Excerpt from Method in Education: A Text-Book for Teachers
How to teach. - Ou the other hand, the question as to form of education - the now to teach - must be answered in the main by a practical psychology, and only slightly and incidentally by sociology. If, as Laurie says, teaching is simply helping the mind to perform its function of knowing and growing, then only a care ful, persistent, and sympathetic study of the growing mind can show the teacher by what processes it acquires knowledge, assimilates it, and expresses the results (concepts and conclusions); and under what stimuli these processes are best and most fruitfully set going.
Depends somewhat on the matter. The formulation of right method is also dependent upon the matter of education. There is a Izow to be discovered in the dif ferent subjects taught, as well as in the mind to be trained. Every legitimate subject of study is related both to the mind of the learner and to the practical requirements of liberal living; hence each subject will suggest methods based upon this double relation. Dr. Jacobi very neatly sums it up by saying that the teacher is to produce effects upon a living organism, to modify forces which begin by being psychological and end by being sociological.
