In the Teachers' Standards it states that all teachers must demonstrate an understanding of, and take responsibility for, promoting high standards of literacy, articulacy, and the correct use of standard English, whatever the teacher's specialist subject. In The Secret of Literacy, David Didau inspires teachers to embrace the challenge of improving students' life chances through improving their literacy.

    A collection of the renowned legal scholar’s most important writings: “Refreshingly straightforward . . . with vigorous argumentation” (The Law and Politics Book Review).    The author of The Irony of Free Speech and Liberalism Divided, Owen Fiss has written some of the most cited legal studies of the twentieth century. This volume collects his most influential work on procedure, adjudication and public reason. Introduced by the author, it also includes contextual introductions for each piece.      Fiss surveys the legal terrain between the landmark cases of Brown v. Board of Education and Bush v. Gore to reclaim the legal legacy of the Civil Rights Movement. He argues forcefully for a vision of judges as instruments of public reason and of the courts as a means of shaping society in the image of the Constitution.  In building his argument, Fiss attends to topics as diverse as the use of the injunction to restructure social institutions; how law and economics have misunderstood the role of the judge; why the movement seeking alternatives to adjudication fails to serve the public interest; and why Bush v. Gore was not the constitutional crisis some would have us believe. In so doing, Fiss reveals a vision of adjudication that vindicates the public reason on which Brown v. Board of Education was founded

    Summary of Chris Anderson's TED Talks is a comprehensive handbook for learning the now-famous TED talk style. TED is a world-renowned conference series founded by Ricky Wurman and Harry Marks in 1984. The book provides tips, tricks, and practical advice to readers who wish to become proficient in delivering effective speeches. The skills described in the book can be applied to a work presentation in a small conference room or a lecture in front of thousands of people. 
    Even though many Americans fear public speaking, the art of giving a great speech is just another skill that can be learned. There is not a single, set style for delivering a great speech. Speakers must find the style, preparation method, and delivery that works best for them.
