hundred and fifteen years, a scientific group of the man released the report of the Committee of Ten. The report of the Committee of Ten is a detailed document on the spirit and substance of education. Twenty-five years later, in 1918, the Committee has been completely refuted by the cohesion report, Department of the Interior Office of Education in a proclamation entitled Fundamentals of Secondary Education. Although not quite frankly, the cardinal principles of a reaction and re-contested the report of the Executive Committee of Ten. Although the Committee has sought to empower students through education, led the broad principles for the boys and girls in the prescribed roles and points runners who would only perpetuate the status quo. This article deals with the polarity between the Committee and the Ten Cardinal Principles as a confrontation between the education of students and training students.
The Committee of Ten was the spirit “immature students,” (JM Taylor 1894, p. 194) and boys and girls an education that illuminates a lifetime. The Committee to do so by a continuing “work.” This “continuity of the study was” to develop in two ways. Firstly, the ‘students’ in-depth training in nine “major areas of knowledge are receiving “and its auxiliary sciences. (The Committee of Ten: Main Report, Section 46, 1893) Secondly, the committee know that a concern for student training and only a small proportion of students remain at the end of secondary education, at eighteen, was also the continuity of the study were types of primary school begins with the introduction to the nine most “important areas of knowledge.” For the Committee, it was important to develop “all the mental habits that need adult … at least before the age of fourteen.” (The Committee of Ten: Main Report, Section 16) Finally, the Committee believes that the education of ten students will open their minds to thought and knowledge. (The Committee of Ten: Main Report, Sections 46-50), the Committee believes that the development of intelligence has been the main goal of education.
In response to the opinion of the Committee on Education, the cardinal replied boldly, “Principles their protest against any plans of the Committee of Ten” formalism and sterility, “because it leads to” the call of divorce and the socio-political education. “(Fundamentals of Secondary Education Education, Chapter V – VII, 1918) The authors of the basic principles presented seven principles aimed at reorganizing intellectualism Education Committee “vocation” and “socio-political education. These seven principles are formalized in Cardinal to replace the development of academic skills training in the tasks of life, and moral values for boys and girls.
The removal of pedagogy and curriculum and students are thinking in the abstract and replace them with training in life skills practice, the authors hope to preserve the basic tenets and the current U.S. economy and democracy. A boy was secured with the “ability to support themselves and their dependents …” (Cardinal Principles of Secondary Education, Vocation Principle 4, Section 7) A girl should be equipped to be trained in Homemaking “, because … is of importance for the girls themselves and to others whose welfare directly in its hold.” (Cardinal Principles of Secondary Education, Training Principle 3, Worthy Members’ home, Section 6) with boys and girls to take their rightful place in society, it was expected that the U.S. economy would flourish.
Of equal importance in secondary education, has been the dumping of boys and girls in moral values. These values were expected to work through schools – principals, teachers and students, and this infusion of moral values is the main ingredient in a democratic society are taken, “to making ethical character.” (Cardinal Principles secondary education, the principle 7, the Ethics, § § 9 and 10) The author of the cardinal principles, without the seven cardinal principles of secondary education was frivolous and unnecessary, since it does not prepare boys and girls for “the purpose of life. (Ravitch, 2000. P. 129)
Although the Committee of Ten wanted intellectualization of the student, the cardinal principles of training of students has been set. The Committee of Ten found, such as education, students develop the thinking processes necessary to make the right decisions in adulthood. The authors of the cardinal principles instead of a contrary opinion. They believed that only through practical skills and values could Red “good attitude”, “sterling character” and “sound” ensures the proper functioning of adulthood. (Cardinal Principles of Secondary Education, Chapter I – XX)
The effects of the cardinal principles are integrated into the education systems of today. These are the skills and training of a student has earned the end of the school, which are of paramount importance, not the development of independence of thought. Given the turbulent times of today, it is doubtful that the basic tenets of four years to a U.S. company, secure and sustainable future is guaranteed.
