Download or read book American Sucker written by David Denby and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2005-04-07 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In early 2000 the bottom dropped out of the life of writer David Denby when his wife decided to leave him. Propelled to make some money quickly, and seized by the 'irrational exuberance' of the stock market, then approaching its peak, Denby enthusiastically joined the investment frenzy. Over the next few months he listened raptly to bullish stock analysts, dreamy hi-tech gurus and boastful heads of companies. He plunged into a season of mania and was swept forward on currents of hope, greed and hucksterism - with cataclysmic results. American Sucker is a mesmerising account of those years of madness. What begins as a money chase and an engagement with rampant capitalism soon becomes an encounter with such timeless issues as love, envy, true value - and life and death itself. This is a classic tale of the bubble related not by a market guru or an investment professional but by a witty, perceptive and eloquent outsider.

Download or read book Numeracy Across the Curriculum written by Merrilyn Goos and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-16 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Being numerate involves more than mastering basic mathematics. Numeracy connects the mathematics learned at school with out-of-school situations that require capabilities such as problem solving, critical judgment, and sense-making related to non-mathematical contexts. This book provides prospective and practising teachers with practical, research-based strategies for embedding numeracy across the primary and secondary school curriculum. Based on the authors' ten-year research program, the text explains what numeracy is and how numeracy has developed as an educational goal. It describes in detail the five dimensions of the authors' model: attention to real-life contexts; application of mathematical knowledge; use of physical, representational and digital tools; the promotion of positive dispositions towards the use of mathematics to solve problems encountered in day-to-day life; and a critical orientation to interpreting mathematical results and making evidence-based judgements. There is guidance on how to embed numeracy across all subjects within the curriculum, how to assess numeracy learning and how to deal with challenges and dilemmas including working with discipline boundaries and developing support resources. Featuring practical examples and case studies throughout, this book will build pre-service teacher confidence, demystify common misconceptions and grounds theory into practice in this vital area of student competency. 'The authors of this text are recognised authorities on numeracy. They have engaged heavily in numeracy research over many years and this text reflects the depth of their understanding and knowledge.' - Geoff Hilton, University of Queensland

Download or read book Dream Quartet written by June Ballantyne and published by . This book was released on 2021-09-24 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I received four stories over a few months from dreams that came over a period of days and stayed in my mind until I wrote them down, and others via my subconscious. When I was sitting in my car at the beach and events happened that forced me to go home and sit at my computer, the stories came at great speed into my mind, and I typed them out and read them afterwards. The first is about a young girl who has moved to London for her new job working for the government. She meets a young gypsy who wants to tell her something. They have a connection, and events lead her to join him in the summer at the gypsy encampment, where she learns of her true family. Her life changes from there. The second story, again from a dream over a period of days, is a love story. A girl has a past that gets in the way. The third story I love. I was sitting in my car at the beach and words ran across the book I was trying to read. I drove home, and before I arrived at my door, the words were pushing their way into my head. I sat and typed as fast as my fingers could keep me going, and then it ended. I did not know what I wrote, so I read the story: an amusing plan by six young adults to have a mystery holiday, while at the same time creating fun things for each of them to do while waiting for clues at their hotel, each one filled with mischief. It had an amusing twist for the ending. However, that night I had to get up and go to my computer and continue with a second part to the story. I really enjoyed it. The final story was very emotional for me. There was heartache, the mystery of where your soul goes after death, how life continues on a new path, and who is in charge.
