Synopsis

Learning is a life process you can learn to guide.

This book presents a holistic view of education as a conscious, active pursuit that shapes thinking, feeling, and will through experience. It argues that schools should reproduce valuable real-life situations, not just transmit ideas, so learning becomes meaningful in daily life.

The discussion covers how learning arises from the child’s instincts, past experiences, and social context, and how teachers serve as mediators between curriculum and pupil. It offers a practical vision of how to balance intellectual and humanistic growth, while avoiding rigid routines that constrain genuine exploration.

• How classroom activity connects with real-life values and future learning.
• Why goals, controls, and appreciation must work together to build character.
• Different roles of intellect, emotion, and will in everyday education.
• Strategies for teachers to adapt lessons to each pupil’s experience and needs.

Ideal for readers exploring education theory, curriculum design, and the philosophy behind effective teaching in diverse classroom contexts.
