About this book

Thinking and Learning to Think is a 1900 book by Nathan C. Schaeffer (1849-1919), the long-serving superintendent of public instruction for Pennsylvania and a popular voice in American education. Schaeffer writes on how the mind reasons and how schools can train it, in the practical pedagogy that filled the teachers' institutes he addressed across the state. The book belongs to the turn-of-the-century effort to put teaching on a thoughtful footing.
