Abstract
This second article on Household Education which had been taught at the Primary School attached to the Nara Women's Higher Normal School in the late Taisho and early Showa Eras deals with teaching methods. The findings revealed were as follows : 1. Teachers took "Dokuji-gakushu" and "Sogo-gakushu" as teaching of learning activities instead of hitherto inflexible teaching. 2. Sometimes they taught cooking by free menu instead of rigidly set menus. 3. Pupils learned the concept of efficiency through "time and motion study" and "fuel study". 4. During the war period, they put emphasis on culturing womanly virtues and arising nationalism through cooking classes.
