Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early 19th century, the translation of nature observations into quantified records often intended to convey both epistemologically and aesthetically determined forms of experience. Diverse fields of knowledge such as literature, philosophy, and art as well as natural history, cartography, and microscopy accomplished this demand in a process of mutual exchange and gradual assimilation of ideas and practices. The book investigates the intriguing complexity of this osmotic dynamics, in which various positions on the significance of inner and outer world were continuously exchanged.

Download or read book Cartography written by Matthew H. Edney and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2019-04-12 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past four decades, the volumes published in the landmark History of Cartography series have both chronicled and encouraged scholarship about maps and mapping practices across time and space. As the current director of the project that has produced these volumes, Matthew H. Edney has a unique vantage point for understanding what “cartography” has come to mean and include. In this book Edney disavows the term cartography, rejecting the notion that maps represent an undifferentiated category of objects for study. Rather than treating maps as a single, unified group, he argues, scholars need to take a processual approach that examines specific types of maps—sea charts versus thematic maps, for example—in the context of the unique circumstances of their production, circulation, and consumption. To illuminate this bold argument, Edney chronicles precisely how the ideal of cartography that has developed in the West since 1800 has gone astray. By exposing the flaws in this ideal, his book challenges everyone who studies maps and mapping practices to reexamine their approach to the topic. The study of cartography will never be the same.

Download or read book Nature Observation Journal for Kids written by A Day to Remember Journals and published by . This book was released on 2020-05-16 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How awesome would it be for children to have some fun away from television, electronic games and tablets, and to learn to appreciate moments of calm in contact with nature? With this "draw and write journal" we invite you to spend family time in contact with nature, even if you live in a city. You do not need lots of materials, or to go to a forest to offer your child a positive experience with nature. You just need pen or pencil and a few minutes playing in the grass, hunting insects, watching the growth of plants or the routine of animals.. very simple things can provide your children with a super positive experience. The Nature Observation Journal along with an adult's guidance can: - make your child value and appreciate the land, air, sun and water, - help children learn about the life cycle, - develop a sense of responsibility, patience and reflection, - and help our emotional balance, since the human being has in essence the need for contact with nature, which is often limited by our lifestyle. We live in a world that can no longer ignore the importance of taking care of the environment, and when we learn to appreciate nature from a young age, we can develop a beautiful relationship with the world around us. With this journal you will record your child's nature observations (which could be as short as 1-2 lines) and will encourage him/her to draw what he/she saw, or represent how he/she felt while in contact with nature. Your written entries and the child drawings can be quite simple, and yet children will learn through them and further develop their fine motor skills. So, how about finding some time to go out with your kids connect with nature, and de-stress a little? Your passport for "calm activities" and wonderful memories exploring the nature is right here!

Book Synopsis Observing Children in Their Natural Worlds by : Anthony D. Pellegrini
Download or read book Observing Children in Their Natural Worlds written by Anthony D. Pellegrini and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second edition updates the methods based on new technologies, updates and increases the number of examples, and reorganizes so the theoretical material is up front. The author's decisions were guided by having used the first edition in classes at two universities. Consequently, he received feedback on the book from a variety of different perspectives--from groups of very conscientious and competent students and from colleagues around the world who have used the book. By consensus, the most popular aspect of the first edition was the organization of the book, where the student/researcher is guided through conceptualizing, designing, implementing, and writing up the research project. This basic organization is the same as in the first edition, however, within this organizational frame things have changed. The discussion of the place of direct observational methods in relation to different "qualitative" and "quantitative" research traditions has been kept, but expanded. Discussions of the use of direct observations in naturalistic settings (drawing from research methods in ethology and ethnography) and in more contrived settings (drawing from experimental psychology) are extended. Relatedly, an extended discussion has been added on theories of science guiding different research assumptions. In addition, sections of validity, reliability, and the ethics surrounding the research enterprise are also expanded. These constructs are not specific to observational methods but relevant to the general research process. In revised chapters in these areas the author provides grounding in the general concepts and then draws more specific focus to observational methods. The extended discussion of ethics is important, since issues related to who gets authorship on papers, how to complete Institutional Review Board forms, and honesty in reporting findings are all issues that face both junior and senior researchers alike. Practical issues of writing research papers are expanded in this edition, providing discussions of writing both review and empirical articles. Lastly, a new and extensive chapter on using technology in direct observational methods has been added, which reviews the available hardware and software in direct observational methods.

Book Synopsis Ethical Responses to Nature’s Call by : James Magrini
Download or read book Ethical Responses to Nature’s Call written by James Magrini and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-06-05 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arguing for a renewed view of objects and nature, Ethical Responses to Nature’s Call considers how it is possible to understand our ethical duties - in the form of ethical intuitionalism - to nature and the planet by listening to and releasing ourselves over to the call or address of nature. Blending several strands of philosophical thought, such as Graham Harman’s Object-Oriented Ontology, W. D. Ross’s prima fathics, Alphonso Lingis’s phenomenological ethics traceable to The Imperative, and Michael Bonnett’s ecophilosophy, this book offers a unique rejoinder to the problems and issues that continue to haunt humans’ relationship to nature. The origins of such problems and issues largely remain obscured from view due to the oppressive influence of the "Cultural Framework" which gives form and structure to the ways we understand, discourse on, and comport ourselves in relation to the natural world. Through understanding this "Cultural Framework" we also come to know the responses we continue to offer in answer to nature’s call and address, and are then in a position to analyze and assess those responses in terms of their potential ethical weight. Such a phenomenon is made possible through the descriptive-and-interpretive method of eco-phenomenology. This renewed vision of the human-and-nature provides direction for our interaction with and behavior toward nature in such a way that the ethical insight offers a diagnosis and provides a potentially compelling prescriptive for environmental ills.
Book Synopsis Exploration and Meaning Making in the Learning of Science by : Bernard Zubrowski
Download or read book Exploration and Meaning Making in the Learning of Science written by Bernard Zubrowski and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-08-14 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mountaineers, Rock Climbers, and Science Educators Around the 1920s, rock climbing separated from mountaineering to become a separate sport. At that time European climbers developed new equipment and techniques, enabling them to ascend mountain faces and to climb rocks, which were considered unassailable up to that time. American climbers went further by expanding and improving on the equipment. They even developed a system of quantification where points were given for the degree of difficulty of an ascent. This system focused primarily on the pitch of the mountain, and it even calculated up to de- mals to give a high degree of quantification. Rock climbing became a technical system. Csikszentmihaly (1976) observed that the sole interest of rock climbers at that time was to climb the rock. Rock climbers were known to reach the top and not even glance around at the scenery. The focus was on reaching the top of the rock. In contrast, mountaineers saw the whole mountain as a single “unit of perc- tion. ” “The ascent (to them) is a gestalt including the aesthetic, historical, personal and physical sensations” (Csikszentmihaly, 1976, p. 486). This is an example of two contrasting approaches to the same kind of landscape and of two different groups of people. Interestingly, in the US, Europe, and Japan a large segment of the early rock climbers were young mathematicians and theoretical physicists, while the mountaineers were a more varied lot.
