Book excerpt: Excerpt from Proceedings of the Ohio State Educational Conference, 1930: Tenth Annual Session; Keynote: Reaching the Individual DID you ever come out Of the classroom dejected, convinced that the hour had been wasted, and wondering why your hardest efforts that day drew blank results? Have you come out the next day blithe with the glow of success and a sense of supreme satisfaction? Both experiences have come to all teachers; one intuitively feels whether the pupils are in touch Spiritually, and if they are, all other desired effects of a classroom hour follow as a matter of course. What was wrong on the unsuccessful day? Probably you were Operating on facts long since learned but not recently gone over and linked to new thoughts and seen in new settings. The subject-matter for the day had no new and inspiring associations; it had become inert for you. The teacher cannot go ahead unless he sees subject-matter in changing and expanding relationships. He cannot teach even the same lesson alike twice; he must infuse it with new interest if he would hold the pupil. The teacher must also constantly expand his own study efforts into new fields; every enthusiastic hour in some other subject area is re ected usefully in his classroom hour. Comparison and allusion are great tools! The teacher must be quick, and not dead or dying, if he would attract the attention and respect of young life; to save his own soul he must be a ceaseless learner - a learner of youth, its buoyancies, its fatigues, its individual capacities and tendencies, the effect of a beautified school room, of a significant collection of books, of a genuine air of comrade ship, of an intelligent sympathy with the great human virtues. Cynicism can raise a laugh; it can also crush a delicate soul. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
