A MODERN SCHOOL

By PAUL H. HANUS 



Professor of the History and Art of Teaching in Harvard University 

 Author of "Educational Aims and Educational Values" etc. 



The chapters of which this volume consists, except the last, deal 

 with various phases of one central theme : the scope and aims of a 

 modern school, and the conditions essential to its highest efficiency. 

 The last chapter offers some testimony on the working of the elective 

 system, a contemporary question of great importance to both schools 

 and colleges, but the testimony offered pertains only to the college. 

 The first chapter deals specifically with the secondary school; and in 

 it the author has endeavored to extend and strengthen certain concep- 

 tions set forth in his earlier book. The 'next seven chapters contain a 

 fuller treatment of certain topics than was appropriate or expedient in 

 the first chapter, and discuss the internal and external conditions essen- 

 tial to a high degree of success in the work of any school.

This series provides excellent supplementary reading matter for 

 schools of from the fifth to the eighth grade. In these volumes is told 

 the story of the pioneer life of all sections of our country, from the 

 epoch-making voyages of Columbus to Major Powell's marvellous jour- 

 ney through the Grand Canon of the Colorado. The stories are com- 

 plete and interesting, making the experiences of pioneer life as graphic 

 and real as possible. Indeed, the text is made up largely of source 

 materials. These narratives, which are accompanied by admirable 

 maps and illustrations, constitute the best of all introductions for chil- 

 dren to the history and geography of the country.
