Rabindranath Tagore established the new school of "Shantiniketan" on 22 December 1901, near Bolpur in West Bengal (India). Tagore was an educator and forerunner of the new education; he was also a great writer and even won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1913. However, outside India, very few people know about his role as an educator. This article presents in detail how Tagore created this school and what methods he used: the educational-didactic principles and the active and organizational principles.
