Description:s/t: An Essay on the Practice & Theory of Ancient Greek Education from 600-300 BCWhen we ask what kind of schooling was behind this brilliant society which has enchanted the centuries ever since, any honest reply can be carried in one word: None. After writing a book searching for the hidden genius of Greece in its schools, Kenneth Freeman (1882-1906) concluded his unique study The Schools of Hellas in 1907 with this summary, "There were no schools in Hellas." No place boys & girls spent their youth attending continuous instruction under command of strangers. Indeed, nobody did homework in the modern sense; none could be located on standardized tests. The tests that mattered came in living, striving to meet ideals that local tradition imposed. The word sköle itself means leisure, leisure in a formal garden to think & reflect. Plato in The Laws is the 1st to refer to school as learned discussion.--John Taylor GattoPrefaceEditor's StatementContentsIllustrationsBibliographyIntroductionThe Practice of EducationThe Theory of EducationIndexWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
