A PEDAGOGIC CREED

I Believe that

— the only true education comes through the stimu-lation of the child's powers by the demands of the socialsituations in which he finds himself.

— the child's own instincts and powers furnish the ma-terial and give the starting-point for all education.

— to prepare the child for the future life means to givehim command of himself; it means so to train him thathe will have the full and ready use of all his capacities.

— education is a process of living and not a preparationfor future living.

— the best and deepest moral training is precisely thatwhich one gets through having to enter into proper rela-tions with others in a unity of work and thought.

- thinking is the method of intelligent learning, oflearning that employs and rewards mind.

— only by being true to the full growth of all the indi-viduals who make it up, can society by any chance betrue to itself.
