Strategies and Considerations for Educating the Academically Gifted
Within the discipline of special education is academically gifted education, and this distinct area is not typically required as a topic of focus in traditional teacher preparation programs for regular education teachers. Therefore, it is essential that current research is conducted and published that provides educators, both general and special, with resources that can assist them in providing gifted students with learning experiences tailored to their individual needs. Strategies and Considerations for Educating the Academically Gifted provides a complete overview of issues relevant to gifted education and contributes to the existing knowledge in the field with the most up-to-date information to effect positive change and growth. Covering key topics such as creativity, curriculum models, and assessment, this reference work is ideal for administrators, policymakers, researchers, academicians, scholars, practitioners, instructors, and students.
Supporting Self-Regulated Learning and Student Success in Online Courses
Students who self-regulate are more likely to improve their academic performance, find value in their learning process, and continue to be effective lifelong learners. However, online students often struggle to self-regulate, which may contribute to lower academic performance. Likewise, less experienced online teachers who are in the process of implementing—or have implemented—a shift from in-person to distance learning may struggle to enable their students to employ effective self-regulation techniques. Supporting Self-Regulated Learning and Student Success in Online Courses examines current theoretical frameworks, research projects, and empirical studies related to the design, implementation, and evaluation of self-regulated learning models and interventions in online courses and discusses their implications. Covering key topics such as online course design, student retention, and learning support, this reference work is ideal for administrators, policymakers, researchers, academicians, practitioners, scholars, instructors, and students.

Women, Business and the Law 2018
How can governments ensure that women have the same employment and entrepreneurship opportunities as men? One important step is to level the legal playing field so that the rules for operating in the worlds of work and business apply equally regardless of gender.

It tracks progress that has been made over the past two years while identifying opportunities for reform to ensure economic empowerment for all. The report updates all indicators as of June 1, 2017 and explores new areas of research, including financial inclusion.
Judicial Interpretation of Refugee Status
"It is beyond doubt that the most crucial and complicated aspect of asylum that a future coordinated EU policy, and especially domestic judicial practice, will face is that of the substantive law of refugee status, determining the refugee inclusion clauses and the individual eligibility for refugee status. This work focuses on this specific question, attempting to put forward the - rather neglected - importance of the role that a legally principled interpretation of refugee status by domestic fora may play in the development of refugee protection regionally and internationally." -- from the Preface, p. 7.
A Home for Hannah
A romance of rekindled love from the author of the Wells Landing novels, who “writes her Amish stories with the respect they are due” (RT Book Reviews). In Pontotoc, Mississippi, the Amish way means a chance to rebuild, renew, and reawaken a love from long ago . . . Fifteen years. That’s how long it’s been since Hannah McLean set foot in the Amish community where she was raised. Through it all her heart has never forgotten Pontotoc—or Aaron Zook, her first love. Now widowed, and left with little more than her hurting teenager and her prayers, she returns home, even knowing she and her son may be turned away. When Aaron learns Hannah has returned, he nearly falls to his knees. He’...
Writing and the Articulation of Postqualitative Research
Writing and the Articulation of Postqualitative Research is a collection of experimental essays on the implications of articulating or performing qualitative research from postqualitative philosophies. Although writing has been an integral part of qualitative research, for better or worse, throughout the history of the field, the recent emergence of postqualitative inquiry necessitates a reconsideration of writing. This collection of international authors explores the process and practice of writing in qualitative research from an onto-epistemological perspective, engaging with temporal, spatial, relational, social-cultural, and affective concepts and dilemmas such as philosophical alignment...
