Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Needlework Without "Specimens" The Modern Book of School Needlework AS many books dealing exhaustively with needlework are already in existence, some apology seems needed for the present work, or, at all events, some explanation of the attitude towards the subject here adopted. The preparation of the book has been undertaken partly in response to inquiries for a sewing-book on similar lines to Knitting without Specimens, and partly because the plan it suggests has been proved to have an inspiring effect on needlework teaching. Sewing is an occupation which has lately been the subject of much thoughtful inquiry by teachers and educationists generally, and their investigations have resulted in a desire to obtain from the subject more of living interest, of educational value, and of practical utility. The feeling has been steadily growing that a great deal of purposeless work, and far too much time, labour, and material have been expended on working the isolated, monotonous, and abstract exercises known as Specimens. This dreary plan of approaching the subject has not only failed to kindle that permanent interest in. Needlework which alone is the proof of successful teaching, but it has' often also produced an actual distaste for the subject. Further, the educational value of such a plan was almost negligible. The method of teaching was in complete contradiction to the fact that a child thinks in order to do. The girl had no desired goal to reach, no inspiring motive such as the construction of an article interesting to herself, and therefore the need for thought was reduced to a minimum. The Specimen plan was in contradiction, moreover, to the educational maxim that teaching should proceed from the concrete to the abstract, for it ignored the concrete (i e., the actual garment or article), which was within the sphere of the child's understanding and interest, and not only commenced, but frequently ended with a long series of abstract exercises.
