teaching methods. Though the adjustment in education has been slow, it has been steady; and with a broader knowledge Of these principles, their demonstration and application have become much more' general. There has been a keen desire on the part of educational agencies to 'find out the demands which civilization makes on the individual, and then 'to have the products of education fit into its niches with the least friction. School adjustment has had in mind these demands, and school instruction has been planned to meet and satisfy them. Looking back over the achievements of the past century, it is fair to assume that educational procedure or development has been evolutionary rather than revolutionary. Here and there history records an occasional outbreak or departure from the ordinary which has resulted in a struggle for the supremacy of some idea in the world of education, and questions '0f belief have divided people in this or that section of the world's m-ap. But possibly in none Of these conflicts did the triumph or failure Of the belief which provoked it have a world-wide 1mport, nor did its fate signify a world-wide read justment of institutional life. We are now witnessing a war in which all the important nations Of the globe are involved. Unlike many previous struggles Of this character, this gigantic one can scarcely be called a commercial war. Whatever may have been the motive in its beginning, it is now quite clear that this contest is for the supremacy of a govern mental idea - a war between the forces-of autocracy and democracy. All people who believe in human freedom and self-government are interested, and if not already participating in the struggle, will probably do so. There can be but one result. The price to be paid for the victory in favor of equal rights to_all, will, of course, be enormous. Millions of men are giving their lives, countries are being devastated, commerce is being destroyed and. Millions of people are homeless and starving.
