Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biology is where many of science's most exciting and relevant advances are taking place. Yet, many students leave school without having learned basic biology principles, and few are excited enough to continue in the sciences. Why is biology education failing? 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?

The Motivation for Change"; (2) "Curricular Goals for the Near Future"; (3) "Impediments to Implementing Curricular Change: Texts, Tests, and Classroom Practice"; (4) "Impediments to Implementing Curricular Change: Training and Support of Teachers"; (5) "Recruiting Scientists, Teachers, Technicians, and Physicians"; (6) "Other Modes and Contexts for Teaching Science"; and (7)"Achieving National Goals: Dilemma and Resolution." Appended are an executive summary, a list of 127 references, a set of guidelines for use when handling animals, the "NABT Biology Teaching Standards," the National Science Teachers Association recommendations for teacher preparation and certification, a list of state alternative certification programs, a list of some special science programs, a list of targeted programs for women and minority groups, a list of recommended strategies, and a list of committee members.

Download or read book Advanced Biology written by Frank M. Wheat and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 581 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Advanced Biology Most adolescent boys and girls are more interested in themselves than in abstract problems. Although colleges emphasize mathematics and languages in their entrance requirements and say little about science, there has been a rapid growth in the number of sciences elected in the high schools. This is primarily due to the realization that science is more a part of the lives of pupils than other school subjects and an answer to more of their questions. Youth is more interested in making direct observations and reasoning from them than in abstract thinking. There is a concerted effort to ascertain the truth about phenomena and to find out how and why things happen. Science teaches a valid method of interpreting evidence and helps one to arrive at logical conclusions. In most secondary schools throughout the country elementary biology or general science is taught in the first or second year. There has been a growing demand for an advanced course in general biology to follow the elementary science course. This text has been written primarily to fill this need. The emphasis of the book is on problems relating to human welfare. The origin and principles of the development, structure, and functions of plants and lower animals are introduced mainly as a background for the proper understanding of human problems. An interesting and novel feature of the text is the historical treatment of many of the subjects, which gives the pupil a bird's-eye view of the entire subject without overwhelming him with unrelated facts. Teaching material is given at the end of each chapter, designed to help the pupil in organizing, in his own mind, the important principles discussed. The list of supplementary readings offers the pupil sources of information other than the text. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
