The Permanent Influence of Pestalozzi. It is easy Pestaiozzi , . R i i i lacked in to exaggerate the achievements of this almost sainted originality, reformer of Switzerland. Pestalozzi's methods were P ractlcal 'ty. and consist- neither very original nor well carried out. His chief ency, and was merit lay in developing and making positive the sugges- io ^" l^ 1 ' tions offered by Rousseau, and in utilizing them in the curate, and work of the schools. Even in this he failed somewhat in comprehe...n- practicality and consistency. He was often unable to slveness - work out his own methods. While he stated his views in general most convincingly, we have seen that many of the details had to be managed by his assistants and followers. Occasionally, when he undertook to apply the methods himself, he was strangely inconsistent. Although strongly opposed to all verbal and mcmoriter teaching, in language work he made the mistake of shaping the sentences for his pupils and having them repeat after him; he insisted upon teaching reading and spelling by pronouncing every possible variety of syllable; and in geography, history, and nature study he required the pupils to commit mere lists of important places, facts, or objects arranged in alphabetic order.
