Qoheleth: The Ironic Wink (Studies on Personalities of the Old Testament)
by James L. Crenshaw“In this substantive yet accessible volume, Crenshaw brings to life the Bible’s strangest sage . . . A superb introduction for students and scholars alike.” —William P. Brown, William Marcellus McPheeters Professor of Old Testament at Columbia Theological SeminaryRarely does a biblical book evoke admiration from a Nobel laureate in literature, a newspaper columnist, a prize-winning poet, and a popular songwriter. Ecclesiastes has done that, and for good reason. Its author, who called himself Qoheleth, stared death in the face and judged all human endeavors to be futile. For Qoheleth observation is the only avenue to understanding; an arbitrarily wrathful and benevolent deity created and rules over the world; and death is unpredictable, absolute, and final. His message is simple: seize the moment, for death awaits.James L. Crenshaw begins by examining the essential mysteries of the book of Ecclesiastes: the speaker’s identity, his emphasis on hidden or contradictory truths, and his argument of the insubstantiality of most things and the ultimate futility of all efforts. Moving from the ancient to the contemporary, Crenshaw again analyzes Qoheleth’s observations about the human condition, this time testing if they can stand up against rational inquiry today. In exploring Qoheleth’s identity, the foundations of his outlook, and his recommendations, Crenshaw engages modern readers in a conversation about one of the most disagreed upon biblical books.In Qoheleth, Crenshaw draws on related literature from the ancient Near East and traces the impact of Qoheleth in both Christian and Jewish traditions, summarizing a lifetime of scholarship on the book of Ecclesiastes. While exploring Ecclesiastes and its enigmatic author, Crenshaw engages scholars and modern interpreters in genuine debate over the lasting relevance of Qoheleth’s teachings and the place of Ecclesiastes in the biblical canon.
Quadrilingual Education in Singapore
by Rita Elaine Silver Wendy D. Bokhorst-HengThis book explores Singapore's language education system. Unlike previous volumes, which discuss the bilingual requirement for learning, it focuses on Singapore's quadrilingual system, bringing together articles on each of the four languages - English, Mandarin, Malay and Tamil - as well as articles that examine more than one language. It highlights past successes, current concerns, and future directions for language education. The book focuses on classroom pedagogy in all four official languages, showcasing how languages are taught and learned in Singapore as a basis for better understanding the system "from the inside out. " The authors present empirical, classroom-based studies on language pedagogy in all four languages, as well as updated information on the current socio-political context and how it has influenced attempts at pedagogical innovation. Consideration is given to the dialectical relationship between policy and practice. The chapters also include discussions of pre-school-age learning, influences of language policy, home literacy practices, and commentaries by international language-in-education scholars. This approach also provides a basis for international comparison - especially for those who are interested in fostering English proficiency while maintaining one or more national languages. The volume is particularly important in light of the continuing international efforts to integrate English into national educational systems where it is not the dominant language.
Qual É Il Vostro Problema? NO, Veramente, Qual É Il Vostro Problema?
