The Quick Guide to Classroom Management

ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 246
Book Description
This is the much anticipated Third Edition of the original award-winning volume. Fully indexed and updated, this edition covers the same topics as the First and Second editions but with new information for 2021 onwards. The book begins by examining key mistakes teachers make in the 'direct realm' - i.e. when interacting face-to-face with students. These first three chapters cover rapport-building, active-engagement and behavior management as it applies in a high-school setting. Following this, the book expansively covers a range of tips, techniques and tools to engage advanced, exam-level learners and to effectively enhance the teaching process via the use of technology. The book concludes with an often overlooked sphere of teaching: how to work effectively with colleagues and parents (very powerful when strategized correctly). Bonus material on the unique challenges of teaching overseas is provided in a plenary chapter. This edition of the book has been exhaustively proofread and indexed, and is of a much-higher quality than can be attributed to the First and Second editions.

Book Description
Regain control over your own mind and conquer, once and for all, the negative influences in your environment with Napoleon Hill’s Outwitting the Devil® Action Guide. After publishing his all-time bestseller Think and Grow Rich, Hill found himself plagued by indecision and unable to fully implement his own success principles. Forced to consult the Devil to understand the larger forces at work upon an individual, Hill discovered the greatest of all principles—a natural law that grants or denies humans spiritual and economic freedom, depending on how they use their mind. What emerges is an achievement philosophy that challenges the accepted wisdom of civilization and identifies independence of thought and harmonious relationships as the secret to freedom and success. Hill recorded his interview with darkness in Outwitting the Devil®, which remained unpublished for 70 years later because of its controversial ideas. Truth is often embedded in stories we don’t want to hear. The Devil won for a span of time, but the victory is no longer his. The keys to freedom of thought and abundance—in all domains of life—are now available to you. This summary and action guide equips you to chart your own path to self-determination using Hill’s discoveries as your roadmap. The book is organized into 20 core success concepts whose mastery will help you harness the power of your thoughts and make nature’s greatest law work in your favor. Although suitable for individual study, readers will find the most benefit from discussing the principles in the context of a study group or book club. So, clear your mind of preconceived notions and dominant societal narratives, and prepare yourself to be taken on a journey of self-discovery that will restore power over your mind so that you can make life pay off on your own terms.

Outwitting the Devil: The Complete Text, Reproduced from Napoleon Hill's Original Manuscript, Including Never-Before-Published Content
Author: Napoleon Hill
Publisher: Official Publication of the Na
ISBN: 9781640952225
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
Following the success of his 1937 landmark bestseller, Think and Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill wrote Outwitting the Devil, an exposé on the methods the Devil uses to ensnare and control the minds of human beings. Exploring the innermost depths of the psychology of motivation to understand why so many individuals, including himself, cannot find the initiative and courage they need to consistently implement the philosophy of individual achievement, Hill went so far as to interview the Devil himself. The resulting confession from the Devil made this book so controversial as to remain unpublished for over 70 years. Now it is your turn to break the Devil's code and free yourself from the hidden methods of control that lead to ruin. In this reproduction of the complete text of Hill's original manuscript is laid out the exact nature of the power by which the Devil disarms human beings with fear, procrastination, anger, and jealousy so that they do not reach their full potential. This is the same power that paralyzed millions of individuals with fear and despondency during the Great Depression and continues to hold people back from their dreams. Complacency and mediocrity are not the root issue; they are symptoms of deeper ills that we are conditioned by society to accept. But you must open your mind to acquire knowledge and consider facts that might not harmonize with your personal beliefs in order to access a greater truth that will, as Hill said in his original preface, "bring harmony out of chaos in this age of frustration and fear." If you have been the victim of lost courage, weakened enthusiasm, and lack of self-discipline--if you are demoralized and plagued by fear, anxiety, overwhelm, or apathy--the seven principles to freedom detailed in this book herald your redemption. You will finally become independent of the causes of failure and misery, break the bonds of destructive habits, and unlock the secret of a natural law as significant as the law of gravity so that you can outwit the devil once and for all.

Processes of Transposition
Author: Hermann Rasche
Publisher: Rodopi
ISBN: 9042022841
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 385
Book Description
The essays collected in this book focus on the multi-faceted relationship between German/Austrian literature and the cinema screen. Scholars from Ireland, Great Britain, Germany, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Portugal, USA and Canada present critical readings of a wide range of transpositions of German-language texts to film, while also considering the impact of cinema on German literature, exploring intertextualities as well as intermedialities. The forum of discussion thus created encompasses cinematic narratives based on Goethe's Faust, Kleist's Marquise of O..., Kubrick's film version of Schnitzler's Dream Story and Caroline Link's Oscar-winning adaptation of Stefanie Zweig's novel Nowhere in Africa. The wide-ranging analyses of the complex interaction between literature and film presented here focus on literary works by Anna Seghers, Hans-Magnus Enzensberger, Nicola Rhon, Günter Grass, Heinrich Böll, Elfriede Jelinek, Rolf Dieter Brinkmann, Erich Hackl, Thomas Brussig, Sven Regener, Frank Goosen and Robert Schneider, as well as on adaptations by filmmakers such as Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau, Max Mack, Josef von Sternberg, Max W. Kimmich, Fred Zinnemann, Paul Wegener, Alexander Kluge, Volker Schlöndorff, Hansjürgen Pohland, Hendrik Handloegten, Michael Haneke, Christoph Stark, Karin Brandauer, Joseph Vilsmaier, Leander Haußmann and Doris Dörrie.

The Folktale
Author: Stith Thompson
Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 9780520033597
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 524
Book Description
As interest in folklore increases, the folktale acquires greater significance for students and teachers of literature. The material is massive and scattered; thus, few students or teachers have accessibility to other than small segments or singular tales or material they find buried in archives. Stith Thompson has divided his book into four sections which permit both the novice and the teacher to examine oral tradition and its manifestation in folklore. The introductory section discusses the nature and forms of the folktale. A comprehensive second part traces the folktale geographically from Ireland to India, giving culturally diverse examples of the forms presented in the first part. The examples are followed by the analysis of several themes in such tales from North American Indian cultures. The concluding section treats theories of the folktale, the collection and classification of folk narrative, and then analyzes the living folklore process. This work will appeal to students of the sociology of literature, professors of comparative literature, and general readers interested in folklore.
