Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on Professional Education But if there be any doubt of the actual exist ence of peculiar genius, and if, on the contrary, there is reason to believe, that all the faculties of the mind can be directed by circumstances to any particular object, prudent parents would de cide as early as possible what the professions of their children are to be, and would trust securely to the power of education. In this point of View it becomes necessary to examine the long-con tested question concerning genius, not merely as a subject of curious speculation, but'of immediate practical utility.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thirteen Essays on Education A small number of professional teachers who call themselves The Thirteen have for some time been in the habit of meeting for discussion. Thinking that some of the papers which were read at their meetings may have an interest beyond their immediate circle, they venture to publish this little book. It includes certain papers of a less technical kind which were written by members for other, though cognate, purposes, but in the first instance they are all.

This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teacher Essays and Addresses on Education The papers of this volume fall into three groups, two of the three being written by myself. From my writings on education I have selected only those which may have some claim to permanent interest, and all but two have been tested by previous pub lication. Those of the first group deal with ques tions about which we teachers, eager about our im measurable art beyond most professional persons, never cease to wonder and debate: What is teaching? How far may it influence character? Can it be prao ticed on persons too busy or too poor to come to our class - rooms? To subjects of what scope should it be applied? And how shall we content ourselves with its necessary limitations? Under these diverse head ings a kind of philosophy of education is outlined. The last two papers, having been given as lectures and stenographically reported, I have left in their original colloquial form. A group of papers on Har vard follows, preceded by an explanatory note, and the volume closes with a few papers by Mrs. Palmer.. She and I often talked of preparing together a book on education. Now, alone, I gather up these frag mentsn. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-03-14 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on Education and Kindred Subjects The profession of teaching has long been characterised by certain habitual convictions, which Spencer undertook to shake rudely, and even to deride. The first of these con victions is that all education, physical, intellectual, and moral, must be authoritative, and need take no account of the natural wishes, tendencies, and motives of the ignorant and undeveloped child. The second dominating conviction is that to teach means to tell, or show, children what they ought to see, believe, and utter. Expositions by the teacher and books are therefore the true means of education. The third and supreme conviction is that the method of educa tion which produced the teacher himself and the contem petary or earlier scholars authors, and publicists, must be the righteous and sufficient method. Its fruits demon strate its soundness, and make it sacred. Herbert Spencer, in the essays included in the present volume, assaulted all three of these firm convictions. Accordingly, the ideas on education which he put forth more than fifty years ago have penetrated educational practice very slowly particularly in England; but they are now coming to prevail in most civilised countries, and they will prevail more and more. Through him, the thoughts on education of Comenius, Montaigne, Locke, Milton, Rousseau, Pestalozzi, and other noted writers on this neglected subject are'at last winning their way into practice, with the modi fications or adaptations which the immense gains of the human race in knowledge and power since the nineteenth century Opened have shown to be wise.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Learning and Living: Academic Essays 0 find a suitable title for these essays written at different times and under widely difl'ering circum stances has been no easy task. Each of them was the result of some special impulse pointing to some rather special treatment. They have grown out of a long and varied experience covering important changes in method, an enormous material expansion, a porten tous professionalizing of the university career and an almost complete revision of the academic vocabulary. It is these changes and these expansions that have most sharply caught the attention of the intelligent public. The constant struggle to maintain the higher ideals of education, to separate the permanent from the whimsical and the transient, escapes observation and passes unrewarded. If these scattered academic essays are read together there appears through them all the reflection of this struggle. This does not mean, I trust, that they are the echoes of a forlorn conserv atism trying to hold its own against the resistless march of change. On the contrary, they try to point the way to changes still more radical because they go down to the ancient roots of all sound human culture. The threads that run through them all are: the value of hard work done as by God's law; the free dom of the teacher to teach and of the learner to learn; the discipline of the remote aim and the responsibility.