Book Description
For 21st Century Educators – The New Rules Of Student Engagement Today’s classroom demands teacher innovation and rejection of outdated practices, especially when someone tells you it’s “always been done” a certain way. In this book, Josh Stumpenhorst details his methods for improving student outcomes with unorthodox thinking. Content includes: Building relationships built on trust and respect, not fear and punishment Why you need to rethink homework and letter grades, which—in their current forms—are harming learning How to leverage technology by not treating it as a “shiny toy”, but rather fully understanding their power as tools for massive progress

Leaders of Learning: The Vision, Clarity of Purpose and Drive Needed for Outstanding School Leadership
Author: Rob Stokoe
Publisher: John Catt
ISBN: 1398382973
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 150
Book Description
Rob Stokoe, director at Jumeirah English Speaking Schools in Dubai, explores the ever-changing demands and requirements for leadership in education and leaders of learning: 'We now know so much more about how we learn, how our brains function and grow. Our collaborative networks are growing exponentially; educators are now globally connected. Furthermore there is a growing awareness and a deeper understanding emerging, a convergence of ideas, new and old, which are informing the educational debate. 'We have a job to do, to make informed, considered decisions, to be flexible and pro active, take risks in order to structure and define ways of learning and inquiry-based education which will best meet the needs of students who are the greatest resource humanity has. Our goal is simply to determine a meaningful and purposeful future for each and every student globally.'

The Deep Learning Revolution
Author: Terrence J. Sejnowski
Publisher: MIT Press
ISBN: 026203803X
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
How deep learning—from Google Translate to driverless cars to personal cognitive assistants—is changing our lives and transforming every sector of the economy. The deep learning revolution has brought us driverless cars, the greatly improved Google Translate, fluent conversations with Siri and Alexa, and enormous profits from automated trading on the New York Stock Exchange. Deep learning networks can play poker better than professional poker players and defeat a world champion at Go. In this book, Terry Sejnowski explains how deep learning went from being an arcane academic field to a disruptive technology in the information economy. Sejnowski played an important role in the founding of deep learning, as one of a small group of researchers in the 1980s who challenged the prevailing logic-and-symbol based version of AI. The new version of AI Sejnowski and others developed, which became deep learning, is fueled instead by data. Deep networks learn from data in the same way that babies experience the world, starting with fresh eyes and gradually acquiring the skills needed to navigate novel environments. Learning algorithms extract information from raw data; information can be used to create knowledge; knowledge underlies understanding; understanding leads to wisdom. Someday a driverless car will know the road better than you do and drive with more skill; a deep learning network will diagnose your illness; a personal cognitive assistant will augment your puny human brain. It took nature many millions of years to evolve human intelligence; AI is on a trajectory measured in decades. Sejnowski prepares us for a deep learning future.

Human Intellect: Optimal Tuning and Control
Author: Yuri Iserlis
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1728363403
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 495
Book Description
It is easily can be proved that the human brain equipped sense organs can work as an universal measuring tool, and measure with sufficient accuracy after some training not only a distance, mass or volume, but and parameters of important personal functions. Unfortunately, this instrument does not have an indicator device (panel) and results of measurements usually hidden in the depth of subconscious part of mind. To extract these results of measurements, at first, is needed to find an access code for this information, secondly, to deduce this information in a convenient for perception form, and after that to decipher it. Based on this approach a new method of direct measurement of intellectual parameters was used for appraisal such characteristics of intellect and mind as creativity, intuition, willpower, stress level, vital energy index, etc. Verification of the accuracy of measurement of some bio-physical parameters measured by the same method (for example number of thrombocytes in the blood) is carried out by comparison with laboratory blood tests. Research and physical measurements of a person's intellectual abilities have shown that they can change significantly from the influence of many external factors and, first of all, of light, electromagnetic and sound perceptions of the senses, both for the better and for the worse. This allows significantly increasing the capabilities and expanding the range of use of any entrainment technology. Using algorithms of multi-parameter optimization, the method allows increasing the level of intellect and its components in several times practically for everyone. Measurement of willpower and stress opens the prospect for many people to maintain their health and activity at the proper level throughout life. In the book are collected also some rules and methods allowing to support intellectual abilities of the mind on an optimum level by means of mindset management, control of the subconscious mind, cognitive control, and control emotions. Method of measurement of intellectual abilities and compatibility of team members can be used in process of the hiring, searching a bride, etc.

Chinese as a Second and Foreign Language Education
Author: Qiao Yu Cai
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9811074437
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 136
Book Description
This book presents key issues in the teaching of Chinese as a second or foreign language (TCSL or TCFL). It investigates how multimedia can help to assist TCSL/TCFL and explores practical effects of multimedia-assisted teaching at secondary schools in the Philippines. It addresses the psychology of TCSL/TCFL and discusses various recurring foreign graduate students concerns when learning academic Chinese in graduate institutes in Taiwan. It examines issues of educational assessment and testing, analyzing the validity of a self-made placement test for an immigrant Chinese program, as well as the psychological characteristics of adult learners and their implications for immigrant Chinese curriculum design. As foreign learners of Chinese grow exponentially, this cutting edge read conceptualizes the educational philosophy of TCSL/TCFL as a distinctive discipline.
