Promoting Independent Learning In The Primary Classroom
This book argues that independence in the classroom should be seen as beneficial for learners and also for teachers. Jill Williams makes a compelling case for a climate in which decision making is valued, where children are enabled to solve problems and where children and adults respect each others point of view, arguing that this will be a climate in which independence flourishes. In turn the benefits in terms of teaching and learning will be apparent for both the children and the teachers.
Hopeful
In book one, the radical environmental organization HOPE (Help-Our-Planet-Earth) secretly developed and deployed a virus designed to wipe out the entire world population. In book 2, HOPE is on a mission to completely eliminate the pitiful few survivors. The submarine USS Minnesota has been under water throughout the course of the virus and has not received any new orders. The sea is devoid of human activity and the submarine is low on supplies. The crew is about to surface into a completely different world than the world they left behind at the beginning of their tour. Tanya was on the cruise of a life time. Now her dream vacation has turned into a nightmare. She is now in the middle of the Pacific Ocean on a 1000’ long death ship. Without any help on the horizon, she must somehow try to get back home to discover the fate of her family. Tanya, the crew of the USS Minnesota, and a small group of virus survivors must form an alliance for their mutual survival. HOPE has the antidote to the killer virus and they are not about to share it.
One Italian Summer
Pip and Shannon dreamed of living the good life. They wanted to slow down, grow their own food and spend more time with the people they love. But jobs and responsibilities got in the way: their chooks died, their fruit rotted, and Pip ended up depressed and in therapy. So they did the only reasonable thing - they quit their jobs, pulled the children out of school and went searching for la dolce vita in Italy. One Italian Summer is a warm, funny and poignant story of a family's search for a better way of living, in the homes and on the farms of strangers. Pip sleeps in a tool shed, feasts under a Tuscan sun, works like a tractor in Calabria and, eventually, finds the good life she's always dreamed of - though not at all where she expected.
Help-Our-Planet-Earth (HOPE)
Robert walked towards the hospital emergency entrance. The smell of death was over powering. Many of the cars blocking the ambulance entrance had their lifeless occupants slumped over the steering wheels or their heads propped against the car windows. The sliding doors were propped open by more bodies of virus casualties. Robert looked deeper into the dark hospital and turned around. The hospital was not receiving more patients. Jillian stared over the city of Hong Kong from the eighteenth floor of the luxury hotel. Although it was the middle of the day, the entire city was dead. Not a car, boat or person was moving. The hotel had no water, phone or electricity. Despair washed over her as she thought of her children. She prayed that her two boys survived the virus. The problem was that they were a very large ocean away. Adapting to the new world was difficult. Finding and protecting your family was an even greater challenge.

The Lion's World
Former Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams offers fascinating insight into The Chronicles of Narnia, the popular series of novels by one of the most influential Christian authors of the modern era, C. S. Lewis. Lewis once referred to certain kinds of book as a "mouthwash for the imagination." This is what he attempted to provide in the Narnia stories, argues Williams: an unfamiliar world in which we could rinse out what is stale in our thinking about Christianity--"which is almost everything," says Williams--and rediscover what it might mean to meet the holy. Indeed, Lewis's great achievement in the Narnia books is just that-he enables readers to encounter the Christian story "as if for ...

Unwired
Our society has a technology problem. Many want to disconnect from screens but can't help themselves. These days we spend more time online than ever. Some turn to self-help-measures to limit their usage, yet repeatedly fail, while parents feel particularly powerless to help their children. Unwired: Gaining Control over Addictive Technologies shows us a way out. Rather than blaming users, the book shatters the illusion that we autonomously choose how to spend our time online. It shifts the moral responsibility and accountability for solutions to corporations. Drawing lessons from the tobacco and food industries, the book demonstrates why government regulation is necessary to curb technology addiction. It describes a grassroots movement already in action across courts and legislative halls. Groundbreaking and urgent, Unwired provides a blueprint to develop this movement for change, to one that will allow us to finally gain control.
