Book Description

Part one seeks to give a background that will enable the reader to use understandingly the various types of visual aids in ordinary teaching situations. Part two is concerned with the modern methods of educational procedure and emphasizes, particularly, practical ways and means of using visual materials for the enrichment of the various subjects in the curriculum. Part three is devoted to the problems of training teachers in a larger use of visual instruction. There is need for a single volume which not only gives general information about visual instruction, but which also gives teachers and supervisors concrete guidance in their daily work. Nothing contained within these pages is merely theoretical; all statements are based upon definite experiences in working with children of all ages. Care has been taken to check up every fundamental principle with the psychology vouched for by reputable experts in this field. - Preface.
