Dare to Love: 1 Corinthians 13
by Rose PublishingThe "Love Chapter" in the Bible is one of the most precious passages of all time. The kind of love portrayed in 1 Corinthians is true love, strong and determined--and it is not for the faint of heart. In this beautiful full-color 14-page Dare To Love booklet, you will read the full text of this chapter and understand the teachings and insights in depth. These days, love is a risky adventure requiring not only strength and character, but also a vulnerable, gritty commitment. Paul's famous passage on love, 1 Corinthians 13, is often quoted during weddings, but it has a far greater application to today's world. Dare to Love unpacks this meaty chapter without sentimentalism, examining and applying the hard work of loving another human being, a spouse, child, friend, or neighbor. Discusses the differences in the four kinds of love: Agape (unconditional, God-like), Philia (friendship), Eros (pleasure, sexuality), and Storge (gift-love between parents and children). 1 Corinthians 13 includes principles that bring healing and restoration to marriages and families today. This pamphlet is perfect for people who are engaged, married, or caretakers for the sick or elderly. It also goes well with the movie "Fireproof," the book Love Dare and other marriage enrichment books.

Daring to Educate: The Legacy of the Early Spelman College Presidents
by Yolanda L. Watson Sheila T. GregoryWhile President Emerita Johnnetta B. Cole is credited with propelling Spelman College (the oldest historically Black womens’ college) to national prominence, little is generally known about the strong academic foundation and legacy she inherited. Contrary to popular belief, the first four presidents of Spelman (including its two co-founders) were White women who led the early development of the College, armed with the belief that former slaves and free Black women should and could receive a college-level education. This book presents the history of Spelman’s foundation through the tenure of its fourth president, Florence M. Read, which ended in 1953. This compelling story is brought up to date by the contributions of Spelman’s current president, Beverly Daniel Tatum, and by Johnnetta B. Cole.The book chronicles how the vision each of these women presidents, and their response to changing social forces, both profoundly shaped Spelman’s curriculum and influenced the lives and minds of thousands of young Black women. The authors trace the evolution of Spelman from its beginning–when the founders, aware of the limited occupations open to its graduates, strove to uplift the Black race by providing an academic education to disenfranchised Black women while also providing training for available careers--to the fifties when the college became an exemplar of liberal arts education in the South.This book fills a void in the history of Black women in higher education. It will appeal to a wide readership interested in women’s studies, Black history and the history of higher education in general.
Dark Academe: Capitalism, Theory, and the Death Drive in Higher Education (Palgrave Studies on Global Policy and Critical Futures in Education)
by Jeffrey R. Di LeoThis book argues that a critical understanding of dark academe is vital to the futures of democracy and education. Drawing upon contemporary literary and cultural theory, particularly, affect theory, queer epistemology, and critical race theory as well as critiques of capitalism and accounts of the death drive, it builds a case for identifying dark academe as anything that prohibits the pursuit of democratic education and critical citizenship. It also argues that dark times require a reassessment of the ways theory and knowledge are approached in the humanities. This is necessary if the aim is to truly understand the darkness at the heart of the higher education today. Dark academe works to negate education and learning by continuously telling us that the quest for knowledge is empty, and the pursuit of critique is blind. In this educational darkness, the death drive of neoliberal academe becomes a force that works against intellectual transformation and the deepening of critical sights.

Dark Mirrors: Azazel and Satanael in Early Jewish Demonology
by Andrei A. OrlovDark Mirrors is a wide-ranging study of two central figures in early Jewish demonology—the fallen angels Azazel and Satanael. Andrei A. Orlov explores the mediating role of these paradigmatic celestial rebels in the development of Jewish demonological traditions from Second Temple apocalypticism to later Jewish mysticism, such as that of the Hekhalot and Shi'ur Qomah materials. Throughout, Orlov makes use of Jewish pseudepigraphical materials in Slavonic that are not widely known.Orlov traces the origins of Azazel and Satanael to different and competing mythologies of evil, one to the Fall in the Garden of Eden, the other to the revolt of angels in the antediluvian period. Although Azazel and Satanael are initially representatives of rival etiologies of corruption, in later Jewish and Christian demonological lore each is able to enter the other's stories in new conceptual capacities. Dark Mirrors also examines the symmetrical patterns of early Jewish demonology that are often manifested in these fallen angels' imitation of the attributes of various heavenly beings, including principal angels and even God himself.
Dark Money and the Politics of School Privatization
by Maurice T. CunninghamThis book goes deep behind the scenes of school privatization campaigns to expose the complex networks of funding that sustain these efforts - often hidden from the view of the public. Using the example of a 2016 Massachusetts charter school referendum, Cunningham shows how wealthy individuals support charter school expansion through so-called “social welfare” organizations, thereby obscuring the true sources of funding while influencing major public policy votes. With vast wealth and a political agenda, foundations have helped to reshape the reform landscape in urban education.
Dark Pedagogy: Education, Horror and the Anthropocene (Palgrave Studies in Education and the Environment)
by Jonas Andreasen Lysgaard Stefan Bengtsson Martin Hauberg-Lund LaugesenDark pedagogy explores how different perspectives can be incorporated into a darker understanding of environmental and sustainability education. Drawing on the work of the classic horror author H.P. Lovecraft and new materialist insights of speculative realism, the authors link Lovecraft’s ‘tales of the horrible’ to the current spectres of environmental degradation, climate change, and pollution. In doing so, they draw parallels between how humans have always related to the ‘horrible’ things that are scaled beyond our understanding and how education can respond to an era of climate catastrophe in the age of the Anthropocene. A new and darker understanding of environmental and sustainability education is thus developed: using the tripartite reaction pattern of denial, insanity and death to frame the narrative, the book subsequently examines the specific challenges of potentials of developing education and pedagogy for an age of mass extinction. This unflinching book will appeal to students and scholars of dark pedagogies as well as those interested in environment and sustainability education.

