Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: School of Errors establishes another voice in the discussion of how to promote safe schools. It challenges the unchecked expansion of school fortification and questions the realized benefit of inter-agency collaboration during a sentinel event. This book offers an alternative to traumatizing simulations by providing clear options for improving school safety by the empirically-proven effective measures of leakage detection (preventive) and sensemaking (reactive). School of Errors restores the scientific method to school safety and clears a path through the media rhetoric fogging this vital topic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learning by erring Is it possible to learn from your mistakes? While there is evidence to the positive, there is also evidence suggesting that whether mistakes may teach you anything depends on genetic disposition as well as supervisors handling those mistakes. Apparently, it is of utter importance to see how things cannot work, what things are not like, and what you do not know. Through this negative knowledge, learning through errors may be achieved. In this book, the authors look at errors and their potentials for the learning process, as well as the sort of environment that does make a positive difference concerning these concepts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Errors in School Books: Dedicated to the Advancement of Learning To all Persons interested in the Advancement of Learning: In submitting to you Errors in School-Books we call your attention to the previous search for errors which we instituted over a year ago and invited teachers to compete. The details concerning that search, and the results finally obtained, are fully set forth in the following pages. We have now decided to institute another search for errors more comprehensive than the former; and, as truth has no limitations, we have decided to invite all persons throughout the world to join in the search for the elimination of errors from the text-books or school-books of the United States. There are many persons not school-teachers who take deep interest in education, and who have expressed their disappointment at not being invited to compete in searching for errors in school-books. Here in the United States we recognize that there is no monopoly of brains, and that intellectual strength may exist in any individual, however humble his situation in life, and we are of the opinion that it is possible that some of the most successful competitors may be outside the ranks of schoolteachers. Therefore, we earnestly urge every one who wishes to benefit the school children of the country to send to us any statement that may appear erroneous in any school-book. As an additional stimulus we have decided to award one of our best pneumatic-tired Columbia Safeties, '93 pattern, price $150, to each of the five persons who shall send to us the greatest number of errors which shall be determined to be errors by the publishers and the authors of the books in which they occur, or by a board of examiners which we may appoint.

Download or read book Student Misconceptions and Errors in Physics and Mathematics written by Teresa Neidorf and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-10-30 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access report explores the nature and extent of students’ misconceptions and misunderstandings related to core concepts in physics and mathematics and physics across grades four, eight and 12. Twenty years of data from the IEA’s Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) and TIMSS Advanced assessments are analyzed, specifically for five countries (Italy, Norway, Russian Federation, Slovenia, and the United States) who participated in all or almost all TIMSS and TIMSS Advanced assessments between 1995 and 2015. The report focuses on students’ understandings related to gravitational force in physics and linear equations in mathematics. It identifies some specific misconceptions, errors, and misunderstandings demonstrated by the TIMSS Advanced grade 12 students for these core concepts, and shows how these can be traced back to poor foundational development of these concepts in earlier grades. Patterns in misconceptions and misunderstandings are reported by grade, country, and gender. In addition, specific misconceptions and misunderstandings are tracked over time, using trend items administered in multiple assessment cycles. The study and associated methodology may enable education systems to help identify specific needs in the curriculum, improve inform instruction across grades and also raise possibilities for future TIMSS assessment design and reporting that may provide more diagnostic outcomes.

Download or read book How to Fix the Schools written by Dr. Clifford Bebell and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2013-11 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The educational system in the United States is broken, and it's time to do something about it! In this guide, author Clifford Bebell, EdD, who taught at several universities, exposes major flaws in our schools and shows what can be done to improve them. He offers solutions aimed at fixing the system so that all students succeed. He outlines the most serious problems that prevent students from achieving, such as improper use of homework, the grading system, inadequate treatment of reading deficiencies, teaching as "telling," and poor testing practices. What's more, inertia, special interest groups, inadequate funding, and the sheer size of our school systems only make it harder to help students. All too often, we treat students the same-requiring them to learn in ways that are uncomfortable or inappropriate for their level of achievement. Meanwhile, higher-achieving students are forced to simply wait while others catch up. Whether you are a parent, teacher, administrator, policy maker or citizen, you can find new ideas and practical approaches for improving education for all students in this detailed analysis. Discover what the future of education should look like in How to Fix the Schools.

Book excerpt: From one of the foremost authorities on education in the United States, former U.S. assistant secretary of education, an incisive, comprehensive look at today’s American school system that argues against those who claim it is broken and beyond repair; an impassioned but reasoned call to stop the privatization movement that is draining students and funding from our public schools. In a chapter-by-chapter breakdown she puts forth a plan for what can be done to preserve and improve our public schools. She makes clear what is right about U.S. education, how policy makers are failing to address the root causes of educational failure, and how we can fix it.
Download or read book A Shepherd to Fools written by Drew Mendelson and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2021-08-12 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Shepherd to Fools is the second of Drew Mendelson’s trilogy of Vietnam War novels that began with Song Ba To and will conclude with Poke the Dragon. Shepherd: It is the ragged end of the Vietnam war. With the debacle of a failing South Vietnamese invasion of Northern Laos as background, A Shepherd to Fools tells the harrowing tale of a covert Hatchet Team of US soldiers and Montagnard mercenaries. They are ordered to find and capture or kill a band of American deserters, called Longshadows, before the world learns of their paralyzing rebellion. An earlier attempt to capture them failed disastrously, the facts of it buried. Captain Hugh Englander commands the Hatchet Team. He is a humorless bastard, sneering and discourteous to every regular army soldier. He cares little for the welfare of his own men and nothing for the lives of the deserters. The conflict between him and Captain David Weisman, the artillery officer assigned to the mission for artillery support, threatens to tear the team apart. Deep in the Laotian jungle, the team is caught in a final, horrific battle facing an enemy armed with Sarin nerve gas, the “worst of the worst” of the war’s clandestine weapons.

Book excerpt: "Beatrice offers a lesson we could all benefit from: learn from your mistakes, let go, laugh, and enjoy the ride." --JENNIFER FOSBERRY, New York Times bestselling author of My Name Is Not Isabella Being perfect is overrated. Beatrice Bottomwell has NEVER (not once ) made a mistake. She never forgets her math homework, she never wears mismatched socks, and she ALWAYS wins the yearly talent show at school. In fact, the entire town calls her The Girl Who Never Makes Mistakes One day, the inevitable happens: Beatrice makes a huge mistake in front of everyone But in the end, readers (and perfectionists) will realize that life is more fun when you enjoy everything--even the mistakes. Additional praise for The Girl Who Never Made Mistakes: "This funny and heartfelt book conveys a powerful message about how putting too much pressure on yourself to be perfect can suck the joy out of everything. Beatrice's discovery that you can laugh off even a very public mistake shows the importance of resiliency and helps perfectionist kids keep things in perspective. Most importantly, Beatrice reminds the reader that it's more important to enjoy the things that you do than worry about doing them perfectly." --A Mighty Girl "The Girl Who Never Made Mistakes is a must-read for any young (or old ) perfectionist. Beatrice Bottomwell is perfectly imperfect " --Stephanie Oppenheim, Oppenheim Toy Portfolio "It's fun and instructive without feeling overly didactic and the illustrations are darling." --Parenting "This book will help little perfectionists see that making mistakes is okay, and it can be a lot of fun too " --Kids Book Blog
