What John Dewey Owes to Froebel

Whatever the subject for discussion in regard to education, or educators, may be, in its many and various phases whether on matters of great importance, or those of lessor scope, in this twentieth century, unsurpassed for progress in art, literature, science and education, the fact remains that our thoughts revert almost at once to nations much older than America for their beginnings and sources.|For they have been products of slow, steady and oontinoua growth, especially education, in which Americans are, primarily interested in the present, which had its origin in those ancient lands of Asia, i.e. China and India, many centuries before it made its appearance in those wonderful, old European countries - Greece and Rome.|It is to such famous teachers of ancient times, Socrates, Plato and Aristotle and others who taught the youths for centuries, both before and after the Christian Era, that the world today owes its development and growth in education.|Note: Original Item lacked Illustrations
