Continuity is necessary to their application. When chapters or even small portions are omitted, continuity is often lost and study becomes fragmented. To maintain continuity teachers commonly adjust study to fit slower learners. This diminishes the amount of material covered and handicaps more apt learners.

How these manuals work Manuals for each program contain every issue in it and discuss each one separately. Each section begins with an overview and summary which also serves as a course outline. The following example is a portion of that in the opening issue of Our Land of Liberty. A lesson list including priority and approximate difficulty rating is also provided as well as a vocabulary log and a chronological index. The lesson reviews that follow the summary page are generally divided into two columns.
