Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This mid-19th-century book investigates two innovative learning methods of the time, the monitorial system and the Lancasterian method, both of which enjoyed popularity in British and Indian schools and orphanages. Using excerpts from widely read pamphlets on the subject, the author, a professor of divinity, analyzes the methods and compares and contrasts the merits of each in delivering a quality education. The central focus is a detailed examination of the two systems' approaches to religious instruction, concluding that the monitorial system, which incorporates religious instruction in the established doctrines of the Church of England, should be preferred over the Lancasterian method, which offers neutral religious instruction. The author argues that the monitorial system is not inferior to the Lancasterian method, despite criticism that the former is narrow and restrictive in its approach.
