The Teacher
Moral Influences Employed in the Instruction and Government of the Young
Produced by Curtis Weyant, Sjaani
"The Teacher" by Jacob Abbott is a practical instructional guide for educators, written in the mid-19th century. The book focuses on the application of moral influences in the management and instruction of young learners, advocating for approaches that prioritize authority based on moral grounds rather than physical discipline. Abbott aims to share established practices already recognized by experienced teachers to aid those entering the profession, offering anecdotes and insights from real teaching experiences. At the start of the text, Abbott outlines the core philosophy behind effective teaching, emphasizing the importance of engaging with students in a way that makes the work enjoyable rather than burdensome. He contrasts the experiences of different teachers, highlighting how those who approach teaching with ingenuity and an understanding of human nature find joy in their roles, while those who rely solely on routine and punishment face frustration. He shares relatable examples to illustrate how thoughtful methods can transform teaching into a creative and fulfilling endeavor, setting the stage for the broader discussions on classroom management and moral discipline that follow in subsequent chapters.
