This essay is written by one who has traveled a little distance along pedagogical highways and is intended for those who have just set out on the same journey. It is hoped that the few guide‐posts established will help direct younger wayfarers. Others more advanced on the route will agree with the conclusions here set forth or at least with some of them. Teachers whose aim in the classroom is to cover the ground outlined in a textbook may find some profit in the point of view here presented. I am sure all will attest the fact that Pascal is right when he says: “Il y a bien des gens qui voient le vrai et qui n'y peuvent atteindre.”
