Sweller's Cognitive Load Theory in Action
What is it that enables students to learn from some classroom activities, yet leaves them totally confused by others? Although we can't see directly into students' minds, we do have Cognitive Load Theory, and this is the next best thing. Built on the foundation of all learning, the human memory system, Cognitive Load Theory details the exact actions that teachers can take to maximise student outcomes.Written under the guidance, and thoroughly reviewed by the originator of CLT, John Sweller, this practical guide summarises over 30 years of research in this field into clear and easily understandable terms. This book features both a thorough discussion of the core principles of CLT and a wide array of classroom-ready strategies to apply it to art, music, history, chemistry, PE, mathematics, computer science, economics, biology, and more.

The Curve
The Curve by Nicholas Lovell is a breakthrough business idea: Chris Anderson's The Long Tail meets Seth Godin's Purple Cow The Curve is a new way of doing business and of seeing the world. For most of the last century, companies strived to sell more and more products at uniform prices. But the future of business is about variation: tailoring products for customers of all stripes, and letting your biggest fans spend as much as they like on things they value. The Curve shows us not to be afraid of giving some things away for free.

Hate Me
I'm a businessman. A cartel boss. She’s collateral. I have no interest in her beyond keeping her alive for the man who now owns her. And yet…I’m fascinated by the little Russian. There is no room for weakness in my world, but it appears the delicate rose has steel petals. I’m willing to bleed for a willing touch, a trusting glance… A broken little bird. The big bad wolf. A love that could heal even the deepest scars. Hate me or hold me?

Lovell's Prize
US Deputy Marshal Don Lovell works the Indian Territory on the scout out of Fort Smith, Arkansas, in 1878. He is known for a strong handshake and a firm disposition, and for making good his word. Women generally find him ominous and aloof, yet a few know better. What makes the difference is impossible to predict and, for the most part, a woman who doesn't know his character is intimidated. He has that effect upon many peopleOComen and women alike. In any company Lovell is always the lone wolf, separate and quiet about his own affairs. No one knows all there is to know about him. He keeps his distance to preserve a measure of anonymity, which is his chief measure of security. In Lovell's Prize Don Lovell follows trails of rape, torture, shooting, and death. He runs every risk to carry out his mission of taking the law to a lawless land. Lovell's Prize is a thrilling tale of action set in the savage reality, not the misty romance, of the nineteenth-century American West, where all prizes are won at dire human cost.
