The Best Method of Examining School Mathematics, with Special Reference to the School Certificate Examination of the Oxford and Cambridge Schools Examination Board.

Extract

Ladies and Gentlemen,—Before this meeting commenced, Professor Lodge asked me if I was doing much examining now, to which I answered “No, none.” Then he asked what qualification I thought I had got for speaking on the best method of examining. I do not want to speak much on the best method, but I think it is time that members of this Association had the opportunity of blowing off a lot of steam, and I hope that many will have something to say about the school certificate examinations. My desire is that many different people should give their views and their criticisms.