Darstellungsvernetzung bei bedingten Wahrscheinlichkeiten: Entwicklungsforschung mit Fokus auf Praktiken von Lehrkräften (Dortmunder Beiträge zur Entwicklung und Erforschung des Mathematikunterrichts #55)
by Monika PostBedingte Wahrscheinlichkeiten stellen sowohl Jugendliche als auch Erwachsene vor Herausforderungen, unter anderem beim Verständnis des Konzepts und beim Dekodieren von Aussagen zu Wahrscheinlichkeiten. In diesem Buch entwickelt und untersucht die Autorin Monika Post in einer Entwicklungsforschungsstudie verstehens- und sprachförderliche Unterrichtsansätze zur Förderung konzeptuellen Verständnisses zu bedingten Wahrscheinlichkeiten und nutzt hierzu das Designprinzip der Darstellungsvernetzung. Durch Verschränkung der semiotischen und epistemischen Perspektive betrachtet sie das Designprinzip der Darstellungsvernetzung im Zusammenhang mit relevanten Verstehenselementen zu bedingten Wahrscheinlichkeiten in seinen Wirkungen und Gelingensbedingungen. Aufgrund der Relevanz des Handelns von Lehrkräften für Lerngelegenheiten wird der Fokus über die Untersuchung von Lernprozessen hinaus auf Lehrprozesse gesetzt. Neben gemeinsamen Lernwegen einer Klassengemeinschaft rekonstruiert und untersucht die Autorin daher unterrichtliche Praktiken von Lehrkräften zur Etablierung von Darstellungsverknüpfung.

Darwin and Evolution for Kids: His Life and Ideas with 21 Activities (For Kids series)
by Kristan LawsonDarwin and Evolution for Kids traces the transformation of a privileged and somewhat scatterbrained youth into the great thinker who proposed the revolutionary theory of evolution. Through 21 hands-on activities, young scientists learn about Darwin's life and work and assess current evidence of evolution. Activities include going on a botanical treasure hunt, keeping field notes as a backyard naturalist, and tying knots for ship sails like those on the HMS Beagle. Children also learn how fossils are created, trace genetic traits through their family trees, and discover if acquired traits are passed along to future generations. By encouraging children, parents, and teachers to define the differences between theories and beliefs, facts and opinions, Darwin and Evolution for Kids does not shy away from a theory that continues to spark heated public debate more than a century after it was first proposed.
Darwin and the Emergence of Evolutionary Theories of Mind and Behavior (Science And Its Conceptual Foundations Ser.)
by Robert J. RichardsWith insight and wit, Robert J. Richards focuses on the development of evolutionary theories of mind and behavior from their first distinct appearance in the eighteenth century to their controversial state today. Particularly important in the nineteenth century were Charles Darwin's ideas about instinct, reason, and morality, which Richards considers against the background of Darwin's personality, training, scientific and cultural concerns, and intellectual community. Many critics have argued that the Darwinian revolution stripped nature of moral purpose and ethically neutered the human animal. Richards contends, however, that Darwin, Herbert Spencer, and their disciples attempted to reanimate moral life, believing that the evolutionary process gave heart to unselfish, altruistic behavior. "Richards's book is now the obvious introduction to the history of ideas about mind and behavior in the nineteenth century."—Mark Ridley, Times Literary Supplement "Not since the publication of Michael Ghiselin's The Triumph of the Darwinian Method has there been such an ambitious, challenging, and methodologically self-conscious interpretation of the rise and development and evolutionary theories and Darwin's role therein."—John C. Greene, Science "His book . . . triumphantly achieves the goal of all great scholarship: it not only informs us, but shows us why becoming thus informed is essential to understanding our own issues and projects."—Daniel C. Dennett, Philosophy of Science
