Excerpt from Discipline as a School Problem
So long as boys are boys and girls are girls and teachers not perfect in training and insight teach, the problem of discipline will continually recur in the administration of our schools. In the whole field of school and classroom management probably no other school problem causes teachers and principals so much perplexity, and all kinds of devices have been proposed and tried with a view to minimizing the amount of trouble from this source.
The author of this volume has attempted to outline a treatment of the problem from a new angle. Instead of outlining a series of devices, or laying down a number of rules to guide teachers under different conditions, he has attempted to analyze the problem by going to the root of the matter. As a physician would study a case coming under his observation, and diagnose the case in the light of certain well-established laws, so the author has analyzed the problem of discipline by going back to the real causes of misbehavior. This he has done in the light of our knowledge of the evolution of humankind, and from the standpoint of certain well-established psychological principles.
