Extract

Twenty years ago it was anticipated that “Standard Form” would prove the ideal method for decimal processes. It was designed to abolish the mechanical teaching of a mechanical rule and to base arithmetical instruction on a conscious grasp of principles. A wide and extended trial has not realised the anticipation, indeed the method appears to-day to have many followers but few champions.
