Many people believe that searching the Web is as easy as typing a few terms into a box and clicking the search button. Like magic, in a matter of seconds, links to precise, accurate, and current answers will appear. Unfortunately, this is not the case. The term “search” is very broad and means different things to different people. For some people it means using an engine like AllTheWeb or Teoma. For others it includes the use of a Web directory focused on a specific topic. For some, search means utilizing not only Web engines but also specialized

databases that may contain geographic data, full-text articles, or government information.

Are you a student who dreads studying, has problems getting great grades despite loads of studying, or just has a hard time memorizing facts and formulas and concepts?

This book is of great value for anyone trying to learn something, especially if you’re a student. Scott has taken the process of learning and has hit upon the methods that most quick learners use, breaking it down into easily understandable and practical steps that any of us can implement

The book is split into three major parts:

1. Strategy
2. Techniques
3. Beyond Holistic Learning

The first section explains what holistic learning is, what the stages of holistic learning are and how holistic learning looks at different types of problems. The second section goes into detail explaining how to apply holistic learning. There are over a dozen techniques split into over ten chapters. The third section includes a chapter devoted to productivity and another chapter on self-education.

The task of helping troubled children to regain self-esteem, or indeed to build self-esteem where none exists, is  a complex and multi-layered undertaking.
This book, while acknowledging the difficulty of such a task for some children, focuses on the elements of self-esteem that are potentially within each child’s ability to manage.
As parents, teachers or carers we have a vital role to play in helping young children to explore and develop these
important foundation elements. One of the ways in which we can do this is through the medium of story.

For ease of use the book is divided into three parts.
Part 1 gives a brief introduction to the ‘art’ of story-telling and the nature of healthy self-esteem and offers guidelines for this particular story. A suggested reading list is provided at the end of this section for anyone who would like to explore the themes of self-esteem, emotional literacy, story-telling or group work with children in more depth.
Part 2 holds the story and offers suggestions for discussion topics which can be used to expand on the various elements of self-esteem covered in each chapter.
In Part 3 you will find a selection of activity sheets together with guidelines for using these with groups or with individual children.
