In addition there is a volume entitled "Wage Earning and Education, " which is a summary of the sections relating to industrial education. The final volume, which is entitled "The Cleveland School Survey...
Strona 78 - An accurate and incontestible diagnosis of one of these borderline cases can be satisfactorily made only after a thorough physical examination of the patient, knowledge of the family history, personal history, especially the story of his infancy and early childhood, school history and records, social and moral reactions, sexual habits, emotional stability, associates, interests, and the fullest inquiry as to his general information and practical knowledge.
Strona 76 - A last word for those persons who desire to employ the method. Any one can use it for his own personal satisfaction or to obtain an approximate evaluation of a child's intelligence; but for the results of this method to have a scientific value, it is absolutely necessary that the individual who uses it should have served an apprenticeship in a laboratory of pedagogy or possess a thorough practical knowledge of psychological experimentation.
Strona 76 - It is without doubt the most satisfactory and accurate method of determining a child's intelligence that we have, and so far superior to everything else which has been proposed that as yet there is nothing else to be considered.4 The value of the method lies both in the swiftness and the accuracy with which it works.
Strona 77 - Where we shall draw the line between the child whom we shall call a normal child with mental defects, and a subnormal or feebleminded child who is mentally defective, is a problem which can not be solved wholly within the realm of psychology.

Strona 103 - For this purpose the most satisfactory method is the appointment of a supervisor who will have authority to direct all the classes. To summarize : The abilities of the pupils should determine the type of teachers who would be selected for the different classes. There seems to be no reason why the teachers of the feebleminded should be given greater compensation than teachers of the regular grades. The organization of all classes should be under the direction of a supervisor. THE SPECIAL SCHOOL FOB...
Strona 112 - ... admission. Frequently provision for all applicants would nearly double the size of the institution. The children whose parents cannot realize the plight of the feebleminded need not be considered until provision has been made for those whose parents are willing to have them in an institution. To summarize: For the welfare of society all the feebleminded should be permanently segregated when they reach maturity. Cleveland is in a favorable position for the beginning of an institution. The outlay...
Strona 36 - Cleveland has adopted the wise method of educating together those who must live and work together. The success of the children is sufficient to warrant the extension of the opportunity to all who might profit by it.
