Book Description
The book “Teaching Online Simplified – A Quick Guide for Instructors” intended to serve as a practical guide or “handbook” for those who have limited or no prior knowledge in teaching and/or education but are interested in online teaching. It is also intended for: open university staff and lecturers who needs to teach online; lecturers who teach (or are planning to teach) online courses in higher education settings; lecturers who are interested to use technologies to support face-to-face teaching; and faculty professional development workshops and trainings. The book is written based on the authors’ research-based experiences in consulting online instructors on what they needed and wanted to know about designing online courses. Authors also interviewed a group of online students to understand what they liked and disliked about the way their current courses were conducted, and what kind of improvements they wanted their online programs to include. Hence, this book focusing on the “how” and “whys”, rather than theoretical discussions of teaching online. This book is a much-have resource for anyone involved in teaching online as it such as faculty members who want to convert his or her in-class course to an online format, and who are not necessarily familiar with current literature and/or do not have time to get acquainted with online teaching as it translates research-based knowledge in online education into simple strategies that can be easily adopted by teachers-practitioners.

Essential Actions for Academic Writing
Author: Nigel A. Caplan
Publisher: University of Michigan Press
ISBN: 047203796X
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 347
Book Description
Essential Actions for Academic Writers is a writing textbook for all novice academic students, undergraduate or graduate, to help them understand how to write effectively throughout their academic and professional careers. While these novice writers may use English as a second or additional language, this book is also intended for students who have done little writing in their prior education or who are not yet confident in their academic writing. Essential Actions combines genre research, proven pedagogical practices, and short readings to help students develop their rhetorical flexibility by exploring and practicing the key actions that will appear in academic assignments, such as explaining, summarizing, synthesizing, and arguing. Part I introduces students to rhetorical situation, genre, register, source use, and a framework for understanding how to approach any new writing task. The genre approach recognizes that all writing responds to a context that includes the writer's identity, the reader's expectations, the purpose of the text, and the conventions that shape it. Part II explores each essential action and provides examples of the genres and language that support it. Part III leads students in combining the actions in different genres and contexts, culminating in the project of writing a personal statement for a university or scholarship application.

Book Description
This is an open access book. The year 2022 is the year when people begin to rise from the impact of the Covid 19 pandemic that occurred for approximately 2 years before this.

Where all sports activities encounter obstacles such as sports competition activities, sports training, sports education and sports health services to the community. These obstacles have an impact on the economic decline of sports players. However, in 2022, all sporting activities are slowly restarting but still with due observance of health and safety protocols. Therefore, it is necessary to have discussions and access references to provide knowledge in starting activities in the sports sector after the Covid-19 Pandemic. Because indeed sports actors need to get mental support, knowledge and direction to start reviving sports activities in order to accelerate economic recovery. The Faculty of Sports Science, State University of Malang welcomes you to join the 6th International Conference on Sports Sciences and Health (6th ICCSH 2022). This conference focuses on how aspects of sport and health deal with issues in management, technology and innovation of sports and education as well as in scientific issues. Collaboration and knowledge sharing will be a great opportunity to overcome potential challenges that grow dynamically following the development of sports after the Covid-19 Pandemic.

Book Description
The widely used STEM education book, updated Teaching and Learning STEM: A Practical Guide covers teaching and learning issues unique to teaching in the science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) disciplines.

You’ll also gain the knowledge to implement learner-centered instruction, which has been shown to improve learning outcomes across disciplines. For this edition, chapters have been updated to reflect recent cognitive science and empirical educational research findings that inform STEM pedagogy. You’ll also find a new section on actively engaging students in synchronous and asynchronous online courses, and content has been substantially revised to reflect recent developments in instructional technology and online course development and delivery. Plan and deliver lessons that actively engage students—in person or online Assess students’ progress and help ensure retention of all concepts learned Help students develop skills in problem-solving, self-directed learning, critical thinking, teamwork, and communication Meet the learning needs of STEM students with diverse backgrounds and identities The strategies presented in Teaching and Learning STEM don’t require revolutionary time-intensive changes in your teaching, but rather a gradual integration of traditional and new methods. The result will be a marked improvement in your teaching and your students’ learning.

Ending Sexual Violence in College
Author: Joanne H. Gavin
Publisher: JHU Press
ISBN: 1421440164
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 281
Book Description
How do we create a culture of zero tolerance for sexual violence on college campuses? In a world where one in five women on campus experience some form of sexual assault, what would it take to create a campus culture that was free of violence against women? From a public health perspective, sexual assault is an epidemic on campuses, but why? What is it about a campus community culture that permits or encourages this, at a time when a majority of students are now female? In this practical guide for colleges and universities, Joanne H. Gavin, James Campbell Quick, and David J. Gavin lay out a community-based model that is designed to eliminate sexual misconduct, spot it before it happens, punish its perpetrators, support its victims/survivors, and end this epidemic. Ending Sexual Violence in College is a prescriptive guide for creating a campus culture that is intolerant of sexual misconduct regardless of who is involved or the context in which it happens. A culture of intolerance, the authors argue, does not consider the role or status of either the perpetrator or victim/survivor. Rather, this culture protects all members. Using a public health model with an emphasis on prevention to create this cultural change, the book utilizes psychological and organizational research to understand the challenges of making these changes while enhancing the odds of permanent cultural change for the better. Designed to spur community-wide conversations on how we can make our campuses safe from sexual violence, this book's preventive approach allows communities to self-monitor. The authors include case studies of institutions that have not been proactive in putting programs in place to protect students, as well as examples of institutions that are effectively addressing these problems. Aimed at college administrators and Title IX coordinators who are responsible for leading campuses that are safe for everyone, Ending Sexual Violence in College also enables those who work or live on a college campus to take an active role in making the campus safer.
