It should be clear to the reader that no sharply defined body of new subject matter has emerged in the Thirty Schools, but its general substance and scope should be evident. Although the emphasis thus far in this chapter has been upon changes in what is learned, there have been incidental indications of changes in ways of learning. Innovations have involved not only the content of the curriculum, but methods of teaching as well. The two cannot be reported in complete separation, but attention is directed now to changes in the procedures by which the new work is carried on.
