Teaching Primary Science: Promoting Enjoyment & Developing Understanding
This book is a new kind of text linking subject knowledge and pedagogy in one package, rather than treating them as separate entities. The text aims to encourage trainee teachers to teach scientific concepts in contexts which will inspire the children to look at the world in new and intriguing ways, rather than presenting it as a list of facts and definitions. Encouraging critical reflection and offering practical support, this book will help trainee teachers to overcome negative attitudes to Science.
"Bryon here helps people prepare for tests of advanced numerical skills that are used extensively to weed out candidates for management and graduate jobs and for places in postgraduate courses. The main tests are the ABLE Financial Appraisal, GMAT, SHL Graduate Battery, and McKinsey Problem Solving, but they are similar enough that he takes them as a group rather than distinguishing between them.
In this provocative work, Luigi Burzio argues that many common assumptions within stress theory, and phonological theory more generally, are in fact rather arbitrary. He proposes radical departures from recent tradition. In Part I he analyzes stress in the underived English lexicon, arguing that the basic accentual groups or "feet" are not monosyllabic or bisyllabic, as often assumed, but rather bisyllabic or trisyllabic.
With "Much Ado About Nothing", Shakespeare advanced his art, rendering the romantic comedy with greater elegance of composition and expression. The vividly depicted Beatrice and Benedick make it a play of character rather than situation, as the threats to romance are eventually banished and obstacles are overcome. The characters experience a psychological shift, rather than a change in their circumstances, in order to arrive at the love and mutual respect awaiting them at the play's conclusion. The critical essays in this study guide will help those studying Shakespeare's work.
If you're doing anything technical, think Mathematica--not just for computation but for modeling, simulation, visualization, development, documentation, and deployment.
Why Mathematica? Because this one integrated software system delivers unprecedented workflow, coherence, reliability, and innovation. Rather than requiring different toolkits for different jobs, Mathematica has been built from its inception to deliver one vision: the ultimate technical computing environment
