The teaching of politics

Title

The teaching of politics

Subject

Political science -- Study and teaching.

Description

Essay, likely by J. W. Burton, on the shortcomings of traditional methods of teaching Political Science. Instead, an approach is suggested that sifts out what is irrelevant and false and builds on the perceptions and experience of students and makes the subject relevant for them and for the society in which they live. It is the role of the teacher to provide students with tools for analysis.
