    A study of a wide range of different educational problems and possible solutions, including:How do we learn?Why do people struggle in various stages of education?Why don’t people develop through their education?What is the relationship of sensitive mothering to development?What are the major theories of child development?Home school vs school; what’s the difference?Nature, nurture and child psychologyGetting over the articulation gap 
    I’ve taught in a lot of different environments, to a lot of different learners. From teaching basic English conjunctions to scuba diving rescue patterns, it’s been a complex journey through what we think of as teaching. 
    What I’ve learned is that we’re failing students, all over the world. That’s not a new thought, but perhaps by properly appreciating the problem we can come to the solution. 
    The first great lesson is: interest is everything. In order to teach or learn, you have to be interested and engaged. Without those two, then the form of your instruction is irrelevant. This is the insight that led to things like Montessori schools, and more recently to the trend of Unschooling. 
    Contained here are a variety of essays covering thoughts on schooling and education from childhood to adult education, and how we can change things towards a more effective learning environment.

    This title contains two books, which are the following: 
    Book 1: Have you seen any signs from the universe? 
    Are things going your way or do you wish that things would be better? 
    These are some of the things people asking themselves when they want to work on their future. I hope you have asked yourself the same things, because the secret key is in the chapters of this book. The first part of this book will go over finding your soulmate. Once you have found him or her, be sure to fight to keep the relationship intact and don’t lose it. 
    Next, the book will talk about reasons that you might not be rich yet. Sure, there are the obvious ones, like the economy or your job, but there may be hidden factors that are blocking you from achieving the income level that you are after. 
    In the last section of this guide, you will be shown what kinds of signs the universe puts in your path. To ignore them, would be foolishness. Therefore, learn more about them, and you will have greater success in aligning your with the universe’s. 
    Book 2: How can you be happier? What does science say about it? 
    These and many other questions will be answered. There is a literal Q&A in this book about the law of attraction, joy, and other topics related to it. 
    Another topic in this book, is vibrations. As some of us know (maybe you do, too), the law of attraction is based on vibrations. Those vibrations are sent out and attract the things we want because of our thoughts and behavior. Raising our vibrations, therefore, would be crucial to accomplish our dreams. Here, you will learn how to do that, because it is definitely possible.

    Memes have been part of computer-assisted communication almost since the development of the first consumer browser (the "WorldWideWeb") in 1990. The Internet's ability to provide a public sphere for people to discuss the issues of the day and other topics of interest means that people can use the language of the Internet to express themselves in ways that would not be feasible in the real world. Those bits of content are native to the Internet that it feels obvious to want to understand why they are so compelling to tens of millions of people that use smartphones, tablets, computers, and other smart devices. 
      
    This book seeks to explain how memes influence societies and cultures beyond the confines of social networking services. It will begin by reviewing the fundamental definitions that frame discussions about memes in popular culture and academic research. There will be a connection between theoretical concepts about memes and the memetic content itself. Each chapter will be using one theorist's work to dig a little deeper into what makes memes effective modes of engagement between people online.

    So what is Punk Learning? It details the importance of why all students should be allowed complete control of their learning. In Never Mind the Inspectors Tait justifies why we need Punk Learning, explains the philosophy behind the box ticking lessons that teachers are advised to deliver to appease Ofsted and how we should not be doing anything because the 'inspectors will like it', but because it's the right thing to do in a 21st century classroom to get the best out of all our students. Tait helps you discover how to create Punk Learning, offers ideas on how teachers can creatively inspire students to become self-regulating Punk Learners that take complete control of their learning, making it relative and memorable, so that it matters to them. For anybody with an interest in learning, teaching and doing things differently!
