Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'What Shall the Public Schools Do for the Feeble Minded' by Guy Pratt Davis is a significant historical exploration into the responsibilities and methods of the public education system regarding students with cognitive disabilities. Addressing a critical gap in early 20th-century pedagogy, Davis examines the social, ethical, and practical implications of educating children who were then classified as 'feeble-minded.' The work provides a detailed analysis of how public schools can better serve this population through specialized instruction, modified curricula, and supportive environments designed to foster individual growth and potential self-sufficiency. The text delves into contemporary psychological theories and administrative challenges, offering a window into the evolution of special education in the United States. Davis advocates for a more structured and scientific approach to classroom management and student assessment, emphasizing the need for professional training and dedicated resources. This volume is an essential resource for researchers of educational history, social policy, and the development of inclusive practices within the American school system. It remains a foundational document for understanding the long-standing debate over the role of the state in providing equitable education for all learners.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
