Synopsis

Excerpt from A Course of Elementary Instruction in Practical Biology

All the simplest forms of life, which are easily accessible, are of very minute size and their study involves the use of high microscopic powers. The student who begins with them is therefore not merely introduced suddenly into a region in which everything is new and strange, but he has to familiarize himself with the use of unwonted means of exploration. By taking this road, the teacher (to whom the world of the microscope is so familiar that he is apt to forget its strangeness to students) sets himself against one of the soundest canons of instruction, Which is to proceed from the known to the unknown, and from familiar methods of learning to those which are. Strange.
