'What the Schools Teach and Might Teach' is a seminal work authored by John Franklin Bobbitt, an influential educational theorist, published in 1918. In this book, Bobbitt presents his comprehensive analysis of the American education system and offers suggestions for its improvement.Bobbitt scrutinizes the existing curriculum and teaching methods prevalent in schools during his time, aiming to identify their strengths and weaknesses. He argues that the curriculum should be aligned with the practical needs of society, emphasizing the importance of teaching skills and knowledge that are directly applicable to real-world situations. Bobbitt’s approach is heavily influenced by the principles of efficiency and scientific management, which were prominent ideas in the early 20th century.One of the key concepts Bobbitt introduces is the 'scientific determination of educational objectives,' advocating for a systematic approach to curriculum development based on clear, measurable goals. He suggests that educators should focus on identifying the specific outcomes they aim to achieve through education and then design instruction accordingly.Moreover, Bobbitt discusses the role of vocational education in preparing students for the workforce, arguing that schools should offer practical training in addition to academic subjects. He also addresses broader issues such as the organization of schools, the training of teachers, and the involvement of the community in educational reform.Overall, 'What the Schools Teach and Might Teach' is a pioneering work that laid the groundwork for modern educational theory and practice. While some of Bobbitt’s ideas may seem dated or controversial by contemporary standards, his emphasis on the practical relevance of education and the importance of aligning curriculum with societal needs remains influential in the field of education.
