A classroom, whether it be in elementary or secondary school, is where the beginning of these ideas must come. A free informal discussion produces stimula- tion of thought and encourages students to take an interest in problems. It also relaxes the atmosphere of a classroom and students are given a chance to talk over their views on a subject with classmates and teachers. us.

Tied up with what is being taught dur- ing a class, these before and after school activities give a student a chance to pursue a particular interest further. They also provide the student with informal contacts with others who share the same in- terests. Often, extra-curricular activities give an instructor a chance to know a pupil better and vice versa. These activities are important for they teach a sense of fair play and good sportsmanship above and be- yond what is learned in the classroom.

Recitation in class is another example of the kind of vital preparation high school gives. Students must learn to organize their thoughts and present them logically for the benefit of their classmates. This also demands a student develop the ability to speak to a group without losing poise. “Student teach- ing” also provides an incentive for further investigation of a particular problem, and creates in the student participating a sym- pathy for and a more avid interest in teach- ing from a teacher’s point of view.
