Reason & Art in Teaching Secondary-School English

This book considers problems in reading and writing and in the teaching of both. Chapter one, based on Tyler's method of inquiry into problems of curriculum and instruction, introduces the framework within which problems of planning and teaching are discussed in the remainder of the book. Chapters two through four deal with aspects of comprehending expository and argumentative prose, and chapter five deals with the writing of such forms. Chapters six, seven, and eight treat problems in the teaching of literature. The final chapter deals with language as a subject for study in its own right, rather than as an aid in the teaching of composition. (Aa).
