While recognizing the importance of history and the social sciences as contributing to citizenship education, the Committee's report recognized that citizenship education is something more than mastery of separate disciplines.

  • One Nation, One Flag, One Language: the Grand Army of the Republic and the Patriotic Instruction Movement in Indiana
    One Nation, One Flag, One Language: The Grand Army of the Republic and the Patriotic Instruction Movement in Indiana Nicholas W. Sacco The push for compulsory school attendance and free public education in the United States gained considerable traction in the years after the American Civil War (1861-865). Prior to the war, only two states—Massachusetts and New York—made school attendance compulsory. Postwar changes to the nation's economy through industrial capitalism, however, prompted vocal demands from politicians and educators for government-funded public schools to train students for specialized work in manufacturing, business, banking, and engineering. Public schools also played an increasingly significant role in the teaching of history, patriotism, and democratic citizenship during a period in which the question of who, exactly, was an American citizen was in flux. By 1902 every northern state mandated compulsory school attendance, and by 1918 every state in the country called for the same requirements. The state of Indiana was relatively late compared to other northern states in reforming its public education system, but it enthusiastically passed a series of laws at the turn of the century that aimed to strengthen the state's public schools. By 1897 all children in Indiana between eight and fourteen years old were required to attend school at least twelve weeks a year, while another law in 1907 set the minimum annual salary of $450 for all public school teachers. The Hoosier state professionalized its teaching force, while students received a well-rounded education that included studies in math, science, history, civics, literature, and vocational training.1 Indiana's zeal for teaching its students "patriotic instruction" became well-known in education circles throughout the country by 1910.2 Curricular guides given to Hoosier teachers provided instructions for raising the American flag, saying the Pledge of Allegiance, and a list of recommended history textbooks.

Large-scale assessments are designed to determine quality in education by measuring student achievement. A connection exists between the standards, teachers, and assessments that form a system of accountability within education. State and national accountability policies place value in certain educational fields, thereby preferring some while excluding others. As a result, accountability systems influence the field of social studies in several unanticipated ways. Consequential validity suggests that assessments should include value implications and relevance (Messick, 1989). While assessment research examines the disciplines of mathematics, science, and language arts in a more holistic manner, the few social studies assessments are often divided among the field’s various disciplines. The purpose of social studies, and its development of standards, is firmly linked to the current state of disunity within the social studies field.

  • John Allison, the Elder Chapter 5
    John Allison, the Elder Chapter 5: The Fifth Generation General History of the Fifth Generation This generation would be the great great great grandchildren of John Allison the Elder, each representing 1/16th of the blood line of John the Elder. The oldest of this generation was born circa 1785 and the last of the 5th generation born circa 1860's. When John DeFrance (AABAA) was born, George Washington had not yet became President. Almost all of this generation were born before the Civil War, but most lived through this period. The main movement of Allison Family started in Pennsylvania and moved westward. Very few descendants moved in a southerly direction. One group that resided in southeast Kentucky along with a few residences of Virginia, fought for the South, but large majority lived in the North and fought for the North. The Fifth Generation * V-1. John DeFrance: AABAA (John, I-1; James, II-1; Anna, III-2: John, IV-1) John was born circa 1785 and died young. * V-2.
