Jerome Isenbarger Reihenfolge der Bücher (Chronologisch)

The authors believe that biological science significantly contributes to secondary education. This text aims to establish a foundation of principles that help students understand the importance of plant life in their environment. It emphasizes the practical application of botany, equipping students with knowledge that fosters social, civic, ethical, and aesthetic efficiency. Engaging in activities like window-plant culture, landscaping, and gardening enhances home attractiveness and offers fulfilling leisure pursuits. Additionally, understanding food, bacteria, and sanitation laws promotes personal health. The course is structured around specific aims and objectives, with problems and exercises designed to support these goals. Teachers are encouraged to consider local conditions, interests, and resources, such as parks and farms, to tailor the curriculum effectively. Learning activities, guided by the teacher, aim to cultivate significant biological ideas and scientific thinking. The organization of the course consists of a series of problems intended to lead students inductively to key generalizations. Each unit begins with an overview, and additional activities are provided for advanced students. While the unit arrangement is logical, it can be adapted to fit seasonal teaching needs. For further guidance on biology teaching, educators can refer to relevant literature.
