HISTORY OF PEDAGOGY AND EDUCATION.

WESTERN PEDAGOGICAL TRADITION
открыть 16th Century Polish Primer: Prayer Book, Catechism, Compilation of Maxims
Korzo M.A.

The article describes the main types of 16th century Polish primer models: the first one was only intended to teach children to recognize the letters of the alphabet, the second one – to teach them readings skills. Primers were published both as separate brochures and as part of catechisms, prayer books or Bible text editions. A characteristic feature of the early modern primers of in confessions was a combination of grammatical material with a large selection of religious texts.A comparison of those selections allows one to specify four models, which dominatedin 16th century Poland.The earliest one is the so-called liturgical model and the model of the medieval parish catechetical instruction.The Reformation led to the creation of two more models: primers, which followed the Small Catechism of Martin Luther and primers arranged in the genre of „Spruchbücher“. In the 17th and 18th centuries, textbooks, which imitated the model of the medieval parish catechetical instruction, prevailed.

открыть On “The Dialogues” of Juan Luis Vives – Latin Language Practice
Revyakina N.V.
 
The Dialogues, written by Juan Luis Vives in 1539, were widely popular and have run through nearly 50 editions in half a century. The work can, in a way, be viewed as a textbook, which the students used to master the Latin language. In contrast with the “Colloquies” of Erasmus of Rotterdam, which constitute lengthy narratives touching on various everyday-life topics, Vives’ concise dialogues concentrate on situations that mainly concern school life. The author presents her own translation of “The Dialogues”.
Keywords: textbook, Juan Luis Vives, humanistic pedagogics of the Renaissance.

открыть A Few Aspects of Primary Reading Education in USA: Books and Textbooks
Zolotukhina M.V.
 
Using several examples this article examines how teaching literacy and reading has changed over the course of US history: from early primers to the system of textbooks, special reading-level books and a large body of children’s literature. Whereas in the past, teaching materials were predominantly of religious and moralistic nature, the main principle for non-religious editions today is celebrating diversity, gender and racial equality and affirming ideas such as “I Can Read and I Enjoy Reading».
