Book Synopsis 200+ Active Learning Strategies and Projects for Engaging Students Multiple Intelligences by : James Bellanca
Download or read book 200+ Active Learning Strategies and Projects for Engaging Students Multiple Intelligences written by James Bellanca and published by Corwin Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if Libyan terrorists obtained $US36 billion worth of street ready heroin? White Monsoon is a codename for a plot by six Libyan terrorists to flood the United States with bargain-basement-priced heroin. This release intertwines two novels, subtitled, MORPHINE BASE set in March, 1992 and PURE HEROIN around Halloween of the same year. "Scott, I'm mad at you " the voice in Xenia, OH said. "What's the matter, Jim? What are you mad about?" "You sent me your book and I opened it, started reading and couldn't put it down. I read it straight through and hardly got any sleep in three or four days." Then he laughed. "No. You have really got something here. This is a wonderful story." James H. "Pee Wee" Martin, 101st Airborne - 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 3rd Battalion - G Company Morphine Base is an intriguing fast-paced collection of stories that weave together into an international thriller. One story line follows a group of Libyan terrorists with curious non-Muslim names as they weed out a Mossad informant in their midst, masquerade as members of the International Red Cross and transport five eighteen wheelers from Libya to Nimach (an acronym for Northern India Mounted Artillery & Cavalry Headquarters) a town of about 150,000 known for the highest opium production in India. In another story line, Scott captures the world of the opium trade from both the licit and illicit sides of the coin by focusing on one group of licensed opium farmers and their interactions with vicious drug traffickers as they try to bring their opium harvest to market once again in Nimach. High ranking Mossad agents come across the pond to ask the help of old friends at the CIA's training facility nicknamed "The Farm" in Virginia. The Mossad want help finding a missing agent who had infiltrated a dangerous terrorist group and almost discovered the terrorists' plot--code named White Monsoon. Pure Heroin is aptly titled because it is the central theme around which the entire tale is spun. Heroin causes the three year old daughter and infant son of an educational programmer of personal computers to be kidnapped and taken to a remote prison built in a molybdenum mine abandoned by the Russians following their brief occupation of Afghanistan. Heroin causes the death of the daughter and husband of a woman who helps the terrified father. Wonderful people, the father and the woman who helps him find themselves drawn to each other with ever growing yearnings, visceral and deep, as they try deperately to override their feelings and stay focused on finding out where the man's children have been taken. This PG-13 yarn about two American heroes delights all ages according to some wonderful feedback. One twelve year old Indian boy gave it to his grandparents who looked forward to the book more than television and read the book to each other. This seems to be a trend. We're hearing from numerous couples they've been reading to their spouses or to their families once or twice a week and it's helping to bring people back to the dinner table. We've had people receive the book as a gift who were sad at first that they didn't get something by one of their favorite authors. One taxi driver from Oklahoma City wrote, "I almost took the book to Barnes & Noble to exchange it. I'm so glad I didn't. I read it while waiting in taxi stands and had it sitting in my passenger seat. I ended up giving it to a site locator for the movie industry who was looking for farms for another twister movie and told the guy what a great low budget movie it would make."

Book Synopsis Intelligence and Human Abilities by : Colin Cooper
Download or read book Intelligence and Human Abilities written by Colin Cooper and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-05-08 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Choice Recommended Read Psychological research into human intelligence and abilities presents us with a number of difficult questions: Are human abilities explained by a single core intelligence or by multiple intelligences? How should abilities be assessed? With tests unlike the problems which people normally have to solve, or with practical problems closer to those encountered in life, school and work? Do ability tests predict how a person will behave? If so, can they predict whether a person will succeed at school and at work? Intelligence and Human Abilities critically evaluates research evidence from the past 100 years to consider these and other issues. It shows that, despite the apparent contradictions in this research, the evidence in fact supports one coherent model, a fact which has clear implications for researchers, educators and test-users. This clear and engaging text provides an up-to-date evaluation of what the empirical evidence tells us about the number, nature and origins of human abilities. It will be essential reading for students and practitioners of psychology and education, and also for users of ability tests such as applied psychologists and personnel managers.
Book Synopsis The Psychology of Proof by : Lance J. Rips
Download or read book The Psychology of Proof written by Lance J. Rips and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lance Rips describes a unified theory of natural deductive reasoning and fashions a working model of deduction, with strong experimental support, that is capable of playing a central role in mental life. In this provocative book, Lance Rips describes a unified theory of natural deductive reasoning and fashions a working model of deduction, with strong experimental support, that is capable of playing a central role in mental life. Rips argues that certain inference principles are so central to our notion of intelligence and rationality that they deserve serious psychological investigation to determine their role in individuals' beliefs and conjectures. Asserting that cognitive scientists should consider deductive reasoning as a basis for thinking, Rips develops a theory of natural reasoning abilities and shows how it predicts mental successes and failures in a range of cognitive tasks. In parts I and II of the book, Rips builds insights from cognitive psychology, logic, and artificial intelligence into a unified theoretical structure. He defends the idea that deduction depends on the ability to construct mental proofs—actual memory units that link given information to conclusions it warrants. From this base Rips develops a computational model of deduction based on two cognitive skills: the ability to make suppositions or assumptions and the ability to posit sub-goals for conclusions. A wide variety of original experiments support this model, including studies of human subjects evaluating logical arguments as well as following and remembering proofs. Unlike previous theories of mental proof, this one handles names and variables in a general way. This capability enables deduction to play a crucial role in other thought processes, such as classifying and problem solving. In part III, Rips compares the theory to earlier approaches in psychology which confined the study of deduction to a small group of tasks, and examines whether the theory is too rational or too irrational in its mode of thought.
Book Synopsis The SAGE Encyclopedia of Intellectual and Developmental Disorders by : Ellen Braaten
Download or read book The SAGE Encyclopedia of Intellectual and Developmental Disorders written by Ellen Braaten and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 4428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to the CDC “about one in six, or about 15%, of children aged 3 through 17 years have one or more developmental disabilities,” such as ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, cerebral palsy, intellectual disability, and learning disability. Intellectual disorders are characterized by significant limitations in both intellectual functioning and in adaptive behavior, which covers many everyday social and practical skills, impacting learning, reasoning, problem solving, and other cognitive processes. These disabilities originate before the age of 18 and continue across the life span. Developmental disorders are chronic disabilities that can be cognitive or physical or both. The disabilities appear before the age of 22 and are likely to progress across the lifespan. Some developmental disorders are largely physical issues, such as cerebral palsy or epilepsy. Some individuals may have a disorder that includes a physical and intellectual disability; for example, Down syndrome or fetal alcohol syndrome. Intellectual and developmental disorders are significant and growing issues that are studied across a number of disciplines. The SAGE Encyclopedia of Intellectual and Developmental Disorders is aimed at students interested in psychology, counseling, education, social work, psychiatry, health sciences, and more. This encyclopedia will provide an in-depth look at a wide range of disorders, alongside interventions, the latest research translated for an undergraduate audience, historical context, and assessment tools for higher-level students. We will take a truly interdisciplinary approach by also covering sociocultural viewpoints, policy implications, educational applications, ethical issues, and more.

