Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grades 4-12 Foreword by Dorothy Watson Miscue analysis may be the single best tool for assessing readers' difficulties. WithReading Conversations, you can take this tool to a new level, moving beyond diagnosis and into developmental strategies that involve not only teacher-student explorations of how students make meaning with texts, but also peer-led discussions. In retrospective miscue analysis (RMA) you work directly with students, engaging them in conversations about their reading miscues. RMA sessions achieve three important goals: helping you understand what readers are thinking as they read making readers more aware of their actions and thoughts during reading investing your students in the process of improving their own reading by building on their strengths. Then as your readers better understand their own strengths and weaknesses, they can take on increasing responsibility by discussing their processes with peers through collaborative retrospective miscue analysis (CRMA). Grounded in scientific research,Reading Conversationsincludes chapters on using RMA and CRMA at the elementary, middle, and high-school levels, reproducible self- and teacher-assessment forms, and testimonials and vignettes from teachers who have successfully adopted RMA and CRMA in their classrooms. Put the strategies inReading Conversationsinto practice, implement RMA in your reading instruction, and get to know students' abilities better than ever before. Then use CRMA to further invest students in their learning and watch as your struggling readers develop the skills and confidence they need to enjoy a lifetime of reading.

Students will also leave on that last day knowing that their teacher is cheering them on for all of the exciting things to come in the future. There is a blank space on the last page for teachers to sign their own name, so that students know that the letter in the book is coming straight from them.

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER FINALIST FOR THE NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD “A beautifully crafted memoir, rich with humor and wisdom.” —Will Schwalbe, author of The End of Your Life Book Club “The idea of a cultured gay man leaving New York City to care for his aging mother in Paris, Missouri, is already funny, and George Hodgman reaps that humor with great charm. But then he plunges deep, examining the warm yet fraught relationship between mother and son with profound insight and understanding.” —Alison Bechdel, author of Fun Home When George Hodgman leaves Manhattan for his hometown of Paris, Missouri, he finds himself—an unlikely caretaker and near-lethal cook—in a head-on collision with his aging mother, Betty, a woman of wit and will. Will George lure her into assisted living? When hell freezes over. He can’t bring himself to force her from the home both treasure—the place where his father’s voice lingers, the scene of shared jokes, skirmishes, and, behind the dusty antiques, a rarely acknowledged conflict: Betty, who speaks her mind but cannot quite reveal her heart, has never really accepted the fact that her son is gay. As these two unforgettable characters try to bring their different worlds together, Hodgman reveals the challenges of Betty’s life and his own struggle for self-respect, moving readers from their small town—crumbling but still colorful—to the star-studded corridors of Vanity Fair. Evocative of The End of Your Life Book Club and The Tender Bar, Hodgman’s New York Times bestselling debut is both an indelible portrait of a family and an exquisitely told tale of a prodigal son’s return.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our built environment inspires writers to reflect on the human experience, discover its history, or make it up. Buildings tell stories. Castles, country homes, churches, and monasteries are “documents” of the people who built them, owned them, lived and died in them, inherited and saved or destroyed them, and recorded their histories. Literature and Architecture in Early Modern England examines the relationship between sixteenth- and seventeenth-century architectural and literary works. By becoming more sensitive to the narrative functions of architecture, Anne M. Myers argues, we begin to understand how a range of writers viewed and made use of the material built environment that surrounded the production of early modern texts in England. Scholars have long found themselves in the position of excusing or explaining England’s failure to achieve the equivalent of the Italian Renaissance in the visual arts. Myers proposes that architecture inspired an unusual amount of historiographic and literary production, including poetry, drama, architectural treatises, and diaries. Works by William Camden, Henry Wotton, Ben Jonson, Andrew Marvell, George Herbert, Anne Clifford, and John Evelyn, when considered as a group, are texts that overturn the engrained critical notion that a Protestant fear of idolatry sentenced the visual arts and architecture in England to a state of suspicion and neglect.

