第 5 頁 - Children should be led to make their own investigations, and to draw their own inferences. They should be told as little as possible, and induced to discover as much as possible.
第 21 頁 - The next thing which education for efficiency should attend to is the imparting of the habit of quick and concentrated attention. Without this habit there can be no true economy of time. A prolonged attention is not natural to children, and should not be demanded of them; but quick and concentrated attention may be reasonably expected for brief intervals from every child, and as the age increases the possible period of close attention will grow longer and longer. The difference between adults in...

The difference between adults in mental efficiency is chiefly a difference in this very power of concentrated...
第 101 頁 - These are probably the, and, of, to, I, a, in, that, you, for. With their repetitioi they constitute more than one-fourth of all the words we write.
第 18 頁 - Do not expect too much precision of form at first; and above all things avoid being hypercritical or "fussy." When the student has gained control of his shorthand and has a little more familiarity with the forms, you will have plenty of opportunity to enforce exactness of form, and your explanations will then be better understood and become more effective.
第 29 頁 - Too many teachers, especially the younger and inexperienced, are apt to feel that they are not fulfilling their mission unless they put themselves in the attitude of critics.