by Frank Daley Elena ZanettiQual è il Vostro problema?No, veramente, Qual É il Vostro problema?"La guida per identificare i problemi alla maniera di Sherlock Holmes.Avete mai cercato di risolvere un problema e semplicemente“non riuscivate”a farlo?Vi faceva impazzire? Non potevate dormire, eravate preoccupati, frustrati e ansiosi perché il problema doveva veramente essere risolto ma semplicemente non riuscivate a immaginarvi come gestirlo? A volte vi sentite Sherlock Holmes? Questo libro vi aiuta a tentare di smettere di risolvere un problema alla cieca quando non sapete neanche di che si tratta. Sherlock Homes non inizia a risolvere un caso senza sapere che crimine sia, identifica il vero crimine e poi procede a risolvere il caso (il problema). Non sapete risolvere un problema fino a quando non sapete di che si tratta, sembra ovvio, ma non lo è. Molte persone non riescono a risolvere i problemi perché non sanno che c'è una prima fase nel processo: identificare problema.Molte volte pensiamo o sentiamo di sapere quale sia un determinato problema ma quando cerchiamo di risolverlo, non riusciamo.Ci pensiamo continuamente ma il problema rimane.Siamo lenti o stupidi? No, è perché non riusciamo a risolvere un problema fino a che non lo definiamo. Sherlock trova il vero problema scartando tutte le idee errate (provenienti da lui o altri).Conosce quando la sua mente o emozioni gli stanno giocando brutti scherzi.Si conosce. Anche voi vi conoscerete meglio quando leggerete questo libro! Lo scrittore, Frank Daley, è il fondatore del Self-Knowledge College, un gruppo di auto-sviluppo che aiuta le persone a scoprire quali problemi stiano impedendo loro di avere successo a livello personale e professionale.Il libro si intitola "Chi siete e cosa state facendo qui?Il modo per conoscere se stessi e ottenere ciò che si vuole".

Qual é o seu problema? Ou melhor, qual é o seu verdadeiro problema?
by Frank Daley Danilo Aguilar MirandaVocê alguma vez já tentou resolver um problema e simplesmente não conseguiu? Isso não o deixa louco? Você perde o sono, fica preocupado, frustrado e ansioso porque quer resolver o problema mas não consegue ou não sabe como fazer para resolvê-lo? Alguma vez você teve vontade de pedir ajuda a Sherlock Holmes? "Qual é o seu problema? Ou melhor, qual é o seu verdadeiro problema?" ajudará você a deixar de tentar resolver problemas cegamente, sem antes saber do que se trata. Sherlock Homes não tentava desvendar nenhum mistério sem saber qual tinha sido o crime. Ele identificava o verdadeiro crime e só então tentava desvendar o caso (resolver o problema). Você não pode resolver um problema antes de saber do que se trata. Parece óbvio, mas não é. Muita gente não consegue resolver seus problemas porque não sabem que o primeiro passo para consegui-lo é: identificar o problema. Muitas vezes achamos que sabemos qual é o nosso problema, mas quando tentamos resolvê-lo, não funciona. Pensamos muito para encontrar uma solução, mas o problema persiste. Será que somos estúpidos? NÃO, é porque não podemos resolver nada antes de detectar qual é o problema. Sherlock desvendava o verdadeiro problema descartando ideias equivocadas (dele mesmo ou dos outros). Ele sentia quando sua mente ou suas emoções tentavam enganá-lo. Ele se conhecia. Você se conhecerá melhor depois de ler este livro. "Qual é o seu problema?" não ensina a resolver problemas (Sherlock Holmes, sim), mas ensina uma coisa que você deve saber antes de tentar solucionar qualquer situação: descobrir qual é o seu verdadeiro problema. O que você acha que é o seu problema pode não ser. Porque podemos identificar problemas de maneira incorreta. Por isso, não admira que não consigamos resolvê-los. É necessário aplicar uma nova estratégia para

Qualitative Educational Research in Action: Doing and Reflecting
by Keith Punch Tom O'DonoghueQualitative research is a key form of research in education; the findings of such projects frequently play a central role in shaping policy and practice. First time qualitative researchers require clear and practical guidance from the outset. However, given the diversity of both subject matter and methodological approaches encompassed by qualitative research, such guidance is not always easily come by.Qualitative Educational Research in Action: Doing and Reflecting is a collection of ten first-hand accounts by educational researchers of qualitative inquiries they carried out. The subjects are diverse, taking in school restructuring, policy analysis, critical literacy, phenomenology and the student teacher relationship. Each chapter outlines the research question investigated and provides an overview of the project's findings, before going on to describe how each researcher approached the challenges of their particular inquiry. The researchers reflect upon the unexpected turns qualitative research can take and the way such projects can move through different theoretical and methodological positions, often ending up significantly removed from the original premise, but all the more valuable for that.Anyone conducting qualitative research in education will be heartened and inspired by this collection, and will also find in it invaluable guidance on dealing effectively with the idiosyncrasies and pitfalls of qualitative research - guidance that is all the more valuable for coming from those who have themselves navigated similar difficulties.
