Title |
Theory, History, and Practice of Education : Fin de Siècle and a New Beginning
|
Abstract |
The author points out that the history and development of normal schools is traced through a summary of events that transpired in France, the United States, Britain, and Canada. He examines the roots of several systems of teacher training and identifies specific institutions (normal schools) that played an important role in bringing to McGill University key persons interested in the training of teachers. Much of the author's analysis is devoted to linking the diverse influences that culminated in the establishment of the McGill Normal School, the Macdonald College for Teachers, and the Macdonald Chair of Education. While the author outlines the history of McGill's role in teacher education in Quebec and Canada, he also gives a broad perspective on the history of normal schools in Europe and North America, and their influences on teacher education today.
