Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the historical integration of manual training and industrial education into American schooling. It contextualizes the implementation of this system, adopted from Russia and Scandinavia, as a progressive reform, drawing a line between the domestic education that was prominent in the preindustrial era and the modern industrial economy of the time. The author highlights the distinction between the educational mission of manual training, which aimed at intellectual improvement, and industrial education, which focused on equipping students with specific trade skills, while acknowledging the overlap in purpose between the approaches. By providing a detailed comparative analysis of European and American methods of instruction, the book offers insights into the development of educational strategies to address the changing demands of the modern world.
