Rice, Ph.D. This book was released on 2021-09-27 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Book editions 1 & 2 combined) This tome will evaluate the most relevant and substantial of the allegations, and will do so in supplementary details; the tome does not substantiate guilt or innocence; withstanding judgment, and notwithstanding the unlegal opinion derived from it; Furthermore, this tome will not include insignificant individuals, not having a direct impact on the core substance, or, and, again, being inconsequential; overtly acknowledging all edicts to be alleged. We will explored the dimensions of our psyche related to truth; by reaching beyond the obvious, and by viewing things through the microscope exploring what might be possible, and impossible, and applying truth wherever possible, the depths of a multifaceted approach, regarding reason, thought, and truth, and how all of it might relate, and making use of the telescope to glance beyond the right now, and to consider where it is possible for the truth and reality to coexist in its totality, and not in-part; being detailed in our considerations and understanding; allowing the truth to evolve into more truths, and by grasping truths philosophies. If it’s true, and according to his supporters beliefs, It’s about RKelly’s catalog and its value; however, that premise fails in comparison to RKelly’s assertion that, ‘I’m fighting for my Life’, while others assert that things about RKelly being a pedophile; nevertheless, what comes first is the evaluation of the charges, because what is immediate are the charges he faces; while money may be a factor, on the surface, I can assess, that his money woes, begin long before these charges; but the accusation has swirled regarding underage activity, with a plethora of NDA’s; but could it be the result of being misunderstood, or perception. The tome also serves as a manuscript of the way we saw things playing out, writing a script to the saga, by capturing the components for a written script, or movie; the idea was to capture things before they transpired and predicting the outcome; through interviews, research, and virtual interactions of the main players. this is volume two, but this tome includes volume 1 for more concise play by play interactive addition.

Book Following The Truth   Perception v  Critical Thinking

Download or read book Following The Truth Perception v Critical Thinking written by Dr. Charles A. Rice, PhD and published by Dr. Charles A. Rice, Ph.D. This book was released on 2021-04-01 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This tome surrounds the philosophies of Truth v. Perception, it considers the dichotomy of Truth v. the totality of Truth; and it's complicated in the thinking; the book focuses on critical thinking and problem solving skills; Rkelly merely represents the basis of scenarios; and with that, the philosophies are applied, related to a different way of consider things. The tome is formal in nature; meaning, being certified, unlegal, but very much logical; encompassing plausible scenarios of relief; maintaining that the totality of Truth, which can evolve to more truths, offers the better remedy. Wherefore; the premise of, ‘Perception v. Critical Thinking’, is its truth; Therefore; it will not matter what RKelly is not on trial for; but what is germane, is what RKelly is indicted for; and all else is inconsequential; it doesn't matter who knew RKelly; and it has nothing to do with the overaged women on LifeTime that were not underage; it has nothing to do with acquaintances or adversaries; moreover, having to do with the allegations brought forth in the indictment; and onwards, the merits on which the allegations are founded and being criminal in nature; Now comes; the things that are to be considered; Whereby, the use of logic and critical thinking will be applied. This tome will evaluate the most relevant and substantial of the allegations, and will do so in supplementary details; the tome does not substantiate guilt or innocence; withstanding judgment, and notwithstanding the unlegal opinion derived from it; Furthermore, this tome will not include insignificant individuals, not having a direct impact on the core substance, or, and, again, being inconsequential; overtly acknowledging all edicts to be alleged. We will explored the dimensions of our psyche related to truth; by reaching beyond the obvious, and by viewing things through the microscope exploring what might be possible, and impossible, and applying truth wherever possible, the depths of a multifaceted approach, regarding reason, thought, and truth, and how all of it might relate, and making use of the telescope to glance beyond the right now, and to consider where it is possible for the truth and reality to coexist in its totality, and not in-part; being detailed in our considerations and understanding; allowing the truth to evolve into more truths, and by grasping truths philosophies. If it’s true, and according to his supporters beliefs, It’s about RKelly’s catalog and its value; however, that premise fails in comparison to RKelly’s assertion that, ‘I’m fighting for my Life’, while others assert that things about RKelly being a pedophile; nevertheless, what comes first is the evaluation of the charges, because what is immediate are the charges he faces; while money may be a factor, on the surface, I can assess, that his money woes, begin long before these charges; but the accusation has swirled regarding underage activity, with a plethora of NDA’s; but could it be the result of being misunderstood, or perception.

