Chapter 3: 1911 - 1920 3:8. Education Programs that Support the Growth of Amateur Woodworking [in progress]

Sorting out the evolution of industrial arts education out is proving more difficult than I anticipated, but I am working on it. It's not until the latter 1920s that IA programs begin to feed into the creation of conditions in schools that promote things like homeworkshops -- there is actually the emergence of a homeworkshop movement. Because an apprenticeship system did not work successfully as a means of training boys for the trades, other methods were explored, including a program called manual training.
