Education of the Immigrant; Abstracts of Papers Read at a Public Conference (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781172456789)

"Education of the Immigrant" presents a fascinating snapshot of early 20th-century attitudes towards immigration and education in the United States. This collection comprises abstracts of papers delivered at a public conference organized by the North American Civic League for Immigrants, focusing on the New York-New Jersey region in 1913. The volume offers insights into the prevailing pedagogical and social theories concerning the assimilation of immigrants into American society. Discussions likely encompassed topics such as language acquisition, vocational training, and civic responsibility. This historical document offers valuable perspectives on the challenges and opportunities associated with immigrant education during a period of significant demographic change, and reveals much about the views of American society at that time.
