The contribution made by educationists of the Civil War period who drew their inspiration from science rather than the classics.
The formation in the eighteenth century of "academic honeycombs" - groups of scholars concerned with the growth of science and technology.
Nineteenth century developments on art education and an assessment of the work of the scientific innovators.
