| Summary: | One of a series designed to prepare high school students for horticulture service occupations, this guide has as its major objective to develop the understandings and abilities required to grow high-quality horticultural plants. It was developed by a national task force on the basis of data from state studies. Subject matter areas are (1) economic and aesthetic values of flower, fruit, and vegetable plants, (2) plant growth, (3) plant parts, (4) plant life processes, (5) plant environment control, (6) transplanting, and (7) cultural practices. Suggestions are included for introduction of the module, specific unit objectives, subject matter content, teaching-learning activities, instructional materials and references, and evaluative procedures. This module is scheduled for 40 hours of class instruction, 57 hours of laboratory and 70 hours of occupational experience. Teachers with a background in horticulture may use it to plan a unit for less able high school students who have an occupational goal in ornamental horticulture. This document is available for a limited period as part of a set (vt 000 619 - 000 631) for $7.25 from the center for vocational and technical education, the Ohio State University, 980 kinnear road, Columbus, Ohio 43212.
