Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Method of Teaching, Modern Languages in Germany Being the Report Presented to the Trustees of the Gilchrist Educational Trust on a Visit to Germany in 1897, as Gilchrist Travelling Scholar In the year 1890 the Gilchrist Trustees established a Travelling Scholarship for Women Teachers, of the value of 50 tenable for one year. The object of the Scholarship was to enable the holder to spend three months in visiting schools in France, Germany, Denmark, Holland, Belgium, Sweden, or America, for the purpose of acquiring a knowledge of the methods of instruction and of the system of education adopted in those countries. The conditions to be fulfilled by the candidate were: - To hold either the Teacher's Diploma of the University of London, or the Certificate of the Syndicate for the Training of Teachers of the University of Cambridge, and have had at least two years' experience as a Teacher in a Secondary School or as a member of the staff of any Training College for Teachers of Elementary or Higher Schools. The award of the Scholarship in 1897 was entrusted by the Trustees to the Council of the Cambridge Training College for Women Teachers, who appointed Miss Brebner, a former student at the College. In accordance with the regulations for the Scholarship, Miss Brebner submitted a report to the Trustees, and they generously offered to contribute a sum towards the expenses of publication provided the Council of the Training College were of opinion that Miss Brebner's report was worthy of being published. The Council having unanimously decided that the report was, in their opinion, well worthy of being published, it is now accordingly published.
