A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This text has been prepared for the purpose of furnishing the pupil with the essential facts about tools and their uses. However efficient the instruction may be and however attentive the pupil, it is impossible for him to fully grasp and comprehend during a demonstration the names of tools and technical terms, most of which are new to him. This applies with equal force to the manner of using the tools and to the methods of working. The function of the text is to supplement the instruction of the teacher. It is intended to gather up and arrange in a logical order the facts which the pupil has has already been told. By this means these facts will become fixed in the mind of the pupil and he will work with a better understanding and make greater progress. It is believed that the text can be used to the greatest advantage by requiring the pupil to read up the subjects presented in class immediately after the close of the lesson. Frequent rapid reviews and occasional written tests are very effective.
