Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Symposia of the Society for the Study of Human Biology, Volume VI: Teaching and Research in Human Biology covers the proceedings of the 1964 Symposium on Teaching and Research in Human Biology, held at the Anatomy Department of University College, London. This book is composed of eight chapters, and starts with an overview of the development and scope of human biology, with an emphasis of its benefit as a part of education at various levels. The subsequent chapters survey the determining factors for the inclusion of human biology at one level or another in the school curricula. This inclusion entails the incorporation of human biology into the curricula of teacher training colleges and into those of university departments of education. The discussion then shifts to the inclusion of human biology course in teaching general biology, medical education, and postgraduate research. The final chapters examine the professional training given to human biologists. This book will prove useful to human biologists, physicians, teachers, and postgraduate students.

How can reform be accomplished? This book presents information and expert views from curriculum developers, teachers, and others, offering suggestions about major issues in biology education: what should we teach in biology and how should it be taught? How can we measure results? How should teachers be educated and certified? What obstacles are blocking reform?

Download or read book Human Biology and History written by Malcolm Smith and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-12-18 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The biology of people in the past - individuals, families and populations - is an intriguing and rapidly expanding field of historical study. Recent developments in the analysis of biological material can now be applied to historical specimens to reveal the activities and environments of individuals who lived hundreds or even thousands of years ago. This book explores the interface between human biology and history, bringing together historians, biological anthropologists and archaeologists who share a common concern with the interpretation of the biology of historical and prehistoric people. It illustrates how questions about the past formulated by historians and others in the pursuit of their own interests can be illuminated by the application of biological theories and methods. A broad range of themes is covered, from survival and reproduction to the evidence for environmental and nutritional effects on growth the development and the structure and mobility of past populations. This unique interfacing of human biology and history presents fresh and engaging perspectives to students, teachers and researchers in the fields of human biology, anthropology, archaeology and history. It provides an audit of the many areas in which these subjects inform each other and will foster the wider understanding of science in the humanities by demonstrating the value of applying scientific techniques and inferences to the historical discourse.
