The Memory and Processing Guide for Neurodiverse Learners
Armed with the wealth of understanding and strategies in this guide, students will discover how they can learn best, to make studying and revision more effective (and less stressful). Packed with simple, tried and tested strategies and workarounds, this study guide for supporting kids and teens who learn differently (such as those with ADHD, dyslexia, dyspraxia or ASD) explains what memory and processing issues are, and how to work around them. Written by a tutor and specialist with years of experience of working with students with learning differences, this book enables the student to understand the best ways they learn and the reasons behind this. Unpacking processing speed, sensory processing, metacognition, and executive functioning, including working memory, this uniquely relatable and empowering study guide will provide students with the self-understanding they need to manage exams and academic tasks at school with confidence and peace of mind.
Ethnicity and Race
This volume of Global Initiatives for Equity and Social Justice takes a resource perspective toward culture, ethnicity, and race. Its purpose is to foster global dialog about race and ethnicity, with an emphasis on sharing strategies and solutions. While one might view problems stemming from racial and ethnic differences as intractable, the book’s editors and chapter authors wisely and creatively move through and beyond challenges and barriers by highlighting and sharing models, programs, frameworks, and strategies that are making a positive difference. Chapters provide examples and discussions relevant to the K-12 levels, as well as higher education and professional preparation in fields that include teacher education, social work, and medical education. Chapters grapple with complexities such as tensions among colonization, nation building, and ethnic identity. Chapters explore potentials of information technology for opening access to education and building dialogue across differences. Elinor Brown and Pamela Gibbons offer us a much-needed volume that, with clear recognition of problems of the present and past, looks optimistically toward the future.
Mimi
It's Christmas Eve in Manhattan. Harrison Hanafan, noted plastic surgeon, falls on his ass. So far, so good. 'Ya can't sit there all day, buddy, looking up people's skirts!' chides a weird gal in a coat like a duvet - Mimi! She kindly conjures for him the miracle of a taxi. Recuperating in his apartment with Schubert, Bette Davis, and a foundling cat, Harrison adds items to his life's work, a List of Melancholy Things (Walmart, puppetry, Velcro, whale eyes, shrimp-eating contests...). But when he receives a dreaded invitation to address his old school, Mimi reappears, with all her curves and chaos. She and Harrison fall emphatically in love. And, as their love-making reaches a whole new kind of climax, the sweet smell of revolution is in the air.
Things I Couldn't Tell My Mother
Sue Johnston recounts her working-class Liverpudlian childhood with her close-knit family; her teenage years in the 60s, where she worked for Brian Epstein and was friends with the Beatles; and her acting success over the last three decades.
Forgotten Genius
Forgotten Genius: a docu-drama about the life of Augustus Welby Pugin. In this new play, Sue Cole explores the wonderful life of A W Pugin, architect and designer. A leading figure in the neo-gothic movement, he changed the way our country looks, altered the way we live our lives and developed many aspects of society that we take for granted. And yet, he is relatively unknown. In this play, Sue Cole has two main themes: his extraordinary legacy, and why he is not credited with it. Spanning the early 19th century and the modern day, this play is informative, humorous and surprising. It brings Pugin, and those around him, to life. The play is ideal either for acting or for group reading. Once you have experienced this docu-drama, you will never forget Augustus Welby Pugin ever again. Other works by Susan Cole include A Taste of Place and The Sitter and Other Five Minute Stories..
MCU: The Reign of Marvel Studios
“I watched all the movies. I devoured all the articles. I listened to all the pods. I thought I knew everything there was to know about the MCU . . . and then I read this magnificent book. For fans, by fans; hilarious, gripping, and emotional; no infinity stone is left unturned. I loved it three thousand.” —Damon Lindelof The unauthorized, behind-the-scenes story of the stunning rise—and suddenly uncertain reign—of the most transformative cultural phenomenon of our time: the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Marvel Entertainment was a moribund toymaker not even twenty years ago. Today, Marvel Studios is the dominant player both in Hollywood and in global pop culture. How did an upstart st...
