You will:• Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. You will develop and demonstrate this skill by working on difficult problems, making incremental progress, and revising solutions to problems as you learn more.• Reason abstractly and quantitatively. You will demonstrate this skill by learning to represent situations using mathematical notation (abstraction) as well as creating and testing examples (making situations more concrete).• Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. You will be expected to create both written and verbal explanations for your solutions to problems. The most important questions in this class are “Why?” and “How do you know you're right?” Practice asking these questions of yourself, of your professor, and of your fellow students.Throughout the book, you will learn how to learn mathematics on you own by reading, working on problems, and making sense of new ideas on your own and in collaboration with other students in the class.5432018-09-07T17:22:09Z2024-01-22T19:04:59ZEfficacious Technology Management: A Guide for School Leaders<img alt="Read more about Efficacious Technology Management: A Guide for School Leaders" title="Efficacious Technology Management: A Guide for School Leaders cover image" class="cover " width="510" height="776" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6MTQxMywicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--b69435b65d868980a00d999d38b46abf7f0a145d/efficacious.png" />Dr. Gary Ackerman, an educational technology specialist with decades of experience in K-12, community college, and faculty development has released Efficacious Technology Management: A Guide for School Leaders.

Taking as a starting point the concerns that prompted the Association of Research Libraries (ACRL) to review the Information Literacy Standards for Higher Education and develop the Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education (2015), the chapters in this collection consider six frameworks that place students in the role of both consumer and producer of information within today's collaborative information environments. Contributors respond directly or indirectly to the work of the ACRL, providing a bridge between past/current knowledge and the future and advancing the notion that faculty, librarians, administrators, and external stakeholders share responsibility and accountability for the teaching, learning, and research of Information Literacy.3572018-09-07T17:21:57Z2024-01-22T14:51:53ZReading With My Eyes Open: Embracing the critical and the personal in language pedagogy<img alt="Read more about Reading With My Eyes Open: Embracing the critical and the personal in language pedagogy" title="Reading With My Eyes Open: Embracing the critical and the personal in language pedagogy cover image" class="cover " width="870" height="1302" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6Mjk2LCJwdXIiOiJibG9iX2lkIn19--6ae0f9a9711db262cbd5903042c2a20e78eed73d/9781909188211.png" />Untangling the various approaches to language teaching and their history, Gerdi Quist maps recent thinking in language studies at university. Using an interdisciplinary theoretical framework, drawn from educational philosophy, cultural studies, intercultural studies and language pedagogy, the author discusses the many tensions and currents in contemporary language teaching. The author puts forward an alternative pedagogy, that of a cultuurtekst-perspective, which engages learners at complex linguistic and cultural levels. In discussing the case study in which this approach is tested, the author develops her argument for embracing various critical perspectives through the personal engagement of students. From the start the author acknowledges her own engaged position as a language teacher in a liberal humanistic educational environment. She adopts a self-critical perspective through which her engagement with adverse student reaction leads to deepening insights both for the author and her students as part of the non-linear process of learning. Gerdi Quist teaches Dutch language and lectures on multiculturalism and intercultural communication. Recent publications included a book chapter and journal articles on language pedagogy and intercultural communication.3562018-09-07T17:21:57Z2024-01-22T18:50:56ZEducation for a Digital World: Advice, Guidelines and Effective Practice from Around Globe<img alt="Read more about Education for a Digital World: Advice, Guidelines and Effective Practice from Around Globe" title="Education for a Digital World: Advice, Guidelines and Effective Practice from Around Globe cover image" class="cover " width="492" height="638" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6Mjk1LCJwdXIiOiJibG9iX2lkIn19--cf6e3ecdb89c68645db98bbbbcf72e5d6b2be1e9/9781894975292.png" />Education for a Digital World contains a comprehensive collection of proven strategies and tools for effective online teaching, based on the principles of learning as a social process.
