會員們:
‘現代樹藝學’ 已經通過了第四課。 正如之前所說,這個課程不是為了考牌,而是為了實用,裡面的知識与執業樹藝師的日常工作息息相關,完全不是一些風馬牛不相關的無聊學渣,這點相信所有出席的人都會同意。
‘現代樹藝學’ 不是只講CODIT,而是把樹藝執業所需的全盤知識,從樹木生物生理學、真菌病理學、泥土科學、風力結構學等等,一點一滴的用簡單語言解釋出來。 這個課程与只懂四條答案挑一條的訓練完全不同,是為了進行樹藝研究和深入探討技術議題來設。
國際上對樹木生長的研究,往往是採取以下態度:
1. I have a problem.
2. I form a hypothesis.
3. I test the hypothesis with an experiment.
4. I collect data & analyse them.
5. I discuss the results.
6. I form a defensible conclusion.
這個無論對根腐病研究,或是樹体風力結構學研究,國際上都是採用同樣態度,而不是給您四條答案去挑一條。 真正的樹藝執業者不能只靠考選擇題來速成,因為專業樹藝報告或研究並非由選擇題來構成。
第四課的 ‘現代樹藝學’ , 會講述 枝幹連結構造、樹木創傷反應、標靶修剪方法、修剪後的生理反應、各類樹體結構的正反修剪 等等,深入探討樹木的生物生理學。 樹藝師就是 ‘樹木醫生’ ,假如醫生不懂人體科學,又能憑什麼去診病治症? 有沒有醫生的‘牌照’ 光由選擇題考出來? 不是急救員的證照也要考上 ‘人工呼吸’和 ‘傷口包札’ 了吧。
有如第四課一樣,講者將會帶同多份相關研究報告,供堂上人員參閱討論。 樹藝學並非一本 ‘天書’ 說了算,能考選擇題也不等如懂得做研究和寫報告。
在每次講座完結之前,版面都會播出下一課的時間地點,方便有心的會員不用等候會訊通知,可以直接電郵留座。

Dear Station Members,
CAA is proud to present our 42nd session of Arboricultural Education to benefit our members. This time is on the textbook teaching of Dr. Alex Shigo on ‘Modern Arboriculture – Touch Trees’ Session 5. This will be run in a series of 12 – 15 sessions, depending on how quickly the Speaker can prepare his notes.
“Modern Arboriculture’ Session 5 will be on branch structure & attachment, physiological reaction to wounding, target pruning, utilities considerations, etc. ‘Modern Arboriculture’ is not all about CODIT. In fact, CODIT would occupy less than 5 % of the total contents. The rest would be on everything from Wood Anatomy to Tree Biochemistry.
It is recommended that the attendees will bring along their own copy of " Modern Arboriculture - Touch Tree" as their textbook to the lecture. This book can be obtained at ISA & other online sources.

In Session 42, the details are as follows:
