In the Renaissance Period,people became interested in higher education.They wanted to
learn the ancient languages such as Greek and Latin-languages that were used in the old
times,and study mathematics,science,and so on.Many universities were set up during the
16th century.
University education was a privilege of the rich.Girls were not allowed to attend and
poor people could not afford to go.A member of a wealthy family could attend university at
the age of ten.He might study in different universities and since the teaching was all done in
Latin,it didn't matter which country he studied in.It was not unusual for a young boy study
one year in Italy and another in France without speaking either French or Italian.
It was possible in the 16th century to complete university without learning how to read or
write.Since books were handwritten,there was not enough to give one to each student.Often,
only the teacher had a book.He would read to the students who would memorize what he said.
Tests were oral,not written.In fact,many students finished school without ever writing a
word.
For the not so wealthy,grammar schools were built in towns.They learned basic
grammar and mathematics,and took part in Bible study.At home,girls learned washing,
cooking,dancing,and how to take care of their family.Poor children rarely attended school.
The Renaissance was a time when learners did not simply accept what they were old.
They did scientific experiments themselves to search for answers to the mysteries of the space.
Copernicus calculated that the earth turned around the sun but was afraid to publish his
works for fear that the Church would punish him.Galileo later supported this.The watch,the
telescope and some others were some inventions of this period.