Qualitative Educational Research in Developing Countries: Current Perspectives (Reference Books in International Education #35)
by Michael Crossley Graham VulliamyThis collection of 11 original in-depth accounts of qualitative research and evaluation in developing countries argues that such innovative methods offer considerable advantages over traditional methods. With examples drawn from Asia, Africa, the South Pacific, Central America and the Caribbean, each chapter focuses upon a specific method-such as qualitative interviews, fieldwork or document analysis-and considers related theoretical and practical issues. Key issues addressed include the identification of appropriate research questions; access; research ethics; practitioner research; case study evaluation; North-South collaboration and the potential of qualitative research for policy-making and theory.
Qualitative Ethics in Practice (Developing Qualitative Inquiry #14)
by Martin TolichNeither ethics committees nor qualitative researchers can predict the types of ethical dilemmas that will happen in the field, only that they will routinely occur. In Qualitative Ethics in Practice, a team of fifteen top researchers from various disciplines and nationalities offer ethical strategies unique to qualitative researchers for those "big ethical moments" beyond what can be predicted by ethics committees. Ideally structured for qualitative classes that tackle ethics issues, the book -calls for an ethical code unique to the practice of qualitative research; -uses a variety of cases from education, community development, tourism, family, and other settings to examine how researchers addressed ethical dilemmas in practice, including the infamous Belfast Project; -highlights some relevant models and programs being developed that may lead to solutions.

Qualitative Methods in Economics (Routledge Frontiers of Political Economy)
by Mirjana Radović-Marković Beatrice Avolio AlecchiDespite numerous books on research methodology, many have failed to present a complete, hands-on, practical book to lead college classes or individuals through the research process. We are seeing more and more scientific papers from all research fields that fail to meet the basic criteria in terms of research methods, as well as the structure, writing style and presentation of results. This book aims to address this gap in the market by providing an authoritative, easy to follow guide to research methods and how to apply them. Qualitative Methods in Economics is focused not only on the research methods/techniques but also the methodology. The main objective of this book is to discuss qualitative methods and their use in economics and social science research. Chapters identify several of the research approaches commonly used in social studies, from the importance of the role of science through to the techniques of data collection. Using an example research paper to examine the methods used to present the research, the second half of this book breaks down how to present and format your results successfully. This book will be of use to students and researchers who want to improve their research methods and read up on the new and cutting edge advances in research methods, as well as those who like to study ways to improve the research process.
Qualitative Reading Inventory
by Lauren Leslie JoAnne CaldwellThe QRI-6 continues to emphasize the authentic assessment of children’s reading abilities–from the earliest emergent readers to advanced readers. This popular resource provides graded word lists and numerous passages designed to assess a student’s oral reading accuracy, rate of reading, and comprehension of passage read orally and silently. Several unique features set it apart from other resources in the field, including narrative and expository passages at each level from pre-primer through high school, as well as all self-contained selections being highly representative of the structure and topics of materials found in basal readers and content-area textbooks. For example, passages at the pre-primer through second grade levels are presented with pictures, and maps and illustrations are part of the expository selections at fourth grade through high school levels. <p><p> The QRI-6 measures comprehension in several ways that allow an examiner to label a passage as familiar or unfamiliar to each student: by analyzing the student’s retelling or summarization; by looking at the student’s answers to explicit and implicit comprehension questions; through the answers to complex inference questions recommended by the Common Core State Standards; through the use of look-backs, which separate what readers remember from what they comprehend; and through the use of think-alouds at the sixth grade level and above to analyze the student’s thoughts during reading. These measurement tools presented in the QRI-6 contribute to its widespread popularity as a superb informal reading inventory.
