This encyclopedia for Amish genealogists is certainly the most definitive, comprehensive, and scholarly work on Amish genealogy that has ever been attempted. It is easy to understand why it required years of meticulous record-keeping to cover so many families (144 different surnames up to 1850). Covers all known Amish in the first settlements in America and shows their lineage for several generations. (955pp. index. hardcover. Pequea Bruderschaft Library, revised edition 2007.)
This book is designed to help teachers understand and develop the `reflective practice' skills that will help them to both survive and develop professionally in today's schools. The authors believe that the extra demands that teachers face today demand more than intuition, instinctive reaction or a prepackaged set of techniques. Teachers must reflect on what is taking place, correctly perceive what the options are in a critical and analytical way and make choices grounded in rational, conscious decision making to improve practice. Using real-life case studies, the book illustrates the three levels of reflective practice: reflection in practice, reflection on practice and reflection for practice.
