Book excerpt: MUJERES CON TRASTORNOS POR DÉFICIT DE ATENCIÓN Acepte sus diferencias y transforme su vida Descripción: Mujeres con trastornos por déficit de atención, un libro innovador escrito por la psicoterapeuta Sari Solden, MS, LMFT, explica cómo cada año millones de niñas retraídas y mujeres crónicamente agobiadas no son diagnosticadas con el Trastorno por Déficit de Atención por no encajar en un perfil estereotipado: no hablan rápido, no son hiperactivas ni inatentivas y no son hombres. Este libro pionero, publicado originalmente en inglés en 1995, ha ayudado a cientos de miles de mujeres de todo el mundo, atormentadas y generalmente no diagnosticadas, que no se ajustaban al estereotipo del TDAH, a llegar a entender finalmente sus problemas específicos, así como a apreciar sus talentos únicos. Mujeres con trastornos por déficit de atención, un libro querido por las mujeres de todo el mundo, explora las opciones de tratamiento y terapia, utiliza historias de casos de la vida real para examinar los desafíos específicos que enfrentan las mujeres con TDAH y retrata de un modo conmovedor la vergüenza que sienten las mujeres cuando se les dificulta cumplir con las expectativas sociales y de género. Solden explica que el TDA/H afecta a tantas mujeres como a hombres y suele conducir a la depresión, la desorganización, la ansiedad y el bajo rendimiento. Hay tres pasos que fortalecen a la mujer para que tome control de su vida y disfrute el éxito por sí misma: reestructurar su vida, renegociar las relaciones y redefinir la imagen propia. Mujeres con trastornos por déficit de atención, un clásico en el campo del TDAH en adultos, está ahora disponible por primera vez en español y sólo en formato digital. En inglés, su formato electrónico ha sido un best seller constante desde su lanzamiento en 2012. Lo que han dicho los expertos en esta materia: "Sari Solden ha utilizado su experiencia personal y profesional para iluminar el oscuro clóset habitado por demasiadas mujeres con TDAH... Sari fortalece a las mujeres con TDAH dándole validez a sus vivencias como seres humanos útiles que se esfuerzan a pesar de sus graves problemas de organización en muchas áreas de su vida". (Kate Kelly y Peggy Ramundo, autoras de You Mean I'm Not Lazy, Stupid, or Crazy.) "Lo que me encanta del enfoque de Sari es que es personal, humilde, divertido y real. Ella capta el espíritu del TDAH desde la perspectiva de una mujer y ofrece un enfoque positivo y práctico para mejorar la vida. Disfruto su humor, su sensibilidad y su amabilidad". (Dr. Edward Hallowell, coautor de Driven to Distraction)

Download or read book Learning to Write written by Gunther Kress and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003-09-02 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1982, this influential and classic text poses two questions: what is it that a child learns when he or she learns to write? What can we learn about children, society and ourselves, by looking at this process? The book is based on a close analysis of a series of written texts by primary school children and is written for student teachers with little or no knowledge of linguistics. In this new edition, Gunther Kress has made extensive revisions in the light of recent developments in linguistics and in education. The theoretical focus is now a social semiotic one, which allows a fundamental rethinking of issues such as 'preliteracy' and broad social and cultural questions around the making of texts.
Download or read book Language Teaching and Learning written by Debbita Tan Ai Lin and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-06-19 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In every discussion on the role that language plays in our lives, every orator – from prominent politicians and corporate figures to linguists, educational experts, and others – concedes that language is important in all spheres of life. Language is both personal and introspective, as well as public and communal. Without it, we would not be able to communicate and articulate our thoughts and feelings to ourselves, to those in our inner circles, and to those in the world at large. Without it, we would not be able to establish partnerships and collaborations, and to unite peoples of diverse backgrounds and intrinsic values. Without it, too, we would not be able to learn new discoveries and gain new knowledge. The nurturing of a language learning culture is of the utmost importance to ensure that language teaching and learning supports the development of individuals, societies, nations, and populations. Language researchers, educators, and practitioners need to ensure that their learners are empowered to remain relevant. They need to produce critical and analytical thinkers, and successful language users in listening, speaking, reading, and writing. The collection of chapters in this volume addresses language teaching and learning dilemmas and draws attention to the challenges researchers have overcome and those they continue to face. The book chapters here reflect the transcendence by language teaching and learning of ordinary boundaries, especially with the advent of the digital revolution, and provide new perspectives, pedagogies, and approaches that help shape ethical, responsible, and sustainable policies. Readers of this volume, whether language practitioners, students, researchers, policy- and decision-makers, concerned educationists, or any interested individual, will gain new insights and experiences as they explore new identities, new instructional media for interactive teaching and learning and new modes of meaning in diverse local and global contexts.
Download or read book Sustainability in Higher Education written by Peggy F. Barlett and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2013-08-16 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Campus leaders describe how community colleges, publicly funded universities, and private liberal arts colleges across America are integrating sustainability into curriculum, policies, and programs. In colleges and universities across the United States, students, faculty, and staff are forging new paths to sustainability. From private liberal arts colleges to major research institutions to community colleges, sustainability concerns are being integrated into curricula, policies, and programs. New divisions, degree programs, and courses of study cross traditional disciplinary boundaries; Sustainability Councils become part of campus governance; and new sustainability issues link to historic social and educational missions. In this book, leaders from twenty-four colleges and universities offer their stories of institutional and personal transformation. These stories document both the power of leadership—whether by college presidents, faculty, staff, or student activists—and the potential for institutions to redefine themselves. Chapters recount, among other things, how inclusive campus governance helped mobilize students at the University of South Carolina; how a course at the Menominee Nation's tribal college linked sustainability and traditional knowledge; how the president of Furman University convinced a conservative campus community to make sustainability a strategic priority; how students at San Diego State University built sustainability into future governance while financing a LEED platinum-certified student center; and how sustainability transformed pedagogy in a lecture class at Penn State. As this book makes clear, there are many paths to sustainability in higher education. These stories offer a snapshot of what has been accomplished and a roadmap to what is possible.
