Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a set of educational methods and principles that the author believes can transform the state of education, and re-establish a system based on freedom of work and self-development. In the author's view, this approach is not revolutionary but, rather, a return to the original vision of education put forth by Froebel. The book digs into Froebel's methods and principles, which were heavily influenced by concepts of developmental psychology from the time period. It also discusses the historical context in which Froebel was writing, and how his writings and methods were distorted over time to become a simple system of control. The author examines the depth of Froebel's original writings, which included a level of awareness and consideration of nature and the environment that has been lost in more contemporary takes on his work. Through a journey back to the essence of Freobel's educational philosophy, the author crafts a vision of education that they believe can lead to a new foundation for modern education.
