Teaching and Learning for the Twenty-First Century
This book describes how different nations have defined the core competencies and skills that young people will need in order to thrive in the twenty-first-century, and how those nations have fashioned educational policies and curricula meant to promote those skills. The book examines six countries—Chile, China, India, Mexico, Singapore, and the United States—exploring how each one defines, supports, and cultivates those competencies that students will need in order to succeed in the current century. Teaching and Learning for the Twenty-First Century appears at a time of heightened attention to comparative studies of national education systems, and to international student assessments suc...
Creating Your Children's Book
Maybe you're one of those lucky writers whose head is bursting with ideas. Or perhaps you have one idea that's been nagging you for weeks, always at the edge of your thoughts. Either way, you're itching to begin writing... A lot of writers, especially when they're beginners, get ideas for fiction from their own lives. This can be useful for several reasons: you're emotionally invested in the topic, you can relate directly to the main character, and if the situation actually happened to you, you're less likely to be unconsciously basing the story on a book you've read... When writers stick too closely to what really happened they fail to develop the elements necessary for a good story: a believable main character who is faced with a problem or conflict, mounting tension as that character tries to solve her problem and experiences setbacks, and a tension- filled climax followed by a resolution that's satisfying to the character and the reader.

A media guru shows us how to use social media intelligently, humanely, and, above all, mindfully. Like it or not, knowing how to make use of online tools without being overloaded with too much information is an essential ingredient to personal success in the twenty-first century.

In Net Smart, cyberculture expert Howard Rheingold shows us how to use social media intelligently, humanely, and, above all, mindfully. Mindful use of digital media means thinking about what we are doing, cultivating an ongoing inner inquiry ...
Make Yourself Great Again - Complete Collection: An Introduction to Mindset Stacking Techniques
You're Already Wired for Exceptional Success BUT: Those same programs also have given you your greatest failures. If you've ever had a complete melt-down, a real failure of your mindset, where the world has seemingly gone to hell and stayed there, you're not alone. It's just sad to tell you that it's your own damned fault. What makes it worse is to find out that all you need to succeed was already programmed into you - and has been since you were born. Then how did you get into that mess? By believing what people told you - as you were raised, - and in every school you went to, - all your on the job training, - every movie you ever saw, - or song you ever heard. All those lessons and examples just helped you believe in something other than your own ability to become great. This collection of 7 books now answers all the questions and more. Because this subject is as deep as you want to take it. And your life is guaranteed to never be the same... Get Your Copy Now.
The Art of Wonk, Compleat
If you're picking this book up fresh, consider that you've really stepped in something. Over 5 decades of research and writing several dozen books wound us up here, polishing up one very unique question. It was the one thing I hadn't expected to need an answer: why winners think and believe as they do. In this book, we'll call the winners "Wonks." Because they figure things out. They are constantly looking at every problem as an opportunity. Everything else before this answered how. What I do know is that it isn't linear from here on out. It's exponential. What I've uncovered and am about to tell you leads right back to a complete new world with infinite possibilities. Far from tying up loose ends, it opens massive flood gates of possibilities. That's the world you just inherited by opening this book. Lucky you. But let me first tell you the underlying secret to how Wonks ended up ruling the world...

The Elements of Drawing
I believe that (irrespective of differences in individual temper and character) the excellence of an artist, as such, depends wholly on refinement of perception, and that it is this, mainly, which a master or a school can teach; so that while powers of invention distinguish man from man, powers of perception distinguish school from school. All great schools enforce delicacy of drawing and subtlety of sight: and the only rule which I have, as yet, found to be without exception respecting art, is that all great art is delicate. I am nearly convinced, that when once we see keenly enough, there is very little difficulty in drawing what we see; but, even supposing that this difficulty be still great, I believe that the sight is a more important thing than the drawing; and I would rather teach drawing that my pupils may learn to love Nature, than teach the looking at Nature that they may learn to draw...
Fiction Writing Technique
Many books have been written on fiction technique, and the chief excuse for the present addition to the number is the complexity of the subject. Its range is so wide, it calls for so many and so different capacities in one attempting to discuss it, that a new work has more than a chance to meet at least two or three deficiencies in all other treatments. I believe that the chief deficiency in most works on fiction technique is that the author unconsciously has slipped from the viewpoint of a writer of a story to that of a reader. Now a reader without intention to try his own hand at the game is not playing fair in studying technique, and a book on technique has no business to entertain him. Accordingly, I have striven to keep to the viewpoint of one who seeks to learn how to write stories, and have made no attempt to analyze the work of masters of fiction for the sake of the analysis alone...
