Teaching Elementary Animal Husbandry

Ohio State University

Abstract

There are two fundamentals involved in the administration of any University course, namely what to teach and secondly, how to teach what you have to teach. What to teach resolves itself into course objectives. In this connection it seems reasonable to believe that the administrators of the elementary Animal Husbandry course at the various agricultural colleges over the country have similar objectives in mind. At this point it is my intention to state these objectives as we interpret them at Ohio State University. They are as follows:

First—to give the student a look into the field of Animal Husbandry and impress upon his mind something of the importance of this great industry in its service to mankind.

Second—to give the student some idea of the organization of animal production as it applies to beef cattle, dairy cattle, swine, sheep and horses. As an example of this objective phase, the organization of the beef cattle industry may be referred to.
