Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Question as a Measure of Efficiency in Instruction: A Critical Study of Class-Room Practice The question and answer type Of recitation, when rightly used, is more fruitful for the teaching process than any of these three recognized media Of instruction, the topical recitation, the written lesson, or the lecture. The topical recitation is a method em ployed for repeating facts that are presented and systematized by someone else; the written lesson is a test of the facts a stu dent possesses and, at best', his method Of classifying them; the lecture is a pouring in process. The question and answer recitation may become a conversation hour between teacher and pupils, a period Of richest opportunity for true education, i.e., the leading out of what is in the mind of the pupil. It can be a time when the mind Of the teacher comes into closest touch with the will and the emotions Of his pupil, guiding and directing him-towards standards Of thought and action far beyond the ken Of youth. It can be a time of richest opportunity for the teacher to ascertain just where to set his pupils adrift in thought life to do independent intellectual work in accordance with their ability, and SO to grow in the power to think and to act for themselves. It can be the time for the teacher to discover the possible avenues Of a pupil's own initiative and to give him the right impetus.
