Summary of field internship in university botany

3 summaries of university botany field internships

Introduction: Internship summary is a type of applied writing, which is a rational reflection on the work that has been done. Summary and plan are complementary to each other and should be based on the internship plan. The internship plan is always based on the summary experience of the internship. I have carefully compiled the following essays for you regarding internships in botany majors. I hope they can help you!

Summary of University Botany Field Internship 1

The five-day botany field internship came to an end after the specimens were pressed on the afternoon of the 26th. This field internship not only broadened our horizons, but also gave us a deeper understanding of plants.

Through this field internship, I developed a strong interest in plant research and further improved my professional knowledge. Although our trip was greatly affected by the bad weather this time, under the leadership of the teacher, we wore raincoats and braved the rain, walking through the plants without stopping at all.

This field internship was very fruitful. I learned how to identify the type of plant through its external characteristics, such as first observing whether it is a monocotyledonous plant or a dicotyledonous plant, and whether the leaves are opposite or opposite. Alternate, look at the type of fruit... When collecting specimens, different types of plants have different requirements. For grasses, roots, stems, and leaves must be complete, while for woody plants, flowers, fruits, and leaves must be complete. Growth allows us to identify the growth type of its leaves, and when collecting specimens, we should not only choose those relatively tender plants, because if the plants are too tender, it will not be easy to press the specimens when pressing them, and they will easily deform, and the plants will be too tender. Tender, its characteristics are not obvious enough. Therefore, when selecting plant specimens, we must select parts with obvious characteristics. This will not only facilitate us to identify the specimens, but also will not be easily deformed during the pressing process and can be easily pressed into specimens. Those fruits can be otherwise Let it dry, do not put it in the specimen folder, and put it back in its original place when making specimens.

Among all plants, in terms of pressing specimens, ferns are relatively easy to succeed, while woody plants are relatively difficult because their leaves fall off easily and become moldy... Summary of University Botany Field Internship 2

Medicinal botany is an important professional basic course in Chinese Materia Medica, Chinese Medicine Resources and Development, Pharmacy and other majors. ① The teaching of this course includes theoretical teaching, experimental teaching, There are three parts to field practice. Field practice is often arranged after the first two links are completed. Since the establishment of the Chinese Pharmacy major in the 1970s, our school has started field practice for this course and has developed a relatively mature implementation model. Its specific implementation mainly includes the following links.

1. Selection of field practice base

The choice of field practice base is an important prerequisite for the success of field practice. A suitable practice base can ensure and improve the quality of field practice, so the choice of the base The selection is particularly critical, and multiple factors can be considered comprehensively, including convenient transportation facilities, less impact from human interference, sufficient basic information, beautiful natural environment, large reserves of medicinal plant resources and rich varieties, ② convenient and flexible arrangement of internship routes, and large-scale Hosting capacity location. Our school has conducted field internships on medicinal plants in Shennongjia, Hubei, Jiugong Mountain in Xianning, Wuhan Botanical Garden, Lushan in Jiangxi and other places. Based on the above principles, our school finally used Lushan as the internship base.

Lushan Mountain, located in Jiujiang City, Jiangxi Province, borders the Yangtze River to the north and Poyang Lake to the south. It is extremely rich in medicinal plant resources. There are 1,859 species of wild and cultivated medicinal plants in 242 families, 803 genera, among which There are 1,027 species of wild vascular plants in 171 families, 756 genera, including 64 species of ferns in 38 genera and 27 families, 11 species of gymnosperms in 7 families, 8 genera, and 952 species of angiosperms in 137 families, 710 genera. ③Common medicinal plants include Lycopodium cyphylla, Selaginella selaginella, Echinacea, Guanzhong, Lushan Shiwei, Polygonum multiflorum, Motherwort, Houttuynia cordata, Haijinsha, Senecio, Golden Buckwheat, Gangbangui, Haiershen, Coptis chinensis, Daxue Vine, arrowleaf epimedium, Chinese Schisandra chinensis, pheasant pepper, lepidium, weeping potgrass, liquidambar, eucommia, agrimony, kudzu, salt bark, purpurea, road yellow, prunella vulgaris, mint, Trichosanthes, goat's milk, platycodon, cinnabar root, wild chrysanthemum, Liujinu, pale bamboo leaves, aroid star, lily, Polygonatum polygonatum, Polygonatum odoratum, pink-backed dioscorea, etc. Medicinal parts include all types of traditional Chinese medicine, including roots and rhizomes, stems, bark, leaves, flowers, fruits and seeds, whole plants, resins, etc. Medicinal plant species cover almost all families involved in medicinal botany textbooks. Lushan’s unique resource advantages provide an important guarantee for the smooth and high-quality completion of field internships.