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Education and Ethics: And Other Essays on Educational Subjects Hat the actions of the individual often fall short of his ideals is a barren truism, but that the ethical standard of a community is generally lower than that of the individuals who compose it is a fact which may not be so easily recognized. And yet we habitually observe that men in the mass are capable of deeds at which they would severally shrink. Whether it be in the great game of nations, where diplomacy and skill are often the merest euphemisms for trickery and deceit, or on the humbler stage of party warfare, where insincerity is often the readiest weapon, we see how frequently the man in private life is superior to the same man in his capacity as member of a party, or a society, or a state. This is particularly true in the case of a community of boys. The force of example and the influence of tradition are stronger in childhood than at a more.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Problems in Modern Education Addresses and Essays This volume is composed of some of the essays and addresses which, in spite of the many exact ing duties of a busy professional life, I have found time to prepare. All but four of the pa pers here brought together were delivered before Texas audiences, two of the exceptions being written for national educational societies, the third for the Association of Southern Colleges and Preparatory Schools, and the fourth for the Southern Educational Association. The essays and addresses were, in each in stance, born of a desire to meet the demands of a practical situation; and were, therefore, con cerned, not so much with the presentation of ab stract ideals, as with the application of well recognized educational principles to the solution of school problems that abound in our day. If there be a unifying principle in the several dis eussions, it is that of concrete idealism, which is the controlling, characteristic attribute of human evolution, and which insists upon the wisdom and necessity of reckoning with environment in order to obtain desirable results.

The favourable welcome accorded to that book by the Press, and the kindly nature of the letters which I have received, encourage me to hope that a more elaborate review of the matters touched upon may not be without its value, at a time when we are threatened with revolution rather than organization in our schools.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Education of Teachers I'r may help the reader to interpret the doctrines embodied in the following essays if he has before him a brief synopsis of the writer's opinions oh the education of teachers. Every man who has patiently studied the problems of education has formed for himself, little by little, an educational creed, or confession of faith; and it is well on such an occasion as the writing of a book to throw into articulate form the articles of one's faith or belief as they relate to the field of thought traversed by writer and reader. Teaching is a spiritual art and classifies with music, poetry and oratory, rather than with the mechanic arts, the arts that deal with matter and its fixed and uniform relations. As teaching has to do with spirit, methods of teaching should not be fixed and invariable, but flexible and fluid, adapted to the modes and phases of variable Spirit. In all intelligent and effective teaching, principles, rather than rules, should be held at a premium. Versatile teaching will draw its methods from prolific principles and will reflect the personality of the teacher who uses them. When methods become uniform, teaching becomes mechanical and wooden. Teachers should be educated rather than trained, education pointing to versatility and freedom, training to uniformity and mechanism. A teacher's education should be of the liberal type. The teacher himself should first of all be a scholar in spirit and attainment, and his strictly professional studies should also be of the liberal type.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ideals and Democracy: An Essay in Modernism The title of this book is its own best introduction. The theme should be of interest to all classes and conditions of people. The treatment is unpretentious, brief, informal. The reader who anticipates new and startling revelation in these pages is doomed to disappointment, but the hope is expressed that old material may appear in new relations. It is the author's purpose to recall to our minds some very common truths - plain, important, neglected - and in a somewhat uncommon manner lead us more fully to appreciate and ply certain of the great fundamental principles that lie at the base of our social structure. That the desired point of view may be brought out, and in order to present the subject in a distinctly human rather than in a purely professional manner, it has been found convenient to be simple in form of statement and to use many illustrations drawn from personal observation or experience. Any far-reaching study of the purpose and application of ideals as the basis of democracy would seem to begin in the school. Such study and appreciation must have their foundation in education. Thorough recognition has been accorded this fact. The results of a modest attempt to interpret the biological and social forces underlying education, to evaluate their contentions, and to enlarge and make them practical for the use of the teacher will receive treatment in a subsequent volume. Of excellent books for teachers there is no lack. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
