Excerpt from The Methods of Teaching Shorthand: A Practical Treatise on the Solutions of Classroom Problems

If teachers who read this book are moved to challenge their methods of instruction, or perhaps even find a few helpful suggestions, an inspiration or two, the work will not have been in vain.

In conclusion the author wishes to express his thanks to the many earnest teachers who worked with him in his courses at Adelphi College, and to the many friends who, by their words of encouragement made the work pleasurable. A word of appreciation is also due to Mr. Edwin A. Bolger, Commercial High School, Brooklyn, for his kindness in reading the proofs.

Excerpt from The Methods of Teaching Shorthand: A Practical Treatise on the Solutions of Classroom Problems

In the pages which follow there is outlined a plan of instruction for shorthand classes that, it is hoped, will furnish practical solutions to many of the problems that confront the teacher in the classroom. So far as known this is the first attempt to formulate the principles of shorthand instruction using modem principles of pedagogy as a basis; it will probably be followed by similar books dealing with the pedagogy of other commercial subjects, for preparation for a business career is every day becoming more important and it is only a matter of a very short time when the most efficient methods of imparting this knowledge or skill will be established. At the present time there are many ideas in this branch of education that are unthinkingly accepted and have for their raison d'etre only a questionable tradition.

The principles of instruction formulated in this book took form as a result of the work done in connection with the course which the writer gave for two years in the Methods of Teaching Shorthand and Typewriting at Adelphi College, Brooklyn. The teachers who were enrolled brought their classroom problems for discussion and the experience of the many was used to find the solution.
