Rochester Social Center and the Expansion of Public School's Social Function
At the beginning of the 20th century,the Rochester Social Center pioneered a new type of human interaction,making public school a place of exchange for groups with different cultural backgrounds.The Rochester Social Center was a forerunner of the Social Center Movement,promoting the Americanization of immigrants and making full use of existing school buildings.Few domestic scholars have conducted case studies on the center.Although American scholars have conducted studies on the center,such as its origin and development process,few scholars have paid attention to the contribution of the center in expanding the social functions of schools and promoting the transformation of schools.Based on the existing historical materials,this paper explores the impact of Rochester Social Center on the development of public schools in a form of a case study combining with the development process of Rochester Social Center.The research believes that school as a social center expands the social function of school,that makes the connection between school and society closer,and that reshapes the image of school.
