Seller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the field of education in the early 1900s, particularly focusing on curriculum design. The author argues that the curriculum, like any other structure, must serve a purpose. In this case, the purpose is two-fold: unifying the educational system and serving as a teaching guide. The author believes that this guide should be prescriptive in its requirements for fundamental subjects, but flexible in its details and methods, leaving room for teacher and student agency. As it is a collaborative effort that must unify, the author stresses the importance of a balance in perspectives throughout, ensuring a holistic approach that takes into account the needs of all students. The book advocates for equity, believing that all children deserve equal access to quality education opportunities, regardless of their background. Finally, it underscores the value of reading, with a particular emphasis on developing a genuine love for literature. By providing a basis for teachers and education policymakers to create meaningful curricula, this analysis offers insights into the significance of tailoring education to the needs of students and society, encouraging them to reach their full potential.
