This research has been done in an effort to systematize some characteristic features in the development of the method of teaching clothing in Japan and to establish a basis for future studies.
The teaching method of sewing in the Meiji era is classified into two, that is, the method employed before the thirtieth of Meiji and that employed after that year.
This paper, which concerns with the first period, deals with two pioneers, Mr. Miyoji Hozawa and Mr.Tatsugoro Watanabe.
1. Materials for instruction were standardized, and the organic method took the place of the previous separative one.
2. Mr. Hozawa made a great contribution to analytical method (from sectional sewing to organic one) and to working out wall-charts.
3. Mr. Watanabe worked out the methods of miniature models (from making miniatures to actual sewing), Tsumoridachi, charts and catechism.
.4. These developments were based upon the introduction of organic teaching method, object-lessons, and developmental instruction.
