What reading level is The Art of Education book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

If unsuccessful in this, he tries to show the relation of the task and its successful performance to something the child does desire, and thus brings it within the glow of an existing interest from which it may borrow light and heat, and thus awaken an indirect interest.
THE DOCTRINE OF INTEREST 89 The teacher knows that if sufficient interest be aroused, direct or indirect, the task will be performed, for interest impels to action.
Now, let us observe the probable procedure of a teacher who wo
...uld disregard the doctrine of interest. In all probability such a teacher would begin by an attempt to appeal to the child's interest. But if no interest is manifested, that is, if he fails with this method, such a teacher then resorts to a form of compulsion. If he says, " You must do this, or be kept in after school, " he relies on a negative interest in the threatened punishment to induce a sufficient indirect interest to carry the child over the difficulty. Or if he moralizes, and lectures the child on the disciplinary value of overcoming difficulties, he is but trying to arouse the interest of the child in a desirable quality to the creation of which the difficult task is expected to contribute, and is thus applying the doctrine of interest as it is involved in the awakening of indirect interest.
