Meaning of “unless all this training of head and hand…”
Knowledge and practical skill are not sufficient in Washington’s educational ideal unless they are joined to the character with which those abilities are used.
Where does it come from?
Character Building, “What Would Father and Mother Say?”, Project Gutenberg #60484. This is Washington’s normative theory of education and character, not a modern educational outcome study.