2 Preliminary preparations for field internship

2.1 Material preparation

Organize and prepare the items needed during the internship in advance, mainly including teaching items, including "Chinese Higher Plants" "Illustrated Book", "Lushan Flora", "Medicinal Botany" and other reference books; pruning shears, hoes, collection bags, specimen paper, specimen folders, absorbent paper, number plates, GPS, and cameras required in the specimen collection and production process etc.; necessary commonly used medicines and commonly used emergency medical equipment; personal items and necessary documents, etc.

　2.2 Ideological preparation

Before the internship, organize students from relevant majors to hold a field internship mobilization meeting to let students clarify the purpose, significance and importance of the field internship and correct their internship attitude; inform the basic arrangements and arrangements during the internship Necessary related preparations; emphasize organizational discipline, obey discipline and follow arrangements during the internship, and show a good contemporary college student style; at the same time, focus on strengthening safety education, including life safety and property safety, to improve students' safety awareness.

2.3 Personnel preparation

According to the internship situation and relevant teaching arrangements, coordinate teachers, doctors, class teachers and other personnel. Students are divided into internship groups based on their major, gender, number of leading teachers, and other comprehensive conditions.

　2.4 Transportation arrangements

Since the field internship team is relatively large (our school has about 300 people participating in internships every year), the journey is relatively long, and there are many items to carry, so it is best to stop halfway Instead of changing trains, take the one-stop method directly from school to base. Generally, it is better to choose a car as a means of transportation to facilitate flexible arrangements. Therefore, before field practice, it is necessary to arrange transportation in advance, make bus arrangements, and divide the bus groups.

3 Teaching implementation of field practice

3.1 Field practice teaching content

Based on the theoretical teaching content of medicinal botany and combined with the resource characteristics of the central region, we choose traditional The main purpose is to identify and collect bulk medicinal plants. The teaching process mainly focuses on mastering the basic skills of plant identification, requiring students to master the identification characteristics of more than 200 common medicinal plants. On the basis of previous theoretical learning, students will further strengthen their understanding of Polygonaceae, Ranunculaceae, and Magnoliaceae based on real objects. , Brassicaceae, Rosaceae, Fabaceae, Araliaceae, Apiaceae, Lamiaceae, Cucurbitaceae, Platycodonaceae, Asteraceae, Araceae, Liliaceae and other key family characteristics. At the same time, attention is paid to the cultivation of students' observation skills (observation of plant characteristics, habitats, etc.), collection and production of wax leaf specimens of seed plants, and investigation of field plant resources.

3.2 Field Teaching Methods

The identification of plants is mainly based on "eye sight" (observing the morphological characteristics of various organs of the plant) and "sniffing" (smelling the special smell emitted by the plant) , "mouth tasting" (tasting the taste of the plant), and "hand rubbing" (touching and feeling its texture, thickness, hairiness, etc.), and at the same time distinguishing and comparing families or plants that have similar characteristics in some aspects and are easily confused. The characteristics that are the same in some aspects are classified and summarized, and some formulas, sayings, legends, and stories are combined to stimulate students' interest so that students can quickly and accurately grasp the identification characteristics of common plants.

　3.3 Field Practice Assessment

After the field practice teaching session, in order to check the students’ learning effect, different forms of assessment will be adopted. Our school’s field practice assessment is mainly an on-site examination. That is, about 30 common medicinal plants are randomly selected and students are required to write the species name and family name within the specified time, and be able to independently complete the production of wax leaf specimens. At the same time, based on the students' learning attitude, organizational discipline, team spirit, and practical ability during the internship The comprehensive performance score will be given, and finally the comprehensive score of the field internship will be obtained according to a certain proportion.

