Education As Adjustment: Educational Theory Viewed In The Light Of Contemporary Thought is a book written by Michael Vincent O'Shea and first published in 1903. The book explores the concept of education as a means of adjustment to contemporary society and its demands. O'Shea argues that education should not be solely focused on the acquisition of knowledge, but should also aim to prepare individuals for the social and economic realities of their time. The author examines the theories of education put forth by various philosophers and educators, including John Dewey and Herbert Spencer, and critiques them in light of contemporary thought. O'Shea also discusses the role of the teacher in the educational process and argues that they should be viewed as facilitators rather than authoritarian figures.Throughout the book, O'Shea emphasizes the importance of practical education and the need for students to develop skills that will allow them to succeed in the workforce. He also highlights the importance of individuality and the need for education to be tailored to the unique needs and abilities of each student.Overall, Education As Adjustment provides a thought-provoking analysis of educational theory and its relevance to contemporary society. It remains a relevant and influential work in the field of education.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
