"The teacher is tempted to pour into the minds of the children a load of new facts, and his teaching resolves itself into 'talk a little, chalk a little, talk a little more', while the children remain passive, and often become indifferent and mischevious. Any lesson, to be effective, must be the children's as well as the teacher's, and more the children's than the teacher's." John Eades, 'The Dalton Plan for Elementary Schools'. Chapter 10 in Parkhurst (1920) _Education on the Dalton Plan_, p199.
