Abstract
THE report of the Sixth Committee to the Assembly of the League of Nations on the work of the International Organisation for Intellectual Co-operation stresses the importance of the educational questions with which the International Committee has been concerned, particularly those concerned with instruction in the aims and work of the League. Inquiries on the training of primary and secondary school teachers and the efforts made to facilitate the revision of school textbooks are of the greatest importance for the development of a spirit of world citizenship and the replacement of the partisan and nationalistic teaching of history and geography by a presentation alike scientific in method and worldwide in sympathy. Links are being created between university organisations and national educational information centres, and the report stresses the advantages obtainable from a new orientation of broadcasting and the cinema, with the assistance and guidance of teachers.
