Marge Lial (late) was always interested in math; it was her favorite subject in the first grade! Her desire to educate both her students and herself inspired the writing of numerous best-selling textbooks. Marge, who received Bachelor's and Master's degrees from California State University at Sacramento, was most recently affiliated with American River College. An avid reader and traveler, Marge’s travel experiences often find their way into her books as applications, exercise sets, and feature sets. She was particularly interested in archeology. Trips to various digs and ruin sites produced some fascinating problems for her textbooks, involving such topics as the building of Mayan pyramids and the acoustics of ancient ball courts in the Yucatan. When John Hornsby enrolled as an undergraduate at Louisiana State University, he was uncertain whether he wanted to study mathematics education or journalism. His ultimate decision was to become a teacher, and now after more than twenty-five years of teaching at the high school and university levels and fifteen years of writing mathematics textbooks, both of his goals have been realized. His love for both teaching andmathematics is evident in his passion for working with students and fellow teachers as well. His specific professional interests are recreational mathematics, mathematics history, and incorporating graphing calculators into the curriculum. John's personal life is busy, as he devotes time to his family (wife Gwen, and sons Chris, Jack, and Josh). He has been a rabid baseball fan all of his life. John's other hobbies include numismatics (the study of coins) and record collecting. He loves the music of the 1960s and has an extensive collection of the recorded works of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons.  David Schneider has taught mathematics at universities for more than 34 years and has authored 36 books. He has an undergraduate degree in mathematics from Oberlin College and a PhD in mathematics from MIT. During most of his professional career, he was on the faculty of the University of Maryland—College Park. His hobbies include travel, dancing, bicycling, and hiking.  Callie Daniels has always had a passion for learning mathematics and brings that passion into the classroom with her students. She attended the University of the Ozarks on an athletic scholarship, playing both basketball and tennis. While there, she earned a Bachelor’s degree in Secondary Mathematics Education as well as the NAIA Academic All-American Award. She has two Master’s degrees: one in Applied Mathematics and Statistics from the University of Missouri—Rolla, the second in Adult Education from the University of Missouri—St. Louis. Her hobbies include watching her sons play sports, riding horses, fishing, shooting photographs, and playing guitar. Her professional interests include improving success in the community college mathematics sequence, using technology to enhance students’ understanding of mathematics, and creating materials that support classroom teaching and student understanding.

Both a hit and miss Some chapters are written nicely and is easy to learn and follow. Other chapters miss the mark! Examples are not given for some problems. The student is left to guess or YouTube for help in understanding the steps of how they came to the concluding answer.Useless! One of the worst textbooks I've ever used. I know it can be hard to write about mathematics, but this one misses the mark. It was a total waste of money. Ended up teaching myself the material from the MathLabs and looking up difficult topics online and in a different textbook at our campus tutoring center. Even the head math tutor said it was a horrible book!Warning, Book Alone is No Value This book is worthless with out the code (that is not included) and unless you click on the "more info" you won't see that it isn't included. Great way to rip off college freshmen who don't know any better. Shame on our college, too, as they did not do a good job of providing specifics about what exactly the student needed.

How Children Succeed Pdf

ISBN: B0070ZLZ1G
Title: How Children Succeed Pdf Grit, Curiosity, and the Hidden Power of Character

“Drop the flashcards—grit, character, and curiosity matter even more than cognitive skills. A persuasive wake-up call.”—People

Why do some children succeed while others fail? The story we usually tell about childhood and success is the one about intelligence: success comes to those who score highest on tests, from preschool admissions to SATs. But in How Children Succeed, Paul Tough argues that the qualities that matter more have to do with character: skills like perseverance, curiosity, optimism, and self-control.

How Children Succeed introduces us to a new generation of researchers and educators, who, for the first time, are using the tools of science to peel back the mysteries of character. Through their stories—and the stories of the children they are trying to help—Tough reveals how this new knowledge can transform young people’s lives. He uncovers the surprising ways in which parents do—and do not—prepare their children for adulthood. And he provides us with new insights into how to improve the lives of children growing up in poverty. This provocative and profoundly hopeful book will not only inspire and engage readers, it will also change our understanding of childhood itself.

