DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from French Lessons: A Demonstration of the Direct Method in Elementary Teaching The visit of Director Walter to this country is due to the invitation extended to him by the Trus tees of Teachers College, Columbia University. His recognized position as one of the foremost expo neuts of the Reform-method in modern language teaching made it desirable that he should find an Opportunity to illustrate his theories in practice, and the accompanying lessons accurately recorded by Miss Ballard are a faithful transcript of eighteen lessons, sixteen of which were given by him to a group of children previously unacquainted with French. The value of lessons recorded with the most nu compromising fidelity has been recognized for some time by the Secondary Education Department of Teachers College, and a series of Stenographic Reports on lessons of various types, and in various subjects, published by Teachers College in 1910, has afforded abundant food for thought and study to practical teachers.
