Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is Volume 80, Issue 3 2005 of the Peabody Journal of Education and this special issue provides a collection of works on the topic of making school resources more effective in the U.S. The included articles look at educational finance, the Education Professions Act guidelines for more motivated teachers and leaders, licencing in public schools, a study on how teaching conditions impact teacher turnover in California, student achievement in relation to school facilities in Wyoming, and the value of econometric cost analysis in Texas. The final article includes the case of Williams vs the state of California, where in August 2000, the American Civil Liberties Union filed a class-action lawsuit on behalf of school children against the state of California. The suit, Williams v. State of California, alleged that the state failed to exercise its constitutional obligation to provide equal access to education for all students in the state by allowing deficient facilities, uncredentialed teachers, and inadequate or insufficient instructional materials.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Build a 3D rendering engine from scratch while solving problems in a step-by-step way with the help of useful recipes Key FeaturesLearn to integrate modern rendering techniques into a single performant 3D rendering engineLeverage Vulkan to render 3D content, use AZDO in OpenGL applications, and understand modern real-time rendering methodsImplement a physically based rendering pipeline from scratch in Vulkan and OpenGLBook Description OpenGL is a popular cross-language, cross-platform application programming interface (API) used for rendering 2D and 3D graphics, while Vulkan is a low-overhead, cross-platform 3D graphics API that targets high-performance applications. 3D Graphics Rendering Cookbook helps you learn about modern graphics rendering algorithms and techniques using C++ programming along with OpenGL and Vulkan APIs. The book begins by setting up a development environment and takes you through the steps involved in building a 3D rendering engine with the help of basic, yet self-contained, recipes. Each recipe will enable you to incrementally add features to your codebase and show you how to integrate different 3D rendering techniques and algorithms into one large project. You'll also get to grips with core techniques such as physically based rendering, image-based rendering, and CPU/GPU geometry culling, to name a few. As you advance, you'll explore common techniques and solutions that will help you to work with large datasets for 2D and 3D rendering. Finally, you'll discover how to apply optimization techniques to build performant and feature-rich graphics applications. By the end of this 3D rendering book, you'll have gained an improved understanding of best practices used in modern graphics APIs and be able to create fast and versatile 3D rendering frameworks.
