necessary to provide a place where learners can work. The standard planning of quality provides such a place. The plus and minus signs automatically divide labor so that the worker can be taught by degrees, being set at first where great accuracy is not demanded by the work, and being shifted to work requiring more accuracy as he becomes more proficient. In this way even the most untrained worker becomes efficient, and is engaged in actual productive work. MEASUREMENT OF TEACHING AND LEARNING.--Under Scientific Management the results of teaching and learning become apparent automatically in records of output. The learner's record of output of proper prescribed quality determines what pay he shall receive, and also has a proportionate effect on the teacher's pay. Such a system of measurement may not be accurate as a report of the learner's gain,--for he doubtless gains mental results that cannot be seen in his output,--but it certainly does serve as an incentive to teaching and to learning. RELATION OF TEACHING IN SCIENTIFIC MANAGEMENT TO ACADEMIC TRAINING AND VOCATIONAL GUIDANCE.[60]--Teaching under Scientific Management can never be most efficient until the field of such teaching is restricted to training learners who are properly prepared to receive industrial training.[61] This preparedness implies fitting school and academic training, and Vocational Guidance. LEARNER SHOULD BE MANUALLY ADEPT.--The learner should, before entering the industrial world, be taught to be manually adept, or fingerwise, to have such control over his trained muscles that they will respond quickly and accurately to orders. Such training should be started in infancy,[62] in the form of guided play, as, for example, whittling, sewing, knitting, handling mechanical toys and tools, and playing musical instruments, and continued up to, and into, the period of entering a trade. SCHOOLS SHOULD PROVIDE MENTAL PREPAREDNESS.--The schools should render every student capable of filling some place worthily in the industries. The longer the student remains in school, the higher the position for which he should be prepared. The amount and nature of the training in the schools depends largely on the industrial work to be done, and will be possible of more accurate estimation constantly, as Scientific Management standardizes work and shows what the worker must be to be most efficient. VOCATIONAL GUIDANCE MUST PROVIDE DIRECTIO
