Selected Works of Dong Weichuan on Education (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798901860052)

This volume presents a curated selection of educational writings by Dong Weichuan (1901-1968), a distinguished social educator and professor at Beijing Normal University whose scholarly contributions profoundly shaped modern Chinese educational thought. The collected works focus on his pioneering research in mass education, social education, and teaching methodologies, reflecting his lifelong commitment to extending educational opportunities beyond elite circles. Dong's practical engagement-from directing the Shandong Provincial Mass Education Museum to implementing rural education experiments-informs his insightful analyses of China's literacy challenges and his advocacy for educational approaches responsive to social contexts. As a vital supplement to the prestigious Series of Educational Treatises from Ancient China and Series of Educational Treatises from Modern China, this collection completes the scholarly record by preserving Dong's distinctive voice. It offers invaluable resources for understanding the evolution of China's educational reform movements and the development of socially engaged pedagogical practice.
