Book excerpt: Excerpt from Teaching Manual and Industrial Arts: A d104book for Normal Schools and Colleges Teaching Manual and Industrial Arts is intended as a text for use in normal schools and colleges. Its primary aim is to assist in the making of necessary connections between the more general courses in educational psychology and theory of teaching and the special work of practice teaching in manual and industrial arts. While the discussions of the text largely presuppose a knowledge of psychology as a prerequisite, mature students and experienced teachers of the manual or industrial arts who have had no psychology may be expected to pursue the reading of the text successfully by devoting somewhat more time and attention to the reference readings suggested at the close of each chapter. Some experience with manual or industrial arts subject-matter is necessary for an appropriate appreciation of the discussions of the text. Lest the author be accused of inconsistency in the matter of his choice of philosophical bases for the various discussions, he would state that he has intentionally made use of both the analogies of dualism and of the conception of contiguity and continuity. (Cf. Dewey's "Democracy and Education," especially Chapter XXV.) The accompanying charts should make clear the grounds for justification assumed by the author in the matter of bases. Why there should of necessity be considered any lack of contiguity and continuity in the conception of dualism, and vice versa, philosophy has not been able to prove. (Cf. "Dualism," The New International Encyclopaedia for a brief statement.) About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
