Geography and Education: Through the Souls of Our FeetEducare Press, 1988 - 196 sider Geography and Education is a comparative description of the development of educational systems in very different political arenas. Reaching from early Greek educational philosophies to present day systems, Geography and Education draws in-depth examples from British, Teutonic, Russian and French idealists. The establishment and development of educational systems were unique events to European countries and eventually came to America at a time when the New World was exploring democracy and freedom. These rich and varied outside influences created a particularly difficult educational experience in the North American school arena at the same time that geography was developing as an educational discipline. |
