Editor's Notes
- #2 Click on the button in the middle to preview. OR you can just click on the right arrow and advance one slide at a time.
- #3 EDCI 886 authors and concepts: Booker T. Washington died in 1915 and was buried at Tuskegee. W.E.B. DuBois organizes a Pan-African Congress in 1923, but spends most of the rest of this period teaching at Atlanta University. Other interesting facts: The Harlem Renaissance is in full swing.
- #4 Click on one or both musicians (red text) to listen to their music in YouTube. Fine arts influences: Music is swinging! The first jazz concert at Aeolian Hall in New York City is in 1925. Langston Hughes and Jean Toomer are publishing. Eugene O’Neil’s plays are on Broadway.
- #5 Political events and influences: World War I has just ended. Women are given the vote through the passage of the 19th Amendment. Native American tribal members are given citizenship. The 1920’s start off with Warren Harding who is replaced by Calvin Coolidge. Herbert Hoover is elected to office after Coolidge’s term.
- #6 The 19th Amendment gives women the right to vote. What do we notice about the clothing of the women? Are these poor women? Wealthy women? What about the man?
- #7 Economic influences and one additional Political event: Wall Street crashes in 1929 and a worldwide depression begins in 1930. Franklin Delano Roosevelt was elected President in 1933; he served until his death in office in 1945. As part of FDR’s “new deal”, the Tennessee Valley Authority was formed (a wholly government owned corporation), and the Civilian Conservation Corps provided work for millions out of work.
- #8 The Dust Bowl lasted from 1930 to 1936 (and in some areas until 1940). What would life in western Kansas have been like?
- #9 Who is the Civilian Conservation Corps benefiting?
- #10 Educational practices: During the 1920’s progressivism advanced, especially in specific areas of the country like Chicago and New York. William Heard Kilpatrick was at Teachers College (Columbia University, New York City) while John Dewey was at the University of Chicago. The Progressive Education Association became “the major institutional voice for child-centered pedagogy” (Urban & Wagoner, 2004, p. 246). Other Educational influences: B. F. Skinner pubishes “The Behavior of Organisms” (1938); Tennessee vs. John Scopes (the “monkey” trial) (1925); SAT administered for the first time (1926); Piaget publishes “The Child’s Conception of the World” (1929) (1) Source: http://www.cehd.umn.edu/History/Timeline/1920s.html,College of Education and Human Development, University of Minnesota
- #11 More educational influences: Franklin Bobbitt wrote “The Curriculum” in 1918. He is considered the “father” of the social efficiency movement. “For social efficiency educators, the multitrack comprehensive high school was an appropriate arena in which to implement their social engineering principles” (Urban & Wagoner, 2004, p. 235).
