Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an early precursor to modern systems of early education, written by the founder of The Glasgow Normal Seminary in Scotland circa 1829. The author, being an active philanthropist dedicated to improving the lives of children in urban environments, recognized the deficiency he saw in early 19th-century education: it was focused on teaching rather than training. This book champions moral training as a significant element lacking in educating the young. The author argues that simply instructing people is not enough, as people need to be trained to connect their intellect with their emotions to make education effective. This book offers a practical approach with methods that can be applied by anyone in their daily interactions with young people. The author was a pioneering figure in the field of early education, and his work, which is laid out in this book, has had a lasting impact on the way young people are educated in Scotland, England, and elsewhere. This book combines concepts of family educational practices with an innovative use of available resources, to produce a model that is both effective and accessible for schools. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780259517993_0
