These subjects transcend disciplinary boundaries and call attention to how matter, meaning, and movement produce complex and dynamic food-human realities. Chapters range from sovereignty to breastfeeding, financialization to food porn, pollination to fair trade. Embedded throughout, art, poetry, illustration, and audiovisual works offer moments to reflect on and synthesize the text-based entries. Through reading, classroom discussion, and engaging with the extensive pedagogical tools, learners and teachers alike may acquire a new sense of things foodish—along with a new sense of their own place and role within food systems themselves.11652022-05-07T01:38:58Z2024-01-22T14:52:31ZResearch Methods for Criminal Justice Students<img alt="Read more about Research Methods for Criminal Justice Students" title="textbook cover placeholder image" class="cover fallback " width="247" height="326" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" />This book is based on two open-access textbooks: Bhattacherjee’s (2012) Social science research: Principles, methods, and practices and Blackstone’s (2012) Principles of sociological inquiry: Qualitative and quantitative methods. I first used Bhattacherjee’s book in a graduate-level criminal justice research methods course. I chose the book because it was an open educational resource that covered the major topics of my course. While I found the book adequate for my purposes, the business school perspective did not always fit with my criminal justice focus. I decided to rewrite the textbook for undergraduate and graduate students in my criminal justice research methods courses. As I researched other open- educational resources for teaching social science research methods, I found Blackstone’s book, which covered more of the social science and qualitative methods perspectives that I wanted to incorporate into my book. As a result, this open-access textbook includes some content from both previous works along with my own additions based on my extensive experience and expertise in conducting qualitative and quantitative research in social science settings and in mentoring students through the research process. My Ph.D. is in Sociology, and I currently teach undergraduates and graduate students in a criminal justice program at Weber State University. Throughout my career, I have conducted and published the results of research projects using a variety of methods, including surveys, case studies, in-depth interviews, participant observation, content analysis, and secondary analysis of quantitative data. I have also mentored undergraduates in conducting community-based research projects using many of these same methods with the addition of focus groups and program evaluations.11492022-03-11T07:23:02Z2024-01-22T14:52:30ZCase Studies in Community Psychology Practice: A Global Lens<img alt="Read more about Case Studies in Community Psychology Practice: A Global Lens" title="Case Studies in Community Psychology Practice: A Global Lens cover image" class="cover " width="350" height="447" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6MzQ1NiwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--0cfee3c05782a3b1c97a353b1a5346bab558fefa/casestudies_cover-350x447.png" />There is no better way to demonstrate the work and impact of community psychologists and allies than by showcasing actual projects conducted in partnership with communities. This textbook displays this work in a dynamic case study format that will ignite students' desire and passion to study and become future community psychologists or those whose heart beats with the beloved community. You can find community psychologists and allies partnering with communities to change racist policies, end health disparities, create alternate settings for youth, foster community-based models to heal trauma, evaluate programs, and much more!11482022-03-11T07:00:02Z2024-01-22T14:52:30ZDigital Marketing Strategy<img alt="Read more about Digital Marketing Strategy" title="Digital Marketing Strategy cover image" class="cover " width="683" height="1024" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6MzQ1NSwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--94a4ec2ebfe7ac0cf65c1c6a1e8678b8ee6d8694/DMBCover_Photo-1-683x1024.jpg" />The Internet has transformed how businesses conduct their activities and how consumers go about buying products.

With chapters written by experts across Australia, this book explores just some of the many ways that students can apply their training in psychological science across a variety of careers and sectors.11102021-11-19T01:54:39Z2024-01-22T14:52:29ZFoundations of American Education: A Critical Lens<img alt="Read more about Foundations of American Education: A Critical Lens" title="Foundations of American Education: A Critical Lens cover image" class="cover " width="683" height="1024" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6MzA5NCwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--c1873fa2554e0f943d39586556c93c63c46b3e75/cover-683x1024%20(1).jpg" />In this survey text, readers will explore the foundations of American education through a critical lens.

Students will learn how to use local history to create an organic patchwork of local stories, interviews, photographs and artefacts contributed by, and for, the community and contextualised nationally and internationally. Through this process they will assume the role of historians rather than passive consumers of dominant ideologies and understand how historical events have shaped diverse views, including their own, of issues such as social justice, democracy, human rights and citizenship.11032022-05-03T18:23:09Z2024-01-22T14:52:31ZA Practical Approach to Understanding Music Theory - 1st<img alt="Read more about A Practical Approach to Understanding Music Theory - 1st" title="A Practical Approach to Understanding Music Theory - 1st cover image" class="cover " width="2048" height="2732" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6MzU1MiwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--a49b1c3c5177db7378fbfd8a642682b0aec7d5f6/BookCover1.JPG" />A Practical Approach to Understanding Music Theory is a textbook designed for the non-music performance major or music business/audio engineer who needs to professionally interface with musicians without needing to write or compose music. The material is designed around a spiral learning model in which a very simple straightforward concept is introduced, defined and explained. From this point and forward the book adds one element of music theory after another until a broad base of musical understanding and application is achieved. Even though the spiral learning model has a linear approach, the book is also laid out in a manner that any music student or hobbyist may treat it as a research manual to search out specific explanations of musical situations they encounter. This text is meant to be an all-inclusive explanation of how music is created, graphically distributed and performed for those who are not majoring in music theory, performance or education. It is aimed at those who are seeking a career in audio engineering, music business, artist representation, minoring in music, teaching lessons in a local community or someone who just wants to learn to play and understand music on a deeper level.

The series of the document has been critical for countries/organizations to develop and revise their food regulations/certifications. Thus, the new release will trigger revisions on food regulations/certifications. We translated ‘’General Principles of Food Hygiene’’ and added food regulations and GHP/HACCP examples from Taiwan to this book. Therefore, it could be a nice stepping stone to understand food regulations and the food industry in Taiwan.10972021-11-15T19:55:38Z2024-01-22T14:52:28ZTrigonometry<img alt="Read more about Trigonometry" title="Trigonometry cover image" class="cover " width="144" height="154" data-controller="common--cover" data-placeholder="/assets/common/placeholder-0e0607cbc50663ddb9e8fd188058bcd2630c730ef6ee322801278607b7d5af8e.png" src="/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6MzA3NSwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--1310ba8fce333d0e01b0e36154ed07a9a951b850/cover.png" />This text covers the content of a standard trigonometry course, beginning with a review of facts from geometry.
