Download or read book 200 Active Learning Strategies and Projects for Engaging Students Multiple Intelligences written by James Bellanca and published by Corwin Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if Libyan terrorists obtained $US36 billion worth of street ready heroin? White Monsoon is a codename for a plot by six Libyan terrorists to flood the United States with bargain-basement-priced heroin. This release intertwines two novels, subtitled, MORPHINE BASE set in March, 1992 and PURE HEROIN around Halloween of the same year. "Scott, I'm mad at you " the voice in Xenia, OH said. "What's the matter, Jim? What are you mad about?" "You sent me your book and I opened it, started reading and couldn't put it down. I read it straight through and hardly got any sleep in three or four days." Then he laughed. "No. You have really got something here. This is a wonderful story." James H. "Pee Wee" Martin, 101st Airborne - 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 3rd Battalion - G Company Morphine Base is an intriguing fast-paced collection of stories that weave together into an international thriller. One story line follows a group of Libyan terrorists with curious non-Muslim names as they weed out a Mossad informant in their midst, masquerade as members of the International Red Cross and transport five eighteen wheelers from Libya to Nimach (an acronym for Northern India Mounted Artillery & Cavalry Headquarters) a town of about 150,000 known for the highest opium production in India. In another story line, Scott captures the world of the opium trade from both the licit and illicit sides of the coin by focusing on one group of licensed opium farmers and their interactions with vicious drug traffickers as they try to bring their opium harvest to market once again in Nimach. High ranking Mossad agents come across the pond to ask the help of old friends at the CIA's training facility nicknamed "The Farm" in Virginia. The Mossad want help finding a missing agent who had infiltrated a dangerous terrorist group and almost discovered the terrorists' plot--code named White Monsoon. Pure Heroin is aptly titled because it is the central theme around which the entire tale is spun. Heroin causes the three year old daughter and infant son of an educational programmer of personal computers to be kidnapped and taken to a remote prison built in a molybdenum mine abandoned by the Russians following their brief occupation of Afghanistan. Heroin causes the death of the daughter and husband of a woman who helps the terrified father. Wonderful people, the father and the woman who helps him find themselves drawn to each other with ever growing yearnings, visceral and deep, as they try deperately to override their feelings and stay focused on finding out where the man's children have been taken. This PG-13 yarn about two American heroes delights all ages according to some wonderful feedback. One twelve year old Indian boy gave it to his grandparents who looked forward to the book more than television and read the book to each other. This seems to be a trend. We're hearing from numerous couples they've been reading to their spouses or to their families once or twice a week and it's helping to bring people back to the dinner table. We've had people receive the book as a gift who were sad at first that they didn't get something by one of their favorite authors. One taxi driver from Oklahoma City wrote, "I almost took the book to Barnes & Noble to exchange it. I'm so glad I didn't. I read it while waiting in taxi stands and had it sitting in my passenger seat. I ended up giving it to a site locator for the movie industry who was looking for farms for another twister movie and told the guy what a great low budget movie it would make."

Download or read book Professional Development for Cooperative Learning written by Celeste M. Brody and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1998-07-10 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cooperative/collaborative learning procedures increasingly attract great attention in school and higher education settings. This book has two main purposes: first, to enable educators to make informed decisions and choices about selecting, implementing, and evaluating cooperative learning models with respect for the differences and diversity of goals among professionals in school communities, and second, to consider the goals of teachers' professional development in the context of organizational reforms that foster systemic school change, such as the development of learning communities. The authors encourage professional development that goes beyond inservice workshops to include multi-year development and support for teachers. They advocate that schools be administered under collaborative principles so teachers can "live the experience" that they are trying to create in their own classrooms. Professional Development for Cooperative Learning describes what works for professional development in cooperative learning and how difficult it is to bring about lasting change in school settings. Brody and Davidson focus the dialogue on the nature of professional development linked to systemic changes and the successes, failures, and challenges encountered in the process.

Book excerpt: This volume captures contemporary global developments in cooperative learning (CL) across varied educational contexts, levels, and disciplines. Cooperative learning is widely recognized as a pedagogical practice that promotes socialization and learning among students, from kindergarten to tertiary education and across different subject domains. With chapters from contributors throughout the Global North and South, this comprehensive volume offers a wide-ranging perspective and addresses a range of cooperative learning pedagogies including relational, online, and peer learning, STAD, the Jigsaw model, and dialogic talk. The chapters draw on novel empirical research and theory to highlight best practices in cooperative learning, whilst also considering the challenges, limitations, and factors which drive or inhibit learner engagement and success. Consistent attention is given to the pivotal role of the educator in implementing cooperative learning to maximum benefit to enhance students’ affective, social, cognitive, and metacognitive learning. Thus, this book will appeal to scholars and researchers across a variety of subjects; and will provide an additional benefit to in-service and pre-service educators who already practice cooperative learning in their classrooms, as well as those who are interested in implementing the model.