4 Summary and Discussion

Over the years, through continuous attempts, summarization and changes, we have established a relatively mature teaching model for medicinal botany field practice. Through this This model of practical teaching can enable students to master the basic knowledge and skills of medicinal plant morphological structure and taxonomy, identify and identify commonly used medicinal plants, and become familiar with their medicinal parts and effects; master the collection and production of medicinal plant specimens and preservation methods; be familiar with the wild distribution patterns of different types of medicinal plants, etc. At the same time, it stimulates students' interest in professional learning and promotes their hard-working spirit and teamwork awareness.

However, in recent years, with the continuous changes in social development, some new problems have also been reflected in the implementation of teaching in our field internships. The main manifestations are: (1) The shortage of teachers has led to an excessive number of students in the internship group. (2) The collection of specimens causes increased damage to resources; (3) The field internship time arranged in the teaching plan is relatively concentrated and fixed, which often does not coincide well with the flowering and fruiting periods of most medicinal plants; (4) The field internship time is comprehensive 10% of the grades are included in the total score of this course. Due to the low proportion, some students do not pay enough attention to the internship; (5) Post-90s students have strong self-awareness, poor psychological endurance, and lack of hard-working spirit, etc. ④The emergence of these problems affects the teaching effect of field practice to a certain extent. How to ensure the effect of field practice of medicinal botany through reform requires continuous exploration and innovation. Summary of University Botany Field Internship 3

Fanjing Mountain, Jiangkou County, Tongren City, Yuntai Mountain, Shibing County, Kaili City

IV. Introduction to the internship location:

1. Jiangkou County

Fanjing Mountain Chapter - Buddhist Culture

Fanjing Mountain, the main peak of the Wuling Mountains, is located at the junction of Jiangkou, Yinjiang and Songtao counties. The Golden Summit is 2493 meters above sea level. With its majestic and majestic mountains, it has been a holy place of Buddhist worship since the Ming Dynasty. The inscription "Preface to the Reconstruction of the Golden Summit of Fanjing Mountain" established in the 46th year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1618) calls it "the ancestor of all the famous mountains in the world". During the more than 300 years from the Ming Dynasty to the Republic of China, "believing men and good women came and went, just like a city." It can be seen that the incense is at its peak. There are provincial key cultural relics protection units on the mountain such as Chengen Temple built in the Ming Dynasty, Golden Summit Cliff, Imperial Monument, Qing Daoguang Forest Forest Monument, and Red Hao Army Triangle Village Base Area Site. The scenery in the mountainous area is majestic and majestic, with countless steep peaks and rocks, exotic flowers and plants, sea of ??clouds, sunrises, flowing water and waterfalls, and the phantom of Buddha's light for people to watch. The mountainous area also preserves more than 400,000 acres of virgin forest, in which many rare animals and plants that are on the verge of extinction at home and abroad grow. It has extremely high ornamental and scientific research value, and is hailed by scientific workers as an important "natural gene bank."

During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, Guizhou Governor Guo Zizhang pacified Yang Yinglong's rebellion in Bozhou (today's Zunyi area). Mount Fanjing suffered an unprecedented disaster, and all the temples in the mountainous area were destroyed. Empress Dowager Li, the mother of Wanli Emperor Zhu Jun, was a strong believer in Buddhism. After her donation and initiative for reconstruction, uncle Li Ying and eminent monk Miao Yuan presided over the reconstruction of Chengen Temple, Nine Emperors Cave, Nine Emperors Hall, Yuantong Hall, Sakyamuni Hall and the overpass on the Golden Summit, as well as the Chengen Temple at the foot of the mountain. Entang (Bamei Temple), and in the forty-sixth year of Wanli (1618), a monument was erected at the top of Lao Jin to keep his ambition alive. After the reconstruction, the number of pilgrims increased year by year, and Fanjing Mountain entered its heyday. According to the existing inscriptions in the mountain area, the cliffs record that pilgrims came not only from Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, and Hunan, but even from Jiangxi, Anhui, Jiangsu and Zhejiang. The tea palace inscription It is recorded that "men and women who have been offering incense for hundreds of years have come and gone, just like the city". This grand scene has lasted for more than 200 years.

