Organizační klima fakult připravujících učitele
Záměrem předložené knihy je představit analýzu organizačního klimatu vysokoškolského prostředí, se zaměřením na pedagogické fakulty či fakulty připravující učitele. Jednotlivé kapitoly reflektují výzvy Boloňského procesu, charakterizují náplň práce akademických pracovníků a zabývají se teoretickými východisky percepce organizačního klimatu vysokých škol a fakult. Významným přínosem je seznámení s vlastním výzkumem, s tvorbou a ověřením výzkumných nástrojů. Stěžejní část je proto věnována popisu etap vývoje dotazníků percepce organizačního klimatu akademickými pracovníky, způsobům jejich ověřování a koncipování archu polostrukturovaného rozhovoru pro výzkum percepce organizačního klimatu fakult připravujících učitele jejich vedením.
Determinanty organizačního klimatu vysokých škol a fakult
Kolektivní monografie Determinanty organizačního klimatu vysokých škol a fakult vychází ze situace, kdy světové i české vysoké školství prochází reformami. Autoři monografie se zaměřují na český legislativní rámec vysokých škol, který rovněž určuje jejich ekonomické zdroje. Všímají si nového fenoménu ve vysokoškolském prostředí, a to jejich marketingové strategie. Za další z determinant vysokých škol a fakult považují jejich management, což se pojí i s otázkami jeho profesionalizace a znalostí v oblasti vedení a hodnocení pracovníků. Akademickým pracovníkům a jejich profesi je proto věnována další kapitola. Vysoké školy a fakulty však netvoří jen legislativní a ekonomické struktury, ale především studenti a doktorandi, jež jsou předmětem kapitol závěrečných.
Engaging Schools
When it comes to motivating people to learn, disadvantaged urban adolescents are usually perceived as a hard sell. Yet, in a recent MetLife survey, 89 percent of the low-income students claimed "I really want to learn" applied to them. What is it about the school environmentâ€"pedagogy, curriculum, climate, organizationâ€"that encourages or discourages engagement in school activities? How do peers, family, and community affect adolescents' attitudes towards learning? Engaging Schools reviews current research on what shapes adolescents' school engagement and motivation to learnâ€"including new findings on students' sense of belongingâ€"and looks at ways these can be used to reform urban high schools. This book discusses what changes hold the greatest promise for increasing students' motivation to learn in these schools. It looks at various approaches to reform through different methods of instruction and assessment, adjustments in school size, vocational teaching, and other key areas. Examples of innovative schools, classrooms, and out-of-school programs that have proved successful in getting high school kids excited about learning are also included.

The Hiram Key
Was Jesus a Freemason? The discovery of evidence of the most secret rites of Freemasonry in an ancient Egyptian tomb led authors Chris Knight and Bob Lomas into and extraordinary investigation of 4, 000 years of history. This astonishing bestseller raises questions that have challenged some of Western civilisation's most cherished beliefs: Were scrolls bearing the secret teachings of Jesus buried beneath Herod's Temple shortly before the destruction of Jerusalem by the Roman's? Did the Knights Templar, the forerunners of modern Freemasonry, excavate these scrolls in the twelfth century? And were these scrolls subsequently buried underneath a reconstruction of Herod's Temple, Rosslyn Chapel in Scotland - where they are now awaiting excavation? The authors' discoveries shed a new light on Masonic ceremony and overturn out understanding of history.