“Illuminates the extremes of American childhood: for rich kids, a safety net drawn so tight it’s a harness; for poor kids, almost nothing to break their fall.”—New York Times

“I learned so much reading this book and I came away full of hope about how we can make life better for all kinds of kids.”—Slate

Rethinking what's Important When listening to news coverage of education reform and talking to parents and teachers one hears a variety of views about what "The Best" approach to education is. Reading How Children Succeed led me to reconsider may of my preconceptions about what's best for kids, and along the way I learned a few things that I can use to help the people I work with succeed.The argument is that these "non-cognitive" or "character skills" -- things like grit, resilience, and resourcefulness, are often a better predictor of eventually success than mastery of academic skills. These non-cognitive skills are not all one needs, but they seem to be the least discussed ones. This is a great book for parents to read, in particular if you are inclined to get into discussions about education policy with your peers. I won't assert that this book will make you a expert, but it should lead to some interesting dialogs (internal and external) which will help you reconsider any idea you had that what worked for you in school was that right thing for your children.

We Want to Negotiate Download

ISBN: B07M5V755S
Title: We Want to Negotiate Pdf The Secret World of Kidnapping, Hostages and Ransom (Columbia Global Reports)

Starting in late 2012, Westerners working in Syria - journalists and aid workers - began disappearing without a trace. A year later, the world learned they had been taken hostage by the Islamic State. Throughout 2014, all the Europeans came home, first the Spanish, then the French, then an Italian, a German, and a Dane. In August 2014, the Islamic State began executing the Americans - including journalists James Foley and Steven Sotloff, followed by the British hostages.

Joel Simon, who in nearly two decades at the Committee to Protect Journalists has worked on dozens of hostages cases, delves into the heated hostage policy debate. The Europeans paid millions of dollars to a terrorist group to free their hostages. The US and the UK refused to do so, arguing that any ransom would be used to fuel terrorism and would make the crime more attractive, increasing the risk to their citizens. We Want to Negotiate is an exploration of the ethical, legal, and strategic considerations of a bedeviling question: Should governments pay ransom to terrorists?

We Want to Negotiate We Want to Negotiate by Joel Simon is a free NetGalley ebook that I read in late December.Near or around the time that I chose to review this book, the journalist Jamal Khashoggi had been kidnapped and killed in Iraq, reportedly for writing liberal-minded articles with the New York Times and filing for divorce from his wife. Now, about 3-4 months after this occurrence, I decided to actually read this book and perhaps learn about what he may have knowingly gotten involved with or even been working alongside without foreseeing its hazards.Simon interviews journalists who have survived being kidnapped (many of which now work as advocates for victims of crime and refugees), as well as their close family and coworkers (particularly that of Jim Foley), plus experts within law enforcement fields. It brings to light the torturous and arduousness of negotiations, the dangers of choosing to raid and extract, and the regulations of international law, like the Patriot Act. Terrorist groups, pirates, and guerrilla revolutionaries as targeting journalists, members of a ruling class family, and international civilian subcontractors and aid workers, and use kidnapping as a way of spreading propaganda while using less resources to create a broader visible impact and to request monetary ransom and/or the release of imprisoned compatriots. All told, it's somewhat of a political intrigue thriller to read, but bogged down by a little too much jargon.For anyone interested in the subject, well worth the read. When I first read the author’s background I feared the book would be yet another typical offering that reflected a journalist’s biases and own social agenda rather than a simple statement of the facts. I was therefore pleasantly surprised that most of the book was a clear-eyed view of a complex and controversial subject. The policies and practices of various actors from governments to individual family members were described in enough detail to give a good overview of the present state of affairs regarding kidnapping for its many reasons. The one thing that I expected to be at least mentioned by some of those called upon to rescue kidnapping victims, however, was the question of why they thoughtlessly put themselves in a position to be taken hostage in the first place. For spies and diplomats I understand; for aid workers and journalists, not so much; for “adventure tourists” (as the book calls them), going into known danger zones and then expecting the resources of a national government to rescue them from their folly is unfathomable. Mountain search and rescue volunteers will grumble about having to find a hiker who was totally unprepared for the weather and the possibility his phone GPS dying, but no one expresses an opinion about a journalist who was kidnapped and then went back to the same danger area?In any event, I found the book informative enough that I will be giving it to a military special operations officer of my acquaintance.
