To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A voluntary fourth-year class, for example, was once induced to undertake a study and discussion of remote times and problems by a blend of truth and fiction, indefensible from the point of view of the historian, but justified for the teacher of social subjects by the interest aroused and energy unlocked. The syllabus is given in Appendix C. It is not, however, intended that literature and history should be used indifferently, or that the student should be given no guidance in discriminating be...tween truth and fiction. Such guidance is among the most urgent of his needs. The * here and now ', it has been said, must be the starting-point of study, and for information regarding the present the necessary prime source is the press. And of all forms of that suggestibility which con- tinued education must help to combat, the power wielded by the press of all parties is most calculated to call forth the amazement of a better day. This contention requires no elaboration here. The Continuation teacher must therefore place foremost among his duties an attempt to prevent the uncritical acceptance by his pupils of any and every statement made by his fellows, or met with in the press.
