Reformpädagogische Erfahrungen der Landerziehungsheime von Hermann Lietz und ihre Bedeutung für aktu

The focus of this educational theoretical study is on experiences with an autonomous school model, as represented by the country boarding schools founded by Hermann Lietz over a hundred years ago. Among other things, it seeks approaches that can provide guidance for learning schools of the present and analyzes the actual influence that school development within more or less autonomous schools, such as those represented by Lietz's country boarding schools, had on the development of the school system during the lifetimes of the founding fathers as a whole. In addition to discussing whether and through which aspects a theory of school should be expanded, which has so far only oriented itself to the requirements and conditions of the state school system, the examination of the extent to which experiences from private educational institutions can actually be beneficial for current school development processes within the state school system constitutes a core element of the study.
