Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Schools With a Message in India The foreign mission boards of Great Britain and North America recently sent to India a strong commission under the chairmanship of Principal A. G. Fraser. The report of the commission, published in October 1920, under the title ´Village Education in India,´ has been recognized by the highest authorities as furnishing valuable guidance not only to the missionary societies, but to all interested in the education of the villages of India. Professor D. J. Fleming was a member of the commission, and in the course of its investigations he gathered personally a large amount of material relating to the work of the different schools that were visited. The present volume contains a selection from that material. While, as Professor Fleming points out, it is published on his own responsibility and not with the authority of the commission, it is an important supplement to the report, supplying a body of concrete experience which illustrates the arguments and conclusions of the commission. The schools here described are selected from among the best in India. They cannot be regarded as typical of Indian educational institutions as a whole. But in describing some of the best work that is being done. Professor Fleming´s volume shows what may be achieved under actual Indian conditions, and furnishes valuable guidance as to the principles and methods which have in practice proved most fruitful and rewarding. It will be cordially welcomed by those engaged in the work of education in India, and by many at home who will find in it fresh evidence of the noble work that is being done for the redemption and upbuilding of human life in India.
