Assignment 1According to Gutek (1995), the church in the medieval period exercised a virtual dominance of formal education through direct or indirect means.

Since the church has a virtual monopoly over formal education, there were different kinds of educational institutions associated with chivalry, the guilds and the church during the medieval period. Even though access to education was limited during this period, these educational institutions, which were mostly church-related, conducted basic or elementary education. The institutions provided basic/elementary educational functions despite the fact there was relatively vague differentiation between elementary and secondary schools.
The educational institutions associated with the chivalry, the guilds, and the church in the early medieval era were parish, chantry, monastic, and cathedral schools (Gutek, 1995). Parish schools were presided over by a priest and primarily focused on religious ritual and music education as well as reading and writing skills. On the contrary, chantry institutions provided education on the language of the church liturgy and Latin and were established based on an endowment provided by a rich person. Monastic schools provided...
Cathedral schools emerged and flourished in the 12th Century and focused on providing Latin instruction as well as other vernacular languages. These educational institutions in the medieval period differ from today’s institutions in the sense that they focused primarily on religious education. Unlike modern educational institutions, medieval ones were established by religious institutions i.e. the Church and focused on enhancing religious life and practices.

Kaylan McCaskill’s response on the pattern of training in the guild system reflects the kind of educational systems that were utilized during this period. However, this response does not include one of the major features that characterized guild systems of education i.e. religion. While these systems focused on providing training based on particular interests or career, the training was based on religion. Religion formed the basis of education on other areas of interests/career in the guild pattern of training. McCaskill’s response suggests that the current system of education is based on the pattern of training in the guild system. The modern apprentice programs…

Introduction Higher education curriculum and practice responds to cultural, historical, political, and social events. Moreover, the curriculum in higher education institutions is purpose-driven, reflecting the educational theories and philosophies that guide the school’s mission and vision. Some institutions of higher learning aim for a competency-based curriculum, while others develop more subject-oriented or liberal arts-based curricula. Private and public schools may also respond differently to external or environmental pressures and influences. Whereas
The second statute which serves to maintain the economic and political domination of women is the rule stating that women may not "dare or presume to take for spinning more than one ball of wool at one time," because this prevents any attempt on the part of female workers to stockpile or otherwise accumulate enough wool to sell or use it outside the established, guild-monitored economy ("Statutes of a wool
"Theorists of capitalism" such as Werner Sombart state unequivocally that the "beginning and end" of capitalist activities is "a sum of money," which must be calculated and trace the renewed interest in higher mathematics to mercantile capitalism and the need for an easily convertible medium of exchange (Sachs 2000). However, exposure to the Arab world through the Crusades was also a factor in a renewed interest in mathematics independent of
persecution of early Christians under the Roman Empire is a matter of great interest and intrigue to many, even today; as is the matter of distinction and distrust between early Jews and Christians. Furthermore, the ironically similar behavior of orthodox Christians towards heretics rouses the curiosity of many scholars. This paper will discuss the effect of Christianity on Romans and their perceptions towards Christians, Christian perceptions and treatment of
