SIR JOSIAH STAMP ON "METHODOLOGY"
FLUENCY VERSUS ACCURACY
Sir Josiah Stamp addressed the Educational Science Section on "The Developmenta Required * [In' Post-Primary Education from pin World and Economic Point for Vlow."
He said that he did not favour. a greater degree of technical educa tion or vocational guidance In secondary schools. He preferred to see an entirely general education given in those schools. On the other hand, he did not agree with the older vlow that there was some- thing peculiarly sacred about classical education which would make a boy equal to every demand In life. He did not consider that economics was a good schot sub- ject, and applied economics, wher school children were encouraged debate in favour of one school economic thought or another, were
ก
curae. There were. however, certain very important allied sub- jects which would prepare a boy's mind, and which might help to rid the world of some of its present shortcomings. One of these was geography, which, instead of being regarded sa a secondary mental exercise, ought to necupy a first- class position. He also regarded modern history na of very great importance, but it must be taught without the glorification of any particular nation.
