Dorothy Irene Height
b. 3-24-1912; Richmond, VA
d. 4-20-2010; Washington, DC

Social activist Dorothy Height, a 2004 recipient of the Congressional Gold Medal, initiated food, child care, housing, and career educational programs. In 1986 she began the Black Family Reunion Celebration to emphasize the positive aspects of the African-American family.

Dorothy Height quote ~
• “We've got to work to save our children and do it with full respect for the fact that if we do not, no one else is going to do it.”
• “No one will do for you what you need to do for yourself. We cannot afford to be separate. . . . We have to see that all of us are in the same boat.”
• “Without community service, we would not have a strong quality of life. It's important to the person who serves as well as the recipient. It's the way in which we ourselves grow and develop.”

Robert Henri, née Robert Henry Cozad
b. 6-25-1865; Cincinnati, Ohio
d. 7-12-1929; cancer

Robert Henri, painter and leader of the Ashcan School in art, was also a noted teacher.

Robert Henri quotes ~
• “It is harder to see than it is to express. The whole value of art rests in the artist's ability to see well into what is before him.”
• “If you want to know about people, watch their gestures. The tongue is a greater liar than the body.”
• “Art cannot be separated from life. It is the expression of the greatest need of which life is capable, and we value art not because of the skilled product, but because of its revelation of a life's experience.”
• “Paint what you feel. Paint what you see. Paint what is real to you.”
• “Different men are moved or left cold by lines according to the difference in their natures. What moves you is beautiful to you.”
• “There is only one reason for art in America, and that is that the people of America learn the means of expressing themselves in their own time, and their own land.”
• “If a certain kind of activity, such as painting, becomes the habitual mode of expression, it may follow that taking up the painting materials and beginning work with them will act suggestively and so presently evoke a flight into the higher state.”

Johann Friedrich Herbart

Johann Friedrich Herbart
b. 5-4-1776; Germany
d. 8-11-1841; stroke

Philosopher and psychologist Johann Friedrich Herbart is founder of pedagogy as an academic discipline.

Homeschooled until the age of 12, Herbart went on to become a tutor to the children of a government official which sparked his interest in education, and a professor of philosophy.

Herbart, recognizing the connection between individual development and the potential contribution to society, believed that only formalized rigorous education could provide the basis of moral and intellectural development of “Inner Freedom, Perfection, Benevolence, Justice and Equity”.

Herbart advocated using literature and historical stories rather than “basal readers” as the text, and that teachers use five formal steps in presenting a lesson -

  1. prepare a topic of interest,
  2. present the topic,
  3. inductive questioning,
  4. deductive evaluation,
  5. relate material to “moral precepts for daily living”.
