Looking for more ideas on how to teach film in the English classroom? This book features study guides for twelve different films, from Charlie Chaplin's Modern Times to Spike Lee's Do the Right Thing.
Over his twenty-plus year tenure in Hollywood, Spike Lee has produced a number of controversial films that unapologetically confront sensitive social issues, particularly those of race relations and discrimination. Through his honest portrayals of life's social obstacles, he challenges the public to reflect on the world's problems and divisions.
Spike and the ConcertSuitable for children in Year 2 (age 6), Spike and the Concert is from the Reading genre strand Stories with Familiar Settings, a strand where children can identify with the setting and characters and make links with their own experiences. Spike and the Concert is one of nine books written by June Crebbin and illustrated by Peter Kavanagh.

The technique of parallel spike train recordings using multi-electrode arrangements has been available for many decades now, but only recently gained wide popularity among electro physiologists. Many traditional analysis methods are based on firing rates obtained by trial-averaging, and some of the assumptions for such procedures to work can be ignored without serious consequences.
