  • Pages : 304 pages

Download or read book The Search for Why written by Bob Raleigh and published by Tiller Press. This book was released on 2021-01-19 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: EVER WONDERED WHY PEOPLE REALLY DO WHAT THEY DO? (AND WHAT WE COULD ACCOMPLISH IF WE ONLY KNEW?) We need a clear-eyed look at what’s happening in society right now. Social systems are being undermined, or failing, before our eyes. The trust that we once had in organizations, corporations, journalism, education, science, medicine, government—and even one another—is compromised. People are feeling isolated and alone. How do we move forward as a society? How can we connect with and understand one another? How do we find productive ways to communicate, meeting those we are trying to reach where they are and speaking to what’s important to them? And how do we have robust and productive dialogue that (re)builds meaningful, supportive, and resilient relationships and institutions? Bob Raleigh suggests that any approach must start by understanding the why. The Search for Why compellingly demonstrates that we need a better model and follows Raleigh on his career journey to find one. In this book, Raleigh draws on his decades of experience in market research and public-communication strategy, the possibilities of our contemporary era of big data, and groundbreaking research from psychology, cognitive and behavioral sciences, anthropology, sociology, and philosophy, all of which have informed the Model of Why approach that he proposes. For anyone looking to persuade people, heal divisions, or build better relationships, The Search for Why is a crucial step in the right direction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The widely used STEM education book, updated Teaching and Learning STEM: A Practical Guide covers teaching and learning issues unique to teaching in the science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) disciplines.

You’ll also gain the knowledge to implement learner-centered instruction, which has been shown to improve learning outcomes across disciplines.

You’ll also find a new section on actively engaging students in synchronous and asynchronous online courses, and content has been substantially revised to reflect recent developments in instructional technology and online course development and delivery. Plan and deliver lessons that actively engage students—in person or online Assess students’ progress and help ensure retention of all concepts learned Help students develop skills in problem-solving, self-directed learning, critical thinking, teamwork, and communication Meet the learning needs of STEM students with diverse backgrounds and identities The strategies presented in Teaching and Learning STEM don’t require revolutionary time-intensive changes in your teaching, but rather a gradual integration of traditional and new methods. The result will be a marked improvement in your teaching and your students’ learning.

Book Caraleigh

  • Author : Steven A. Hill
  • Publisher : McFarland
  • Release : 2022-05-03
  • ISBN : 1476646783
  • Pages : 241 pages

Download or read book Caraleigh written by Steven A. Hill and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2022-05-03 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Caraleigh neighborhood in south Raleigh was founded in 1892 with the opening of a cotton mill, fertilizer plant and workers' town. The old textile complex, with its "immense" brick structures continue to evoke a strong impression of a bygone period. The old mill remains the community's focal point as of 2022, leading some to worry that Caraleigh's modernized structure may conceal dark secrets. After the Civil War, cotton mills were at the heart of the South's frenzied pursuit of economic and psychological regeneration between 1880 and 1915. As Raleigh's greatest textile venture, Caraleigh itself was founded by a group of cotton investors. The origins of Raleigh's north-south divide can be seen in the many economic, psychological, social and political perils. While the Downtown South project promises a bright future for Raleigh in 2022, a close examination of the city's economic and social stratification in the past reveals the city's inequality, resulting in an affluent north Raleigh and a pauperized "south Raleigh ghetto." This work illuminates previously unrecognized aspects of Raleigh's history, such as how an outskirts neighborhood shaped the city's development during the twentieth century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Raleigh, N. C., Directory, 1911-1912: Containing an Alphabetically Arranged List of Business Firms and Private Citizens; A Classified List of All Trades, Professions and Pursuits; A Street and Avenue Directory in Numerical Order; Head of Households; A Miscellaneous Directory of the City Etc Raleigh, the capital of the State of North Carolina, was founded in 1792, and named for Sir Walter Raleigh, the famous knight and courtier who during the reign of Queen Elizabeth sent the first expedition into what is now the territory of the United States, this having made the first settlement on Roanoke Island, near the coast, eastward from Raleigh. The land on which Raleigh now stands was purchased by a commission, named by the legislature, from Joel Lane, and the streets were set apart and also five public squares, the commission having given names to all of these. The State Capitol stand in Union Square; the Governor's Mansion in Burke Square; the State School for the Blind in Caswell Square, and the other two squares, Nash and Moore; are used as parks. The streets are at right angles and these and the squares are the property of the State and not of the city. The four principal streets, 99 feet wide, are named after former capitals, New Bern, Halifax, Fayetteville and Hillsboro, and point in the direction of those places; the other streets being 66 feet wide. The state also owns the granite quarry from which the stone used in constructing the present capitol was taken, this build ing having been completed in 1840. Raleigh is unique in that the site purchased by the State for the capital, its streets and parks within the boundary, are State and not city property. It is unique in another respect; it is the only city which during the war between the States was formally sur rendered to the Federal authorities; this surrender having been made by commissioners who met General Sherman, commander of the United States forces, in April, 1865, a few miles south of the city.

Download or read book Raleigh written by Tony Hadland and published by Cycle Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is simple yet ambitious: to produce, in a single volume, a detailed and complete history of the Raleigh cycle company of Nottingham, from its founding to the present. It covers not only bicycles but also motorcycles, cars, vans, munitions, motorcycle engines, and bicycle and motorcycle gears. The story of Raleigh is fascinating in many different respects - the people, the products, the production methods, and more. The personalities involved were many and various, ranging from the founder's ambition to make the best bicycles money could buy to anonymous "suits" almost running the company into the ground from fancy offices in New York. But Raleigh also deeply touched the lives of tens of thousands of other people who depended on it, directly or indirectly, particularly in and around the city of Nottingham.

She has an answer for how to politely handle any difficult situation…until she discovers her husband, Sam, has been cheating on her.