Book Schooling Hip Hop

Download or read book Schooling Hip Hop written by Marc Lamont Hill and published by Teachers College Press. This book was released on 2015-04-26 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together veteran and emerging scholars from a variety of fields to chart new territory for hip-hop based education. Looking beyond rap music and the English language arts classroom, innovative chapters unpack the theory and practice of hip-hop based education in science, social studies, college composition, teacher education, and other fields. Authors consider not only the curricular aspects of hip-hop but also how its deeper aesthetics such as improvisational freestyling and competitive battling can shape teaching and learning in both secondary and higher education classrooms. Schooling Hip-Hop will spark new and creative uses of hip-hop culture in a variety of educational settings. Contributors: Jacqueline Celemencki, Christopher Emdin, H. Bernard Hall, Decoteau J. Irby, Bronwen Low, Derek Pardue, James Braxton Peterson, David Stovall, Eloise Tan, and Joycelyn A. Wilson “Hip hop has come of age on the broader social and cultural scene. However, it is still in its infancy in the academy and school classrooms. Hill and Petchauer have assembled a powerful group of scholars who provide elegantly theoretical and practically significant ways to consider hip hop as an important pedagogical strategy. This volume is a wonderful reminder that ‘Stakes is high!’” —Gloria Ladson-Billings, Kellner Family Chair in Urban Education, University of Wisconsin–Madison “This book is a bold, ambitious attempt to chart new intellectual, theoretical, and pedagogical directions for Hip-Hop Based Education. Hill and Petchauer are to be commended for pushing the envelope and stepping up to the challenge of taking HHBE to the next level.” —Geneva Smitherman, University Distinguished Professor Emerita, English and African American and African Studies, Michigan State University

Book Digital Media  Youth  and Credibility

Download or read book Digital Media Youth and Credibility written by Miriam J. Metzger and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The difficulties in determining the quality of information on the Internet--in particular, the implications of wide access and questionable credibility for youth and learning. Today we have access to an almost inconceivably vast amount of information, from sources that are increasingly portable, accessible, and interactive. The Internet and the explosion of digital media content have made more information available from more sources to more people than at any other time in human history. This brings an infinite number of opportunities for learning, social connection, and entertainment. But at the same time, the origin of information, its quality, and its veracity are often difficult to assess. This volume addresses the issue of credibility--the objective and subjective components that make information believable--in the contemporary media environment. The contributors look particularly at youth audiences and experiences, considering the implications of wide access and the questionable credibility of information for youth and learning. They discuss such topics as the credibility of health information online, how to teach credibility assessment, and public policy solutions. Much research has been done on credibility and new media, but little of it focuses on users younger than college students. Digital Media, Youth, and Credibility fills this gap in the literature.

Book The Politics of Evidence

Download or read book The Politics of Evidence written by Justin Parkhurst and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Open Access version of this book, available at http://www.tandfebooks.com/, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 3.0 license. There has been an enormous increase in interest in the use of evidence for public policymaking, but the vast majority of work on the subject has failed to engage with the political nature of decision making and how this influences the ways in which evidence will be used (or misused) within political areas. This book provides new insights into the nature of political bias with regards to evidence and critically considers what an ‘improved’ use of evidence would look like from a policymaking perspective. Part I describes the great potential for evidence to help achieve social goals, as well as the challenges raised by the political nature of policymaking. It explores the concern of evidence advocates that political interests drive the misuse or manipulation of evidence, as well as counter-concerns of critical policy scholars about how appeals to ‘evidence-based policy’ can depoliticise political debates. Both concerns reflect forms of bias – the first representing technical bias, whereby evidence use violates principles of scientific best practice, and the second representing issue bias in how appeals to evidence can shift political debates to particular questions or marginalise policy-relevant social concerns. Part II then draws on the fields of policy studies and cognitive psychology to understand the origins and mechanisms of both forms of bias in relation to political interests and values. It illustrates how such biases are not only common, but can be much more predictable once we recognise their origins and manifestations in policy arenas. Finally, Part III discusses ways to move forward for those seeking to improve the use of evidence in public policymaking. It explores what constitutes ‘good evidence for policy’, as well as the ‘good use of evidence’ within policy processes, and considers how to build evidence-advisory institutions that embed key principles of both scientific good practice and democratic representation. Taken as a whole, the approach promoted is termed the ‘good governance of evidence’ – a concept that represents the use of rigorous, systematic and technically valid pieces of evidence within decision-making processes that are representative of, and accountable to, populations served.

  • ISBN : 1783606819
  • Pages : 329 pages

Download or read book Assata written by Assata Shakur and published by Zed Books Ltd.. This book was released on 2016-02-15 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Deftly written...a spellbinding tale.' The New York Times In 2013 Assata Shakur, founding member of the Black Liberation Army, former Black Panther and godmother of Tupac Shakur, became the first ever woman to make the FBI's most wanted terrorist list. Assata Shakur's trial and conviction for the murder of a white state trooper in the spring of 1973 divided America. Her case quickly became emblematic of race relations and police brutality in the USA. While Assata's detractors continue to label her a ruthless killer, her defenders cite her as the victim of a systematic, racist campaign to criminalize and suppress black nationalist organizations. This intensely personal and political autobiography reveals a sensitive and gifted woman. With wit and candour Assata recounts the formative experiences that led her to embrace a life of activism. With pained awareness she portrays the strengths, weaknesses and eventual demise of black and white revolutionary groups at the hands of the state. A major contribution to the history of black liberation, destined to take its place alongside The Autobiography of Malcolm X and the works of Maya Angelou.

