One of the lessons taught by the intensive war training experience was that rapid progress in learning can be made when men are trained for definite jobs. Hence a better result will be secured from the technical instruction for the Reserve Officers' Training Corps if the product needed by the army is first defined in terms of the jobs and operations which an officer may have to perform in the conduct of his daily routine. Such definitions will also assist college teachers in their regular work by supplying problems and other material which will enable them to connect their instruction with the broad field of application in which the mastery of scientific principles is objectively revealed. Instruction based on problems and job sheets of graded difficulty seem to offer as effective a means as can be found of developing the ability to do things in civilian life as well as in the army.
