HISTORY TEACHING IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS
“LESS MILITARISTIC” Press Association. DUNEDIN, Saturday. A subcommittee of teachers, reporting to the Dunedin branch of the Educational Institute on the teaching of history in public schools, stated that such teaching is to-day showing a decided tendency to place more emphasis on the social and economic side and less on the militaristic side. The growth of civilisation is given prominence consistent with the capacity of young minds to absorb. The ideals of the League of Nations should be taught in all schools and definite teaching given thereon. The provision made for world history teaching was a valuable feature of the latest history syllabus and more ought to be done in that direction.