Book Synopsis Thoughtful Intelligence: a Practical Guide for Moral Development by : Musarrat Jabeen Ph.D
Download or read book Thoughtful Intelligence: a Practical Guide for Moral Development written by Musarrat Jabeen Ph.D and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2018-10-20 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘Thoughtful Intelligence: A Practical guide for Moral development,’ is a book for training the mind-set to eradicate self and social incompatibilities to enhance the goodness in the system of humanity. Thoughtful intelligence is the higher order of thinking to train the mind-set to produce intentions and actions. Thoughtful intelligence can be struggled for and acquired. It is comprised of capacity to understand and realize the impact of one’s thoughts, words and actions on others’ (individuals’, groups’, and nations’) survival, dignity and development in time (days, weeks, months or years) and space (geographical land with or without human beings). The book has been vetted by 70 students and 7 faculty members from NDU, COMSATS, NUST and LUMS, to validate its readership based on interest and length of the content to bring about a sustainable change in the mind-sets to grow morals. 85% results of the process found the book attractive to get space on front of studies.

Book Synopsis Deductive Reasoning and Strategies by : Walter Schaeken
Download or read book Deductive Reasoning and Strategies written by Walter Schaeken and published by Routledge. This book was released on 1999-11-01 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together both theoretical and empirical research directed toward the role of strategies in deductive reasoning. It offers the first systematic attempt to discuss the role of strategies for deductive reasoning. The empirical chapters correspond well with the main issues in the study of deduction, namely propositional reasoning, spatial reasoning, and syllogistic reasoning. In addition, several chapters present a theoretical analysis of deduction, related to the concept strategy. The book also presents data about the role of strategies for statistical and social reasoning. This book will be of interest to researchers and students of cognitive psychology. It will also be of value to people working in Artificial Intelligence, because it highlights results on how humans use strategies while tackling deductive puzzles.

Book Synopsis Cognitive Abilities and Educational Outcomes by : Monica Rosén
Download or read book Cognitive Abilities and Educational Outcomes written by Monica Rosén and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-10-03 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses problems and challenges that face educational measurement at a time when multipurpose usage of observational data from educational assessments, tests and international surveys has become a growing global trend. While the construction of educational measures and use of educational data offer many opportunities, they also require awareness of the numerous threats to validity and methods of reducing such threats. Written by leading international scholars, the book demonstrates the complexity of educational measurement by addressing three broad and interrelated topics. The first part discusses cognitive abilities, including studies on fluid intelligence, its improvement and its links to aptitude tests for admission to higher education. The second part focuses on the effects of school and teacher-related factors on school outcomes at individual and group levels, and uses international studies to analyze causes. The third part presents analytical techniques and measurement methods to improve reliability, for example factor analysis using Bayesian estimators, bi-factor analysis, model misfit and solutions, and discusses balance issues in reporting test results. The book provides examples of state-of-the-art analytical techniques for pursuing fundamental research problems, and the latest advances in measurement methods, with a focus on validity improvement. Eminent researchers discuss and provide insights into questions such as: Is it possible to train individuals to think at a higher level than normal for their age? What determines prospective preschool teachers’ skill to perceive mathematics-related preschool situations? Can international indicator design and instruments be improved to use trends and national context variables more efficiently? Can indicator data at national, school and class levels be compared easier? Are value-added measures of teacher effectiveness valid when it comes to hiring and promoting teachers? Is money better spent on teacher training than on smaller class-size? How do theory and empirical statistical data intertwine in building structures of understanding? This book is inspired by the career and personal influence of the Swedish scholar Professor Jan-Eric Gustafsson, renowned for his research on individual differences, especially the structure of cognitive abilities, and on the effects of education on knowledge and skills.
