Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Organized Self-Government The basic idea on which this hook is planned is that the object of teaching government is to inspire a respect for organized cooperation through government, and a willingness to do one´s part in it. But the pedagogical fact is recognized that the attention of the pupil must be captured, and his interest aroused, before he can be taught any subject. It is believed that his interest can be captured by showing him the practical value of political cooperation through presenting to him the importance of the work the government is expected to do, and the kind of training that is needed by those who must do it. Therefore a large part of the book is devoted to a discussion of the functions of government and the problems presented to those who perform these functions. There is nothing more true in the field of education than that the child must learn to do by doing. The mind may suffer from indigestion and loss of appetite, just as the body may, if it takes in food in a quantity out of proportion to the exercise taken. The pupil must work with government as well as study it. Such work is suggested in the questions placed at the end of each chapter in the book; but the questions are in the nature of suggestions.
