Many property owners felt they did not need to contribute to property taxes to support public schools since many property owners were wealthy and their children did not attend public schools. Mann believed they should want to contribute to the public schools to better society as a whole seeing as educated people contribute more to society.]]> 2023-10-08 14:31:27 UTC https://padlet.com/alholman/9gzxxl0baiba3b19/wish/2737075248 alholman https://padlet.com/alholman/9gzxxl0baiba3b19/wish/2737084146 I found Europe's view on education very contradictory and interesting compared to Americas. They believed if people were educated, it would make the working class unstable because they would question the justice of their place in social order. ]]> 2023-10-08 14:44:32 UTC https://padlet.com/alholman/9gzxxl0baiba3b19/wish/2737084146 alholman https://padlet.com/alholman/9gzxxl0baiba3b19/wish/2737086268 Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi believed that the interest of the child rather than the demands of the subject matter was more important. With this theory you can use the child's interest to pull their attention in to educate them on the subject matter. I feel we use this method in practice today, especially in early childhood education.]]> 2023-10-08 14:47:34 UTC https://padlet.com/alholman/9gzxxl0baiba3b19/wish/2737086268 alholman https://padlet.com/alholman/9gzxxl0baiba3b19/wish/2737088414 I did not know that boarding schools were originally created to protect children from the dehumanizing effects of profit-driven industrial order as well as from the influence of family. I always assumed they were for the wealthy and children with behavior issues.]]> 2023-10-08 14:50:51 UTC https://padlet.com/alholman/9gzxxl0baiba3b19/wish/2737088414 alholman https://padlet.com/alholman/9gzxxl0baiba3b19/wish/2737090831 I found Catharine Beecher's theory on women interesting and pretty connected with how society views women's roles today, for the most part. She believed women should have more responsibility with home management and the early education of children while the men worked in commerce and industry. I feel women's roles have a lot more variety but that expectation of women managing the home is still a big factor in society today. ]]> 2023-10-08 14:54:34 UTC https://padlet.com/alholman/9gzxxl0baiba3b19/wish/2737090831 alholman https://padlet.com/alholman/9gzxxl0baiba3b19/wish/2737094351 I find it interesting that women were paid less to teach than men were. I noticed in the part about Catharine Beecher it states that women were more efficient at teaching children than men were. I feel women were taken advantage of when it should have been equal pay for both. Even today, wages seem low for teachers and a good majority of teachers are women. ]]> 2023-10-08 14:59:45 UTC https://padlet.com/alholman/9gzxxl0baiba3b19/wish/2737094351
