Honors Thesis KARL G. MAESER: THE MORMON PESTALOZZIAN by Renae Myers Submitted to Brigham Young University in partial fulfillment of graduation requirements for University Honors Philosophy Department Brigham Young University August 2020 Advisor: A. LeGrand Richards Honors Coordinator: Ryan Christensen ii ABSTRACT KARL G. MAESER: THE MORMON PESTALOZZIAN Renae Myers Philosophy Department Bachelor of Arts Karl G. Maeser, the founder of Brigham Young Academy (now Brigham Young University), was able to bring progressive education to a pioneer society largely due to his educational and spiritual preparation. He was trained in the pedagogical methods of Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi who believed that children learned best inductively, mainly through observation. Pestalozzi also believed that children were worthy of love and respect. Maeser was able to emulate Pestalozzi’s methods in an unprecedented way not only because the doctrine of The Church of Jesus Christ aligned so well with Pestalozzi’s methods, but because Maeser strove to have the Spirit of God influence every lesson. The tributes given by his students at Brigham Young Academy are evidence of his unique influence.

BACKGROUND/HISTORY The Maeser Neighborhood is located south of Center Street, east of University Avenue, west of 900 East, and north of 600 South. Center, University, and 900 E. are all arterial (major) streets. 300 South (Highway 89) bisects the neighborhood along the east-west axis. Development of this area of the City began with some of the early settlers and gradually continued throughout the years. As one of the early areas to develop in Provo, the Maeser Neighborhood is often referred to as a Pioneer Neighborhood. Like the other Pioneer Neighborhoods in Provo, Maeser was named after the school that is in the neighborhood. The Maeser School gets its name from a renowned educator in Provo, Karl G. Maeser. The Maeser School is the oldest existing school building in Provo, having been built in 1898. The area was laid out on a block grid with eight lots per block that alternated orientation from one block to the next. The southern border of the neighborhood was the edge of the platted block grid.
