Is the Bell-Lancaster method really related to the Learning-by-teaching? That seems a bit of a mismatch, since the Bell-Lancaster system was a means of maintaining order by effective use of resources (i.e. the more-able students teaching the less) than as a pedagogical tool for the monitors themselves. 69.95.208.155 16:05, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

The Madras System and Lancasterian System were recognised as a bootstrapping technique that allowed teaching and learning by students. It had become quite widespread by the 1830's. DDB 07:45, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
