Book excerpt: Positive Behavior Facilitation (PBF) challenges traditional models of discipline and control by providing school staff with new ways of supporting youth and encouraging them to make positive behavioral decisions for themselves. As a model for intervening in behavior, PBF examines not only the what; it purports that the why is as important in effectively intervening in the self-defeating behavior of children and in supporting, or facilitating, the demonstration of positive behavior. The author provides details on how to use six PBF tools — practical and functional strategies necessary in order to comprehensively understand and effectively intervene in behavior. The PBF approach helps adults examine how they interact with youth, better understand children’s behavior, and use effective interventions to help facilitate behavior change. PBF Belief Statements The belief statements listed below can support us, first, in understanding behavior before we attempt to intervene in it. Second, they help explain how children, adults, and behavior are viewed from the PBF frame of reference. To be successful as an educator of today's youth, one must be fully committed (i.e., called) to do so. For these purposes, educator is defined as anyone who is imparting knowledge to children and youth. Children are society's greatest and most precious resource. Every child deserves our best and greatest efforts at all times. Effective education of children in the 21st century requires awareness, tools, and skills that differ from those previously needed. Educating today's children and youth requires awareness, tools, and skills that are diverse and multifaceted. Many children and youth are wounded and are in need of healing. These wounds, including those that are very deep, can be healed with the support of caring and skilled adults. Facilitating positive behavior begins with the willingness and ability to do so in yourself. Healing ourselves of our personal wounds is directly related to our ability (or inability) to support children in their healing. Our responsibilities to the youth we serve include extrinsic behavior management and creation of opportunities for intrinsic behavioral change. The support and education of children are some of the world's most important work. It is important to note that these statements are offered not as a means to force any particular set of beliefs on anyone who happens to read about PBF, but rather to describe how PBF views the task of facilitating personal positive behavior and supporting children in doing the same. These 10 belief statements are not absolutes; they are guideposts that can help us navigate our way toward promoting self-supportive behaviors in ourselves first and in children and youth.

Book Synopsis The First Scientific American by : Joyce Chaplin
Download or read book The First Scientific American written by Joyce Chaplin and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2007-08-02 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Famous, fascinating Benjamin Franklin -- he would be neither without his accomplishments in science. Joyce Chaplin's authoritative biography considers all of Franklin's work in the sciences, showing how, during the rise and fall of the first British empire, science became central to public culture and therefore to Franklin's success. Having demonstrated in his earliest experiments and observations that he could master nature, Franklin showed the world that he was uniquely suited to solve problems in every realm. In the famous adage, Franklin "snatched lightning from the sky and the scepter from the tyrants" -- in that order. The famous kite and other experiments with electricity were only part of Franklin's accomplishments. He charted the Gulf Stream, made important observations on meteorology, and used the burgeoning science of "political arithmetic" to make unprecedented statements about America's power. Even as he stepped onto the world stage as an illustrious statesman and diplomat in the years leading up to the American Revolution, his fascination with nature was unrelenting. Franklin was the first American whose "genius" for science qualified him as a genius in political affairs. It is only through understanding Franklin's full engagement with the sciences that we can understand this great Founding Father and the world he shaped.

Book Synopsis Nitrogen sulfur dual-doped porous biochar fibers for high performance lithium-sulfur battery by : Xuefeng Li
Download or read book Nitrogen sulfur dual-doped porous biochar fibers for high performance lithium-sulfur battery written by Xuefeng Li and published by OAE Publishing Inc.. This book was released on 2023-06-30 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Porous carbons have gained great attention for applications in lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries. However, achieving high specific surface area, hierarchical porosity, and abundant heteroatom-doping with facile approaches is still challenging. Herein, nitrogen, sulfur dual-doped porous biochar fibers (PBF@N@S) are obtained via a simple and sustainable activation process of cotton fibers. The as-prepared PBF@N@S exhibits a hierarchically interconnected network porous structure and large specific surface area. Meanwhile, abundant nitrogen, sulfur atoms are simultaneously doped in the carbons. These characteristics make the carbon favorable for hosting sulfur. The PBF@N@S sample with 50 wt% sulfur content (PBF@N@S-S-50%) delivers a high initial capacity with excellent cycling performance. Such high performance suggests that the PBF@N@S-S could be a promising cathode material for Li-S batteries.
Book Synopsis Manual de pago por desempeño by : György Bèla Fritsche
Download or read book Manual de pago por desempeño written by György Bèla Fritsche and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los enfoques de Pago por Desempeño (PPD) se han expandido con rapidez en los países de ingresos bajos y medios en todo el mundo. El número de países ha crecido de 3 en 2006 a 32 en 2013. Los esquemas de PPD están floreciendo y crean una demanda considerable de asistencia técnica a fin de ejecutar estas reformas sanitarias en una forma racional y responsable. Tres pioneros internacionales del PPD se han unido para dar una respuesta a esta demanda internacional. Ellos son: György Fritsche, MD, MSc (Banco Mundial, Washington); Robert Soeters, MD, PhD (SINA Health, La Haya); y Bruno Meessen, MA, PhD (Instituto de Medicina Tropical, Amberes). Su trabajo vuelca sus 40 años de experiencia total en el diseño e implementación de esquemas de PPD en un manual de PPD de vanguardia, dirigido a implementadores y hacedores de políticas. Se unió al equipo Godelieve van Heteren (MD; Erasmus University Rotterdam Global Health Initiative (RGHI)), quien realizó la co-edición a fin de darle al manual consistencia, contenido y formato. Cedric Ndizeye, MD, MPH (MSH, Ruanda), redactó las partes principales del capítulo sobre desarrollo de competencias, y Caryn Bredenkamp, PhD (Banco Mundial, Washington) contribuyó con el capítulo 5 sobre equidad. Actualmente, existe poco conocimiento entre muchos de los que ejecutan reformas sanitarias sobre cómo implementar proyectos piloto de pago por desempeño y cómo ampliarlos a nivel nacional en forma inteligente. En un contexto de gran demanda de un diseño sólido y experiencia en la implementación, y dada la rápida expansión de los programas de Financiación Basada en Resultados, existe una necesidad urgente de desarrollar competencias para el diseño e implementación de programas de FBR. Hasta el momento, ha habido poco interés en combinar las enseñanzas de esas experiencias en un solo volumen y, más aún, en un formato que sirva como guía a los implementadores. Este manual es una respuesta a las preguntas más urgentes sobre programas de FBR del lado de la oferta, del cual el PPD es parte. Este manual estará disponible en una versión on-line, que será actualizada en forma regular, y una versión impresa en 3 idiomas (inglés, francés y español).

