The Social Museum As An Instrument Of University Teaching (1911) is a book written by Francis Greenwood Peabody. The book explores the concept of social museums and their potential as an educational tool for universities. Peabody argues that social museums can provide a unique and effective way to teach students about social issues and the history of human civilization. He describes the various types of social museums that existed at the time, including those focused on art, history, and science, and discusses their strengths and weaknesses as educational tools. Peabody also provides examples of successful social museum programs and outlines the steps necessary for universities to establish their own social museum programs. The book is a valuable resource for educators and students interested in the history of social museums and their potential as a teaching tool.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
