Excerpt from Whipple's Animal Analysis: A Method of Teaching Zoology; To Which Is Added an Appendix, Containing Directions for Forming a School Cabinet A Few teachers of Zoology, favorably situated, are able to get their pupils to study animals instead of books; the majority, although theoretically opposed to an almost exclusive use of books, practically find no other way in which to secure regular and constant work from their classes. For the purpose of obviating this difficulty, the "Analysis of Animals" has been prepared, and it is believed that, if rightly used, it will enable teachers satisfactorily to combine the study of books and the study of nature. With most pupils the difficulty is, that they do not know how to study or what to observe, and, if they are set at work upon specimens without a guide, they turn them over aimlessly for awhile, and then, discouraged with this profitless proceeding, beg to be allowed to return to the safe and familiar shelter of a text-book. When the teacher can spend his time with the class during their study hours, stimulating by questions and aiding by suggestions, all this may be changed; but how few can spare time and strength for very much of such work! The "Analysis of Animals" supplies the questions, shows the pupils what characteristics to look for, and affords convenient means of testing the amount and quality of work done. The author offers this plan as a step in advance, but as one step only, and hopes that his fellow teachers, who may use it, will freely communicate to him objections and difficulties, as well as suggestions for its improvement. How to use the "Analysis." Beginning in the usual way, the class learns somewhat thoroughly the characteristics of one branch, e. g., vertebrates, noticing the other branches briefly. Then one class, say mammals, is studied, some comparison being made with other classes of the same branch. Then two or three orders with their prominent families, and a few of their genera and species are mastered.
