Thinking Historically - Educating Students for the Twenty-First Century
Two simple but profound questions have preoccupied scholars since the establishment of history education over a century ago: what is historical thinking, and how do educators go about teaching it? In Thinking Historically, Stéphane Lévesque examines these questions, focusing on what it means to think critically about the past. As students engage in a new century already characterized by global instability, uncertainty, and rivalry over claims about the past, present, and future, this study revisits enduring questions and aims to offer new and relevant answers.
Economics: New Ways of Thinking shows students how to find economics in unusual and surprising places. It grabs their attention with real-world examples - the NFL draft, iPod design, rock concert ticket prices, NASCAR - and then provides clear explanations and hundreds of supporting graphs and charts to teach students solid economic principles. Students learn these basic principles in the context of globalization - a process rarely covered in any other economics textbooks.
'Tim Harford has done it again.. he has produced another excellent book full of insight and surprise. Just when you were ready to write-off economists, ADAPT shows how broad and useful their thinking can be. I wish I had written this book' --Evan Davis, author of Made in Britain

The manual describes the author's system of words in blocks of harmony, as well as the classification of words meaning a minimum of English. This system allows not only easy to learn to read and memorize the words, but also develop the ability to create their own sound and semantic association, that is an integral part of thinking in English.
