Publisher's Synopsis
""Som Thoughts Concerning Education"" is a seminal work on the philosophy of education by the renowned English philosopher, John Locke. The book was first published in 1693 and has since become a classic in the field of education. In this work, Locke puts forth his ideas on the proper methods of educating children and young adults. He emphasizes the importance of a well-rounded education that includes not only academic subjects but also physical education, moral education, and social education. Locke argues that education should be tailored to the individual needs and abilities of each student and that teachers should be trained to recognize and develop these unique qualities. He also stresses the importance of parental involvement in the education process and the need for a strong partnership between parents and teachers. Throughout the book, Locke advocates for a practical and pragmatic approach to education that is grounded in reason and experience. His ideas have had a profound impact on the development of modern education theory and practice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
