Download or read book Basic Dictionary Of Synonyms And Antonyms written by Laurence Urdang and published by Orient Paperbacks. This book was released on 1982 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A dictionary as well as a thesaurus, and a much simplified one at that! It gives you all the basic words used in the English language, their chief meanings, all important synonyms and antonyms where needed. To make the meaning of each entry clear, it uses the words in a sentence and where the secondary meanings are considerably different from the first, uses it in two or more sentences. Much larger dictionaries and synonym books are available, but they often confuse the reader by providing long lists of complicated, often rare words, and other technicalities. This book is much more useful, and used with good judgment, should yield excellent results

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over twenty years ago, Dr. Lauren Bradway discovered that all children use one of three distinct ways to grasp and remember information. Some learn best through sound and langua≥ others, through visual stimulation; and others, through touch. In this unique book, Dr. Bradway first shows you how to determine your child's inherent style. She then aids you in carefully selecting the toys, activities, and educational strategies that will help reinforce the talents your child was born with, and encourage those skills that come less easily.
Download or read book Nobel Universal Graphical Language written by Milan Randic and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-05-24 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nobel is a pictographic language based on some 120 basic signs and many arrows of different shape that are mutually combined. It is named after Alfred Nobel (18331896), Swedish chemist and industrialist, inventor of dynamite, who left most of his fortune to a foundation that annually gives awards to individuals whose work is characterized as greatest benefit to mankind, known as Nobel Prizes. Besides the awards for sciences and literature significantly, Alfred Nobel included, among others, a prize for peace (that besides individuals, also organizations may obtain). Although it would be utopian to believe that human conflicts could be avoided if communication tools would improve, the emergence of universal languages certainly cannot make the situation worse! Universal languages are a communication tool, which makes it possible for people of no common language to communicate. They are graphic, but they should be distinguished from picture writings, which only passively offer information on some event or give messages. Universal languages have more similarity with the sign languages that are used for people who lost hearing or the sign language of American Plains Indians, who spoke different languages and could communicate by sign language that they developed. However, written language has some advantages over hand sign languages in that one can communicate at a great distance, particularly today in the age of fax and computer communications, and that one can leave messages for posterity. This is not the place to argue for or against the promise of written sign languages. Graphic (written) sign languages exist today, and the best known are Chinese characters used in China and Japan. The problem with Chinese characters is that there are too many characters and it is difficult to learn so many. It takes years for children in China and Japan to learn so many different characters, and the task would be even harder for grown people to learn if they have not done this when young. Nobel is designed to remove this difficulty and is based on the following requirements: 1. SMALL NUMBER OF BASIC SIGNS 2. SIGNS SHOULD BE EASY TO RECOGNIZE 3. SIGNS SHOULD BE EASY TO REPRODUCE 4. COMBINATIONS LIMITED TO THREE SIGNS 5. COMPLEMENTARY We have already mentioned that Nobel uses about 120 basic signs, which can be viewed as a small number, particularly in view of over 100 signs of Nobel that are so obvious that they can be easily absorbed. The other requirements are also very important. There are many signs that can be easily recognized, but in order to be acceptable for Nobel, they also need to be easily reproduced, because that will facilitate communication. Also, when making combinations of signs, one has to make some restriction in order to maintain clarity, so we decided to have no more than three signs combined into single word. Finally, the last requirement, that of complementarities, needs some explanation. Besides having signs that one can easily recognize and easily draw, one needs some structure to be embedded into composition of signs that facilitates one to remember and learn signs easily. We refer to this structure as complementary or, broadly speaking, associational, and what it implies is that words and objects that are related should have related signs. Thus, for example, pairs of words like man-woman, cat-dog, coffee-tea, good-bad, love-hate, etc., should have signs that are in some opposition, while words like smoke-flame-fire, tree-wood-forest, water-sea-ocean, good-better-best should have signs that are in competition. With this in mind when one sees and learns the basic signs, the meaning of many combinations of signs can be in advance anticipated. This helps one to learn Nobel rather fast; not months, not weeks, perhaps not even days, but a couple of hours may suffice that one may learn hundreds and hundreds of words. In this respect, Nobel may be unique among languages written, spoken of,

Download or read book METROPOLIS written by John Martoni and published by John Martoni. This book was released on 2022-03-05 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metropolis is an award-winning K-12 project-based ("STEAM") curriculum used by teachers, museum educators, non-profits, architects, urban planners, government agencies and other adults interested in engaging children in community improvement projects, city planning and architecture. The common-core aligned curriculum was developed by John Martoni, an urban planner and elementary school teacher in Southern California. Students are presented with a series of design challenges that take them step-by-step through the process of designing their very own eco-friendly city of the future (while learning about planning issues such as climate change, sustainability and sprawl). Students then apply their new urban design skills to research problems in their real-life community and to propose solutions to local leaders. Metropolis offers students an opportunity to use a creative design process to express their heritage, interests, and ideas while doing this fun, hands-on design project. It is a standards-based, interdisciplinary unit of study that can be easily adapted for students in upper elementary grades, middle school and high school. Language arts, mathematics, health, art, science, and social studies are embedded throughout the curriculum. The new 2022 version has been updated with new activities and graphics. It also includes brand new bonus chapters: -"Planning for Pandemics" (a fascinating look at how urban design has been affected by pandemics throughout human history--including Covid 19). -"Career Corner" (spotlighting the contributions and achievements of people of color and women in the design and building professions) 21st CENTURY SKILLS EMPHASIZED IN METROPOLIS: -Collaboration -Communication -Empathy -Adaptability -Critical Thinking -Creativity -Multiculturalism PEDAGOGIES EMBEDDED IN METROPOLIS: -Project-Based Learning -Design Thinking / Design-Based Learning -STEAM Education (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics) -Integrated Thematic Instruction -Place-Based Learning
