Abstract

Until recently it was not known that Marietta Johnson, founder of the School of Organic Education in Fairhope, Alabama already wrote about her pedagogical principles and her school earlier than 1913. Between 1909 and 1913 Johnson also gave lectures. This case study highlights the reasons. It also gives an overview of Johnson’s pre-1913 published work.
