The Teaching of Science: Education, Science and Society (Routledge Revivals)
by F. R. JevonsFirst published in 1969, The Teaching of Science primarily deals with science teaching in secondary schools and universities but its searching discussion of criteria concerns all who have to do with education. The concise but well-documented treatments of the nature of the scientific process and of the social implications of science will be of interest to many scientists and especially useful for teachers of general studies. Professor Jevons looks first at why we should teach science and thereby sheds light on the more immediately practical problems of how it should be done. He thus does more than merely add to the already large volume of exhortation to make it more attractive and intellectually stimulating.

The Technique of Pencil Drawing
by Borough JohnsonOnly a thoroughly accomplished artist such as Borough Johnson--a nineteenth-century landscape and genre painter--could manage to illuminate the technique of pencil drawing in these exquisitely simple terms. Artists at every level of experience will appreciate the wealth of information he offers on everything from choosing the right tools to drawing the nude figure. With a host of helpful "how-to" illustrations, as well as a "mini-gallery" of finished compositions, this invaluable guide offers clear direction for artists who want to learn to draw--or sharpen their skills. Johnson starts with the basics, explaining how to hold a pencil for the greatest control, how to select the right paper, and how to add shading and tone for the best results. "The range of effects is infinite," he affirms. Moving outdoors, he tackles landscapes, seascapes, and other scenery, demonstrating where to start your sketch and where to leave off. When drawing the nude figure, he suggests quick poses to capture body structure and balance before adding detail. Best of all, Johnson explores the importance of individuality in each artist and how each one's expression should be absolutely unique. When you see the magnificent artwork included--from stunning portraits of dancers and fishermen to splendid scenes in Venice and Pisa--you'll be inspired to master this expressive art form.
The Technological-Industrial Complex and Education: Navigating Algorithms, Datafication, and Artificial Intelligence in Comparative and International Education
by Florin D. Salajan tavis d. jules Max Crumley-Effinger Sydney Marie Curtis Victoria DesimoniThis Pivot book looks at the ways in which disruptive technologies, datafication, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are shaping Comparative and International (CIE) Education and leading to its platformization. CIE entails the study of foreign educational systems in comparative perspective to discern what can be learned from approaches in various educational contexts and how these approaches might be applicable to other educational systems. The advent of advanced technologies, particularly AI, has been a game changer for research, teaching, and learning methods. It is within this context and at the intersection of deglobalization (and the retreat towards regionalization) and the rise of the fourth industrial revolution—that blends the biological, physical, and cyber-physical together—that this project seeks to describe the benefits and consequences of datafication and AI for the field of CIE.

The Technology of Teaching
by B. F. SkinnerOn Parent's Day, in 1952, B. F. Skinner visited his daughter's fourth grade math class. As he watched the lesson, he became increasingly uncomfortable. Almost every principle of effective teaching that he had studied for more than 20 years was being violated in that classroom. Yet it was a typical class. The teacher showed how to solve the day's problems, then gave the students a worksheet to do. Some children began to work readily while others shifted uncomfortably in their chairs, or raised their hands for help. The teacher went from desk to desk, giving help and feedback. Skinner knew what was needed. Each student should be given a problem tailored precisely to his or her skill level, not to the class average, and every answer needed to be assessed immediately to determine the next step. The task was clearly impossible for one teacher. That afternoon, Skinner set to work on a teaching machine. Today's computers have made the mechanical machine obsolete, but the principles of how to design instruction in steps that lead from a basic level to competent performance are as valid today as they were in the 20th century. This book brings together Skinner's writings on education during the years he was most involved in improving education.

The Temple and Its Teaching
by Arthur E. SmithSince time began men have vied with each other in erecting buildings beautiful in architectural design and material to commemorate a name, an event, or to serve in their worship of God.David&’s son Solomon acknowledged by Christians and non-Christians for his scholarly wisdom during a reign of forty years was responsible for the erection of a famous beautiful Temple. Detailed descriptions and measurements are given of Solomon&’s Temple in the Bible.However, more Christians direct their attention and study to the Old Testament Tabernacle than to Solomon&’s Temple. Many Christians may be able to tell more about the Taj Mahal or the Mosque of Omar than about the Temple and pattern of ritual executed within it by the people of Israel.You will be amazed and delighted to find how much the Temple reveals of scriptural truth for the Christian today. The structure, the utensils, the color scheme—all speak of God&’s work for, His dealings with, his people and, transcending all, of His glory.The many illustrations in the book with their descriptions will enhance and deepen your study as they elucidate scriptural truth, perhaps hitherto hidden from you. The author seeks to edify you, not to add merely another book to your Christian library.Come now, how much study time have you given to the study of Solomon&’s Temple, or how familiar are you with it? At nominal cost to you, here is your opportunity to add precious Christian truth to your present store of Bible knowledge.
