0855944439 New, Homer Lane (1875-1925) was Superintendent of the Little Commonwealth, a co-educational community in Dorset run for children and young people ranging from a few months to 19 years. Those over 13 years old were there because they were categorize as delinquent. An American by birth, he had early experience as an educator at the George Junior Republic. At the Little Commonwealth from 1913 to 1918 (at Evershot, Dorset) he pioneered what later we came to know as group therapy and shared responsibility. His educational approach involved the path of freedom instead of imposed authority, of self-expression instead of a pouring-in of knowledge, of evoking and exploiting the child's natural sense of wonder and curiosity instead of a repetitious hammering home of dull facts (Wills 1964: 20). Unfortunately, his work in Dorset came to a rather abrupt end after two of the young female citizens claimed that Lane had immoral relations with them (Wills 1964: 163). As well as having an interest in offenders and expressive forms of education, Lane also worked as a psychotherapist (this also brought him into legal trouble). An important book in the history of education.
