Download or read book An Educational Calamity written by Uche Amaechi and published by . This book was released on 2021-03-27 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Covid-19 pandemic caused major disruptions to education around the world. Since the World Health Organization declared a pandemic on March 11, 2020, most students on the planet were affected by the interruption of in-person schooling. To mitigate the educational loss such interruption would cause, education authorities the world over created a variety of alternative mechanisms of education delivery. They did so quickly and with insufficient knowledge about what would work well, for which children, and for what aspects of the schooling experience.Having to create such alternative arrangements in short order was the ultimate adaptive leadership challenge, one for which no playbook existed, one for which solutions would have to be invented, rather than drawn from existing technical knowledge. The nature of the challenge differed across the world and regions, and it differed also within countries as a function of the differential public health and economic impact of the pandemic on communities, and of variations in institutional and financial resources available to redress such impact, including availability of digital infrastructure and previous knowledge and experience of teachers and students with digi-pedagogies and other resources to create alternative education delivery systems.Sustaining educational opportunities amidst these challenges created by the pandemic was an example of adaptive education response not to a unique unexpected challenge but to one in a larger class of problems, just one of the many adaptive conundrums facing communities and societies. Beyond the challenges resulting from the pandemic, other complications of that sort predating the pandemic included those resulting from poverty, inequality, social inclusion, governance, climate change, among others. In some ways, the pandemic served as an accelerant for some of those, augmenting their impact or underscoring the urgency of addressing them. Adaptive puzzles of this sort, including pandemics, are likely to continue to impact education systems in the foreseeable future. This makes it necessary to strengthen the capacity of education systems to respond to them.Reimagining education systems so they are resilient in the face of adaptive challenges is an opportunity to mobilize new talent and institutional resources. Partnerships between school systems and universities can contribute to those reimagined and more resilient systems, they can enhance the institutional capacity of education systems to devise solutions and to implement them. Such partnerships are also an opportunity for universities to be more deliberate in integrating their three core functions of research, teaching and outreach in service of addressing significant social challenges in a context in rapid flux.In this book we present the results of one approach to produce the integration between research, teaching and outreach just described, resulting from engaging graduate students in collaborations with school systems for the purpose of helping identify ways to sustain educational opportunity during the disruption caused by the pandemic. This activity engaged our students in research and analysis, contributing to their education, and it engaged them in service to society. The book examines what happened to educational opportunity during the Covid-19 pandemic in Bangladesh, Belize, the municipality of Santa Ana in Costa Rica, Guatemala, Kenya, in the States of Sinaloa and Quintana Roo in Mexico, South Africa, United Arab Emirates, and in the United States in Richardson Independent School District in Texas. It offers an systematic analysis of policy options to sustain educational opportunity during the pandemic.

Download or read book Mathematics Teacher Education in the Andean Region and Paraguay written by Yuriko Yamamoto Baldin and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-04 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Open Access book is an excellent synthesis of the initial and continuing preparation for Mathematics Teaching in Bolivia, Ecuador, Paraguay and Peru, from which comparative analyses can be made that show similarities and differences, and highlight various perspectives. In February 2016, the 5th Capacity and Networking Project (CANP) workshop of the International Commission on Mathematical Instruction (ICMI) was held in Lima, Peru. The coordination of this two-week workshop was undertaken by an international scientific committee (IPC), with equal participation by mathematicians and mathematics educators from the region and from the international ICMI and IMU community. The goal of CANP5 was to improve the quality of mathematics education in the region, which led to the main theme of the scientific program “Initial and Continued Teacher Education”. Country Reports on the main theme of teacher education systems for each country in this region were presented and discussed to detect common issues that might be improved through a collaborative network. One of the most important results of this event was the creation of a Mathematics Education Network, namely the Comunidad de Educación Matemática de America del Sur – CEMAS. This book brings to the international Educational Community an important collection of experiences and ideas in the Mathematics Education of four Latin-American countries in the developing Andean region and Paraguay. The dissemination of these results can promote the search for international collaborative actions in a wider scale.