In the fifth year of Xianfeng in the Qing Dynasty (1855), an uprising of the Red Army led by Xu Tingjie and Mei Jiding broke out in Tongren Prefecture. The rebel army used Fanjing Mountain as its base and persisted in the struggle for 11 years. During this period, the temples on the mountain were destroyed one after another, the monks dispersed, and the pilgrims stayed away. Once again, Fanjing Mountain was "deserted and desolate." In the ninth year of Tongzhi (1870), monk Longcan of Dongshan Temple in Tongren went up to the mountain to preside over the restoration work. After he raised funds from all directions and "cut thorns and cut silkworms," ??within 5 years, Baoen Temple, Huixiangping and other temples were built. In the first year of Guangxu (1875), some soldiers of the Qing army who participated in the failed Ge Laohui uprising were led by Liu Man, the king of the black land, into Fanjing Mountain and took advantage of the danger to deal with the Qing army. In the same year, Cen Yuying, the governor of Guizhou, was ordered to conquer the country, and it was restored the following year. Monk Longcan continued to work hard and vigorously restored the damaged temples on the mountain, and also built three roads toward the mountain in Jiangkou. In the early years of the Republic of China, pilgrims continued as before. In the last years of the Republic of China, bandits were rampant and most of the pilgrims were robbed. The pilgrimage activities suddenly dropped sharply.

After liberation, the activities of worshiping the mountain ceased. The temples on the mountain were unable to withstand wind erosion and rain beetles and collapsed one after another. Most of the temples at the foot of the mountain were built into schools, canteens, warehouses or were demolished and burned. To this day, only one Chaoyang Temple remains in the county.

However, Mount Fanjing has won people's favor with its huge scientific value and magnificent tourism resources. It has been continuously investigated since the 1950s. In July 1978, after the province approved the establishment of a nature reserve, under the auspices of the Reserve Management Office, scientific inspections became more frequent and systematic. In order to meet the needs of scientific inspections and tourism, with the support of provincial and local allocations, 553,000 yuan was invested in renovations. The access road up the mountain was built, focusing on the expansion of 5 kilometers from Yu'ao to Jinding. In 1984, the entire access road was rebuilt. In the steep and narrow dangerous places, stone steps were carved or concrete steps were cast, with a maximum level of 8250, which is called "Wanshan Road". "Step on the ladder". Iron chains or steel or reinforced concrete guardrails were precipitously installed, 9 mountain bridges and culverts were built, 38 rest stations and 2 accommodation stations were built. In 1985, the Provincial Cultural Relics Department allocated funds to build the golden-domed Sakyamuni Hall, Maitreya Hall and Tianxian Bridge. Now, more than 10,000 people come to the mountain for scientific research and tourism every year, and the number is increasing year by year.

