Excerpt from Physics Within the last twenty years the methods of teaching physics have been revolutionized. The reaction against the loose and desultory methods previously in vogue was started by the em phasis given to laboratory work in the new books which then appeared. The movement gained impetus from the influence brought to bear on 'the schools by the Harvard Entrance Require ments and the Report of the Committee of Ten. This pressure on the schools resulted in a demand for closer observation by the students, involving careful measurements. As far as science is concerned, the most important result of this introduction of laboratory work into the schools has been the development in the public mind of a widespread recognition of the fundamental principle that knowledge is real and living to the individual, only when it is founded on personally observed facts and personal experience.
