Vocational Education

Marcella A Bartley, Fordham University

Abstract

One may safely predict that vocational training in some form will occupy a larger place in American. education in the future than it has occupied in the past; but among teachers as well as laymen there is a lack of agreement regarding the scope, character, and value of vocational education.The subject will be treated in this article with reference to the principles of both general and vocational education, and to the whole field of educational aims and values.To us in America the word democracy is the symbol for all that is best in common agreement, sentiment, and determination of a collective people--whether expressed in book or in conscience. The solidarity of understanding and approval and feeling constitutes the psychic basis of democracy and is the most real and durable element of the structure.
