The History Of Education

By Ellwood Patterson Cubberley

Book Overview

""The History of Education"" by Ellwood P. Cubberley is a comprehensive textbook that explores the evolution of education from ancient times to the modern era. The book covers the major developments in education, including the rise of formal schooling, the development of curriculum, and the impact of educational theories on teaching practices. The author also examines the social, political, and economic factors that have influenced education over time, as well as the role of education in shaping society. The book provides a detailed analysis of the educational systems of different countries, including the United States, Europe, and Asia. It also includes a discussion of the challenges facing modern education, such as the digital divide, standardized testing, and the privatization of education. ""The History of Education"" is an essential resource for educators, students, and anyone interested in the history and evolution of education.The reading of the school also changed both in character and purpose. In other words, in place of an elementary education based on reading, a little writing and spelling, and the catechism, all of a memoriter type and with religious ends in view, a new primary school, essentially secular in character, was created by the work of Pestalozzi. This new school was based on the study of real objects, learning through sense impressions, the individual expression of ideas, child activity, and the development of the child's powers in an orderly way. In fact, ""the development of the faculties"" of the child became a by-word with Pestalozzi and his followers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
