Excerpt from The Essentials of Method: A Discussion of the Essential Form of Right Methods in Teaching
Analogies play an important rôle in all explanations of mental phenomena. This is true because nearly all our terms for mental processes and products are borrowed from sense. Among the many analogical theories of mind, and hence of education, two are particularly prominent: (1) That which regards the soul as a germ, containing by involution that which it is to become by evolution, - a self-active power which seizes upon its surroundings, appropriating what is useful for the development of its predetermined form and content; and (2) that theory which regards the mind at any given stage of its development as the resultant of the manifold forces of its environment, as a product more externally than internally produced.
The first of these views may be called the germ theory of education; the second, the architectural theory. According to the first notion, the mind is a self-producer of a predetermined product. According to the second, it is the result produced by the educational architect. The first conception makes the teacher merely a gardener; the second makes him an architect of mind.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a new perspective on the theory and practice of educating children, based on the principle of apperception, coined by the author. Apperception is the psychological process by which new knowledge is perceived and understood in relation to existing knowledge and experience. The author argues that conventional methodologies such as memorization and drill training may actually hinder a childâs true comprehension. He instead advocates for an approach centered around inductive reasoning, in which children are encouraged to make connections between new information and their existing knowledge. By doing so, the author suggests children will develop a deeper understanding of the world around them. Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
