The current state of the educational systems of the world has created much controversy among teachers, parents and the population in general. Charlotte Mason was a pioneer in the area of child education more than a century ago. She observed how 'modern education' in her day treated children as containers to be filled with predigested information. She spoke out against the extensive engineering of artificial learning experiences in a school classroom and promoted an alternative approach to education that received much criticism and resistance.
Charlotte Mason's first book, Home Education, is a compilation of a series of lectures given at Bishop Otter Teacher Training College in Chichester, England. The book forms the first volume in a series of six.
In Home Education, Charlotte Mason gives an extensive and detailed explanation of the principles she believed to be important in the upbringing and education of children from birth to nine.
The liberal education she promoted in the late eighteen hundrends are very popular and widely implemented in the homeschooling community of the twenty-first century.
