Excerpt from Class-Room Method and Management
The aim of education, and hence of any subject in the curriculum, is to be defined in terms (1) of fruitful knowl edge, (2) right attitudes, (3) applied skills. Hence the question for each subject becomes how to select, organize and present such material as will result in the desired knowl edge, attitudes and skills. The answer to this problem for any particular subject constitutes its method. From this point of view method becomes very definite and concrete, and its application to school-room practise very immediate and Specific.
Part II builds on the foundations already laid and out lines the method of the elementary subjects. In each case it asks the question (1) what is the aim of this branch - what fruitful knowledge, what helpful attitudes, what applied skills should it give the child; (2) what particular subject matter must be used to accomplish these aims; (3) how shall I organise and teach this material to reach the desired aim. In answering these questions there has been an attempt to avoid mere dogmatism and to use the best current points of view in education.

Excerpt from Class-Room Method and Management
The many books now available on the teaching of various school subjects agree in two important particulars. First, each differs from all the others in everything that goes to make a book: in standpoint, mode of treatment, terms used, and practical outcome. No thread of unity leads their diverse points of view to focalize on a common problem. Second, helpful as many of these texts are, no one of them undertakes any thoroughgoing organization of the central factors involved in a fundamental system of method. The result is that we have many "methods," but come perilously near having no method of teaching.
The present work sets itself the rather ambitious task of seeking out and organizing the underlying principles that govern all good method. For method can be placed on a rational basis. In its broader aspects it rests on perfectly definite and simple principles. These principles can be clearly defined. They are easily grasped and may be intelligently applied to the teaching of any subject. Not content with a theoretical statement of the general principles of method, the treatment carries them across to the work of the class room and applies them definitely and concretely to the teaching of the common-school subjects.
Part I, which is devoted to general method, discusses the four cardinal elements which comprise method. These are (1) the determination of aim; (2) the selection of material; (3) the organization of subject-matter for instruction; (4) presentation, or the technique of instruction. The first question that any teacher must ask is, what is my aim, what results do I seek to accomplish in the mind and experience of the child through the subject I teach? The second question is, what material will best accomplish this aim?

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive study of the fundamental principles governing all good teaching methods. Historically, method in education has been a complex and nebulous subject, with a significant number of methods failing to meet the test of actual classroom use. The author argues that this is because most of these methods lack a foundation in psychological and educational principles. Consequently, the book endeavors to establish a universal matrix for method, built on broad principles that can be applied to any subject or class. The work ultimately seeks to equip teachers with the skills to move beyond rote memorization and toward a dynamic and engaging learning process in their classrooms.
