Side 354 - A connected series of discussions on the foundations of education in the related sciences of biology, physiology, sociology, and philosophy, and a thoroughgoing interpretation of the nature, place, and meaning of education in our world. The newest points of view in the realms of natural and mental science are applied to the understanding of educational problems. The field of education is carefully divided, and the total discussion is devoted to the philosophy of education, in distinction from its...
Side 203 - The very slight amount of variation in the nature of the data necessary to affect the efficiency of a function-group makes it fair to infer that no change in the data, however slight, is without effect on the function. The loss in the efficiency of a function trained with certain data, as we pass to data more and more unlike the first, makes it fair to infer that there is always a point where the loss is complete, a point beyond which the influence of the training has not extended.

The doctrine of formal discipline assumes that if this habit is once thoroughly established, it will function equally well in connection with language and drawing; that, functioning successfully here, it cannot fail to insure neatness of person and attire and that the habit of neatness...
Side 120 - I conquered,' it has been at the end of patient practice. Genius at first is little more than a great capacity for receiving discipline. Singing and acting, like the fine dexterity of the juggler with his cups and balls, require a shaping of the organs towards a finer and finer certainty of effect.
Side 208 - I had acquired a specific habit of work in one field without at the same time acquiring a general ideal of work, my acquisition of a specific habit in another field would probably not be materially benefited.
Side 77 - ... action : Kiss is if you hug and kiss somebody. Mast is what holds the sail up top of a ship. Milk is something like cream. Nail is something to put things together. Nut is something with a shell good to eat. Open is if the door is not closed. Opera is a house where you see men and ladies act.
