Abstract
IN the leading article in NATURE of June 12, the Association of Teachers in Technical Institutions is invited to publish the philosophy of that branch of education in which its members are specialists. A series of principles is urgently required, and this the Association has formulated, partly philosophical, partly scientific. Control experiments to check our hypotheses are now in the process of performance through the medium of Lord Emmott's Committee of Inquiry into Technical Education, which was suggested, and the preliminary work undertaken by the A.T.T.I., but which is now under the control of an executive committee representative of industry, local education authorities, learned institutions, and technical teachers, with Mr. J. Wickham Murray as its honorary secretary. The guiding principles which are asked for will soon be in a form suitable for publication, and will then be submitted to the reading public for criticism and suggestion.
