EDUCATIONAL TEXTS FOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS, REALISTS AND CADETS OF THE XIX CENTURY: METHODICAL ASPECT

Until the end of the 18th century, Russia did not have original chemistry textbooks. Everybody had to use translations, including textbooks of physics, in which there was always a section on chemical phenomena. In the early 19th century domestic textbooks of chemistry appeared. At first they were few. Their undoubted advantage was that they were made by those who directly taught at school. Your attention is invited to the history of textbooks containing information on school chemistry. For the best of them, a brief description is given. Of considerable interest are the methodical views of the authors of first original textbooks. Their approach is quite appropriate in the preparation of modern educational texts on natural Sciences.
