Excerpt from Habit-Formation and the Science of Teaching
From the practical side the need of a methodology of habit has been of late strongly evidenced. In two recent meetings of the National Education Association especial emphasis was laid on the drill side of education. But an abundance of drill or repetition does not necessarily produce the habits, intellectual or moral, which are desired. Such exercises conducted unskillfully often defeat themselves. A systematic and practical study of the subject should be helpful to superintendents and teachers alike.
