Book excerpt: Excerpt from Botany for High Schools and Colleges This book is designed to serve as an Introduction to the Study of Plants. It does not profess to give a, complete account of the Vegetable Kingdom, but only such an outline as will best subserve the pur poses of the work. In its preparation there have been kept in view the wants of the large number, in the schools and out, who wish to obtain, as a branch of a liberal cul ture, a general knowledge of the structure of plants, with some idea as to their classification into the larger divisions and subdivisions of the Vegetable Kingdom. For this class of students and general readers, what is here given will in most cases be amply sufficient to enable any one to understand the greater part of the current biological literature, in so far as it relates to vegetable organisms. For the student who desires to pursue the subject further, or who intends to make botany a special study, this book aims to lead him to become himself an observer and investigator, and thus to obtain at first hand his knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of plants accordingly the presentation of the matter has been made such as to fit the book for constant use in the Laboratory, the text supplying the outline sketch, which may be filled up by each.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from General Botany: An Introductory Text for Colleges and Advanced Classes in Secondary Schools The first step in developing the course was the arranging Of laboratory and field work. The second was the working out Of the classroom discussions SO that the class work and the actual work with the plant materials would run parallel and supple ment each other. The laboratory directions have been used and revised at intervals during the past five years, and the textbook has been tested and revised and used in mimeographed form for the past two years. During this period the work has been pre sented to upward Of three thousand students and the course has been improved in every detail through the experience and con structive criticisms Of the eight instructors who have tried out various methods and devices and different arrangements Of the material with their classes at The Ohio State University. Suggestions and ideas for guidance in the selection Of subject matter have been derived from four sources. The first of these is the traditional course in general botany. This embodies the facts and principles which most botanists agree are essential for a foundation in the subject, and these are to be retained unless there is definite reason why they Should be set aside. The second source from which suggestions as to subject matter have come is the large body Of men engaged in the teaching or practice Of horticulture, agriculture, and forestry. These workers in the applied fields Of botany are the men who more than any others use information concerning plants, and certainly a course in general botany Should afford a foundation for their courses and their practice. A third source Of suggestions and criticism is the students to whom the course has been given. The questions they have asked.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Botany for High Schools Several chapters are devoted to a study of the peculiar and unusual forms of nutrition by certain plants that have become closely associated in this respect with other organisms, and by the fungi and bacteria, which, lacking chlorophyll, must obtain certain food by other means than that employed by the green plants. In this connection special attention is given to some of the more important micro-organisms which are beneficial to man because of certain products of their activity, or which are harmful as causal agents in disease. One chapter is devoted to the study of the more useful plants of the farm, orchard and garden or of those employed in industrial operations. Chapters are also devoted to the principles of plant develop ment and plant breeding, subjects which are of absorbing inter est to all and of special practical importance to the farmer and horticulturist.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines of Botany: For the High School Laboratory and Classroom (Based on Gray's Lessons in Botany) The present text-book has been prepared to meet a specific demand. There are many schools which, having outgrown certain now antiquated methods of teaching botany, find the best of the more recent text-books too difficult and comprehensive for practical use in an elementary course. The large number of subjects included in the modern high school course necessarily confines within narrow time limits the attention which can be devoted to any one branch. Thus, more than ever before, a careful selection and judicious arrangement as well as great simplicity and definiteness in presentation are all requisite to the practical success of any one course of study. This book offers (1) a series of laboratory exercises in the morphology and physiology of phanerogams, (2) directions for a practicable study of typical cryptogams, representing the chief groups from the lowest to the highest, and (3) a substantial body of information regarding the forms, activities, and relationships of plants and supplementing the laboratory studies. The practical exercises and experiments have been so chosen that schools with compound microscopes and expensive laboratory apparatus may have ample opportunity to employ to advantage their superior equipment. On the other hand, the needs of less fortunate schools, which possess as yet only simple microscopes and very limited apparatus, have been constantly borne in mind. Even when the cryptogams and certain anatomical features of the phauerogams are to lie dealt with, much may be accomplished with the hand lens, and, where applicable at all, it is in an elementary course usually a better aid to clear comprehension of objects examined than the compound microscope. Furthermore, the experiments covering the fundamental principles of plant physiology have been so far as possible arranged in such a manner as to require only simple appliances. In arranging a scientific text-book it has been a common practice to interpolate directions for observation and experiment in the body of the text. In teaching, however, the writer has found this arrangement highly objectionable. Both laboratory work and class-room exercises suffer from it. Accordingly, in this book instructions for laboratory study are placed in divisions by themselves, preceding the related chapters of descriptive text. The pupil with his book open before him in the laboratory will, therefore, not here be confronted by pictures and statements constituting keys to the work which he should carry out independently. Although it is not intended that each laboratory chapter should of necessity be finished before the following chapter of text is taken up, the examination of the plants themselves should naturally be kept somewhat in advance of the recitations which summarize and complement the information gained from that study.

This book was released on 2017-12-12 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Representative Plants a Manual for the Use of Students, of Botany in Secondary, Schools and Colleges IN the judgment of the author the study of plants ought to begin with the seed plants, as these forms are more or less familiar to the student and, therefore, appeal to him as something not altogether strange. They have a further hold upon him because many of the forms studied have close association with his everyday life. The first part of the manual, therefore, deals with the general subject of the seed plants, treating of them under the great divisional headings of Seeds, Roots, Stems, Leaves, Flowers, and Fruits. There is undoubtedly more material for study than can be covered in a half year, with a labora tory time of four hours a week, but it is believed the teacher should have abundant subject matter from which to select a course that will be applicable to the conditions prevailing in his school. There is much diversity of opinion, and consequently of practice, among those teaching botany as to the initial subject for the fall semester. Some begin with leaves, some with seeds, some with fall flowers and fruits, some with the algae (as pleurococcus). This order of beginning is based upon the assumption that the study of seed plants (part I of this manual) is taken up during the second or spring semester (the most logical procedure in the Opinion of the author). The study of plants, as stated above, ought to begin with these familiar forms, hence an ideal course in botany would start in February and end in January of the following year, the spore plants following the seed plants (tie. From the known to the unknown). About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Botany All the Year Round written by E. F. Andrews and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-15 with total page 680 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Botany All the Year Round: A Practical d104-Book for Schools The experiments described are for the most part very simple, requiring no appliances but such as the ingenuity of the teacher and pupils can easily devise, as will be seen by a glance at the list on pages 12 and 13 of the text. Teachers trained in normal schools, where all the material needed for their work is furnished by the State, and ample time allowed them, are often completely at a loss when transferred to country schools, where no provi sion is made for laboratory work, and the patrons grumble if called upon to buy so much as a drawing book or a hand lens. Too often they can think of no other resource than to drop botany from the curriculum altogether rather than depart from what they have been taught to consider the only scientific method. It is hoped that the present volume may suggest a better way out of the difficulty, and also that it may be a help to those who have not enjoyed the advantage of a technical training.
