This little book is the outcome of many attempts to organize the preliminary professional work of Training College Students. It jdoes not offer in any sense a theory of education, its purpose is much more modest, viz., to give a first survey of the variety of activities which enter into the complex work of class teaching. The different chapters are based upon an effort to treat these activities in isolation, in the belief that the student wi Ubest understand his business if he attacks them one by one. In this way he feels that he is making definite forward steps, and, as lessons grow more complex, he has a basis for their intelligent appreciation and criticism. Moreover, in thinking out his own lessons, he is in a position to determine his procedure with certain principles more or less clearly in mind. As actually worked out, the topics are always illustrated by demonstrations, followed by general discussion, in which the attention of the student is directed to the particular points raised. The book is not, of course, a substitute for the study of special method, where procedure is modified in accordance with the nature of the subject-matter :nor is it intended to supplant courses in psychology. It is rather a general preparation for both. We have felt it important to give the student, as soon as may be.
