Correlation of the Teaching of Geography and Mathematics*

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  03 November 2016

Extract

There is a healthy attempt to break down the barriers that have hitherto existed between the subjects that are taught in schools. At the same time it must, I think, be taken as an axiom that the several major subjects of the curriculum, especially in secondary schools, should be organised without reference to each other if each is to make use of its own distinctive discipline. A complicated articulation would be unworkable.

Both in content and form this address was written to be listened to, not to be published, and the author hopes that what has been described as “a blend of insult, urbanity and instruction” will be read in the spirit in which it was written and that readers will benefit from the instruction and pardon the insults.
