Book Description
"In the Fall of 2010 I gave an assignment in my Appalachian Literature class at Berea College, telling my students to write their own version of "Where I'm From" poem based on the writing prompt and poem by George Ella Lyon, one of the preeminent Appalachian poets. I was so impressed by the results of the assignment that I felt the poems needed to be preserved in a bound document. Thus, this little book. These students completely captured the complexities of this region and their poems contain all the joys and sorrows of living in Appalachia. I am proud that they were my students and I am very proud that together we produced this record of contemporary Appalachian Life" -- Silas House

ISBN: 0387889639
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 496
Book Description
During the past decade, significant advances have been made in the field of neurodevelopmental disorders, resulting in a considerable impact on conceptualization, diagnostics, and practice. The second edition of Child Neuropsychology: Assessment and Interventions for Neurodevelopmental Disorders brings readers up to speed clearly and authoritatively, offering the latest information on neuroimaging technologies, individual disorders, and effective treatment of children and adolescents. Starting with the basics of clinical child neuropsychology and functional anatomy, the authors present a transactional framework for assessment, diagnosis, and intervention. The book carefully links structure and function—and behavioral and biological science—for a more nuanced understanding of brain development and of pathologies as varied as pervasive developmental disorders, learning disabilities, neuromotor dysfunction, seizure disorders, and childhood cancers. This volume features a range of salient features valuable to students as well as novice and seasoned practitioners alike, including: Overview chapters that discuss the effects of biogenic and environmental factors on neurological functioning. New emphasis on multicultural/cross-cultural aspects of neuropsychology and assessment. Brand new chapters on interpretation, neuropsychological assessment process, and report writing. An integrative model of neurological, neuroradiological, and psychological assessment and diagnosis. Balanced coverage of behavioral, pharmacological, and educational approaches to treatment. Case studies illustrating typical and distinctive presentations and successful diagnosis, treatment planning, and intervention. Important practice updates, including the new HIPAA regulations. Child Neuropsychology, 2nd Edition, is vital reading for school, clinical child, and counseling psychologists as well as neuropsychologists. The book also provides rich background and practical material for graduate students entering these fields.

Hanging Out, Messing Around, and Geeking Out
Author: Mizuko Ito
Publisher: MIT Press
ISBN: 0262258269
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 441
Book Description
An examination of young people's everyday new media practices—including video-game playing, text-messaging, digital media production, and social media use. Conventional wisdom about young people's use of digital technology often equates generational identity with technology identity: today's teens seem constantly plugged in to video games, social networking sites, and text messaging. Yet there is little actual research that investigates the intricate dynamics of youths' social and recreational use of digital media. Hanging Out, Messing Around, and Geeking Out fills this gap, reporting on an ambitious three-year ethnographic investigation into how young people are living and learning with new media in varied settings—at home, in after-school programs, and in online spaces. Integrating twenty-three case studies—which include Harry Potter podcasting, video-game playing, music sharing, and online romantic breakups—in a unique collaborative authorship style, Hanging Out, Messing Around, and Geeking Out is distinctive for its combination of in-depth description of specific group dynamics with conceptual analysis.

Handbook of Intelligence
Author: Sam Goldstein
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 1493915622
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 498
Book Description
Numerous functions, cognitive skills, and behaviors are associated with intelligence, yet decades of research has yielded little consensus on its definition. Emerging from often conflicting studies is the provocative idea that intelligence evolved as an adaptation humans needed to keep up with – and survive in – challenging new environments. The Handbook of Intelligence addresses a broad range of issues relating to our cognitive and linguistic past. It is the first full-length volume to place intelligence in an evolutionary/cultural framework, tracing the development of the human mind, exploring differences between humans and other primates, and addressing human thinking and reasoning about its own intelligence and its uses. The works of pioneering thinkers – from Plato to Darwin, Binet to Piaget, Luria to Weachsler – are referenced to illustrate major events in the evolution of theories of intelligence, leading to the current era of multiple intelligences and special education programs. In addition, it examines evolutionary concepts in areas as diverse as creativity, culture, neurocognition, emotional intelligence, and assessment. Featured topics include: The evolution of the human brain from matter to mind Social competition and the evolution of fluid intelligence Multiple intelligences in the new age of thinking Intelligence as a malleable construct From traditional IQ to second-generation intelligence tests The evolution of intelligence, including implications for educational programming and policy. The Handbook of Intelligence is an essential resource for researchers, graduate students, clinicians, and professionals in developmental psychology; assessment, testing and evaluation; language philosophy; personality and social psychology; sociology; and developmental biology.

Our Children's Future
Author: Colin Ward
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781916135314
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 172
Book Description
"Our Children's Future: Does Public service Media Matter" is a report published by UK advocacy body, the Children's Media Foundation. It takes the form of a multi-authored discussion on various aspects of public service media and its relationship to young people in Britain in 2021 and looks forward to consider the years ahead. The report was commissioned in the context of reviews of public service media by the regulator Ofcom, and Parliamentary Select Committees, and government interest in various aspects of the public service media landscape - including: the future ownership of Channel 4; the future of the pilot Young Audiences Content Fund which supported commercial public service broadcasters by enhancing the budgets available for commissioning, and the future of The BBC and the television licence fee. The Report's focus on young people is especially relevant because any discussion of the future prospects for public service content is significantly impacted by the flight of young audiences to on-demand services - either the huge international streaming services such as Netflix or Disney+, or online social media platforms such as YouTube or Tik Tok. Authors of chapters for this Report analyse how the young audiences reached this new relationship with content and how that affects the future of conventional broadcasting and the regulatory status quo. They also consider innovative ways in which "new futures" for public service content funding, delivery and commissioning could play out. The report is an invaluable contribution to the discussion of the future of this vital part of the UK's media landscape, and its special reference to the children's and youth audience are unique in the current exploration of the debate.
