| Title |
Urbanization and Education in Ontario and Quebec, 1867-1914
|
| Abstract |
The author points out that urbanization was a significant cause of educational problems - problems both for the rural school and for the urban school - in Canada. The industrialization of Canada in the late nineteenth century, particularly Ontario and Quebec, was accompanied by rapid urban growth which changed population patterns and placed strains on both rural and urban schools. He argues that educators and politicians of the day seemed to be aware of what was referred to as the "rural school problem" and concentrated a great deal of energy (unsuccessfully as it turned out) in attempting to solve this dilemma. He concludes that they seemed unaware that urbanization was also creating an urban school problem every bit as serious.
