Excerpt from The Study of the Behavior of an Individual Child: Syllabus and Bibliography
This Syllabus is the outgrowth of attempts to direct prospective teachers in classes in Education to under stand child life in the city. In doing this work it has been found more effective to study individual cases rather than the child as a type or children in general. As soon as a young woman has assumed responsibil ity for the study and care of an individual child she has sought for general material and for advice to help her understand her problem. The fundamental as sumption underlying the course is that the child is like other living creatures. Placed under the artificial environment of the city he is handicapped in many respects and it is the business of education to re move such handicaps so far as possible. In order to do this, it is necessary to understand the child's life in detail and to see the kind of conditions essential for his proper growth.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book by the author presents a novel concept in child study and education: studying the behavior of the individual child. It breaks from the traditional method of classifying children into types or studying children in general, proposing instead to carefully observe and interpret the life of a single child in detail. The author believes this approach is more effective for understanding child life in a city setting. The volume offers a detailed syllabus and bibliography for undertaking the study of an individual child, as well as discussing the physical, mental, emotional, social, educational, and linguistic development of the child. The author emphasizes the reciprocal nature of the relationship between the child and their environment, arguing that the child both influences and is influenced by their surroundings. This book will be of great interest to scholars of education and child development, and may inform the practices of teachers and parents. It provides new perspectives on child study by drawing on sources as diverse as experimental psychology and literature and offers a comprehensive and detailed guide for those seeking to study a child at an individual level.
