Principles of Class Teaching (Classic Reprint) by J. J. Findlay Pdf
Excerpt from Principles of Class Teaching It may be questioned whether any of the members of that Association who met at Glasgow last August, recollected the fortunes of the Society for the Development of the Science of Education, which, under its later title of the Education Society, brought together some eminent. Thinkers, as well as a few practical teachers. Its President in 1879, Alex ander Bain, propounded the question, Is there a Science of Education? And his book, published about the same time, gave an answer, which, while accepted by many thinkers of that time, has never met with the approval of the teaching profession. It would be going beyond' the scope of a preface to deal with Bain's position (his views on one or two vital matters are referred to in the first chapter) but it is worth while to try and clear, the air as to the standpoint from which the study of Education may be regarded.
