This paper is designed to assist undergraduate and graduate students as they study the field of psychology. As a course supplement, it intends to guide students in their learning throughout the semester and beyond the scope of the present semester in the form of lifelong learning. This learning tool will help students in organizing psychological…

This textbook aims not to teach natural history, technically speaking, but to present such views of it as would be intelligible to the young student and to the general reader, and prepare them for, and lead them to engage in, a more extended study of the subject as it is presented in treatises more strictly scientific and in the works of nature.

In this textbook, by a few observations pupils are led to group all objects into the three Kingdoms of Nature--"Animal," "Vegetable," and "Mineral." Again, by observing differences, the Animal Kingdom is readily divided into five Sub-Kingdoms--"Vertebrates," "Annulates," "Mollusks,"…

This textbook is a science reader. Sections include: (1) Nature and Science (cause and effect, the laws of nature); (2) Material Objects: Mineral Bodies (states of water: ice, water, steam); (3) Material Objects: Living Bodies (living plants and living animals and their ability to grow); and (4) Immaterial Objects (mental phenomenon, psychology).

The author has created a series of books on the natural sciences carefully adapted to the different periods of the course of study, with this textbook intended for the older scholars in what are commonly called grammar-schools. At the same time they are suited to scholars who are advanced to a higher grade who have not gone through the previous…

This textbook is a course in natural science and astronomy. The contents include mechanical properties of bodies; mechanics of solids; mechanics of fluids; nature and production of sound; nature and transmission of light; excitation and characteristic effects of electricity; properties and magnets; theoretical astronomy; and descriptive astronomy.

The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife created the NatureMapping Program through a partnership with the Washington Cooperative Research Unit Gap Analysis Project (WCRUGAP). This program enables volunteers to collect environmental data that are valuable to governments and communities for problem solving and decision making. (Author/SAH)

This document presents activities and information related to Fibonacci numbers, which are based upon the Golden Ratio, in areas of the arts, sciences, and mathematics. The work is organized into eight chapters: (1) "Origins and Definitions"; (2) "Fibonacci Numbers in Nature"; (3) "Fibonacci Numbers in Art and…

A natural science resource booklet for teachers and students contains detailed materials for teaching and learning about Alaskan wildlife. Each of nine chapters provides background subject information, suggested learning activities, tear-out pages of review questions for students to answer, and supplementary notes for teachers which include…

This guide was developed for use by individuals with little or no botanical training who wish to identify native ferns of New York, New England, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. A random access key, developed by the author, provides multiple pathways for identification of 60 species in 29 genera of ferns. (CS)

This student text focuses on the social and geological history of a river basin. In addition to background information, the text includes student worksheets for 12 field trip stops in Ohio's Rocky River Valley. Material is designed to support a full-day field trip during which students work in small groups. Also included are a geological…

The third book in a series of natural science handbooks for Alaskan students focuses on Alaskan plantlife. The first chapter, on trees, gives general information about trees and explains how to identify and locate trees in the three main Alaskan tree families: pine, willow, and birch. The second chapter, on plants, describes 14 kinds of edible…

The organization of this book is based upon the principle -- generally accepted in schools today -- that every situation in the school requiring or stimulating social intercommunication or individual self-expression affords significant opportunity for developing language ability. These situations, which are vital and meaningful to the pupils, are…
