SEND Intervention: Planning Provision with Purpose (The Essential SENCO Toolkit)
by Judith CarterThe second in The Essential SENCO Toolkit series, this resource clarifies and explores the key distinctions between quality first teaching adjustments, resources/support and interventions. It allows practitioners to develop their practice effectively and strategically to capture the true impact of SEND provision, by shifting the focus from the ‘who and when’ to the ‘what and why’. Chapters also include original frameworks – the 4 Functions of Learning Support – to help with the deployment of teaching assistants and to provide a shared language of support, as well as resources that support the application of the 7 Cs Learning Portfolio (introduced in the first book in the series, SEND Assessment) and an intervention index to fully understand the purpose and effectiveness of interventions. Key features offered: An introduction to the 4 Functions of Learning Support, providing a measurable language of learning support to help practitioners to organise and deploy teaching assistants as part of their SEND provision An intervention index to enable individual or MAT-based SENCOs to capture their own evidence base regarding the purpose and impact of interventions Intervention action cards and targeted outcomes for all 49 themes within the 7 Cs Learning Portfolio A photocopiable and downloadable programme of materials that can be used by readers to gain a better understanding of interventions. SEND Intervention will promote confidence and clarity regarding the rationale for SEND provision. This essential resource provides a practical toolkit to support both new and experienced SENCOs and SEN practitioners.
Senderos de Libertad: Pedagogía en valles y cumbres Pirenaicas
by Josep Cartañà PonsSi te interesa la libertad, vivir como un ser libre, compaginando la cultura del cuerpo, el espíritu y el deporte, este es el libro que necesitas. Aprovecha la ocasión. La crisis educativa es otro más de los reflejos de la crisis de valores, del empañamiento de las virtudes, con todas sus terribles consecuencias en el mundo moderno. Un mundo en donde la libertad se ha convertido en un concepto elusivo. <P><P>¿Qué ha ocurrido en estos aproximadamente 50-60 últimos años? Antes, en mi opinión, la falta de libertad se detectaba en la débil voluntad que impedía hacer el bien. Y educar consistía en ayudar por vía de autoridad (padres, maestros, tutores,...) a adquirir los hábitos convenientes para fortalecer la voluntad de modo que el niño/a fuera capaz de hacer lo que hay que hacer le guste o no. Con sorprendente aceleración se ha renunciado a la voluntad. Nos hemos inclinado por cambiar lanoción de bien por otro sucedáneo, que ya no es el bien objetivo sino algo que se acomoda a la persona que ha renunciado a la lucha para ser libre de verdad. Es la catarsis de la voluntad. <P><P>Propongo un aprendizaje activo, quizás limitado en el modo, en base a una experiencia que puede resultar atractiva para los amantes de la aventura, del deporte y especialmente del montañismo, a través de realizar ascensos al Pico de Aneto, la cúspide de los Pirineos, realizados con alumnos, amigos, familiares. <P><P>En cada encuentro se vive una experiencia única de aprendizaje en la virtud. Este libro propone, en pocas palabras, una educación orientada a recomponer a la persona; porque recomponiendo a la persona, podremos recomponer al mundo.

Senefelder on Lithography: The Classic 1819 Treatise
by Alois SenefelderThe invention in the late eighteenth century of lithography, or "writing on stone," reshaped the course of graphic arts. Some years later, the father of this world-changing technology, Alois Senefelder, published a description of the process. This English translation of the original German work, Vollständiges Lehrbuch der Steindruckerey, vividly describes Senefelder's struggles to develop and popularize the medium and the lithographic techniques employed in the process. The work is divided into two parts: the first presents a history of the invention and its different processes; the second provides practical instructions for its application--the varieties of stone, ink, instruments, paper, and presses used for different tasks, and the pitfalls to be avoided in working with these materials. An essential reference for graphic artists and students, the classic 1819 treatise remains the definitive work on this topic.
