Book excerpt: Excerpt from Principles of Elementary Education and Their Application This book seeks, first, to set forth the principles of elementary education, and second, to apply these to the work of the elementary school. To establish the principles of elementary education, and to bring to view what is implied in them, a study is made in Part I of the relation between the individual and society, also of the nature of the mental life of the child, of how the child develops, and of how he learns. Part II seeks to determine, in the light of the principles developed, the aim of elementary education, the curriculum of the elementary school, the methods of elementary instruction, and the organization of the elementary school. The effort made to establish the principles of elementary education, the conception held of the inter-relation between the individual and society, the theory of human nature and of human development set forth, the social or national aim of education advanced, the analysis of the learning processes, and the methods of instruction presented are among the distinctive features of this book. The materials offered are sufficient for a three-hour course during two terms or a five-hour course for one term. The book may be used in two ways. First and preferably, it may be followed chapter by chapter. Second, where students purpose to give only a short period to preparation and desire to concentrate more particularly upon class teaching, a course in the Principles and Methods of Elementary Instruction may be given by taking Sec. 4 of Chapter IV, and Chapters V, VIII, and IX.
