The Principles of Intellectual Education (Classic Reprint) by F. H. Matthews Pdf

Excerpt from The Principles of Intellectual Education What then is the aim of education? Only one answer in general terms is possible - it is to prepare for life. But when we begin to work out in detail all that is involved in this apparently simple formula, we begin to be conscious of the difficulties before us. Even setting aside the question of the formation of character, which does not fall directly within the scope of this treatise, and limiting ourselves strictly to the training of the intellect, it is clear that the same qualities do not suit all walks of life, and that the possibility of developing adequately both the special qualities required for special pursuits and the general qualities common to all, if any such there be, will depend in both cases alike on the natural quick ness and adaptability of the mind to be trained and the length of time during which the child can be kept at school. Hence four questions arise (i) What are the general qualities of mind which education is able to develop, if any? (2) What special qualities fit special walks? (3) What is the natural character and adaptability of the mind under training? (4) How long can that training be continued? Now two of these questions, the second and the fourth, cannot be handled effectively in a general disquisition upon education. They require special treatment to be of any great value. At the same time they cannot be put aside altogether. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Moral Principles in Education (Classic Reprint) by John Dewey Pdf

Excerpt from Moral Principles in Education Manual training is more than manual; it is more than intellectual; in the hands of any good teacher it lends itself easily, and almost as a matter of course, to development of social habits. Ever since the philosophy of Kant it has been a commonplace in the theory of art, that one of its indispensable features is that it be universal, that is, that it should not be the product of any purely personal desire or appetite, or be capable of merely individual appropriation, but should have its value participated in by all who perceive it.

Social Principles of Education (Classic Reprint) by George Herbert Betts Pdf

Excerpt from Social Principles of Education The problem of philosophy is to bring to light new and more profound meanings. Philosophy seeks to find in the world as a whole a broader and richer significance through discovering the ulti mate and vital relations which exist among its parts. It tries so to organize and unify experience that it may possess the richest and fullest reality pos sible. Philosophy attempts to fit part to part in the great mosaic of creation, confident that the meaning of the whole and of each part will appear when the pattern is complete.

The Principles and Methods of Human Culture by William Russell Pdf

Excerpt from The Principles and Methods of Human Culture: A Series of Lectures Addressed to Young Teachers; Part I. Intellectual Education; II. Moral Education The attentive study and Observation of the natural workings of the mind, in the successive stages of its progress, from incipient intelligence to maturity of reason, imply, however, not merely a care ful analysis of the facts and modes of mental action, but a watchful observation, with a view to detect, in all cases, the moving power or impelling principle of action, to aid and regulate which is the educator's chief work. The ceaseless intellectual activity of child hood, maintained through the various media of perception, furnished by the organs of sense, is obviously stimulated by the constitutional principle of curiosity, an eager desire to know and understand, and therefore, to observe and examine. Hence the irrepressible and search ing questions with which children, in the instinct Of faith, appeal to whomsoever they think can satisfy their craving for information.

Principles of Education (Classic Reprint) by Frederick Elmer Bolton Pdf

Excerpt from Principles of Education The present work is the outgrowth of actual class-room experience in teaching the subject for two years in the State Normal School at Milwaukee and eight years in the State Uni versity of Iowa. Previous to this experience, many of the ideas here expressed had been gradually shaping themselves while the author was teaching and supervising in public schools. All of the material has been carefully tested in junior and senior university classes, and much of it in advanced normal school classes. Portions of several chapters have been given many times in teachers' institutes and associations. The distinct aim, however, has been to produce a text-book of college grade for beginners in the study of educational science.

The Schools and the Nation (Classic Reprint) by Georg Kerschensteiner Pdf

Excerpt from The Schools and the Nation Mr. Best to apply the principles here outlined to English conditions, the wide circulation it certainly deserves. But it is not the mere honour of recognition which constitutes the chief ground of my pleasure. I have grown too old in the struggle for educational ideals to let such personal satisfaction turn my head. Much more important for me is the thought that in so far as other great nations occupy themselves with the spiritual and intellectual elevation of their people, Germany too will reap the benefit of their efforts. The rivalry of two countries in the matter of education is far more welcome, far more profitable, and far more glorious than any competition in armaments. When two neighbours are each truly educated both may dare to live in peace and to devote all their strength to the improvement of their own homes and their own families. The more progress a nation makes internally, the more peaceably will i settle all external differences; and a man' can do bisli country no greater service than by exerting his powers to help other nations in their struggle for moral and intellectual progress, that they may not only uphold the cause of liberty, but may be themselves animated by a spirit of justice and goodwill.

The Principles and Practice, Early and Infant School Education (Classic Reprint) by James Currie Pdf

Excerpt from The Principles and Practice, Early and Infant School Education Part II. Treats on the subject-matter of instruction in early school-education. This is not arbitrary or conventional, but necessary and of universal propriety. Its various com ponents stand in a determinate relation to each other; and, whether viewed individually or in this mutual relation, are evidently suggested, with respect to their time, manner, and extent, by a consideration of the child's constitution. This Part should therefore be studied with a constant reference to Part I on which its conclusions are founded. It has been considered of importance to give exa'mples of lessons under almost every department of instruction. Regarding these it may be remarked, that what has been aimed at is, not to give the very words that may be supposed to consti tute the lesson, - for the attempt to do so, though very com mon, is quite futile, - but merely to suggest an appropriate train of thought for each, and to show how the illustration should be introduced. Practical teaching cannot be learned from book, even from the most exact photography of les sons it must be learned, like any other art or profession, by imitation of good models and by practice under the eye of a master. Part III. Exhibits those features of Teaching and Manage ment which are of general application in early school-edu cation. School-management is particularly dwelt on, in respect that it is frequently overlooked, and undue promin ence given to the mere act of teaching, which yet bears rather on the intellectual than on the moral well-being of the school.

Principles of Teaching in Secondary Education by Herbert Hamilton Foster Pdf

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1921 edition. Excerpt: ... 3. Composition Of An Act Of Thought The Steps in Thinking.--The problematic procedure with which we have just dealt is that in which the pupil acquires information, either by hearing it, reading it, or observing. It is essentially a problem of knowing. On a higher intellectual plane, and involving a far more difficult task, is the problem which involves thinking out. It may be the derivation of a general principle from given concrete data, or it may be application of a general principle in the solution of a particular situation. In logical terms, the problem may be either inductive or deductive, or indeed may involve both logical processes. * In all problematic procedure, a complete act of thought involves four fairly distinct steps. These are, first, the recognition and formulation of the problem;1 second, a tentative solution or hypothesis; third, reasoning out the implications of the solution, and, fourth, the verification. Stated in terms of the principle of association, we find that the problematic learning of the thought type involves a complex system of both association and dissociation, of analysis and synthesis. In the first of the four steps, the student encounters the situation as a unity, and proceeds to analyze out its problematic elements. In the formulation of the hypothesis, he associates tentatively these problematic elements with others. The next step, the reasoning out of the implications, is essentially an analytic one, in which the synthesis thus formed is subjected to a further analysis. In the verification, the synthesis of the second step is reformed with new subordinate elements included. Thus, the questions the student asks are these: 1. What is the problematic feature of this situation, and what is there...
