Book Synopsis The Whimbey Writing Program by : Blanton
Download or read book The Whimbey Writing Program written by Blanton and published by Lawrence Erlbaum Associates. This book was released on 1995-11-01 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adapted for students by Dr. Arthur Whimbey, a successful author and leading cognitive psychologist, this program utilizes the power of text reconstruction (TR). TR is a proven method for building writing skills used in various forms by many professional writers and incorporates principles of cooperative learning and modeled writing. It is a whole-language approach, but with the guidance many students need. Students arrange jumbled sentences into logical order, discuss their arrangements, and then copy the ordered sentences to form papers which model basic rhetorical patterns. Exercises are interspersed with assignments asking students to write original papers using patterns they have studied. The combination of TR and original-writing assignments strengthens all language skills, ranging from comprehension and logical organization to grammar and spelling ability. As a result, students develop the confidence and competence to express their ideas in well-organized papers using conventions of standard written English. Designed primarily for students in middle, junior, and senior high school, the Whimbey Writing Program improves: * idea organization and writing skills; * vocabulary, spelling, grammar, and punctuation; * careful reading; * critical thinking; * oral communication; and * confidence in expression.

Book Synopsis Why Johnny Can't Write by : Myra J. Linden
Download or read book Why Johnny Can't Write written by Myra J. Linden and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors of this book, both experienced teachers, examine the controversy surrounding two popular methods for teaching writing -- the "process" approach and its offspring, Writing Across the Curriculum. Both have recently been called into question for their ineffectiveness. An alternative lesser-known procedure called "sentence combining," which has been proven successful in numerous studies over the past fifteen years, finally is gaining the attention it deserves. Using the sentence combining approach, the authors present a rationale for re-thinking and re-tooling the English classroom and consequently making the entire educational system work more effectively. This book is useful for teachers at any level, especially those involved in writing instruction. It is also worthwhile reading for those wishing to improve their writing skills. Doing the sample exercises will strengthen writing skills and provide a solid foundation for a lifelong program of language growth.
Book Synopsis Problem Solving & Comprehension by : Arthur Whimbey
Download or read book Problem Solving & Comprehension written by Arthur Whimbey and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This popular book shows students how to increase their power to analyze problems and to comprehend what they read. First, it outlines and illustrates the method that good problem solvers use in attacking complex ideas. Then, it provides practice in applying these methods to a variety of comprehension and reasoning questions. Books on the improvement of thinking processes have tended to be complicated and less than useful, but the authors of this renowned text emphasize a simple but effective approach. The "Whimbey Method" of teaching problem solving is now recognized as an invaluable means of teaching people to think. Problems are followed by their solutions, presented in easy-to-follow steps. This feature permits students to work without supervision, outside the classroom. As students work through the book they will see a steady improvement in their analytical thinking skills, and will develop confidence in their ability to solve problems--on tests; in academic courses; and in any occupations that involve analyzing, untangling, or comprehending knotty ideas. By helping students to become better problem solvers, this book can assist students in achieving higher scores on tests commonly used for college and job selection, such as: * Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) * Graduate Record Examination (GRE) * ACT Work Keys * Terra Nova * Law School Admission Test (LSAT) * Wonderlic Personnel Test * United States Employment Service General Aptitude Test Battery * Civil Service Examination New in the 6th edition: A totally new chapter--"Meeting Academic and Workplace Standards: How This Book Can Help"--describes changes in the educational system in the past 20 years and shows how the techniques taught in this book relate to the new educational standards and tests. Changes throughout the book reflect current educational and social realities: the names of some characters have been changed to represent more accurately the cross-section of students attending today's schools; dates in some problems have been changed; in other problems the technology referred to has been updated.

Book Synopsis Programming and Problem Solving with Java by : Nell B. Dale
Download or read book Programming and Problem Solving with Java written by Nell B. Dale and published by Jones & Bartlett Learning. This book was released on 2008 with total page 872 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extensively revised, the new Second Edition of Programming and Problem Solving with Java continues to be the most student-friendly text available. The authors carefully broke the text into smaller, more manageable pieces by reorganizing chapters, allowing student to focus more sharply on the important information at hand. Using Dale and Weems' highly effective "progressive objects" approach, students begin with very simple yet useful class design in parallel with the introduction of Java's basic data types, arithmetic operations, control structures, and file I/O. Students see first hand how the library of objects steadily grows larger, enabling ever more sophisticated applications to be developed through reuse. Later chapters focus on inheritance and polymorphism, using the firm foundation that has been established by steadily developing numerous classes in the early part of the text. A new chapter on Data Structures and Collections has been added making the text ideal for a one or two-semester course. With its numerous new case studies, end-of-chapter material, and clear descriptive examples, the Second Edition is an exceptional text for discovering Java as a first programming language!
