Sinopsis

"The Postage System" unveils the captivating history of mail delivery, from ancient messengers to today's complex global networks. It emphasizes the transformative impact of postage stamps, highlighting how they revolutionized communication and shaped modern society. For example, the introduction of the Uniform Penny Post in Britain marked a pivotal moment, paving the way for affordable and efficient mail services worldwide. The book explores how these systems have not only facilitated commerce but also influenced governance and personal relationships.

 
This historical exploration begins with early communication methods, moves through the development of formal postal services, and culminates in an analysis of contemporary systems grappling with digital communication. Readers gain insights into the challenges of early mail delivery, such as unreliable transportation and security concerns, and understand how innovations addressed these issues.

 
By drawing from postal records, government documents, and personal correspondence, "The Postage System" offers a comprehensive yet accessible look at the evolution of this vital infrastructure.

  • The Black Death And Its Impact on The Church And Popular Religion - cover

    The Black Death And Its Impact...

    This book concerns the religious impact of the Black Death. This plague devastated Europe in the fourteenth century. It examines the impact of the Black Death on the Catholic Church and the religious movements that arose in response to it. The conclusions drawn here are based on the research of both primary and secondary sources. The Church played a significant role during the Middle Ages because religion was an essential aspect of daily life for European Christians. When the Black Death struck Europe in 1347, the Church struggled to cope with the plague’s damaging consequences, and its reputation suffered as a result. This book concludes that the Black Death contributed to a decline in the confidence and faith of the Christian laity towards the Church and its leadership. The scope of this book focuses on the plague’s impact on the clergy, the rise of the flagellant movement, and the widespread Jewish persecutions that ensued in the wake of the epidemic. The Black Death was a pivotal event in the history of Western society, with profound cultural and demographic consequences. Its impact on the Church and religion within the medieval community justifies the study of this topic.

    Even with new health-care policies, it's clear that health-care costs will continue to rise dramatically. While individuals may get better coverage, businesses will have the same problem they've had for the last four decades. Health care, one of corporate America's largest expenses, is growing at double-digit rates, and nothing done in Washington will change that. 
     
     
     
    But one company set out to tame the beast of rising health-care costs. Serigraph, Inc., a Wisconsin-based manufacturer of decorative parts, and its chairman, John Torinus, did what Washington can't or won't do: reduce cost increases to less than two percent while improving the quality of health care for its employees. The implications for corporate America are staggering—the opportunity for genuine reform in an expense category that has been spiraling out of control. 
     
     
     
    The Company That Solved Health Care describes the fascinating details of Serigraph's program and shows how any company can achieve similar results. This book is a must-listen for any manager responsible for his or her company's health-care expenses, any academic or thinker involved in the health-care debate, and anyone who wants to better understand why health-care costs have been rising and what can be done to achieve price stability while improving patient care.

    Written by Kristian Still,Test-Enhanced Learning: A practical guide to improving academic outcomes for all studentsis an informative guidebook that explores the wealth of evidence behind and the benefits of test-enhanced learning, spaced retrieval practice and personalisation.
    Detailing the most up to date research into improving learning and retention, it takes us on a journey into test-enhanced learning, spaced retrieval practice, motivation, metacognition and personalisation. In so doing, the book provides a blueprint for all teachers and schools to improve the academic outcomes of their students and to achieve this in ways that improve the motivation of learners and reduces the workload for teachers.
    Kristian Still has been developing these ideas with his classes for many years and has achieved considerable success in terms of thedirect learning gains, and improved assessment grades of his pupils and the indirect gains instudentsgrowing confidence in lessons, with a wider group of pupils contributing to class and improved classroom behaviour. Consequently, students are finding greater comfort in class and experiencing less pressure or underpreparedness when a question is asked.
    The book is supported by the freeRemembermoreapp which uses digital flashcards as an aid to deliver the learning gains of personalised, spaced retrieval practice, providing teachers with insights into the effectiveness of their own teaching. It also contains a number of practical case studies from teachers using these techniques and the app to produce great results in their schools.
    Spaced retrieval practice is a highly effective but counter intuitive revision technique in that it involves forgetting and relearning knowledge.Test-Enhanced Learningprovides a blueprint for motivating students to adopt this technique in favour of seemingly easier but less effective techniques such as re-reading. Moreover, theRemembermoreapp does most of the convincing for you. It is a tool, not only to provide the flashcards for retrieval practice, but also to demonstrate the power of the technique to pupils.
    The book goes a step beyond mere retrieval practice, offering a fresh approach to test-enhanced learning, both pretesting and post testing, supported by real, classroom-based routines that have been tried and tested by both Primary and Secondary teachers across a range of subjects. Exploring the research behind test-enhanced learning, it reveals that both pretesting and post testing (retrieval practice) offers improved memorisation and secures long-term learning.
    Suitable for all teachers in all settings.
