Gradually, industry emphasized the economic value of the subject and advocated that it be taught in the public schools. Instruction was offered in instrumental or geometric drawing, freehand drawing and industrial design. Exactness and perfection in graphic representation were emphasized, and dictation was the chief method employed in teaching.83 leavesenghttp://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/Art--Study and teaching (Secondary)--United States || High schools || Art--Study and teaching (Secondary) || Unites StatesThesis--Fine artsThesis
