清末地方教育会述论——以宝山县为个案

Local Education Society of Late Qing Dynasty——Focusing on Baoshan County

地方教育社团的兴起是清末新政中一个显著的社会现象,由于此类组织多以普及初等教育为宗旨,其人事构成也以地方绅士为主体,这和学部成立后出台的一系列教育改革措施颇多契合,而地方绅士在筹募教育经费方面的效率和经验也为中央和地方各级政府所倚重。在劝学所制度推行后不久,地方教育团体被统一改组为教育会,作为劝学所教育行政的辅助机构。教育会在地方教育行政体制确立过程中所起到的作用及其在学务活动实践中累积的经验,是中国教育现代进程中一个值得关注的方面。

The rise of local education societies was an obvious social phenomenon in late Qing dynasty when it began to carry out its New Deal. A short time after the Learning Encouragement Agency System was carried out,local education societies was restructured as education association. The role education association has played in the establishment of local education executive system and experience in study related activities was worthy of attention.
