It may be that somewhat shorter lessons may be desirable, and more intensive study of each slide taken up by the room teacher. It may be objected that the plan I have outlined here goes too much into detail. I venture to assert that these details make so vivid an impression that they are remembered without apparent effort. Their' very detail makes them interesting for their intimate contact with the lives of the people. Personally I prefer the study of fewer countries, and those in much detail as types — an application of the project method so much in the public eye at present.
Indeed, our standard geographical texts owe much of their dryness to the fact that in the main they confine themselves to brief generalities, bald skeletons of fact, which from their very brevity are hard to remember and are acquired only with effort.
Such an outline as I have indicated may be applied in general to any country, with local modifications. In studying Asia we have concentrated on certain type-countries — Japan, China, India, Korea, Burma, and Ceylon; not only because they are the largest and most important countries, but also for the very material reason that we happen to possess large and excellent collections of slides dealing with those particular countries.
To summarize, we may profitably consider Japan under the following headings or main divisions :
Map study — influence of winds, currents, topography, coastline, location. Surface — views of mountains, volcanoes, typical landscapes. Reactions upon the life of the people — industries (fishing, rice-growing, tea, silk, pottery) ; transportation, both freight and passenger. Life in the country villages. Life in the larger cities. Typical home scenes and native
customs. Religious practices.
The pupils in the main will be interested in the pictures because of their own content. There is but little inattention and lagging of interest when the class is conducted by a capable teacher. An additional stimulus, however, is afforded in the fact that the pupils know they will be called on for written reports, a fairly exhaustive examination on the country, or certain phases of the lesson as a basis for language work. The study of these strange peoples gives a wealth of material for language lessons.
