Book Description
Excerpt from A Comparison of the Intelligence and Training of School Children in a Massachusetts Town Just as Part I of this report was ready for the press there came an invitation to repeat the survey. Some reorganization had taken place as the result of the findings which had been reported, and the School Board was desirous of learning the result of these changes. It was considered worth while to delay this report pending the prepara tion of Part II, in order that the value of repeated measurements might be shown. The delay seems to have been justified, for Part II shows not only some changes which have come about as a result of the first survey, but also points out some new work which needs 'to be done in the schools.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Intelligence of School Children How Children Differ in Ability, the Use of Mental Tests in School Grading, and the Proper Education of Exceptional Children The book has been written primarily for the grade teacher, and as an introduction to the study of The Measurement of Intelligence. Its greatest usefulness probably will be as a book for Teacher Study Clubs and State Reading Circles, and as an introductory textbook for students in normal schools. A careful study'of this book by the teachers of a city or State would contribute wonderfully to the intelligent han dling, of children, and the study of it by prospective teachers would open up entirely new conceptions as to educational procedure, and would lead to a far more satisfactory direction of the exceptional children found in every school. The book will also prove of much value to parents interested in the education of their children, and especially to those whose children vary much in either direction from the normal.

Book Description
How do you tailor education to the learning needs of adults? Do they learn differently from children? How does their life experience inform their learning processes? These were the questions at the heart of Malcolm Knowles’ pioneering theory of andragogy which transformed education theory in the 1970s. The resulting principles of a self-directed, experiential, problem-centred approach to learning have been hugely influential and are still the basis of the learning practices we use today. Understanding these principles is the cornerstone of increasing motivation and enabling adult learners to achieve. The 9th edition of The Adult Learner has been revised to include: Updates to the book to reflect the very latest advancements in the field. The addition of two new chapters on diversity and inclusion in adult learning, and andragogy and the online adult learner. An updated supporting website. This website for the 9th edition of The Adult Learner will provide basic instructor aids including a PowerPoint presentation for each chapter. Revisions throughout to make it more readable and relevant to your practices. If you are a researcher, practitioner, or student in education, an adult learning practitioner, training manager, or involved in human resource development, this is the definitive book in adult learning you should not be without.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Contents of Children's Minds on Entering School Individuality of Children as Influenced by Surround ings - In October, 1869, the Berlin Pedagogical Verein is sued a circular inviting teachers to investigate the indi viduality of children on entering the city schools so far as it was represented by ideas of their environment. Individuality in children, it was said, differed in Berlin not only from that of children in smaller cities or in the country, but surroundings caused marked differences in culture-capacity in different wards. Although concepts from the environment were only one important cause of diversity of individuality, this cause once determined, inferences could be drawn to other causes.
