You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

The '''Dalton Plan''' is an educational concept created by [[Helen Parkhurst]]. It is inspired by the intellectual ferment at the turn of the 20th century.((not verified in body|date=July 2019)) Educational thinkers such as [[Maria Montessori]] and [[John Dewey]] influenced Parkhurst while she created the Dalton Plan. Their aim was to achieve a balance between a child's talent and the needs of the community.((not verified in body|date=July 2019))

Parkhurst's specific objectives were as follows:<ref name=dewey>((cite book | author = Dewey, Evelyn | title = The Dalton Laboratory Plan | url = https://archive.org/details/daltonlaboratory00deweiala | location = New York, NY | publisher =  E.P. Dutton ))((page needed|date=July 2019))</ref>((primary source inline|date=July 2019))((page needed|date=July 2019))((primary source inline|date=July 2019))
# To tailor each student's program to his or her needs, interests and abilities. 
# To promote each student's [[independence]] and dependability. 
# To enhance the student's social skills. 
# To increase their sense of responsibility toward others.
Influenced at least in part by the teachings of Judo after conversations with the founder of Kodokan Judo, Dr Jigoro Kano.  Ref page 72 and 86 ISBN 978-1-56836-479-1

She developed a three-part plan that continues to be the structural foundation of a Dalton education:<ref name=dewey />((page needed|date=July 2019))((primary source inline|date=July 2019))
# The [[House system|House]], a social community of students.
# The Assignment, a monthly goal which students contract to complete.
# The Laboratory, a subject-based classroom intended to be the center of the educational experience. The laboratory involves students from fourth grade through the end of secondary education.

Students move between subject "laboratories" (classrooms) and explore themes at their own pace.((citation needed|date=July 2019))

==Introduction in UK==
In 1920, an article describing the working of the Dalton Plan in detail was published in the ''Times' Educational Supplement''.  Parkhurst "has given to the secondary school the leisure and culture of the University student; she has uncongested the curriculum; she has abolished the teacher's nightly preparation of classes and the child's nightmare of homework.  At the same time the children under her regime cover automatically all the ground prescribed for examinations 'of matriculation standard,' and examination failures among them are nil."<ref>May 27, 1920, article in the ''Times' Educational Supplement''</ref>

The Dalton Plan is a method of education by which pupils work at their own pace, and receive individual help from the teacher when necessary. There is no formal class instruction.  Students draw up time-tables and are responsible for finishing the work on their [[syllabus]]es or assignments.  Students are also encouraged to help each other with their work. The underlying aim of the Dalton Plan is to achieve the highest mental, moral, physical and spiritual development of the pupil.((citation needed|date=February 2017))

In the spring of 1921, English headmistress [[Rosa Bassett]] went to the Children's University School and stayed with Parkhurst. They spent hours talking about education. Parkhurst found Bassett in complete agreement with her ideas: "She was Dalton," Parkhurst wrote 50 years later. She described Bassett and [[Belle Rennie]] as the two people in England who were most enthusiastic and most helpful about the introduction of the Dalton Plan. Rosa Bassett was instrumental in the first application of the Dalton Plan of teaching within an English [[secondary school]]. She contributed a chapter to Parkhurst's book on the Plan,<ref name="ParkhurstIX">((Cite book|last=Parkhurst |first=Helen |authorlink=Helen Parkhurst |title=Education On The Dalton Plan |url=https://archive.org/details/educationontheda028244mbp |accessdate=2007-12-01 |year=1922 |publisher=E.
