Rick Wormeli: Metaphors & Analogies : Power Tools for Teaching Any Subject

Description

Metaphors and analogies are more than figurative language suitable only for English classes and standardized test questions. They are power tools" that can electrify learning in every subject and at all grade levels. Metaphors show students how to make connections between the concrete and the abstract, prior knowledge and unfamiliar concepts, and language and image. To exploit these powers, however, teachers must learn how to use metaphors and analogies strategically and for specific purposes, helping students discover, create, and deconstruct effective comparisons. In this thoughtful and nuanced book, Rick Wormeli examines a wide range of powerful metaphors--from the rhetoric of political speeches to mathematical models to concrete spellings and body sculptures that symbolically portray abstractions. Metaphors & Analogies is filled with provocative illustrations of metaphors in action and practical tips about using metaphors to improve assessment, professional development, and symbolic sensing. Imagine the possibilities

Cathy O'neil: Weapons of Math Destruction: How Big Data Increases Inequality and Threatens Democracy

Description

New York Times Bestseller 'Fascinating and deeply disturbing' - Yuval Noah Harari, Guardian Books of the Year 'A manual for the 21st-century citizen...accessible, refreshingly critical, relevant and urgent' - Federica Cocco, Financial Times A former Wall Street quant sounds an alarm on the mathematical models that pervade modern life - and threaten to rip apart our social fabric We live in the age of the algorithm. Increasingly, the decisions that affect our lives - where we go to school, whether we get a loan, how much we pay for insurance - are being made not by humans, but by mathematical models. In theory, this should lead to greater fairness: everyone is judged according to the same rules, and bias is eliminated. And yet, as Cathy O'Neil reveals in this urgent and necessary book, the opposite is true. The models being used today are opaque, unregulated, and incontestable, even when they're wrong. Most troubling, they reinforce discrimination. Tracing the arc of a person's life, O'Neil exposes the black box models that shape our future, both as individuals and as a society. These "weapons of math destruction" score teachers and students, sort CVs, grant or deny loans, evaluate workers, target voters, and monitor our health. O'Neil calls on modellers to take more responsibility for their algorithms and on policy makers to regulate their use. But in the end, it's up to us to become more savvy about the models that govern our lives. This important book empowers us to ask the tough questions, uncover the truth, and demand change.

" “The anthropocene is no time to set things straight.” So begins Stacy Alaimo in her introduction to Exposed. In the chapters that follow, Alaimo puts forth potent arguments for a material feminist posthumanism.From trans-species art and queer animals to naked protesting and scientific accounts of fishy humans, Exposed argues for feminist posthumanism immersed in strange agencies and scale-shifting ethics. Including such divergent topics as landscape art, ocean ecologies, and plastic activism, Alaimo explores our environmental predicaments to better understand feminist occupations of transcorporeal subjectivity. She puts scientists, activists, artists, writers, and theorists in conversation, revealing that the state of the planet in the twenty-first century has radically transformed ethics, politics, and what it means to be human. Ultimately, Exposed calls for an environmental stance in which, rather than approaching from an externalized perspective, we think, feel, and act as the very stuff of the world.

Does it expand or limit the potential for local, regional and The Rough Guide to Berlin download epub global cooperation today? How will the current decline in religious belief (at least in many western countries) affect selfishness and society in the future?

Roger E. Olson: The Story of Christian Theology: Twenty Centuries of Tradition and Reform

Description

Theologian Roger Olson believes that the history of Christian theology should be told as a story, one replete with thick plots, exciting events, interesting people and fascinating ideas.'

At first he does not question. Then, however, he realizes that the he too is out of the ordinary, in possession of a power that could doom him to death or introduce h im to a new, hitherto unimagined world of freedom. Why do only a few peopleget to say I love my job ?It seems unfair that finding fulfillment atwork is like winning a lottery; that only afew lucky ones get to feel valued by theirorganizations, to feel like they belong. Every leader functions on two stages--the front stage or public world, and the back stage The Story of Christian Theology: Twenty Centuries of Tradition and Reform download ebook or private world. One cannot lead successfully front stage when one is completely depleted back stage. In a time when pastors are leaving the ministry in record numbers due to cynicism, disillusionment, weariness, and personal scandals, there is an urgent need for soul care in the private lives of leaders.

Kelly Meding: Three Days to Dead

Description

They ll never see her coming. . . . When Evangeline Stone wakes up naked and bruised on a cold slab at the morgue in a stranger s body, with no memory of who she is and how she got there her troubles are only just beginning. Before that night she and the two other members of her Triad were the city s star bounty hunters, mercilessly cleansing the city of the murderous creatures living in the shadows, from vampires to shape-shifters to trolls. Then something terrible happened that not only cost all three of them their lives but also convinced the city s other Hunters that Evy was a traitor and she can t even remember what it was. Now she s a fugitive, piecing together her memory, trying to deal some serious justice and discovering that she has only three days to solve her own murder before the reincarnation spell wears off. Because in three days Evy will die again but this time there s no second chance. . . ."

