Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The "Quincy Methods" Illustrated: Pen Photographs From the Quincy Schools This volume has been prepared to help the earnest teachers of children. No better plan than the presentation of actual lessons which show the application of the principles of education could be devised. It is an admitted fact that the teaching in Quincy reached a point of general excellence hitherto unattained. These lessons are with few exceptions pen photographs of ordinary school-room work; many were sketched while the teacher was unconscious that anything more than the usual notes of a visitor were being taken. They are not presented as models to be copied, but rather as types to be studied. The principle guiding the selection was briefly this - the best whenever and wherever found. The book is not a manual of the Quincy course of study; the material having been gathered, the author arranged it in accordance with the latest and best educational thought. To have reported merely the verbal colloquy between teacher and pupils would have been of little service; hence the descriptions which accompany and form part of every lesson. It has been the aim of the author to make the scene live again in the mind of the reader. In the preparation of this volume aid has been obtained from many sources. No words can express the value of the inspiration and instruction derived from many years´ study of Col. Parker´s matchless work. He has ever seemed the greatest of living teachers. The superintendent and teachers of Quincy have rendered the author indispensable aid, and to them grateful thanks are rendered. The advice and suggestions of Prof. Thomas W. Balliet and Miss Mary A. Spear, of the Cook County Normal School - the latter formerly of Quincy - have been invaluable. The writer has had before her continually that vast number of teachers who believe that education is the realization of the highest possibilities of the child, and who are working unceasingly to make it such; to them she dedicates this book.
