Book Description
Books 13-15: The New Rulebook & Pete Zendel Christian Suspense series. Book 13: HUNTED John Martinez had seen firsthand how dangerous to human life guns were when he was kidnapped and forced to live in captivity with guns held over his head. Working with the cops to assist with the rescue of others behind captivity, he hated guns. Now a free man and forced to flee his sister's home when danger follows his younger brother home, John did not expect their temporary shelter—the home of his sister's friend, Liberty—to be that of a gun lover. Trying to keep his brother safe, will he lose his heart to a woman who loves guns just as much as she loves him? Famous actress Liberty Stone was one woman nobody messed with. Rich, classy, beautiful, and confident, she was armed and knew how to protect herself when the need arose, thanks to multiple assaults she'd survived—assaults that turned her into a cold and unfeeling person, to protect her heart. When her friend, SSPD Officer Angel Martinez, requested temporary shelter at her Fortitude Homes Estate for her brothers amid a police case, Liberty readily obliged. What Liberty hadn't expected was a chance run-in with John, falling in love with a gun-hater with a tender heart, and an unplanned kiss leading John right into her locked-up heart. Together, will they find healing from pain and discover that God gives second chances and connects people in His time, in His way, and to fulfill His purpose—despite long-held prejudices? Book 14: COURAGEOUS SSPD detective Ladi Zoe was sure the dangerous mission to uncover the identity of the Hunter would be the end of her. Living under the constant fear of being outed, while performing duties that made serious criminal behavior seem elementary, she survived purely on the hope that her mission will be successful—and she will find out who the Hunter was. However, when she is assigned to a deadly mission which threatened the life of the man she'd secretly fallen in love with—Hughes Martinez, Officer Angel Martinez's baby brother whom she'd rescued—she is faced with the choice to save his life yet again and risk her own in addition to being unmasked. Will she choose to stay undercover and let him die to get the Hunter or will she accept for her cover to be blown, risk her own life all to save the life of the man she loved—who didn't know she loved him? Book 15: DEFENDED Hunted by dangerous elements, and barely escaping with her life, undercover police officer Ladi Zoe vanishes without a trace. With her whereabouts untraceable, she left behind a trail of evidence for dismantling a dangerous network of criminals, and the love of her life brokenhearted.

How Higher Education Feels
Author: Kathleen M. Quinlan
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9463006362
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 279
Book Description
Teaching and learning in higher education can evoke strong feelings, including confusion, anxiety, boredom, curiosity, surprise and exhilaration. These emotions affect students’ learning, progress and overall success. Teachers’ emotions affect how they teach and their relationships and communication with students. Yet the emotional dimensions of teachers’ and students’ experiences are rarely discussed in the context of improving higher education. This book addresses that gap, offering short, evocative case studies to spark conversation among university teachers. It challenges readers to reflect on how higher education feels, to explore the emotional landscape of courses and programmes they create and consider the emotional effects of messages embedded in various policies and practices. Following the student lifecycle from enrolment to reunion, each of the main chapters contains 10 to 15 accessible, emotionally-engaging poems that serve as succinct case studies highlighting how some aspect of learning, teaching or development in higher education feels. Each chapter also contains an expert scholarly commentary that identifies emergent themes across the cases and establishes connections to theory and practice in higher education. The poems-as-case-studies are ideal for use in faculty or educational development workshops or for individual reflection. A variety of theoretical perspectives and associated reflection prompts provide lenses for variously interpreting the poems. An appendix offers suggestions for structuring case discussions as part of educational development activities. The book promotes a person-centered discourse, giving voice to previously neglected aspects of higher education and reminding us that education is essentially a human endeavor.
