Synopsis
Excerpt from The Modern Teacher: Essays on Educatioal Aims and Methods
The limits of space precluded Art, Music, and one or two other subjects with a claim to appear in the list of contents. English has two Essays devoted to it, as a sign of its capital importance, not yet always recog nized in the curricula of English schools. Citizenship is a new subject in our school time-tables; but in America, under the name of Civics, it has already an established place.
The training of character eludes the binet-simon or any similar test, yet no volume on teaching can be con sidered complete that does not deal with it. It is given in different types of schools in different ways; but the underlying principles that are here presented are of general application. Happy the school where they inspire traditions and ideals, or poems like Clifton Chapel, potent to mould the adolescent life!

The Modern Teacher: Essays on Educatioal Aims and Methods (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book posits that modern society's focus on the material and rational has led to an unhealthy imbalance, neglecting our emotional and spiritual needs. It decries the loss of joy in work and creativity in everyday life, placing blame for this cultural shift on the accelerated industrialization of modern times and a societal obsession with material goods. The author argues that this exclusive value placed on 'the material' comes at the expense of the 'spiritual,' and advocates for a renewed emphasis on literature as a way to recover a fuller, richer experience of life. The author maintains that literature is the most life-giving of all studies, as it has the power to make the past, present, and future come alive in our minds and stir in us the greatest depths of human feeling. 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 # 9781330777930_0
