Excerpt from Studies in the Principles of Geography: Following the Problem Method This little book represents an attempt to develop a working knowledge of some of the principles of geography through the problem method of attack. It is the outgrowth of classroom experience and has been in the process of evolution through a number of years. The method of attack and development follows as nearly as possible the natural steps in the thinking process. The aim has been not to sacrifice pedagogical considerations for the sake of a logical arrangement, but to correlate the two in the best possible way. It will be noted that there arc ten groups of problems. Each group is introduced by the statement of the large idea, the central thought running through the entire series of problems. The main problems of this book involve what may be considered a list of basic minimum essentials in the principles of geography. The conclusions, which are an essential part of each problem, require the formal statement of a large list of geographic principles, each vitally connected up with some problem full of life interest. The related problems are calculated to give the student drill on principles previously learned, and to afford opportunity to recognize old principles in new associations. Frequently it will be found that the related problem is really a corollary to the main problem, rather than a mere practice exercise. It may not be out of place here to state that this syllabus was awarded first place by the National Council of Normal School Presidents and Principals in a competition among syllabi submitted from thirty-seven normal schools in twenty-four states.
