To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Text- books are to provide it. Recitations are to find out whether or not 27 it has been taken. Memory must retain it, and examinations must be given to test the knowledge state of pupils. Since knowledge is the one thing needful, the quantity of knowledge which can be compressed into the memory of a school child becomes a matter of vast importance. Courses of study are written chiefly, in many cases, to indicate the quantity which every good retailer of knowl- edge must succeed in lodging in t...he memory of each child. To cover the prescribed amount of work is the mark toward which the teacher is made to press, and toward which she is usually, in such a system, overpressed. That the superintendent and the principals may know that teacher and pupils are handling the required stint of knowledge, that teachers may know that pupils are stocking them- selves with it and retaining it in undiminished state, that parents may be assured that their children are amassing the fixed heaps of prescribed facts, that the children themselves "may know how much they know," great reliance is placed upon examinations.
