Coles Twelve lectures on the history of pedagogy, delivered before the Cincinnati teachers' association at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Before pedagogy became a university module, it was argued, tested, and refined in teachers' meetings. Teaching has a deep history. In these twelve lectures, W. N. Hailman speaks to the Cincinnati teachers' association with a rare blend of practicality and intellectual reach, tracing how classroom aims, discipline, and the teacher's calling were shaped across centuries. Designed as complete pedagogy lectures rather than passing talks, this education lectures anthology reads like a classic teacher training text: compact, forceful, and grounded in the history of pedagogy and the philosophy of education. Hailman connects classical education theory to the day-to-day decisions that make a lesson land, illuminating teaching methods history in ways that still feel usable. For education students study, it offers a strong bridge between normal school curriculum traditions and modern teacher professional development; for general readers, it is an accessible window into 19th century education and the professional world of Cincinnati, Ohio teachers. Historically, it captures a moment when American schooling was professionalising and educators openly debated what a common school should be. Hailman, long associated with the rise of professional teacher education, writes with brisk clarity: each lecture builds an argument, then turns it back towards practice. Dip in for perspective, or read straight through for a coherent map of educational thought. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint -- a collector's item and a cultural treasure for anyone building a library of enduring educational thought.
