Download or read book Beloved Teacher written by Patricia Ramsey and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2012-09 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beloved Teacher: my journey with the Holy Spirit is a book that follows the author's spiritual growth from her childhood in Appalachia to the work she did for the past years in the areas of dream therapy, education, family therapy and work in her church. She taught in inner city schools, used poetry as therapy with children at a mental health center and presented workshops in many schools and in communities. All of her experiences have given her a rich background from which to draw personal stories for illustrations. She has presented a well rounded picture of her daily walk with God, showing both her vulnerability and her desire to grow spiritually. Her willingness to share her faults enables us to see her dependency on the Holy Spirit and to celebrate with her when things go "right." It is the importance of the journey that she brings us to see, and the delight and gratitude for the "beloved teacher."

Book excerpt: Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, Toni Morrison’s Beloved is a spellbinding and dazzlingly innovative portrait of a woman haunted by the past. Sethe was born a slave and escaped to Ohio, but eighteen years later she is still not free. She has borne the unthinkable and not gone mad, yet she is still held captive by memories of Sweet Home, the beautiful farm where so many hideous things happened. Meanwhile Sethe’s house has long been troubled by the angry, destructive ghost of her baby, who died nameless and whose tombstone is engraved with a single word: Beloved. Sethe works at beating back the past, but it makes itself heard and felt incessantly in her memory and in the lives of those around her. When a mysterious teenage girl arrives, calling herself Beloved, Sethe’s terrible secret explodes into the present. Combining the visionary power of legend with the unassailable truth of history, Morrison’s unforgettable novel is one of the great and enduring works of American literature.
Download or read book Singular Intimacies written by Danielle Ofri, MD and published by Beacon Press. This book was released on 2009-04-01 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “finely gifted writer” shares “fifteen brilliantly written episodes covering the years from studenthood to the end of medical residency” (Oliver Sacks, MD, author of The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat) Singular Intimacies is the story of becoming a doctor by immersion at Bellevue Hospital, the oldest public hospital in the country—and perhaps the most legendary. It is both the classic inner-city hospital and a unique amalgam of history, insanity, beauty, and intellect. When Danielle Ofri enters these 250-year-old doors as a tentative medical student, she is immediately plunged into the teeming world of urban medicine: mysterious illnesses, life-and-death decisions, patients speaking any one of a dozen languages, and overworked interns devising creative strategies to cope with the feverish intensity of a big-city hospital. Yet the emphasis of Singular Intimacies is not so much on the arduous hours in medical training (which certainly exist here), but on the evolution of an instinct for healing. In a hospital without the luxury of private physicians, where patients lack resources both financial and societal, where poverty and social strife are as much a part of the pathology as any microbe, it is the medical students and interns who are thrust into the searing intimacy that is the doctor-patient relationship. In each memorable chapter, Ofri’s progress toward becoming an experienced healer introduces not just a patient in medical crisis, but a human being with an intricate and compelling history. Ofri learns to navigate the tangled vulnerabilities of doctor and patient—not to simply battle the disease.

Download or read book Teaching with the Screen written by Dan Leopard and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teaching with the Screen explores the forms that pedagogy takes as teachers and students engage with the screens of popular culture. By necessity, these forms of instruction challenge traditional notions of what constitutes education. Spotlighting the visual, spatial, and relational aspects of media-based pedagogy using a broad range of critical methodologies-textual analysis, interviews, and participant observation-and placing it at the intersection of education, anthropology, and cultural studies, this book traces a path across historically specific instances of media that function as pedagogy: Hollywood films that feature teachers as protagonists, a public television course on French language and culture, a daily television "news" program created by high school students, and a virtual reality training simulation funded by the US Army. These case studies focus on teachers as pedagogical agents (teacher plus screen) who unite the two figures that have polarized earlier debates regarding the use of media and technology in educational settings: the beloved teacher and the teaching machine.

Download or read book The Tyranny of Tradition in Piano Teaching written by Walter Ponce and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2019-09-27 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The strict traditions of piano teaching have remained entrenched for generations. The dominant influence of Muzio Clementi (1752-1832), the first composer-pedagogue of the instrument, brought about an explosion of autocratic instruction and bizarre teaching systems, exemplified in the mind-numbing drills of Hanon's "The Virtuoso Pianist." These practices--considered absurd or abusive by many--persist today at all levels of piano education. This book critically examines two centuries of teaching methods and encourages instructors to do away with traditions that disconnect mental and creative skills.

Download or read book Blooming Blossoms written by Hawthorn Cheu Ph.D. and published by Partridge Publishing Singapore. This book was released on 2019-08-31 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This anthology is essentially dealing with tit-bits of life experiences. Life is beautiful if you intend it to be, or make it out to be. In fact, life can be as beautiful as flowers if you ignore the ugly side of race-based politics. That’s why this anthology is talking about life that blooms as beautifully as flowers: hence the title “Blooming Blossoms.” However, since life is not something permanent, just as flowers that bloom and wither, it is fleeting in moment. Let us treasure life as we live each day. Let us think as if we are going to live forever and live each day as if it is the last day of our life. As you read these poems, we wish that they make you smile as you live each day full of love and love-loaded emotion!
