Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is the autobiography of Joseph Lancaster, who was an influential figure in the history of educational reform in the early 19th century. Born in 1778, Lancaster began his work in education by establishing a school for poor children in London in 1798. He developed a system of education that emphasized the use of monitors and pupil teachers, which allowed for a single instructor to oversee a large number of students. His methods were widely adopted in England and the United States, and are still used in schools around the world today. Lancaster's autobiography provides a first-hand account of the development of his educational system. He describes the challenges he faced in establishing his school, the methods he used to teach his students, and the impact that his work had on the lives of his pupils. The book also offers insights into the social and political context of education in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Overall, this book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of education. It provides a fascinating account of the development of a major educational system and offers insights into the life and work of one of the most important figures in the history of education.
