Abstract

Industrial Arts is a modern-day school subject which has grown rapidly in the last four decades. At the present time it holds a very important place in the curriculum of the modern school. Throughout the period of this growth, from its first adoption into the American public school system in 1880, until the present time, its objectives or aims have undergone continual change. During that early period after it was first accepted in the United States, its aims were of a practical nature and it was supposed to give vocational training. At the present time leaders are striving to have industrial arts considered as an important part of general education.
