Who was John Amos Comenius?
Jan Amos Comenius (1592 - 1670): Reaching the child to grow the Christian. A prescient pioneer of modern educational theory whose life story is nothing short of harrowing, Comenius, a bishop in the Moravian church, lived in a time when education proceeded by rote recitation and liberal use of the “cane.” He was one of the first educators to understand young people as full spiritual and intellectual beings who mostly need to have their natural curiosity encouragedrather than their behinds beaten. He was an idealist with a vision for peaceful cooperation among the denominations through improved education. And today, he remains the namesake of a major initiative in European education.
