摘要:

Sometimes the higher criticism of vocational education overreaches itself and proves too much. Two writers in this issue of the magazine rise to the defense of the vocational schools of secondary grade, and both discuss constructively the problem of what kind of training is of most worth. Professor Paine's article, entitled “Educational Defeatism,” follows Dr. Prosser's challenge of some of the statements made by Charles A. Koepke in the special number ofOccupationsdevoted to “Analysis of Occupations” (June 1934). The vocational schools of Minnesota—and by implication, of the rest of the country—have been weighed by Professor Koepke and found wanting. In what have they been found wanting? It is alleged that, having failed to train for the performance of specific operations in factory work, the schools themselves have failed, at least to that extent. But according to Dr. Prosser, the conclusion may rightfully be regarded as anon sequitur.Let us leave the explanation to the trenchant and able pen of this acknowledged leader in the field of vocationa

摘要:

Professor Paine raises a protest against the attitude of those educators who say of specialized training for the skilled trades, “What's the use?” Though it is true that industrial methods and processes are rapidly changing, it does not follow that such training is useless. On the contrary, the need for intelligently organized and guided vocational programs for the preparation of skilled mechanics is greater than ever before. While these programs should be flexible, the training should not be, as some educators seem to think, for versatility rather than technical efficiency, but for technical efficiency as well as versatility. Insisting on this emphasis, Professor Paine's article is a counsel against despair—and do‐noth

摘要:

Fifty psychologists on the faculties of fifty colleges and universities throughout the country participated in the survey which Dr. Achilles reports in the following article. The resultant data bear directly on the perennial and important question, “Are college men vocationally motivated?” They also illuminate the influencing factors of vocational choice and the relationship of occupational aims or drives to such matters as selection of courses and quality of scholarship. While surveys of this character are necessarily somewhat superficial from the standpoint of the problems of any one individual, they are highly useful in furnishing data essential to the indication of changes and trends among the group of college students. This report is of special interest in relation to the articles on “Vitalizing Vocational Information in College” and “The Alleged Overpopulation of the College” in our Dec
