Abstract

The new science of history is not so much interested in past events as it is in the record of the developing capacity of the human mind to transform its own experiences into the things which are valuable to the advancement of the human race. In this process of scientific transformation, education has played, through the ages, a most prominent part; and educators, assuming this interpretative role in the drama of life, have produced the modern science of learning. It seems highly important, therefore, that the historical steps in the development of corrective and special education be given, and that they be fitted into their proper place in the advancement of education as an art and as a science.
