Download or read book Testing Testing written by F. Allan Hanson and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about how our addiction to testing influences both society and ourselves as socially defined persons. The analysis focuses on tests of people, particularly tests in schools, intelligence tests, vocational interest tests, lie detection, integrity tests, and drug tests. Diagnostic psychiatric tests and medical tests are included only tangentially. A good deal of the descriptive material will be familiar to readers from their personal experience as takers and/or givers of tests. But testing, as with much of ordinary life, has implications that we seldom pause to ponder and often do not even notice. My aim is to uncover in the everyday operation of testing a series of well-concealed and mostly unintended consequences that exercise far deeper and more pervasive influence in social life than is commonly recognized.

Download or read book All That I Am with Thoughts and Dreams written by Tanya Lynn Walker and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-05-21 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In understanding who I am and the journey it took to get me from one point in my life to another, I have written this book of poetry as the link to a creative process of true and honest emotions. I am the force behind my own energy and fate. Through purpose and passion it is with joy and happiness I share my unshakeable truths. My world revolves around interpretations of rhythm and rhyme. While some may view these poems as thought-provoking, they are merely words of beauty and power that surround me in my space and time. The passion and light reflected in this book are responses to inspirations, tragedies, love, and faith, a way that helps me to connect with the modern reader. They are words that I have spoken and thought of in my mind and heart. Poetry is love in any language and because I am in love with life, I have written these love songs to those that have achieved something greater than the power of words. Poetry is wisdom and the humility that comes from wisdom. All the knowledge that I have gained from wisdom comes from heaven. I am but a lonely dreamer.

Book 1: Good to Go When_ Georgie B. Goode decides to take to the road in a vintage gypsy trailer, she finds herself up to her neck in trouble from the very first stop. That crystal ball her great-grandma Rosa insisted she take with her seems to be trying to tell her something…but what? Book 2: Georgie Be Good When Sarah West turns up at a vintage trailer rally to see if Georgie can help her falsely-accused husband, Georgie just can’t bring herself to say ‘no’. With the help of her crystal ball and her amateur team of investigators, she starts following the trail—and ends up entangled in a web of lies. Book 3: Good Riddance One of Georgie’s first customers at an RV park in Santa Monica is a teenage boy who seems more set on having her arrested rather than seeking her help. Georgie can sense that there’s more behind his football-jock muscles and acne scars than meets the eye, so she keeps digging - but as the plot thickens, she finds herself calling on her fledgling Crystal Ball Investigation Team for help. What they lack in experience, they make up for in ingenuity! Book 4: Up to No Good If ever there was a stark contrast to the fun of the retro scene with its rockabilly fun and gorgeous little homes on wheels, it would have to be preppers, stockpiling food and waiting for the Apocalypse. It’s not a scene that Georgie has ever had much to do with, until her brother Jerry starts specializing in building Bug-Out vehicles and selling Get Out Of Dodge packs. Then Jerry disappears—and his fate is in the hands of a couple of gypsy fortune-tellers: his great-grandma Rosa and his sister Georgie. Book 5: In Good Hands Jaxx Saxby is widely known as “The TV Presenter from Hell”, so it’s a very reluctant Georgie that finds herself back in Elkhart to take part in a cable TV special. Jaxx, unfortunately, has decided that the mammoth Johnny B. Goode RV Empire is a perfect fit for her show. During a crystal ball reading recorded on camera, Georgie realizes that Jaxx is in grave danger —but where is that threat coming from?
