Book excerpt: This core textbook provides students with comprehensive coverage of African American psychology as a field. Each chapter integrates African and American influences on the psychology of African Americans, thereby illustrating how contemporary values, beliefs, and behaviors are derived from African culture translated by the cultural socialization experiences of African Americans in the US. The literature and research are referenced and discussed from the perspective of African culture (mostly West African) during the period of enslavement, at other critical periods in this country (e.g., early 20th century, civil rights era), and through the present. Chapters provide a review of the research literature, with a focus on applications for contemporary living.
Book Synopsis Beating the Odds by : Anselm Nwaorgu
Download or read book Beating the Odds written by Anselm Nwaorgu and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2008-05 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beating the Odds takes the teaching of Matthew, Chapter 25 and develops it into eight practical principles for living a successful life that can ultimately lead to material and spiritual abundance. In life, we give a lot of weight to the words of a dying man. Christ, realizing that he was about to be crucified, delivers his last teachings through the three parables in Matthew 25 and shares divine guidance on how to beat the odds in life and maximize benefits both on earth and in heaven. He illustrated how people excel or fall short in the face of similar conditions and circumstances, indicating that success or failure depends on whether or not we make purposeful choices. Reverend Father Anselm Nwaorgu dissects God's word and provides the framework that allows you to apply these eight principles to your own material and eternal becoming. You will learn how to: Tap into opportunities Overcome difficulties on the path of life's journey Co-create your own material and spiritual abundance Deal with negative people and influences Create positive affirmation and call your dreams into reality Connect to humanity through productive giving and achieve eternal bliss. Beating the Odds teaches you through God's promises that choices, not chance, determine our destiny and what we do when faced with these opportunities is what truly matters.
Book Synopsis Wild Encounters - David Attenborough's Experiences With The Nature by : Oswald Eakins
Download or read book Wild Encounters - David Attenborough's Experiences With The Nature written by Oswald Eakins and published by UB Tech. This book was released on with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From hobnobbing with Orangs in Camp Leakey, Borneo, pursuing minke whales in the icy cold waters in Antarctica, perilously exploring the territory of a prehistoric-looking Shoebill bird that has just hatched its eggs, giving his imposing narration to the extraordinary event of grizzlies catching the salmons in Alaska, to the exquisite videos of polar bears foraging and hunting for walruses off the coasts of Arctic, Sir David Attenborough has been doing stellar service to generations of viewers like myself who were fortunate to get a glimpse of the unique world that nature hides within its mysterious bosom. Deep, dark Amazonian forests, the teal waters of beaches in the Aleutian Islands, the white frozen wilderness of Arctic and Antarctic have all become so eerily familiar to the common man because of the incredible service Sir Attenborough has done throughout his life as a broadcaster, writer, and a self-made naturalist. This book is an unofficial account of the legendary naturalist Sir Attenborough and his 50 years of service as a broadcaster. When Sir Attenborough narrated in his sonorous voice, the audience sat riveted to the television to watch one of Nature’s most spectacular cheek-by-jowl dance of death between the prey and its enemy in the water- the sardine rush. He brought the wildlife to our homes and he has been doing it for more than 50 years now. From his first show as a co-host to the latest Netflix series A Life on Our Planet, if there is something that remains unchanged, it is his passion for the wildlife. Buy this book on Sir Attenborough to read the world’s most fascinating phenomenon ever to be captured by mankind, rendered in a unique style of narration.
Book Synopsis Handbook for Achieving Gender Equity Through Education by : Susan S. Klein
Download or read book Handbook for Achieving Gender Equity Through Education written by Susan S. Klein and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-05-22 with total page 763 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1985, the Handbook for Achieving Gender Equity Through Education quickly established itself as the essential reference work concerning gender equity in education. This new, expanded edition provides a 20-year retrospective of the field, one that has the great advantage of documenting U.S. national data on the gains and losses in the efforts to advance gender equality through policies such as Title IX, the landmark federal law prohibiting sex discrimination in education, equity programs and research. Key features include: Expertise – Like its predecessor, over 200 expert authors and reviewers provide accurate, consensus, research-based information on the nature of gender equity challenges and what is needed to meet them at all levels of education. Content Area Focus – The analysis of gender equity within specific curriculum areas has been expanded from 6 to 10 chapters including mathematics, science, and engineering. Global/Diversity Focus – Global gender equity is addressed in a separate chapter as well as in numerous other chapters. The expanded section on gender equity strategies for diverse populations contains seven chapters on African Americans, Latina/os, Asian and Pacific Island Americans, American Indians, gifted students, students with disabilities, and lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender students. Action Oriented – All chapters contain practical recommendations for making education activities and outcomes more gender equitable. A final chapter consolidates individual chapter recommendations for educators, policymakers, and researchers to achieve gender equity in and through education. New Material – Expanded from 25 to 31 chapters, this new edition includes: *more emphasis on male gender equity and on sexuality issues; *special within population gender equity challenges (race, ability and disability, etc); *coeducation and single sex education; *increased use of rigorous research strategies such as meta-analysis showing more sex similarities and fewer sex differences and of evaluations of implementation programs; *technology and gender equity is now treated in three chapters; *women’s and gender studies; *communication skills relating to English, bilingual, and foreign language learning; and *history and implementation of Title IX and other federal and state policies. Since there is so much misleading information about gender equity and education, this Handbook will be essential for anyone who wants accurate, research-based information on controversial gender equity issues—journalists, policy makers, teachers, Title IX coordinators, equity trainers, women’s and gender study faculty, students, and parents.