Book Synopsis Rational Reasoning with Finite Conditional Knowledge Bases by : Christian Eichhorn
Download or read book Rational Reasoning with Finite Conditional Knowledge Bases written by Christian Eichhorn and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-12-28 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nonmonotonic reasoning is a discipline of computer science, epistemology, and cognition: It models inferences where classical logic is inadequate in symbolic AI, defines normative models for reasoning with defeasible information in epistemology, and models human reasoning under information change in cognition. Its building blocks are defeasible rules formalised as DeFinetti conditionals. In this thesis, Christian Eichhorn examines qualitative and semi-quantitative inference relations on top said conditionals, using the conditional structure of the knowledge base and Spohn’s Ordinal Conditional Functions, using established properties. Converting network approaches from probabilistics, he shows how to approach the relations with regard to implementation.
Book Synopsis Sulfate Minerals by : Charles N. Alpers
Download or read book Sulfate Minerals written by Charles N. Alpers and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2018-12-17 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 40 of Reviews in Mineralogy and Geochemistry compiles and synthesizes current information on sulfate minerals from a variety of perspectives, including crystallography, geochemical properties, geological environments of formation, thermodynamic stability relations, kinetics of formation and dissolution, and environmental aspects. The first two chapters cover crystallography (Chapter 1) and spectroscopy (Chapter 2). Environments with alkali and alkaline earth sulfates are described in the next three chapters, on evaporites (Chapter 3), barite-celestine deposits (Chapter 4), and the kinetics of precipitation and dissolution of gypsum, barite, and celestine (Chapter 5). Acidic environments are the theme for the next four chapters, which cover soluble metal salts from sulfide oxidation (Chapter 6), iron and aluminum hydroxysulfates (Chapter 7), jarosites in hydrometallugy (Chapter 8), and alunite-jarosite crystallography, thermodynamics, and geochronology (Chapter 9). The next two chapters discuss thermodynamic modeling of sulfate systems from the perspectives of predicting sulfate-mineral solubilities in waters covering a wide range in composition and concentration (Chapter 10) and predicting interactions between sulfate solid solutions and aqueous solutions (Chapter 11). The concluding chapter on stable-isotope systematics (Chapter 12) discusses the utility of sulfate minerals in understanding the geological and geochemical processes in both high- and low-temperature environments, and in unraveling the past evolution of natural systems through paleoclimate studies. The review chapters in this volume were the basis for a short course on sulfate minerals sponsored by the Mineralogical Society of America (MSA) November 11-12, 2000 in Tahoe City, California, prior to the Annual Meeting of MSA, the Geological Society of America, and other associated societies in nearby Reno, Nevada. The conveners of the course (and editors of this volume of Reviews in Mineralogy and Geochemistry), Alpers, John Jambor, and Kirk Nordstrom, also organized related topical sessions at the GSA meeting on sulfate minerals in both hydrothermal and low-temperature environments.

Book excerpt: »Inheriting Dance. An Invitation from Pina« sets out at the historical moment we found ourselves in after the passing of Pina Bausch. The Pina Bausch Foundation started their work of carrying the artistic heritage of dancer and choreographer Pina Bausch into the future. This book reflects discussions and questions aroused by her work: How to archive dance? How to deal with the performative heritage at the outset of the 21st century? How to describe the performativity of remembering? And finally, what is the task of an archive for tomorrow, an archive to serve as a workshop for the future? Furthermore, »Inheriting Dance« provides profound insight into the practical work of the Pina Bausch Foundation, on a local, national and global level, aiming at an archive as a place of transformation, exchange, creative production, and artistic practice, similar to an abundantly growing garden. A place for future generations of dancers, artists, non-professionals, and scholars. Contributions by Salomon Bausch, Stephan Brinkmann, Royd Climenhaga, Katharina Kelter, Gabriele Klein, Sharon Lehner, Keziah Claudine Nanevie, Linda Seljimi, Bernhard Thull, Michelle Urban and Marc Wagenbach.
