The Building of the Intellect (Classic Reprint): A Contribution Towards Scientific Method in Education: A Contribution Towards Scientific Method in Education (Classic Reprint) - Brossura
Sinossi
Unlock a thoughtful guide to education grounded in method and purpose. This work surveys key ideas about how we educate the young, offering practical perspectives for teachers, parents, and students of education. It emphasizes a broad view of learning that combines mental habits, moral growth, and the value of general culture.
Structured around clear questions about how minds develop, how to cultivate reasoning, and how to balance classic study with practical subjects, this book argues for thoughtful choices in curriculum. It discusses the role of teachers, the importance of bodily exercise, and the ways historical and philosophical ideas shape classroom practice. The text aims to help readers see education as a comprehensive, living process rather than a narrow set of tasks.
- Foundations: how education can shape mental habits and reasoning.
- Methods: the balance between classical study and modern subjects.
- Practice: the teacher’s influence, classroom structure, and the role of exercise.
- Scope: the aims of general culture and the moral dimensions of schooling.
Ideal for readers curious about the aims and methods of education, whether for teaching, parenting, or study.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates how maximizing the potential of an individual's mental capabilities is the true aim of any worthwhile educational method, and rejects the idea that it is to simply pass on knowledge. The author goes on to discuss what they perceive as the mistaken tendency to focus on specific subjects within a curriculum at the expense of the general development of a student's faculties, an approach the author believes to have left many students lacking in moral character. They also consider which subjects would be best for developing which elements of a young mind. The author draws on the philosophies of Aristotle, Locke, and Plato, amongst others, in order to build a case against society's treatment of education as solely a gateway to a lucrative career, whilst neglecting to nurture the development of the individual as a whole person. They argue that real education should nurture a lifelong love of learning, and that current educational practices often fail to achieve this.
