Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi  \n(1746-1827)  \nhose of us who can look  \nback approximately 200 years must well know the fancy that American society took, on a sudden, to interrogate, or question, children. It is an odd thing to recall now oneof the strangest fashions of a period full of wild fashions. After a long term of insular seclusion, through the Revolutionary War and the Civil War, we welcomed all sorts of foreigners to our soil, and all manner of foreign notions to our minds.  \nThe grand discovery of the benefit of questioning children made great way in the country, and among some of the best-hearted people in it. The educational theory of questioning children (devised by Jean Henri Pestalozzi of Europe), though it worked well for him, was torn asunder by those  \nteachers who had no gift for talking to children.  \n1. Jean Henri Pestalozzi devised the educational theory of   children.  \na. banishing  \nb. beating  \nc. questioning  \nd. testing  \nWherever one went, among the educated classes, one found the same thing going on. Children of all ages, but especially the younger, were undergoing cross-examination from morning till night. It was a terrible time for them. We saw some fall into a habit of tears when asked a question which they could not answer. We have seen more fall into a habit of glib lying, under the teasing constraint. We have seen tempers ruined for life by the  \nconstant irritation. Most old people can probably say that they have seen promising intellects frittered away; minds above the average atthe outset of life rendered incurably desultory, shallow, and conceited.  \n2. What unfortunate habits  \ndeveloped among children who were overly questioned?  \n\n|  |\n| --- |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n\nIf there are readers of the poet Wordsworth who are puzzledat this day about the drift of his poem, called \"Anecdote for Fathers, Showing how the Practice of Lying May be Taught,\" let them remember that it was written at a time when \"the Pestalozzian system\" was in vogue in England, and throughout Europe; and then they will see what a good lesson it yields. If, at this day, the image flits across our memories of some pale child, with a fretful brow, red eyes, and a constant disposition to  \nget out of the room, or to hide behind the window curtains, when spoken to, we may refer that image back to the days of the\"Pestalozzian system,\" as it was fashionably understood in this country.  \n3. What famous poem describes the Pestalozzian system?  \n\n|  |\n| --- |\n|  |\n\nIt was a cruel injustice to Pestalozzi to render him responsible for all this mischief. His mission was, not to craze children's brains and break their hearts, but the very contrary. We, in fact, gave his name to a mere reaction from a mistake of our own—to one kind of ignorance into which we fell in our escape from another.  \nIn our desire for popular education, early in the 19th century, we had supposed the thing to be done was to put certain facts into the learner's mind—to lay them upon his memory, as it were. To quicken and spread the process, we set children who had learned a  \nthing one minute to teach it to other children the next. This did not answer.  \nWe called it \"the Lancasterian system,\" and supposed the nation would be educated in a trice. When we found, at the end of ten or twenty years, that boys and girls left school after sitting nine years on the benches, unable to do any good with book or pen, while they had lost their home-training in the workshop, the field, or the dairy, we were ready for a reaction. It is to that reaction we most unjustly gave the name of \"Pestalozzian system.\"  \n4. Under what educational system  \nwere children taught to memorize facts, then to teach these facts to younger students?  \n\n|  |\n| --- |\n|  |\n\nThe notion was that we had been all wrong in putting knowledge into children's heads. Therefore, the right way was to get ideas out of them.
