There la one general principle at the basis of all good teaching and it la that a person learns more roadily by assimilating the experiences which he himself encounters than in any other way, says Harold Stonier, Na tional Educational Director of the American Institute of Banking. This Institute is the educational section of the American Bankers Association through which 35,000 bank men and women are receiving scientific instruc tion In their chosen business. "The most advanced people in teaching today are emphasizing the Importance of activity on the part of the student,” he says. "In the school room of former days we often heard such phrases as, ‘Be still,’ 'Learn by heart,’ ‘Don't do that,' 'What does the hook sa y f The newer education asks, 'What do you think?,’ ‘What was your reaction to that experiment?,’ ‘What did you discover?,' 'What rea sons hare you for answet?' The New School Calls fur Action “The ‘expressing’ school is taking the place of the repressing and lis tening school. The classroom Is be coming an open forum, a studio of self- expression, a place of mental growth. The modern concepts of education are personal experimentation. Individual Investigation, critical discussion and creative self-expression. The pupil really learns only as he is able to assimilate the new meanings of facts and principles with his previous ex periences. Activities therefore con stitute tlio pivotal force around which are grouped the new factors In educa tion. The primary responsibility of the teacher Is to furnish a constant stream of activities which will afford the stimulating urge to mental growth. "Education is a process of experi encing. and the program of the insti tute Is so arranged as to give the greatest opportunity to gain by such experience. Through this we develop the art of thinking. Thinking has been described as the ability to han dle experience and to bring It to bear on a problem. Effective thinking arises when we are presented with the choice of conduct. Our previous experiences become helpful as we marshal them and bring them to bear upon the matter of our choice.” The students in the American Insti tute of Banking by reason of the fact that they continue to go on about their employment in banks while taking the banking association's study courses have an opportunity to combine learn ing with practical thinking and action.