Seizing the stories we hear and throwing them back at us with a twist, the results are funny, unsettling and surprisingly revolutionary. A riveting play-by-play of a reporter getting and defending a story that recalls "All the" "President's Men," "Truth "puts readers in the center of the "60 Minutes II" story on George W. Bush's shirking of his National Guard duty. The firestorm that followed that broadcast--a conflagration that was carefully sparked by the right and fanned by bloggers--trashed Mapes' well-respected twenty-five year producing career, caused newsman Dan Rather to resign from his anchor chair early and led to an unprecedented "internal inquiry" into the story...chaired by former Reagan attorney general Richard Thornburgh. "Truth" examines Bush's political roots as governor of Texas, delves into what is known about his National Guard duty-or lack of service-and sheds light on the solidity of the documents that backed up the National Guard story, even including images of the actual documents in an appendix to the book. It is peopled with a colorful cast of characters-from Karl Rove to Sumner Redstone-and moves from small-town Texas to Black Rock-CBS corporate headquarters-in New York City. "Truth "connects the dots between a corporation under fire from the federal government and the decision about what kinds of stories a news network may cover. It draws a line from reporting Three Days to Dead ebook pdf in the trenches to the gutting of the great American tradition of a independent media and asks whether it's possible to break important stories on a powerful sitting president.

Taisha Abelar,Carlos Castaneda: The Sorcerer's Crossing: A Woman's Journey

Description

Some twenty years ago, anthropologist Carlos Castaneda electrified millions of readers by describing his initiation--under the Yaqui Indian "brujo" Don Juan--into an alternate reality. Now Taisha Abelar, who was taught by the female members of Don Juan's group, recounts her own "crossing" in this arresting book. While traveling in Mexico, Abelar became involved with a group of sorcerers and began a rigorous physical and mental training process designed to enable her to breach the limits of ordinary perception. The Sorcerers Crossing details that process, giving us a highly practical sense of the responsibilities and perils that face a woman sorcerer. Abelar's enthralling story is invaluable as a virtual "sorcerers manual," as anthropology, and as a provocative work of women's spirituality.

In the late 60s, underground comix changed the way comics readers saw the medium but there was an important pronoun missing from the revolution. In 1972, ten women cartoonists got together in San Francisco to rectify the situation and produce the first The Sorcerer's Crossing: A Woman's Journey download PDF and longest-lasting all-woman comics anthology, Wimmen s Comix. Within two years the Wimmen s Comix Collective had introduced cartoonists like Roberta Gregory and Melinda Gebbie to the comics-reading public, and would go on to publish some of the most talented women cartoonists in America Carol Tyler, Mary Fleener, Dori Seda, Phoebe Gloeckner, and many others. In its twenty year run, the women of Wimmen s tackled subjects the guys wouldn t touch with a ten-foot pole: abortion, menstruation, masturbation, castration, lesbians, witches, murderesses, and feminists. Most issues of Wimmen s Comix have been long out of print, so it s about time these pioneering cartoonists work received their due. Presented as a gorgeous two-volume slipcased set, The Complete Wimmen s Comix includes the ground-breaking 1970 one-shot, It Ain t Me, Babe, the very first all-woman comic book ever published. Edited with an introduction by Trina Robbins."

Cesar Aira,Chris Andrews: How I Became a Nun

Description

"My story, the story of 'how I became a nun, ' began very early in my life; I had just turned six. The beginning is marked by a vivid memory, which I can reconstruct down to the last detail. Before, there is nothing, and after, everything is an extension of the same vivid memory, continuous and unbroken, including the intervals of sleep, up to the point where I took the veil ." So starts Cesar Aira's astounding "autobiographical" novel. Intense and perfect, this invented narrative of childhood experience bristles with dramatic humor at each stage of growing up: a first ice cream, school, reading, games, friendship. The novel begins in Aira's hometown, Coronel Pringles. As self-awareness grows, the story rushes forward in a torrent of anecdotes which transform a world of uneventful happiness into something else: the anecdote becomes adventure, and adventure, fable, and then legend. Between memory and oblivion, reality and fiction, Cesar Aira's How I Became a Nun retains childhood's main treasures: the reality of fable and the delirium of invention. A few days after his fiftieth birthday, Aira noticed the thin rim of the moon, visible despite the rising sun. When his wife explained the phenomenon to him he was shocked that for fifty years he had known nothing about "something so obvious, so visible." This epiphany led him to writeHow I Became a Nun. With a subtle and melancholic sense of humor he reflects on his failures, on the meaning of life and the importance of literature.

• Overcome obstacles and drive stellar performance The Renaissance and Reformation were exciting times of learning and discovery - they pushed the boundaries of accepted thought. The repercussions of this, however, were that they left in their wake a period of universal uncertainty. The centuries-old status quo had been turned on its head. Nothing was stable anymore. Conflict ensued. The custody battle that followed was so fiery it pushed Inner Excavation: Exploring Your Selfthrough Photography, Poetry and Mixed Media free epub war off of the front pages.

The studio heads, longtime controllers of public perception, were desperate to keep the juiciest details from leaking.
