Excerpt from How We Learn: A Short Primer of Scientific, Method for Boys
His little book is intended for the use of scholars of about sixteen, who for some terms at least have been trained to work out exercises in induction of the kind described and illustrated in the pamphlet Scientific Method in Schools. It sums up and systematizes, and to a certain extent develops, what they have been learning incidentally and partially. But it contains the very minimum that a pupil of sixteen should know, and it is suggested that the teacher would do well, before setting a section to be studied and learned at home, first to give an oral lesson expanding and illustrating the points treated in that section. The exercises at the end are intended to serve as written home Work.
