manual training  

Definition

  • Manual training garnered great appeal in America's public schools from 1870 to 1900. Although attempts at manual training in schools stretch back to Antebellum America, it was not until the need arose for a skilled workforce in the industrial economy that there was widespread support for such an educational reform.
