The Ivy League Playbook
Author: Athena
Publisher: Penguin Random House India Private Limited
ISBN: 9357084304
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
Elite American admissions systems seem shrouded in mystery. Plummeting acceptance rates suggest that even the most stellar academic record no longer suffices to differentiate a candidate from the rest of the applicant pool. The personal essay is an exercise in self-marketing, in underscoring your authentic value-add to a college campus. Without the right frameworks and insights on how to approach this task, many applicants miss the opportunity to convey something profound about themselves. After a decade of studying what works for the world's most selective admissions committees, we've crystalized the elements that distinguish winning essays from those cast upon the dreaded "rejected" pile. Through in-depth analyses of 25 Common Application Essays that have succeeded at Ivy League and "Ivy+" (Stanford, Caltech, UChicago) universities, you'll discover the transformative journey of composing an outstanding college essay that leaves a lasting impression. And beyond the samples, you'll gain actionable tools and concrete exercises in our workbook to compose your very own.

How We Learn
Author: Benedict Carey
Publisher: Random House
ISBN: 0812993896
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
In the tradition of The Power of Habit and Thinking, Fast and Slow comes a practical, playful, and endlessly fascinating guide to what we really know about learning and memory today—and how we can apply it to our own lives. From an early age, it is drilled into our heads: Restlessness, distraction, and ignorance are the enemies of success. We’re told that learning is all self-discipline, that we must confine ourselves to designated study areas, turn off the music, and maintain a strict ritual if we want to ace that test, memorize that presentation, or nail that piano recital. But what if almost everything we were told about learning is wrong? And what if there was a way to achieve more with less effort? In How We Learn, award-winning science reporter Benedict Carey sifts through decades of education research and landmark studies to uncover the truth about how our brains absorb and retain information. What he discovers is that, from the moment we are born, we are all learning quickly, efficiently, and automatically; but in our zeal to systematize the process we have ignored valuable, naturally enjoyable learning tools like forgetting, sleeping, and daydreaming. Is a dedicated desk in a quiet room really the best way to study? Can altering your routine improve your recall? Are there times when distraction is good? Is repetition necessary? Carey’s search for answers to these questions yields a wealth of strategies that make learning more a part of our everyday lives—and less of a chore. By road testing many of the counterintuitive techniques described in this book, Carey shows how we can flex the neural muscles that make deep learning possible. Along the way he reveals why teachers should give final exams on the first day of class, why it’s wise to interleave subjects and concepts when learning any new skill, and when it’s smarter to stay up late prepping for that presentation than to rise early for one last cram session. And if this requires some suspension of disbelief, that’s because the research defies what we’ve been told, throughout our lives, about how best to learn. The brain is not like a muscle, at least not in any straightforward sense. It is something else altogether, sensitive to mood, to timing, to circadian rhythms, as well as to location and environment. It doesn’t take orders well, to put it mildly. If the brain is a learning machine, then it is an eccentric one. In How We Learn, Benedict Carey shows us how to exploit its quirks to our advantage.

Book Description
For Alina, destruction is inherent. Her mother sends her away to Greendale college, to keep her from causing trouble, but it seems like trouble lurks behind her like a looming shadow. And even though the college is the last place Alina wants to be, she has no choice. Barely two weeks after settling in, she discovers a truth that shocks her core- that the school houses creatures of the night: Witches, demons, monsters and the lot of them. Alina digs deeper into her history, to see how she fits into everything. But the more she searches, the less she sees. And as the line between friendship, love and betrayal grows thinner, Alina finds herself caught in the middle of a war birthed hundreds of years ago, when the first generation of Star Flies marched.

Race After Technology
Author: Ruha Benjamin
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1509526439
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 172
Book Description
From everyday apps to complex algorithms, Ruha Benjamin cuts through tech-industry hype to understand how emerging technologies can reinforce White supremacy and deepen social inequity. Benjamin argues that automation, far from being a sinister story of racist programmers scheming on the dark web, has the potential to hide, speed up, and deepen discrimination while appearing neutral and even benevolent when compared to the racism of a previous era. Presenting the concept of the “New Jim Code,” she shows how a range of discriminatory designs encode inequity by explicitly amplifying racial hierarchies; by ignoring but thereby replicating social divisions; or by aiming to fix racial bias but ultimately doing quite the opposite. Moreover, she makes a compelling case for race itself as a kind of technology, designed to stratify and sanctify social injustice in the architecture of everyday life. This illuminating guide provides conceptual tools for decoding tech promises with sociologically informed skepticism. In doing so, it challenges us to question not only the technologies we are sold but also the ones we ourselves manufacture. Visit the book's free Discussion Guide here.
