Introduction Ill
Introduction
Agriculture is important to all of us. It affects us directlybecause it provides our food, clothing, and shelter. Indi-rectly, it is a major contributor to the economy of ourNation and to international trade.
This Resource Guide to Educational Materials About Agri-culture can help teachers bring more about agricultureinto their classrooms. It provides a listing of materialsrelating to agriculture available from private and publicsources.
This is the third revision of the original guide, which wasproduced in 1983 at the request of and with the assis-tance of farm organizations, commodity groups, farmwomen's organizations, State departments of agricul-ture, and educators.
More than 300 organizations and publishers were askedwhat materials they were producing that would helpregular classroom teachers, grades K-12, incorporatemore information about agriculture into their teaching.These materials are described in this Guide.
The listings are divided into four sections:
PRINTED MATERIALSbooks, pamphlets, activity andcoloring books, and packets or kits of printed materials.
AUDIOVISUALS AND KITSfilms, filmstrips, slide sets,videotapes, and transparencies, some with accompany-ing print materials.
RESOURCE GUIDES OR CATALOGUESother resourceguides or catalogues, which include materials about agri-culture that are of interest to teachers.
MISCELLANEOUSposters, wall charts, and computersoftware.
The items presented in this Guide are listed by title, pub-lisher/producer, grade level, format (booklet or film, forexample); they include a description of the content, andprice and ordering information for almost all entries. Ex-cept for some editing to conserve space, for consisten-cy, or for clarity, the information is as provided by theproducer or publisher in terms of content and complete-ness.
To help teachers find what they are looking for, thematerials are indexed several ways:
1. Title index (page 69)2. Agriculture and History (page 73)3. The Geography of Agriculture (page 74)4. Agricultural Science and Technology (page 75)5. Agricultural Economics and Society (page 76)6. Agriculture and the World (page 77)7. Careers (page 78)8. Agriculture and Public Policy (page 79)9. Activity and Coloring Books (page 80)
10. Materials With Guides for Teachers, lists materialsthat are school directed (page 80)
11. State-related Materials, lists materials pertaining toparticular States or produced by a State organiza-tion (page 8Z).
Materials included in this Guide are those that are pri-marily about agriculture and related issues. Materialslargely concerned with nutrition, food preparation (reci-pes), promotional information, or buying advice on foodand fiber are not included because many other resourceguides already list such materials.
Beyond determining that the materials fit this subjectmatter criteria, no attempt was made to evaluate them.Inclusion in the Guide does not mean endorsement byUSDA. The purpose in creating the Guide is to assembleinformation on a wide selection of rmiterials so thatteachers can decide for themselves what will be usefulin their classrooms.
