Excerpt from Methods of Teaching, Developed From a Functional Standpoint

The point of view from which the problems of teaching are discussed in this text is a functional one. It presupposes that all subject-matter has been created and preserved by the race to satisfy needs and solve problems, and that in the schools such parts of this subject-matter as satisfy the most fundamental needs are taught to pupils. But this is not done in indiscriminate order. Rather, in the main, any unit of subject-matter is best presented when the need for whose satisfaction it is preserved is potentially or actually present in the experience of the pupils. In accordance with this view the intrinsic function and the structure of units of subject-matter become of prime importance, involving a phase of methods of teaching to which relatively little attention has been paid in pedagogical literature. To complete a practical description of this conception as applied to teaching it has been found necessary to discuss the methods of arousing the appropriate needs and the conditions under which they are found present, and to investigate the methods pursued by experience both in satisfying these needs, to the aid of which subject-matter is invoked, and in securing the maximum degree of such satisfaction.

It is to be hoped that the point of view here developed will not be confused with the problem of school discipline concerning the authority of the teacher.
