This course presents a Christian philosophy of education based on Luke 2:52: "And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men." It shows the privilege and responsibility of the Christian teacher in working with Jesus, the Master Teacher, for the development of the whole person. The first unit deals primarily with the characteristics and needs of students of different ages and how Christian teachers can meet these needs. The second unit looks into the fundamental responsibilities of the teacher and how to fulfill them. The third unit presents a survey of modern educational methods, while the last unit presents the steps for preparing, presenting, and evaluating a lesson.
