In the latter part of the eighteenth century few

EDUCATION THAT EDUcArEs.
Practical Tests Better than Mere
Memorizinu in Schools.

Practical Tests Better than Mere
Memorzine in Schools.
Educators are growing fonder and
and fonder of the idea of making edu-
cation practical. In Brooklyn a new
plan has been adopted for examina-
tons for graduation from high
schools, and students standing IS
based more largely on class work
through the year and less on the re-
suit of closing tests. Each principal
conducts examinations at his own dis
erection, but the emphasis is thrown
upon practical ability instead Of on the
mere accumulation of facts. The class
work will be made to turn on the
power to think rather than to memoir
lie. The Brooklyn Eagle" says:
For instance, in languages, the ex-
aminations will be designed to test the
pupils power to read at sight and TO
translate into idiomatic English. In
English literature knowledge Of the
history Of literature and good taste in
reading will be counted rather than
knowledge of any text book. In Eng
fish composition the test will be tlHe
ability to make clear synopsis Of a
composition, and to write clearly and
accurately, while the long-despised
and neglected spelling will be coun ed
In science the number of experiments
performed and the students skill,
neatness and accuracy in performing
them will hold first place, and in his-
tory the knowledge of the sequence
of important events and ability to
trace causes to results will be tested
by the examinations"
Everywhere there is a reaction from
the craze for bigness, and quality"
not quantity" is again becoming the
desideratum. Nowhere is this change
more important and more hopeful
than in the field of education. In trav-
cling through life only such baggage
is desirable as can be utilized for the
needs of the journey.