Book excerpt: Edwin Stratton grew up in rural Iowa, where he experienced both the love and loss of his family. When he turned eighteen, Edwin left his small hometown to experience the world. His adventures began in Omaha, Nebraska, where he saved the life of a police officer and began work translating the German language for the local police department and the local hospital. Edwin also became a part of the Chinatown community, where he learned the language and met the love of his life, Mu Waun. Edwin had been courting Mu Waun for almost a year when he received word that Mu Waun and her parents had been killed during a trip to China. In an effort to deal with this devastating loss and move on with his life, Edwin left Omaha to live and work in Promontory, Utah. As he began to leave the memory of Mu Waun behind, he received word that Mu Waun and her parents were alive in China and being held captive. The information was old, and Edwin realized he must go to China to find out once and for all if Mu Waun is alive or dead. Beginning in 1852 and spanning more than seventy-five years, this is a story filled with adventure, romance, danger, and unforgettable characters. It explores the human spirit and celebrates the bonds of family and the loyalties of friendship regardless of culture or location.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even on good days, teaching is a challenging profession. One way to make the job of college instructors easier, however, is to know more about the ways students learn. How Humans Learn aims to do just that by peering behind the curtain and surveying research in fields as diverse as developmental psychology, anthropology, and cognitive neuroscience for insight into the science behind learning. The result is a story that ranges from investigations of the evolutionary record to studies of infants discovering the world for the first time, and from a look into how our brains respond to fear to a reckoning with the importance of gestures and language. Joshua R. Eyler identifies five broad themes running through recent scientific inquiry--curiosity, sociality, emotion, authenticity, and failure--devoting a chapter to each and providing practical takeaways for busy teachers. He also interviews and observes college instructors across the country, placing theoretical insight in dialogue with classroom experience.

This book was released on 2020-11-25 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection is a compilation of practical case studies from academic libraries and librarians working with other college departments, faculty, and/or students. It chronicles their efforts to combat ongoing concerns related to intended and accidental student plagiarism due to the variety of definitions of plagiarism. The contributors to this collection are associated with colleges and universities from around the United States. The authors have a broad range of educational and professional experience and offer unique insights into the wide variety of methods used to help combat student plagiarism in academic libraries.This collection begins with the work of Sarah Clark (University of Manitoba) and Vickie Albrecht (University of Manitoba) as they share how the Academic Integrity Office, Academic Learning Centre, and Libraries at their university collaborated to pilot a program to deliver educational support to students involved in academic misconduct. Their chapter discusses the details of this pilot, as well as the challenges and opportunities that exist in offering educational support in a post-discipline setting.The work of Amy Dye-Reeves (Texas Tech University) shares how a librarian (Dye-Reeves) formed a partnership with the department of clinical psychology at Murray State University to create an academic dishonesty workshop. She describes the collaborative processes taken to develop a disciplinary-specific academic integrity workshop to curb students' plagiaristic behaviors.Sherri Brown (Florida State College at Jacksonville) shares how librarians and English faculty collaborated to design an assessment of students' information literacy skills in an English course. They subscribed to ProQuest's Research Companion database to identify how to cite correctly, paraphrases, and summarizing. This chapter shares the results from the assessment.Monica D. T. Rysavy (Rysavy & Michalak Consultants) and Russell Michalak (Partners in Rysavy & Michalak Consultants and Directors at Goldey-Beacom College) discuss how the Office of Institutional Research & Training and the Library and Learning Center's Information Literacy Assessment (ILA) program teaches students how to cite, and to write. The authors, who appended a survey to the ILA program, asked students to provide their definition of plagiarism and rate their perceptions of their peers' plagiaristic behaviors at Goldey-Beacom College. The contribution of Kimberley K. Vardeman (Texas Tech University) Cynthia L. Henry (Texas Tech University) discuss how as librarians, they partnered with IT, Worldwide E-Learning, and the Ethics Center to integrate the software (Turnitin and iThenticate) into the Learning Management System and to educate instructors about it. This chapter shares the benefits and drawbacks of librarians' serving as the role of enforcing academic integrity as opposed to serving as a support resource for the campus.Navadeep Kahnal (University of Missouri at Columbia) and Rhonda K. Whithaus (University of Missouri at Columbia) describe how students, as new initiates and trainees in the scholarly communication field, need to be trained not to plagiarize through education. The training students receive should show them the correct practices of scholarly communication and the reasons for it as well as the consequences of committing plagiarism.This collection is concluded with the work of Emmett Lombard (Gannon University) who discusses librarians' accommodations of international students, and how and why international students use the library. This chapter helps to frame how academic librarians can help international students avoid plagiarism.We believe this collection of chapters provides a unique overview of academic libraries and librarians partnerships with other departments at colleges and universities to help combat the continued concerns related to student plagiarism - both intended and accidental - due to the variety of definitions of plagiarism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This ethnography asks the question, what does learning to teach mean to student teachers and to those around them in an exam-driven rural school in China? The author writes of the process of using the assessment as a tool for teacher learning, understanding disadvantaged students in the community of practice, and of beginning teachers seeking their identities. She offers a perspective of learning to teach with assessment instead of for assessment, and examines how it shapes the learn-to-teach experiences.
