Reviews

[Chrisanne · Rating 4 out of 5]

Catharine Beecher seems like a force to be reckoned with. This is essentially a treatise on education issues(particularly for women), a report on the current status of Beecher's school for women in Hartford, and a request for more sponsorship. She makes points that are still valid today--- we need schools that teach well, systems that are supportive and respectful of teachers and their needs and roles, and better resources and research on teaching.
