GYMNASIA The Gymnasia arose out of the humanistic movement of the sixteenth century. The first general system of schools which provided for the Gymnasia was that of Saxony , formulated in 1528 , but without providing for Greek in such schools until a later date. Afterwards, both Greek and Latin were included, and the Latin and Greek languages formed the foundation of the teaching and studying of the Gymnasia, which was a nine-year course. REALGYMNASIA In Prussia , the Realgymnasia gave a nine-year course, with Latin, but no Greek. REALSCHULEN The Realschulen appeared in the eighteenth century, as a six-year course. Hecker introduced the prototypical Realschulen in 1747 . The Realschulen, or burgher school (Bürgerschulen), was simply a higher elementary or intermediate school. OTHER METHODS In Prussia , the Progymnasia were similar schools of six or seven year courses. The Realprogymnasia was of six or seven years' length. The Oberrschulen offered a nine-year course with neither Greek nor Latin. MODERN LANGUAGES Early in the twentieth century, the introduction of French and English as elective languages brought about the greatest change since the introduction of the Realschulen in the eighteenth century. Students tended to ignore the Greek Language . GYMNASIA FOR GIRLS Early in the twentieth century, schools for girls increased in numbers. WORKS
The rise of girl's Gymnasiums is due mainly to the influx of feminist ideals in the twentieth century. |
