The Commissioners of Common was called, representedthe capstone of aseries of edu.aational by Governor CorneliusVan sass reforms proposed and inaugurated of and his successor, Ezra Butler. To improve the quality commisaioners attempted, inthe education in the state, the be used" words of their first report,"to dictate the books to vigorously in the local schools. Vermont's towns and villages resisted this attempt to usurptheir community'sprorogativ2s. The commissioners were forced torecognize that their efforts unacceptable to thepeople," had been "peculiarly obnoxious and the and five years later the statelegislature quietly' allowed school reform law of 1827 to lapse. We offer this vignette from Vermont'seducational heritage partly because it provides a strikingillustration of a tradition of local control of the schoolsin the state, a tradition we acknowledge and value. Yet the controversy over school texts in the 1820s also suggests amajor problem that these proceedings seek to address, namely,that the economics of a national publishing industryincreasingly dominated by conglomerates and the re;Atively tinysize of the market for text materials on Vermont combine toproduce a situation which "dictates" to the teacher who wants toteach about Vermont what he or she may use in the classroom.Essentially, a teacher must choose between either developingher own curricular materials from what can be a bewilderingvariety of sources or relying on a text like Edmund Fuller's Vermont:A History of the Green Mountain State published morethan thirty years ago. Even in the best of all possible worldsthis can be a cruel choice for a busy classroom teacher. Vermont's Heritage: A Working Conference forTeachers, Plans, Proposals, and Needs represents aneffort to discover a formula to solvesome athe problems of developingcurricular materials for Vermont's classrooms. Our formula was simplyto . bring together a distinguished group ofVermont scholars to talk about their work to an audienceof interested classroom teachers. We particularly asked the scholarsto address the question of how the material they werediscussing might effectively be taught. We then invited the classroomteachers to develop curricular units forclassroom use. We also asked both scholar-teachers and teacher-scholarsto work together to establish some initialguideposts to resources that are currently available for teachers interestedin exploring some aspects of Vermont'sheritage. Our reasoning was that scholars and teachers should workcooperatively to begin to -v- -vi- identify, suggest, anddevelop teaching materialsfor Vermont classrooms and that thesematerials should then beoffered to teachers all over thestate. We believe these proceedings contain many suggestionsfor teaching about the this marvelously heritage of idiosyncratic place calledVermont. We hope that this volume willbe useful; more than it will be used. that, we hope that Moreover, we should rememberas H. N. Muller III suggestsf that teaching Vermont's heritage is a "quest for truth"which involves us in "theattempt to find some universalitieswhich lifts the educationalprocess from the rote to the creative." As you read through the pages of this volume,think creatively about how thismaterial might be adapted use. for your own classroom Linda Morris's "MoreThan Just a Pretty Place" isa case in point. Although this unit about the local was developed to teach students history of SouthHero, many of the activities and objectivescould well be applied communities in the to teaching about other state. Similarly, both NancyMuller's "Limners andLandscapists: teaching unit Vermont Folk Artists" and the on "Vermont Folk Art"done by Mildred Ames, Diane Lyons, AnnJ. Smith, and John consulted by Ulrich, could be profitably any teacher whoproposes to take a group of students to theirlocal museum the historical or historical society. Both information providedby Muller and the living craft orientationof the teaching can be used to enhance unit, "Vermont Folk Art," of artifacts. students' perceptions ofthe world This collectionalso affirms the heritage that variety of Vermont's H.

For example, Elise to Reaves use Caggige, Nilah Cote andDoug archaeological evidencefrom the 12,000 Vermont's pastto suggest years of of the original a cultural approach to thestudy inhabitants of whatwe now call Vermont.

GINN &L COMPANY, PUBLISHERS d)e ^tl)ensettm pregg * 1903 THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, Two CoPtcS Received OCT :9 1903 ICLAS8 A-XXc No, UC{ t ^ ^ COPY B. Copyright, 1903, by EDWARD DAY COLLINS ALL RIGHTS RESERVED PREFACE The charm of romance surrounds the discovery, explo- ration, and settlement of Vermont. The early records of the state offer an exceptional field for the study of social groups placed in altogether primitive and almost isolated conditions ; while in political organization this commonwealth illustrates the development of a truly organic unity. The state was for fourteen years an independent republic, prosperous and well administered. This book is an attempt to portray the conditions of life in this state since its discovery by white men, and to indicate what the essential features of its social, eco- nomic, and political development have been. It is an attempt, furthermore, to do this in such a way as to furnish those who are placed under legal requirement to give instruction in the history of the state an oppor- tunity to comply with the spirit as well as with the letter of the law. Instruction in state history rests on a perfectly sound pedagogical and historical basis. It only demands that the same facilities be afforded in the way of texts, biblio- graphical aids, and statistical data, as are demanded in any other field of historical work, and that the most approved methods of study and teaching be followed.

That pleasure is the greater because of my belief that through the neglect of some of Vermont's historians as well as through the enter­ prise of others who, like myself, have had their own towns or group of individuals to serve and honor, the place of Windsor in Vermont's written history is not what the town deserves and because your invitation gives me an opportunity to show some forgotten parts of Windsor's claim to historic impor­ tance. Today I shall not describe the three celebrated conven­ tions held in this town in 1777, the first of which gave to the State its name, while the second and third created the State and gave to it its corporate existence and its first constitution; nor shall I touch upon the first session of Vermont's legislature held here in 1778, although upon these several events mainly hangs Windsor's fame as far as printed history is concerned. Nor shall I dwell upon Windsor as the first town of Vermont in culture and social life through the last decade of the eigh­ teenth century and the first quarter of the nineteenth, nor yet upon the extraordinary influence which the early artisans and inventors of this town have had upon industries in various parts of the world.