A cannon. A strap. A piece. A biscuit. A burner. A heater. A chopper. A gat. A hammer A tool for RULE Or, you can call it a gun. That’s what fifteen-year-old Will has shoved in the back waistband of his jeans. See, his brother Shawn was just murdered. And Will knows the rules. No crying. No snitching. Revenge. That’s where Will’s now heading, with that gun shoved in the back waistband of his jeans, the gun that was his brother’s gun. He gets on the elevator, seventh floor, stoked. He knows who he’s after. Or does he? As the elevator stops on the sixth floor, on comes Buck. Buck, Will finds out, is who gave Shawn the gun before Will took the gun. Buck tells Will to check that the gun is even loaded. And that’s when Will sees that one bullet is missing. And the only one who could have fired Shawn’s gun was Shawn. Huh. Will didn’t know that Shawn had ever actually USED his gun. Bigger huh. BUCK IS DEAD. But Buck’s in the elevator? Just as Will’s trying to think this through, the door to the next floor opens. A teenage girl gets on, waves away the smoke from Dead Buck’s cigarette. Will doesn’t know her, but she knew him. Knew. When they were eight. And stray bullets had cut through the playground, and Will had tried to cover her, but she was hit anyway, and so what she wants to know, on that fifth floor elevator stop, is, what if Will, Will with the gun shoved in the back waistband of his jeans, MISSES. And so it goes, the whole long way down, as the elevator stops on each floor, and at each stop someone connected to his brother gets on to give Will a piece to a bigger story than the one he thinks he knows. A story that might never know an END…if Will gets off that elevator. Told in short, fierce staccato narrative verse, Long Way Down is a fast and furious, dazzlingly brilliant look at teenage gun violence, as could only be told by Jason Reynolds.

Download or read book Genesis of the Space Race the Inner Earth and the Extra Terrestrials written by John Leith and published by Timestream Pictures. This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John B. Leith was born in 1920 with a photographic mind. He graduated from high school in 1937 and took spiritual training in Lhasa, Tibet for nine months before joining the Office of Strategic Services. During the last two years of WW II he led a six-man special-forces team out of London specializing in breaking prisoners out of German jails in France, Germany, and Poland. Though he became the most highly decorated soldier of any war, he was not allowed to acknowledge he had any combat service until after his death. He studied literature at Oxford while describing his 12 most exciting of 62 missions behind German lines. As liaison officer between General Patton and Gen Von Rundstedt he learned how selected people were fleeing Germany. These missions are described in The Man with the Golden Sword. Leith studied in Canada and spent 25 years earning a living as a journalist. In 1975, after demonstrating that he could keep his OSS experiences hidden from the public for 30 years, the CIA asked Leith to team up with another wartime OSS officer, Father John in WW II, and interview people associated with the development of "round-wing planes," both for our allies and for Germany. Neither group was allowed to use that technology for war, because both were assisted by wiser beings from off this planet. Genesis for The Space Race: The Inner Earth and the Extraterrestrials was dedicated to "an unsung hero, Jonathan E. Caldwell, inventor of this civilization's first spacecraft." He used several names for security. Read about him on Wikipedia. Like most CIA-approved releases, this 376-page book was required to have disinformation published with it and shown in a map of inner-Earth civilizations provided by an Atlantean cartographer. A 4-page Preamble helps the reader understand the disinformation and it's need. This book falsely indicates Hitler went with other officers and scientists to New Berlin, accessed from Antarctica. Pope Pius XII trained him to convert pagans in the jungles of Ecuador. The map falsely shows 125-mile-diameter holes at each poll required by the CIA to keep wealthy people from spending their fortunes in attempts to access the Inner Earth to acquire advanced technologies. Leith's term "Inner Earth" was sometimes changed to "Hollow Earth" and the story modified to match. Also, this book says that Hitler's son came to his father's funeral in Zaragoza, Spain in 1974, though the real funeral to which his son, born to Eva Braun in 1945, came was in Cuenca, Ecuador in 1978. It has three sections: Space Race, The Inner World of Extra Terrestrials, and Primer For a New Age of Space. Chapter XVII is titled Intrusion of Alien Beings into World Societies and Interviews with Leading Extra Terrestrials. The Epilogue describes how the 54-12 committee developed strategy for USA presidents since Eisenhower to maintain air supremacy into the 1980s and beyond. It describes foreign awards presented to Lt. General Caldwell after he retired in 1967, including a singular Congressional Medal presented by Eisenhower. The Appendix is titled Social, Political, Economic and Religious life in Inner Earth. Notes and Sources follow with excellent research on many controversial issues that came up during the interviews. Following are pictures of construction of New Berlin and a completed housing block with many German soldiers lined up for inspection. A 57-item bibliography from Occult and the Third Reich by Jean-Michel Angelbert to The Bible and Future Events by Leon Wood is listed. Between are: The Secret Doctrine by Blavatsky; UFO's and Interplanetary Visitors by Fowler; Our Haunted Planet by Keel; Aliens from Space by Keyhoe; The Great White Brotherhood by Prophet; and Secret of the Ages - UFOs from Inside the Earth by Trench. Following Leith's writing are addendums by the Owner, Robyn Andrews, who worked with Leith at conferences, and by MUFON Investigator Michael Forte who investigated Leith's research specialist, Frank Hudson.
