Book excerpt: Excerpt from Laboratory Practice for Beginners in Botany In order to make the study of botany more effective under the first head, it seems best to bring the student into imme diate contact with the object itself, in the laboratory; and not only that, but to avoid interposing apparatus, as far as possible, between the student and the object to be studied. For this purpose, the writer has practically confined his attention to the larger plants. Desiring also to cultivate, as far as possible, the ability to draw correct inferences from exact observations, the writer has deemed it best to consider the subject from a somewhat different point of view from that usually adopted, and has attempted to make the morphological study bear fruit in this direction. The great difficulty in most laboratory work is to make the students realize the significance of the morphological details. They may observe accurately and record their observations carefully, but what of that? The physiological significance is overlooked - even in many cases where experiments are used to illustrate physiological phenomena. That the plant is a living thing, is a fact that must be borne actively in mind, both by teacher and by student. The plant must obtain the materials for its support, and to do this it must compete with other plants; it must protect itself against or seek the aid of animals it must obtain the energy and materials to reproduce its kind, and endeavor to place its offspring where they may have a proper chance for development; and, destitute of a mind as it is, it exercises an ingenuity, so to speak, that is of no mean order. We must, then, think of the plant as a living, working, struggling being with a single object in life, viz. To reproduce its kind and every variation in structure, be it great or little, is to be examined to determine, if possible, its use or history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Laboratory Practice for Beginners in Botany The writer has been frequently asked to express to others his ideas on the subject of the teaching of botany in the schools. He has been led to consider the problem from a number of different points of view and to try a number of different methods in attempting a satisfactory solution. After experimenting with a number of classes of beginners both in the preparatory schools and in the university, he has arrived at the following conclusions: - Botany in the preparatory schools should be taught - 1. As a science, to cultivate careful and accurate observation, together with the faculty of making from observations the proper inferences; and 2. As a means of leading the mind of the student to interest itself in the phenomena of nature for its own further development and profit. In order to make the study of botany more effective under the first head, it seems best to bring the student into immediate contact with the object itself, in the laboratory; and not only that, but to avoid interposing apparatus, as far as possible, between the student and the object to be studied.

This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Laboratory and Field Manual of Botany The authors fully recognize the fact that no set Of directions of only moderate fullness can tell the student all that he needs to know about choice Of material, apparatus, and manipulation. It is assumed that much is left to be explained by the instructor, and constant mention is made Of general and special laboratory guides which may be consulted for needed details. The student in the laboratory is not to consider himself as merely the corroborator Of facts already ascertained; he is to interrogate mainly not the instructor, not the manual, but the plant itself. The directions here given are, therefore, for the most part suggestions on methods Of procedure and indications as to the plants or parts Of plants in which to look for desired information.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Laboratory Guide for General Botany This laboratory guide is intended for the use of students in their first course in universities and colleges, or other institutions doing work of similar grade. It is not a teacher's manual, and therefore does not include information as to laboratory equipment, the purchase and care of apparatus and materials, nor references to the literature. The author believes that botanical instruc tion in America has now reached a stage where such directions to university instructors are no longer necessary nor appropriate.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Laboratory Notebook of Elementary Botany The following course of elementary botany has been designed in order to give the student a general idea of the principles of the science, rather than a comprehensive survey of the whole vegetable kingdom. In a short course of this nature it is impossible to include examples of every group, and therefore those types have been selected with which it is most important that the student should become acquainted.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Laboratory Manual of High School Botany The present work is intended solely as a laboratory guide in connection with lectures or a text-book. The matter has, in consequence, been presented in the briefest and most compact form consistent with this purpose. The aim is to put the student to work quickly and to keep him at work intelligently. Ex planation has been added only when it seemed essen tial to the proper handling of the laboratory work. The material and the teacher have been regarded as the two important facts in the work. The laboratory directions, it is hoped, will bring the student into direct contact with the material, and will relieve the teacher of a large amount of drudgery, thus giving him time for real teaching.

But more frequently the dried material is too hard, too friable, or too brittle to be satisfactorily studied in this way, and some preliminary treatment is necessary.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Laboratory Manual of Botany: Outlines and Directions for Laboratory and Field-Work in Botany in Secondary Schools This manual has been prepared in harmony with these convictions. In all his directions the author has aimed to make the study of botany full of meaning, of pleasure, and of profit to the young people who are to study the subject; to lead them to observe constantly and accurately; to form well-founded judgments from their observations; to inspire them with an intelligent and abiding love for nature; and to have them see and appreciate the ways in which the lives of plants are allied to their own lives. The manual is divided into two parts: Part I considers plants from the view-point of their physiology and ecology, while Part II considers their structure and evolution as they have developed with reference to the problems of nutri tion and reproduction. Either part may be used as the basis of a course in botany. When both parts are used, covering a year's course, the second may precede the first, if this order seems preferable. In either case Chapter I is essential as an introduction. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
