This book presents an instructional method for designing and delivering classroom discussions known as "The Method of Recitation." The approach is based on principles of psychology and philosophy, which emphasize the learner's active role in constructing knowledge. The author, Charles McMurry, explores principles of teaching that have influenced the field of education, including those posited by thinkers like Herbart, Miller, and Rein. The book contends that the aim of instruction should be the comprehension and application of general notions, principles, and rules, and it advocates an approach that involves learners in a process of induction and deduction to reach these general truths. The author illustrates this method with engaging lesson plans that involve guided questions, observations, comparisons, and collaborative discussion. The book will appeal to educators seeking to enhance their teaching skills and deepen their understanding of the cognitive processes involved in learning.
