Meet Kat Evans: Feminist. Overthinker. Hot mess. A hilarious antidote to our Insta-perfect world, for girls who want to do it right but always feel they're getting it wrong ... 16-year-old Kat has suffered through mortifying incidents, muddling moments and Instagram hell - but her extreme teenage confusion isn't over yet. It's a new term, and Kat is determined to spread the word about DOING GOOD FEMINISM to all her fellow students. But her new Feminist Society does not exactly go to plan (why is everyone more confused than she is?!) and she's left feeling more of a failure than ever. And with best friends Millie and Sam both going through difficult times, Kat wants to be there for them. But ...
This book presents a methodology for introducing an interactive system in classrooms that makes it possible to save considerably in production costs. It also examines the use of feedback as an intervention for the improvement of both teacher proficiency and student achievement. Research has shown that a scientific breakthrough has been achieved in biological knowledge that can raise society to a new level of development. What this means to science educators is presented. Other chapters analyse the shortcomings of lecture in teaching physics and explores the benefits of using wireless pen-based computing knowledge and the interdependence of science and reading. This book explains the effect of pre-school teachers reading to children on language development. The importance of free symbolic play is also explained. Furthermore, dyslexia is a multifaceted impairment. The book emphasises the importance of noting the differences in the definition of dyslexia when evaluating research. A review of the problems associated with construct and criterion-related validities of developmental dyslexia and issues associated with measurement are explored as well.
Theatre in London has celebrated a rich and influential history, and in 1976 the first volume of J. P. Wearing’s reference series provided researchers with an indispensable resource of these productions. In the decades since the original calendars were produced, several research aids have become available, notably various reference works and the digitization of important newspapers and relevant periodicals. Spanning 1890 through the 1950s, all seven volumes of The London Stage series have been revised, corrected, and expanded. In addition, approximately 20 percent of the material—in particular, information about adaptations and translations, plot sources, and comment information—is new...
This book examines the importance of mentoring relationships. Mentoring is important to individual career development. Thus, the potential benefits of mentoring on a professional scale are addressed, regardless of career stage. Findings from a constructivist grounded theory study, that examined rural nurses' experiences of mentoring, is presented in this book. Multicultural models of mentoring relationships are also examined, which are necessary given the changing demographics of our society. Recommendations for developing positive multicultural mentoring relationships and future directions in research and training are looked at as well. Furthermore, mid-career is the most appropriate period for taking on mentoring responsibilities. Thus, a conceptual analysis of the relationships between the mentor's career stage and the mentoring process are analysed. This book also describes the attitudes, characteristics, and practices of effective mentoring of student teachers on students as well as the effect peer-mentoring has on disabled persons. Future directions of peer-mentoring and disability are addressed as well.
