Common Sense in Education and Teaching: An Introduction to Practice is a book written by P.A. Barnett and first published in 1905. The book aims to provide an overview of the principles and practices of effective teaching, drawing on the author's experience as a teacher and educational administrator. Barnett argues that education should be practical and relevant to the needs of students, and that teachers should focus on developing their students' critical thinking skills and ability to apply what they have learned to real-world situations. He also emphasizes the importance of creating a positive and supportive learning environment, and offers practical advice on classroom management, lesson planning, and assessment. Throughout the book, Barnett emphasizes the importance of common sense in teaching, arguing that educators should use their own judgement and experience to guide their practice. He also critiques some of the prevailing educational theories and practices of his time, arguing that they are too focused on abstract concepts and not enough on practical skills and knowledge. Overall, Common Sense in Education and Teaching is a valuable resource for educators looking to improve their practice and better understand the principles of effective teaching. While some of the specific advice and examples may be dated, the book's emphasis on practicality, critical thinking, and common sense remains relevant today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
