Excerpt from Standards in English a Course of Study in Oral and Written Composition for Elementary SchoolsThe beginning of this investigation (to discover a standard for the elementary schools) was made from a negative viewpoint. Following a conference with the teachers of freshman English, in which the purpose of the investigation was talked over at length, a questionnaire was sent to them. They were asked to state very concretely the important weaknesses found most conspicuously on freshman papers. They understood that they were to set down those weaknesses which, by their very nature, branded an English paper as unsatisfactory from the point of view of a teacher of freshman English. Conversely, of course, it followed that the absence of the weaknesses set down would mean work satisfactory from the same viewpoint.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
