Excerpt from Laboratory Manual: Of First Year Science for High Schools
Laboratory work is an essential part of any course in science. The mental development acquired by pupils performing a series of experiments, interpreting their results, and carefully recording them, is of equal, if not more value, than the mere accumulation of facts. We cannot justify the existence of any course in the high school which has the acquiring of information as its only purpose. The performance of experiments is not a mechanical part of the course in which the use of the intelligence of the pupil plays no part. Too much em phasis can not be placed upon the fact that the pupil must perform experiments intelligently, using his head as well as his hands. Frequently beginners are inclined to think that laboratory work is merely entertaining.
