Excerpt from An Experimental Investigation of the Book Method, Lecture Method and Experiment Method of Teaching Elementary Science in Elementary Schools
After a long and tedious struggle, elementary science (physics) has succeeded in establishing itself? In comparatively few cities of the United States. Though the tendency to force elementary physics into the elementary school curriculum appeared early, the question of a proper method or methods of teaching it is of rather recent origin. Many were, and still are, the arguments in favor of this or that method. Pious opinions, based on personal experience, narrow or broad, reigned supreme. The method was adopted or rejected without any serious endeavor to justify such action by scientific facts. As a result many methods, and many more combinations of methods sprung into existence.
