Could John Stuart Mill Have Saved Our Schools?

by Siegfried Engelmann

3/5

Co-authored with Douglas Carnine, this book connects John Stuart Mill's 1843 System of Logic to modern instructional design. Engelmann and Carnine argue that Mill's four templates for organizing examples so they support only one interpretation are the key to effective teaching — and that if schools had followed this logic, student achievement would be dramatically higher than it is today.
