One-Room
Country Schools From 1791, when the first school was established in what is now Wisconsin, to the 1960s, when consolidation was finally complete, the one-room school's history has been one of growth and change. One-Room Country Schools includes unique memories and shared recollections from the people who learned and taught in the one-room schools of Wisconsin. Jerry Apps
was born and raised on a central Wisconsin farm, a mile from
the Chain O'Lake one-room country school, which he attended for
eight years. Professor emeritus of education at the University
of Wisconsin–Madison, he devotes most of his time to writing
about rural America, especially the upper Midwest. Apps has also
written several education books including Teaching from the
Heart, Mastering the Teaching of Adults, and Study Skills
for Adults Returning to School. Among his many popular books
about Wisconsin's heritage, the most recent is Ringlingville
USA. |
