Sinossi
Excerpt from Practical Observations Upon the Education of the People, Addressed to the Working Classes and Their Employers
Fourthly, The preparation of elementary works is not the only, nor, at first, is it the most valuable ser111ce that can be ren dered'towards economizing the time of the labouring classes. The institution of Lectures is, of all the helps that can be given, the most valuable, where circumstances permit that is, in towns of a certain size. Much may thus be taught, even without any other instruction; but, combined with reading, and subservient: to it, the effects of public lectures are great indeed, especially in the present deficiency of proper elementary works. The stu dents are enabled to read with advantage; things are explained 1 to them which no books sufficiently illustrate; aceessis afforded to teachers, who can remove the difficulties which occur perpet ually in the reading of uneducated persons; a word may often suffice to get rid of some obstacle which would have impeded the unassisted student's progress for days and then, whatever requires the performance of experiments to become intelligible, can only be learnt by the bulk of mankind at a lecture, inas much as the Wealthy alone can have such lessons in private, and none but men highly gifted can hope to master those branches of science without seeing the experimental illustrations.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book from the early 19th century concerns itself with improving the lives of the working class through education. The author firmly believes one cannot be too poor to gain at least an hour or two each day or every other day to dedicate to the cultivation of knowledge. This time can be spent learning to read or putting reading skills to use through books and newspapers that can be obtained for cheap. The author goes on to explain how employers can also help with this goal and further describes ways in which educational pursuits can be beneficial to all. This book is an important historical account of the educational landscape at the time while providing arguments and suggestions for the improvement of literacy among the working class. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
