A tarefa de ensinar, muitas vezes, pode parecer complexa demais. TambĂ©m há momentos em que o professor se sente perdido, Ă deriva, sem algum mĂ©todo especĂfico a que se agarrar: “Que tipo de linguagem devo usar?”, “Como saber se a criança está realmente aprendendo?”, “Como ensinar para a vida e nĂŁo apenas para decorar?”. Entretanto, John Milton Gregory, conjugando simplicidade com profundidade, nos revela que a missĂŁo de ensinar nĂŁo precisa ser dificultada pela falta de direção: existem princĂpios básicos, facilmente extraĂdos das leis da natureza e da prĂłpria lei divina, capazes de inspirar, corrigir e orientar mestres e pais desejosos de instruir bem aqueles sob seus cuidados, com toda a excelĂŞncia e show more gravidade que essa arte requer. As sete leis do ensino Ă© para todos aqueles que almejam ensinar com os pĂ©s bem firmados em fundamentos sĂłlidos e universais. show less

- First words
- Teaching has its natural laws as fixed as the laws of the planets or of growing organisms. It is a process in which definite forces are employed to produce definite results, and there results follow as regularly and certainly... (show all) as the day follows the sun.
- Last words
- (Click to show. Warning: May contain spoilers.)The study of these laws may not make of every reader a perfect teacher; but the laws themselves, when fully observed in use, will produce their effects with the same certainty that chemical laws generate the compounds of chemical elements, or that the laws of life produce the growth of the body.
