61. Home Economics Archive: Research, Tradition And History of home economics offered some women a path to careers as teachers and governments to provide funding for home economics research and teaching, http://hearth.library.cornell.edu/h/hearth/about.html

See also: About the HEARTH Project Credits What is Home Economics? Other forerunners of home economics were the cooking schools that began coming into being in the 1870s. Women such as Maria Parloa and Fannie Farmer, both of whom taught at the famous Boston Cooking School, offered instruction in preparing healthful, low-cost meals. At first they provided training mainly for professional cooks, but over time they opened up their classes to an eager general public. Teachers during this period also published some of the first cookbooks directed at a large popular audience. Ellen Richards (1842-1911) was one of the major figures in the emergence of home economics as a profession. As a young woman who had grown up in modest circumstances in a small town in Massachusetts, she defied convention by leaving home to attend the newly founded Vassar College, from which she received a bachelor's and later a master's degree. She went on to be the first, and for many years the only, woman to earn a degree at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. After graduating, she taught at M.I.T. as an instructor of sanitary education. She was also active in public health and social reform efforts in the Boston area. Throughout her career, she emphasized the influence of environment on health and well-being. Beginning in 1899, Richards, along with Melvil Dewey and other educators and activists, organized a series of annual gatherings that became known as the Lake Placid Conferences, because the first of these, and several of the later ones, was held at Lake Placid, New York. Out of these conferences, a movement took shape that slowly defined itself and began pursuing specific goals. At the first conference, participants agreed on the term "home economics," which was held to be sufficiently broad to cover a wide range of concerns, and they began energetic and successful efforts to promote the teaching of home economics in secondary schools and in colleges and universities. (Attentive readers will notice that the conference proceedings, which are available through this web site, use unfamiliar spelling-a product of Dewey's spelling reform efforts.)

About this site Family and Consumer Education (formerly Home Economics Education) A UW graduate teaches home economics at Wisconsin High School, c. 1925 With their inclusion of courses on the teaching of home economics in the earliest curriculum, Caroline Hunt and Abby Marlatt Ruth Henderson teaching home economics at Wisconsin High School, c. 1949 Teacher training remained a popular track for home economics students. In fact, the first home economics Ph.D. was in the area of home economics education: Julia Frank Nofsker in 1932 for her thesis A Study of Home Economics Education in the Public High Schools of Wisconsin . This pedagogic focus and the large number of students studying to become teachers did not, however, lead quickly to the creation of a Home Economics Education Department. Rather, students combined their home economics courses with selected courses in the School of Education. The principal faculty member in the area from the 1920s through the 1950s was Ruth Henderson , who held a joint position in the Department of Home Economics and the School of Education, as well as at Wisconsin High School. Many of the home economics education students did their student teaching at Wisconsin High under her supervision.

First convened in December, 1995, the Jump$tart Coalition for Personal Financial Literacy determined that the average student who graduates from high school lacks basic skills in the management of personal financial affairs. Many are unable to balance a checkbook and most simply have no insight into the basic survival principles involved with earning, spending, saving and investing. Jump$tart Coalition Partners Help Those Affected by Hurricane Katrina! In a new Consumer Alert, Helping Victims of Hurricane Katrina: Your Guide to Giving Wisely, the Federal Trade Commission offers tips to help consumers give wisely. They include: Donate to recognized charities you have given to before. Give directly to the charity, not the solicitors for the charity. Do not provide personal or financial information-including your Social Security number or credit card and bank account numbers. Check out any charities before you donate. Contact the Better Business Bureaus's Wise Giving Alliance at www.give.org. Do not give or send cash. For security and tax record purposes, contribute by check or credit card. Write the official name of the charity on your check. You can contribute safely online through national charities. To see the good deeds of another Jump$tart partner

Jim Crow Gateway Lesson Plans Simulations Narratives ... Let Us Know! Eyewitness to Jim Crow Annie Zachery Remembers "Integration was hard on the black children, because the white teachers categorized the black children as being hard to learn and having bad behavioral problems." [Living in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, where she was born in 1916, Ms. Annie R. Zachery reflects on her life from being in a sharecropping family, to going to college, to becoming a teacher and settling back in the community in which she was raised.] To the student: As you read this first person account of life under Jim Crow, ponder the following: What hardships did Ms. Zachery endure as a child of sharecroppers? What were the positives, if any, of living in the type of community of Ms. Zachery's youth? Students today are as concerned with financing their education as Ms. Zachery was when she was young. What characteristics or personality traits of hers would you choose to emulate as you make decisions that affect your education future? What does the difficulty Ms. Zachery had as a teacher at Walter Hill Elementary School tell you about the social climate of the day?

Part two: Reorienting training programmes Chapter 3: Curriculum development and training Part two: Reorienting training programmes Chapter 3: Curriculum development and training We have seen in previous sections the need to: This section focuses on some of the applied and practical aspects of curricular reorientation, and proposes some essential elements that will form the basis for a methodology to introduce environmental (especially agricultural) and gender-related subject matter into conventional home economics curricula Naturally, curricula will vary depending upon the emerging conditions and issues in each different country. To this extent, curricular content, structure and delivery should be need-based, and reflect the opportunities and constraints of rural households in each country. 3.1 Formal and Informal Approaches to Training Since the time of the Greeks, there have been two fundamentally different approaches to pedagogy: one is based upon telling people what they should know; the other (the Socratic approach) assumes that people have a fair amount of knowledge that can be made explicit and effective through a process of questioning. The two approaches have manifested themselves respectively as traditional educational pedagogy and as "progressive education." Progressive education is oriented toward the process of learning, and in recent years has become favored as the best way of teaching adults (Seltzer 1980). Several philosophers and educational theorists, notably Mahatma Gandhi, Paolo Freire, A. T. Mosher and Mohammed Anisur Rahman, have developed effective nonformal approaches to training and social reform that have been widely tested and adopted in developing countries.
