ABSTRACT
In the first national teacher training school in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH), founded by the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, pedagogy was a compulsory teaching subject. The official school report from 1888 stated that there were three books in use for teaching and learning pedagogical subjects, all by the same author from Croatia. Pedagogy was being developed as a practical teaching discipline in the teacher training schools and schools of theology, in accordance with the school system in the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy. During that period, teachers were the main representatives of the intelligentsia in BiH. Therefore, professional magazines published in BiH at the time were mostly from the field of pedagogy, as well as history of education. Historiographical planting of the history of education’s manuals used in schools for teaching this subject were also researched. After the Second World War, the teaching subject History of Education found its place in the senior years of the teacher training schools. In 1963, the Chair for Pedagogy was established at the Faculty of Philosophy Sarajevo. The lectures in the history of education were, however, given only in the period 1967–1969. The lack of teachers for this course was evident and it was only in the 1990s that it became regular part of the curriculum. The goal of this paper is to emphasise the importance of the history of education as a teaching subject, but also as a field that contributes to the general cultural traditions of the different ethnic groups living in BiH.
