Industrial Arts
Also Manual Training and Technological Education. An important term, its 1904 origin date is credited to the Columbia University professor, Charles R. Richards,
Head of the Manual Training Department of Teachers College, part of Columbia University in New York. A colleague of John Dewey, Richards coined the term in an editorial in a 1904 issue of Manual Training Magazine. Arthur B Mays, The Problem of Industrial Education (NY: The Century Co, 1927) is one of several sources I will use to help sort these terms out.
Historically, these terms are important because, when they were in
fashion as everyday social vocabulary, each referred to specific
curricular programs in place in America's high schools and tech
schools. Click here for an extended discussion of Industrial Arts. See also Appendix
