Current Debates in Education
Our lives and societies are being transformed at an incredible rate; technology and the rapid pace at which information is being generated is impacting the way that we work, relax, and overall choose to lead our lives. The rise of 3-D printing, the bitcoin, and the autonomous vehicle are painting an exciting picture for our futures. Yet, this is a picture that fewer and fewer will be able to view. Societal gaps, driven in large part by fundamental changes in education systems, technologies, and methodologies are advantaging a relative few while leaving many more lacking. This volume – a compilation of papers presented at the 2017 Current Debates in Social Sciences – brings to light issues of challenge identification and solution exploration at this 6th international meeting. Main themes addressed in this text include: Psychological Guidance and Counseling, Special Education, Teacher Preparation, Teaching Methods and Approaches, and Voices on education and social issues.
Tumor Microenvironment
Revealing essential roles of the tumor microenvironment in cancer progression, this volume focuses on non-hematopoietic cells within the tumor microenvironment.Further, it teaches readers about the roles of distinct constituents of the tumor microenvironment and how they affect cancer development. Topics include fibroblasts, adipocytes, mesenchymal stem cells, stellate cells, and more. Taken alongside its companion volumes, Tumor Microenvironment: Non-Hematopoietic Cells updates us on what we know about the different aspects of the tumor microenvironment as well as future directions. Useful for introducing the newer generation of researchers to the history of how scientists focused in the tumor microenvironment and how this knowledge is currently applied for cancer treatments, it will be essential reading for advanced cell biology and cancer biology students as well as researchers seeking an update on research in the tumor microenvironment. All of the chapter authors are renowned international experts in the cancer biology field in specific subfields that will be the focus of their chapters.
Learning Strategies and Learning Styles
A style is any pattern we see in a person's way of accomplishing a particular type of task. The "task" of interest in the present context is education-learning and remembering in school and transferring what is learned to the world outside of school. Teachers are expressing some sort of awareness of style when they observe a particular action taken by a particular student and then say something like: "This doesn't surprise me! That's just the way he is. " Observation of a single action cannot reveal a style. One's impres sion of a person's style is abstracted from multiple experiences of the person under similar circumstances. In education, if we understand the styles of individual students,...

Sixth edition of the hugely successful, internationally recognised textbook on global public health and epidemiology, with 3 volumes comprehensively covering the scope, methods, and practice of the discipline
Class Management
Successful teachers operate in many different ways, but they have one thing in common - an ability to manage their classrooms effectively. Without this basic skill, the most inspiring and knowledgeable teacher is in danger of failing. In Class Management Ted Wragg aims to help teachers to clarify their own aims and to find the strategies which will work for them. Topics covered include first encounters, the establishment of rules and relationships, management of time and space and specific discipline problems.
The Aging Spine
The "Bone and Joint Decade" draws our attention with increased intensity to the problem of the changes related to aging of our musculoskeletal system and the associated socioeconomic implications. In view of the increasing age of the worldwide population the impact seems to be tremendous. The editors of The Aging Spine pick up this interesting topic and engage opinion leaders to contribute their knowledge in this supplement. The various contributions cover most of the important problems, which are included in the vast specter of aging spine: osteoporosis, spinal stenosis, and tumors of the spine. The aging spine will be an everpresent issue in the life of a physician taking care of the different pathologies of the spine. This text will help to better understand the nature of the different changes in the spine of the elderly. It contributes to enabling us to diagnose and to treat this complex problem in an appropriate way.
In Search of Understanding
The activities that transpire within the classroom either help or hinder students' learning. Any meaningful discussion of educational renewal, therefore, must focus explicitly and directly on the classroom, and on the teaching and learning that occur within it. This book presents a case for the development of classrooms in which students are encouraged to construct deep understandings of important concepts. Jacqueline Grennon Brooks and Martin Brooks present a new set of images for educational settings, images that emerge from student engagement, interaction, reflection, and construction. They have considerable experience in creating constructivist educational settings and conducting research on those settings. Authentic examples are provided throughout the book, as are suggestions for administrators, teachers, and policymakers. For the new edition of their popular book, the authors have written an introduction that places their work in today's educational renewal setting. Today, they urge, the case for constructivist classrooms is much stronger and the need more critical. Note: This product listing is for the Adobe Acrobat (PDF) version of the book.
Differentiated Primary Science
What is differentiation? How can it be put into practice in primary science lessons? Is it really possible to provide differentiated learning activities for a class of thirty or more primary children? Taking a refreshingly pragmatic approach, Anne Qualter addresses these challenging issues in this book. Drawing on her own experience as a classroom teacher combined with research undertaken in a wide range of primary classrooms, the author shows that genuinely differentiated primary science is achievable. Using several classroom examples, she argues that differentiation is not simply about categorizing children as more or less able but involves the teacher in complex decisions which take account of the child's understanding and capabilities, their cultural background, gender, linguistic capabilities, interests and a variety of other factors. The book will be invaluable reading for both trainee and practising primary school teachers.
Highly Siderophile and Strongly Chalcophile Elements in High-Temperature Geochemistry and Cosmochemistry
Highly Siderophile and Strongly Chalcophile Elements in High Temperature Geochemistry and Cosmochemistry, Volume 81 This RiMG (Reviews in Mineralogy & Geochemistry) volume investigates the application of highly siderophile (HSE) and strongly chalcophile elements. This volume has its origin in a short course sponsored by the Mineralogical Society of America and the Geochemical Society held in San Diego, California on the 11th and 12th December 2015, ahead of the American Geophysical Union’s Fall Meeting, which featured a session with the same title. Topics in this volume include: analytical methods and data quality experimental constraints applied to understanding HSE partitioning nucleosyn...
