Download or read book Little Johnny Sarcasm and Wit written by John Laird and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2009-03 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For those not familiar with Little Johnny, he cleverly exemplifies some of the more sarcastic qualities of Calvin from Calvin and Hobbes, Bart from The Simpsons, or any one of the South Park characters. While a casual observer might mistake his sarcasm as youthful ignorance, a closer look reveals just how calculated his wit can be. And it's this wit that has yet to be made collectively available to humor enthusiasts...until now. Little Johnny Sarcasm and Wit is the result of an exhaustive search around the world (wide web, mostly), countless hours sifting through archives (unsolicited email, mostly), and documenting renowned comedians (wannabes, mostly). The immediate fallout of this undertaking was quite rough around the edges, but through shrewd editing emerged a hearty collection of the most whimsical Little Johnny anecdotes available each having a unique ebb and flow.

Download or read book Why Johnny Still Can t Read written by Rudolf Flesch and published by HarperCollins Publishers. This book was released on 1983 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Back Cover: In this incendiary sequel to his earlier best-seller, Why Johnny Can't Read, Rudolf Flesch contends that our most common method of teaching reading is fraudulent and pernicious and has failed miserably. For fifty years the vast majority of American schoolchildren have been taught to read by the look-and-say method rather than by traditional phonics. Because of it, says Dr. Flesch, the majority of today's American adults are handicapped readers. Indeed, the U.S. literacy rate has dropped below that of every European nation. His wide-ranging research shows how educators have conducted a continuing defense of this teaching method despite hundreds of scientific studies proving its ineffectiveness. Bound to stir controversy and discussion, this book is must reading for parents, educators, administrators, and public officials responsible for allocating educational funds.

Download or read book Time In written by Tammie Erickson and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2012-03-28 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teachers and counselors are failing to give students the tools they need to succeed in the classroom and beyond. This book represents a fresh perspective on why this is, and presents real solutions that work. Washington would have us believe that this gap can be closed if only we can become better at packaging and presenting information. Of course, that was the focus of No Child Left Behind (NCLB) and the results havent been encouraging. Other sectors tell us that technology will win the day and engage the minds of young learners. Still others argue for longer school days or more teacher accountability. Sarah Brown-Wessling, the 2010 Teacher of the Year, said it best: I think we often operate in the classrooms as if our agendas take precedence over our students lives and the developmental reality of their situation. This book will help you bring the focus more clearly onto the relationship aspect of learning and give you real tools that will make it easier for you to bring your passion for teaching to those who need it most.

Download or read book Critical Thinking written by Christopher P. Dwyer and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-05-09 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dwyer's book is unique and distinctive as it presents and discusses a modern conceptualization of critical thinking – one that is commensurate with the exponential increase in the annual output of knowledge. The abilities of navigating new knowledge outputs, engaging in enquiry and constructively solving problems are not only important in academic contexts, but are also essential life skills. Specifically, the book provides a modern, detailed, accessible and integrative model of critical thinking that accounts for critical thinking sub-skills and real-world applications; and is commensurate with the standards of twenty-first-century knowledge. The book provides both opportunities to learn and apply these skills through a series of exercises, as well as guidelines on how critical thinking can be developed and practised, in light of existing psychological research, which can be used to enhance the experience of critical thinking training and facilitate gains in critical thinking ability.