Book Synopsis Mastering “THE” Mast by : Ambili Mechoor
Download or read book Mastering “THE” Mast written by Ambili Mechoor and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2020-12-10 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every life journey in all aspects is unique in its own way. Happiness and fulfillment are what the human mind always envisages or rather craves for. Many a time, this seems to be a far reach. People, particularly the youth of today, find themselves in dilemma and stress to face challenges posed by life and circumstances. , Young minds, often take drastic and quick decisions that end up in deleterious consequences. The nuclear family concept of today has made people more and more self-centered; without any sympathy or empathy towards their fellow beings. A true realization of the self is of utmost importance to make this unique life journey beautiful and blissful. Mastering THE Mast is a collection of poems that talks about the boulders which I had to cross over and potholes into which, I fell walking through the road of life; the eventual realizations that helped me to think of alternate paths to make the journey much easier and smoother. We, as human beings, never realize what we have in life, but rather crave for that missing bit to be worried and anxious about. Each life is blessed and beautiful in a special way by the DIVINE POWER. This realization slowly seeps in once we start to see the beauty and bliss in nature. This book also conveys messages of forgiveness and gratitude, the two significant qualities to make “that one unique voyage” much more meaningful. Every voyage is confronted with storms and cyclones. The exceptional mastery over THE MAST is solely each individual’s perception to reach the destination.
Book Synopsis Teaching to Change the World by : Jeannie Oakes
Download or read book Teaching to Change the World written by Jeannie Oakes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-11-17 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an up-to-the-moment, engaging, multicultural introduction to education and teaching and the challenges and opportunities they present. Together, the four authors bring a rich blend of theory and practical application to this groundbreaking text. Jeannie Oakes is a leading education researcher and former director of the UCLA teacher education program. Martin Lipton is an education writer and consultant and has taught in public schools for 31 years. Lauren Anderson and Jamy Stillman are former public school teachers, now working as teacher educators. This unique, comprehensive foundational text considers the values and politics that pervade the U.S. education system, explains the roots of conventional thinking about schooling and teaching, asks critical questions about how issues of power and privilege have shaped and continue to shape educational opportunity, and presents powerful examples of real teachers working for equity and justice. Taking the position that a hopeful, democratic future depends on ensuring that all students learn, the text pays particular attention to inequalities associated with race, social class, language, gender, and other social categories and explores teachers role in addressing them. The text provides a research-based and practical treatment of essential topics, and it situates those topics in relation to democratic values; issues of diversity; and cognitive, sociocultural, and constructivist perspectives on learning. The text shows how knowledge of education foundations and history can help teachers understand the organization of today s schools, the content of contemporary curriculum, and the methods of modern teaching. It likewise shows how teachers can use such knowledge when thinking about and responding to headline issues like charter schools, vouchers, standards, testing, and bilingual education, to name just a few. Central to this text is a belief that schools can and must be places of extraordinary educational quality and institutions in the service of social justice. Thus, the authors address head-on tensions between principles of democratic schooling and competition for always-scarce high-quality opportunities. Woven through the text are the voices of a diverse group of teachers, who share their analyses and personal anecdotes concerning what teaching to change the world means and involves. Click Here for Book Website Pedagogical Features: Digging Deeper sections referenced at the end of each chapter and featured online include supplementary readings and resources from scholars and practitioners who are addressing issues raised in the text. Instructor s Manual offers insights about how to teach course content in ways that are consistent with cognitive and sociocultural learning theories, culturally diverse pedagogy, and authentic assessment.New to this Edition: "
