Présentation de l'éditeur
Tms book is intended primarily to be used in the instruction of young men and women who are preparing themselves in colleges and normal schools for careers as teachers of one or more of the natural sciences; but it is hoped that it will be scarcely less useful to science teachers now in service and to superintendts of school systems and principals of public and private secondary schools whose duties involve the direction and supervision of science instruction. It is thought also that the book contains much that will be of value to professors of the several natural sciences in colleges and normal schoob, in helping them to impart to prospective teachers of their sciences the modem social viewpoint and the true scientific spirit that are so necessary for real success in teaching the sciences to boys and girls of high school age. The volume is a natural outgrowth of a long career as high school teacher of science, hi school inspector, and college teacher of education. It embodies the results of constant study of the natural sciences and of psychology, especially in its applications to science teaching and high school administration, carried on during the course of this career. It attempts to show in a concrete and practical way how the findings of modem e:qerimental and educational psychology may be aflied in science teaching. The first eleven chapters and the last one develop and formulate principles that are fundamental to all science training; the others are devoted to the explanation of principles and methods of teaching that are especially applicable to the several sdences of the high school curriculum.
