Excerpt from The Teaching of General Science Never before in this country has there been so insistent a demand for a more thorough and more comprehensive system of instruction in practical science. Forced by recent events to compare our education with that of other nations, we have suddenly become aware of our negligence in this matter. Now industrial and educational experts and commissions are united in demanding a change. While on the whole there has been a steady increase in the amount of time given to science work in the secondary and elementary schools, the attention paid to it, especially in the elementary schools, has been somewhat spasmodic, and its administration has been more or less chaotic. This is not due to lack of interest on the part of school officials but to their dissatisfaction with the methods of instruction employed. There is no doubt that superintendents would gladly introduce more science if they felt sure that the educational results would be commensurate with the time expended. This is indicated by a recent survey of about one hundred and fifty cities in seven states of the Central West. The survey shows that two-thirds of them have nature-study in the elementary schools and that all are requiring some science for graduation from the high school. The average high school is offering three years of science. Since 1900 there has been a greater increase in the percentage of students enrolled in science in the high schools than in any other subject with the one exception of English. Moreover, greater attention is now being paid to the training of teachers in methods of presentation of science.

Excerpt from General Science The object in such a course of study as in all other courses of study should be to teach the pupil to live, regard less of whether he withdraws from school at an early date or whether he continues his education through the high school and college. We should always be teaching a pupil what he needs and what he can use and a general science course well taught fulfils this ideal admirably.

Excerpt from A Textbook in the Principles of Science Teaching There are several ways in which the book may be used in the instruction of prospective science teachers. First, it may be used as a text for a broad general course in the fundamental principles of science teaching, intended for all those who are preparing for the teaching of any of the special sciences. In this case the chapters of general interest should receive the most study and attention; and those de voted to the special sciences, Chapters XII to XXIII, should be touched more lightly, being used for the most part as bases for special reports to the class by those most interested in the particular sciences of which these chapters treat. Second, the book may be used as a text in a special course on the teaching of any one of the sciences. In this case the greater part of the book would be passed over rapidly to de ve10p the general attitude and point of view; and the chapters on Biology or on Geography, Physics, Chemistry, or General Science would be studied intensively and supplemented by copious readings and reports based on references chosen from the book lists appended to the chapters so studied.

Excerpt from Elements of General Science Earth's Crust there is an added tepic, The Earth in Rela tion to other Astronomical Bodies. Considerable new mate rial on nutrition and proper care of the human body is added. Particular attention has been given to relations which the studies bear to household problems as well as to those of the community and of the industries. At the beginning of each chapter a list of Questions for Discussion is given. It is expected that when beginning the work of each chapter the pupils and teacher will read and discuss the questions briefly. These questions recall pupils' previous experiences and set up new problems whose brief consideration gives significant purpose to the text and experimental work which follows. After the chapter has been studied, the questions provide the best means of review. About fifty additional illustrations are included.

Excerpt from Introduction to General Science: With Experiments However much we may theorize, and try to impress the youth with the proper conception of man's place in nature, the individual young person will continue to consider himself as the center of the universe. Immediate needs and close surroundings are what interest him. It is not until he has learned about these, and has followed back to their sources and causes some of the phenomena which have seemed simple and matter of fact, that he begins to realize that the distant forces have more effect upon his existence than the near-by, everyday happenings. Perhaps it is well, then, at the begin ning of science study, to take his point of view, and lead him to follow each apparently simple need or desire, and to arouse in him the habit of seeking for a cause, and looking beyond the present and immediate to the future and the ultimate. It may be truly said that in a General Science course, All roads lead to Rome, for the course may be commenced any where, and it will lead to a study of all science. In fact, if the pun may be forgiven, in a General Science course, All roads lead to roam, and the pupil, after he is started, needs but to be guided. That is the purpose of this book. It is not easy to teach a course in general science success fully. There is always the temptation to specialize in some particular part, usually the part which the teacher likes best, and about which he knows most. If this temptation is not resisted, the course ceases to be general. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from A Text-Book in General Science Education for the present life of the child should be the chief purpose of our schools. This book seeks to carry out this principle so far as science is concerned. We are living in the midst of a great scientific age. Applications of science more and more dominate our life, and they will continue to do so in ever-increasing degree. Any sane system of education must see to it that boys and girls living in the midst of these applications, which form such an important part of their everyday life, are educated in terms of this environment, in order that they may better appreciate it and adapt themselves to it. This book is an attempt to make clear to boys and girls answers to some of the ques /tions naturally arising in their minds concerning the com mon applications of science.

Excerpt from The Teaching of Science The title of the book requires a word of explana tion. The addresses were, for the most part, de livered to teachers of physics and chemistry. Why then should not the title be The Teaching of Phys ical Science? Although the illustrations were of necessity chosen mostly from physical science, the addresses were a constant appeal to all science teachers to teach science rather than special sciences. The addresses are arranged in chronological rather than logical order. Although the same theme is often repeated, the treatment is progressive as befits the history of the growth of certain ideas among teachers.

Excerpt from Junior General Science When I was a boy in a country school a forward-looking teacher placed in the school a textbook entitled "Natural Philosophy." That book was a storehouse of information. It described in simple language many examples of natural phenomena. It was an introduction to the science of interesting everyday things. As a result of the study or reading of this book many of us began to understand in a new way the world about us. It contained little mathematics. Such mathematical problems as it did present could be solved by arithmetic and were not so difficult as to detract from the interest of the book. In the intervening years I have always regarded that book as most valuable. I have heard one of our most distinguished physicists say that books of this kind do more to popularize science for the masses of the people than any similar books of severer scientific pretension. Since that time applied science has been greatly extended, so that it touches our common lives at more points than formerly. Mr. Daniel R. Hodgdon, a science teacher of experience, has prepared a book similar to the one I have briefly described, as a contribution to the field of general science as it exists to-day. It is simple, it has little mathematics, it is free from technicalities, it makes no pretense of being exhaustive, and it is, moreover, very interesting. The kind of information that this book and similar books contain should be in the possession of all our young people.

Excerpt from The Teaching of Science in the Elementary School The part that science plays in modern life is so vital that science teaching must inevitably have an important place in the school curriculum. There has been some confusion regarding the term to be used to cover the work in science in the elementary school Nature-study' has been the word in most common usage. But there is considerable misunderstanding as to what is included under this term. In recent years it has been used in an ever-broadening sense till now the word is used by many educators to include all phases of science adapted to the elementary school. But among people in general the common notion still prevails that nature-study includes only the study of Wild plants and animals. So that, considering all sides of the matter, it has seemed better to the author to adopt the word science instead of nature-study, as tending to involve less mis understanding and as helping to establish an appropriate and standard term.
