Excerpt from The New Methods in Arithmetic
The present volume deals with somewhat the Same material, but from the point of View of the working teacher or student in a normal school seeking direct help in understanding the newer methods and using them under ordinary conditions Of classroom instruction. NO knowledge Of psychology is assumed as a requirement for profitable study Of this book. Discus sions Of the general psychological basis of the new methods and Of the evidence in their favor are here omitted or much Simplified. The treatment is constructive throughout. The practical consequences are treated more specifically and with abundant detailed illustration and application.
In order to aid the teacher still further in putting the new principles Of teaching into active Operation, each chapter is accompanied by exercises, which are even more detailed and concrete in nature than the text.
The choice Of textbook material for illustrations of current practice in the text and for various uses in the exercises requires a word Of explanation. As a matter Of scientific care and of convenience to the student almost all of this material is taken from the same textbook. Scientifically this is almost necessary; for a procedure that is correct in one total teaching plan might be weak or even wrong in a different total teaching plan. Each detail of method ought to be judged with reference to its setting. All the details presented here are parts Of one same teaching plan or textbook - all belong in the same setting.
