Summary "Our Schools in War Time—and After" by Arthur D. Dean is a historical account likely written in the early 20th century, during a time of significant national mobilization during World War I. The book discusses the role and transformation of American schools in response to the demands of the war, advocating for education to serve both immediate national needs and long-term societal benefits. It provides a detailed examination of how education can and should align with the responsibilities of citizenship and national service, reflecting a broader philosophy of combining practical learning with community engagement. The opening of the book sets the stage by highlighting America's realization that the war effort extends beyond military might to the mobilization of national resources, including education. Dean emphasizes the importance of integrating war-related lessons and responsibilities within school curricula, suggesting a new relationship between education, state service, and the development of civic responsibility among youth. He critiques the historical approaches of other nations and argues for a constructive, forward-thinking strategy that utilizes the war as an opportunity to enhance and innovate educational practices.