In order to promote the development of Buddhist culture and tourism and bring economic development to the backward Jiangkou County, the county government has also taken relevant measures to attract investment with the sign of Buddhist culture. According to Guizhou Daily on January 8, 2007: Yang Biao, the head of Jiangkou County People's Government, and Zeng Yibing, chairman of Guizhou Fanjingshan Buddhist Culture Development Co., Ltd., formally signed the "Fanjingshan Buddhist Cultural Garden Construction Project Agreement." This marks the official implementation of the Fanjingshan Buddhist Cultural Garden construction project. Hainan Sanya Jinyu Guanyin Culture and Art Co., Ltd. and Jiangkou County People's Government signed an investment of 280 million yuan to build Jiangkou Fanjingshan Buddhist Cultural Garden project at the Guiyang Investment and Trade Fair of Huangguoshu Waterfall Festival in Guizhou, China on September 16, 2006. , Mr. Zeng Yibing, the company’s chairman, came to Jiangkou County for an on-site inspection again the next month. The Buddhist culture and natural landscape of Mount Fanjing, as well as the national culture and humanistic landscape, deeply attracted them. In addition, the intersection of airplanes, railways, and highways At Mount Fanjing, he immediately decided to invest 5 million yuan to register and establish "Guizhou Fanjingshan Buddhist Culture Development Co., Ltd." and expanded the investment scale to 460 million yuan. The construction content was to restore the Fanjingshan Grand Buddha Temple (including the world's largest gold and jade statue). Maitreya Buddha Statue: Nearly 110 kilograms of gold, 140 carats of diamonds and thousands of pearls were used to cast the world's largest Maitreya Golden Buddha in Fanjing Mountain), Fahua Temple, and build the Fanjing Mountain Tourist Reception and Service Center. , Buddhist Cultural Plaza, etc. It can be seen that the development of Fanjing Mountain in Jiangkou is being further developed with the development of tourism. However, what worries the author is that when the Buddhist status of Fanjing Mountain is being further verified and has not yet been clearly recognized, overly prosperous business will Will the breath blending into the Buddhist fragrance and flame of Fanjing Mountain tarnish this simple, natural and mysterious holy place? Undoubtedly, through a good commercial development, the incense of our country's Buddhist culture can be burned and more religious people can find their pure spiritual land. I can only silently pray for the land that raised me.

2. Overview of Shibing County

(1) Geographical location

Shibing County is located in the eastern part of Guizhou Province, northwest of Qiandongnan Prefecture, and is the eastern line of Guizhou The tourism center is adjacent to Zhenyuan to the east, Tongren Shiqian County to the north, Taijiang County to the south and up to Guangxi, Jianhe County to the southeast, Yuqing County in Zunyi Prefecture to the west, and 220 kilometers from Huaihua City on the lake, and is 220 kilometers away from the provincial capital. 230 kilometers from Guiyang City.

It has formed national-level scenic spots such as Yuntai Mountain, Shanmu River, and Shangxia Wuyang River. It is rich in tourism resources.

5. Internship content

1. Notes

On May 20, we held a mobilization meeting for field internship. The internship locations were Fanjing Mountain in Jiangkou and Yuntai Mountain in Shibing. At the conference, the teacher explained to us the importance and necessity of the internship, the purpose and significance of the internship, and put forward specific requirements and time arrangements for us. The teacher tells everyone the precautions for field practice.

2. Specific itinerary

(1) May 21st is the day when the plant field internship starts. It departs at 7:30 in the morning and arrives at the destination around 7:30 in the evening—— Heiwanhe Ecological Park Restaurant in Jiangkou County. There was no itinerary planned on the first day, so everyone took a rest and made full preparations for tomorrow.

(2) May 22 is the first day of our internship, and the internship area is at the foot of Fanjing Mountain. We set off on time at 9 o'clock and listened to the teacher's explanation while climbing the mountain and collecting specimens. Suddenly it started to rain lightly, but with the encouragement of the teacher, we held up our umbrellas and continued. Everyone collected a lot of unique plants and returned to the hotel at 3 pm. We started pressing the specimens at 7 o'clock after dinner and basically finished it at 9 o'clock.

Although it was a tiring day, we finally completed the first day's task with everyone's mutual encouragement.

(3) On May 23, we climbed Mount Fanjing. I had breakfast in the morning, prepared dry food, and set off at 7:30 to buy tickets at the east gate of Fanjing Mountain. Everyone went in and took a sightseeing bus for a while. When we arrived at the sightseeing station, we walked to face the nine thousand steps. Because picking plants is not allowed in the scenic area, the teacher walked along and taught us about the surrounding plants. On the same day, we also visited the Red Cloud Golden Summit, Mushroom Rock and other scenic spots in the Fanjing Mountain Scenic Area. The scenery was beautiful. In the end, we dragged our extremely tired bodies, started from diligence and frugality, and gave up taking the cable car down the mountain. Who knew that going down the mountain was more difficult than going up, but we still united and helped each other, and finally arrived at the sightseeing bus stop when the last batch of sightseeing buses returned. . After coming back, I turned over the specimens, had dinner, and went back to the room to rest.
