Lucas, Harold B. Shinn, and Mabel E. Smallwood is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This manual is designed for secondary school students, aiming to facilitate the study of zoology through practical exercises and ecological concepts rather than exhaustive studies of individual organisms. It provides a framework for understanding various animal forms, their behaviors, and their ecological relationships, stressing the importance of encouraging curious exploration of local wildlife. The opening of the manual sets the stage by discussing the rationale behind its creation and the teaching philosophy of the time. It emphasizes the need for a more engaging and student-centered approach to zoology, moving away from traditional, college-oriented curricula. The authors highlight the significance of a broad introduction to animal life through accessible exercises that involve observation and interaction with common species found in the local environment. By promoting fieldwork and the use of reference materials, the guide seeks to enhance students' understanding of animal anatomy, behavior, and ecology, ensuring that learning is relevant and practical.