Download or read book Cultural Formulation written by Juan E. Mezzich and published by Jason Aronson. This book was released on 2008 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The publication of the Cultural Formulation Outline in the DSM-IV represented a significant event in the history of standard diagnostic systems. It was the first systematic attempt at placing cultural and contextual factors as an integral component of the diagnostic process. The year was 1994 and its coming was ripe since the multicultural explosion due to migration, refugees, and globalization on the ethnic composition of the U.S. population made it compelling to strive for culturally attuned psychiatric care. Understanding the limitations of a dry symptomatological approach in helping clinicians grasp the intricacies of the experience, presentation, and course of mental illness, the NIMH Group on Culture and Diagnosis proposed to appraise, in close collaboration with the patient, the cultural framework of the patient's identity, illness experience, contextual factors, and clinician-patient relationship, and to narrate this along the lines of five major domains. By articulating the patient's experience and the standard symptomatological description of a case, the clinician may be better able to arrive at a more useful understanding of the case for clinical care purposes. Furthermore, attending to the context of the illness and the person of the patient may additionally enhance understanding of the case and enrich the database from which effective treatment can be planned. This reader is a rich collection of chapters relevant to the DSM-IV Cultural Formulation that covers the Cultural Formulation's historical and conceptual background, development, and characteristics. In addition, the reader discusses the prospects of the Cultural Formulation and provides clinical case illustrations of its utility in diagnosis and treatment of mental disorders. Book jacket.

Book Human Factors Considerations of Undergrounds in Insurgencies

Download or read book Human Factors Considerations of Undergrounds in Insurgencies written by Us Army Special Operations Command and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-08-31 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the preface: "The 1966 'Human Factors' edition focused on the contemporary threat of Maoist insurgencies, particularly in Southeast Asia, and also drew extensively on World War II resistance movements in Europe. Much of this information is still relevant and has been retained and integrated. In the post-Cold War world, the most important insurgencies tend to be ethnic and religious. Long-simmering conflicts, sometimes with roots in colonial policies, have become prominent; examples include the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) in Sri Lanka, Euskadi Ta Askatasuna (Basque Homeland and Freedom or ETA) in Spain, the Hutu-Tutsi genocides, the Ushtia �lirimtare e Kosov�s (Kosovo Liberation Army, or KLA), and the Provisional Irish Republican Army (PIRA). Battle lines in these conflicts are often drawn along ethnic lines, even when land or politics are the immediate issues in contention. The other important new category is extremist religious movements, most prominently Islamic groups, including regional insurgent movements like Hizbollah and Harakat al-Muqawamah al'Isla�miyyah (Islamic Resistance Movement, or HAMAS) and global movements like Al Qaeda. These present a different profile of ideology, organizational forms, and psychology than either Cold War Maoists or post-colonial ethnic insurgencies (although the Palestinian cause could be considered a post-colonial issue). Globalization has also changed underground operations in numerous ways. Insurgencies, enabled by low-cost transportation, Internet based communications, and other information technologies, can more easily recruit, communicate, and operate across borders. It is correspondingly much more difficult to contain an insurgency in a region. Global media has led to development of new tactics, in particular new types of terrorism, designed to capture worldwide attention. Compared with what was available in the 1960s, there are orders of magnitude more academic research available relevant to this study's topics. We were able to draw on more recent work in psychology, political science, economics, sociology, organizational studies, and communications studies. Readers of this edition will, over the course of eleven chapters, get a wide exposure to basic concepts from a number of disciplines".

Book News Literacy and Democracy

Download or read book News Literacy and Democracy written by Seth Ashley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-10-14 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: News Literacy and Democracy invites readers to go beyond surface-level fact checking and to examine the structures, institutions, practices, and routines that comprise news media systems. This introductory text underscores the importance of news literacy to democratic life and advances an argument that critical contexts regarding news media structures and institutions should be central to news literacy education. Under the larger umbrella of media literacy, a critical approach to news literacy seeks to examine the mediated construction of the social world and the processes and influences that allow some news messages to spread while others get left out. Drawing on research from a range of disciplines, including media studies, political economy, and social psychology, this book aims to inform and empower the citizens who rely on news media so they may more fully participate in democratic and civic life. The book is an essential read for undergraduate students of journalism and news literacy and will be of interest to scholars teaching and studying media literacy, political economy, media sociology, and political psychology.
