The Montessori Method: Online Book

IT is not my intention to present a treatise on Scientific Pedagogy. The modest design of these incomplete notes is to give the results of an experiment that apparently opens the way for putting into practice those new principles of science which in these last years are tending to revolutionise the work of education. Much has been said in the past decade concerning the tendency of pedagogy, following the footsteps of medicine, to pass beyond the purely speculative stage and base its conclusions on the positive results of experimentation. Physiological and experimental psychology which, from Weber and Fechner to Wundt, has become organised into a new science, seems destined to furnish to the new pedagogy that fundamental preparation which the old-time metaphysical psychology furnished to philosophical pedagogy. Morphological anthropology applied to the physical study of children, is also a strong element in the growth of the new pedagogy. But in spite of all these tendencies, Scientific Pedagogy has never yet been definitely constructed nor defined. It is something vague of which we speak, but which does not, [Page 2] in reality, exist. We might say that it has been, up to the present time, the mere intuition or suggestion of a science which, by the aid of the positive and experimental sciences that have renewed the thought of the nineteenth century, must emerge from the mist and clouds that have surrounded it. For man, who has formed a new world through scientific progress, must himself be prepared and developed through a new pedagogy. But I will not attempt to speak of this more fully here. Read More.

Google Search: paul holmes blog

This google search brought up some interesting blog entries for paul Holmes, most are from NZ.

Google News search for Paul Holmes "Cheeky Darkie" comments revealed these stories.

Gosh! Holmes has made a name for himself by calling Annan a "cheeky Darkie" several times on his radio show on NewsTalkZB. I believe he did this to reclaim his position on the covers of the NZ magazines whre he regularly features. I have always wondered why he got this superstar treatment. Also, I always believed there lurked a "cheekie" personality beneathed his carefully cultivated media image. Atleast this latest controversy will ensure him publicity for some more time to come.

'Very Rich' in, Yes, Calcutta (washingtonpost.com)

This is how washington post describe Calcutta The phenomenon is especially striking here in Calcutta, a city of roughly 12 million and a place of mildewed palaces, potholed streets and unkempt public gardens. Outside the grand neoclassical façade of the Indian Museum, emaciated women stretch out their palms, wearing Pieta-like expressions as infants sleep beside them on the sidewalk. Nearby, an elderly beggar approaches a car with a tin pail suspended from her forearm. She has no hands. But the "City of Dreadful Night," as Rudyard Kipling called it more than a century ago, is also welcoming the arrival of health clubs, restaurants, shopping malls and luxury housing complexes. Along a bypass road choked with motorized rickshaws and the occasional goat, billboards tout cell-phone plans and a water park called "Aquatica." Newly registered cars are flooding the streets at a reported rate of 3,000 a month.

India's Muslim Time Bomb

India's Muslim Time Bomb The naivete' of Pankaj Misra -a novelist and the author of this article appearing as an op-ed piece in the New York Times is striking. It amounts to scaremongering and portrays doomsday scenarios - a popular indulgence of the west, especially when analysing India. If India did not disintegrate after the Babri Masjid tragedy, it won't now.

STUFF: WORLD NEWS - STORY : Parsi Decline

STUFF: - STORY : Great story on the Parsis The entrepreneurial Parsis control more than 15 per cent of the market capitalisation on India's main stock exchange, but account for a miniscule 0.000076 per cent of its billion people. The Parsi population has always been small but census figures show it fell a third to 76,000 in 1991 from a peak of 114,000 in 1941. At this rate, the number could shrink to about 20,000 within 20 years, experts say.
