  If teachers want an inclusive, engaging classroom, they must learn their students' names. Sound advice, but rarely does it come with practical guidance—which is precisely what this book offers. Eschewing the random tips and mnemonic tricks that invariably fall short, Michelle D. Miller offers teachers a clear explanation of what is really going on when we learn a name, and a science-based approach for using this knowledge to pedagogical advantage. 
   
   
   
  Drawing on a background in the psychology of language and memory, Miller gives a lively overview of the surprising science of learning proper names, along with an account of why the practice is at once so difficult and yet so critical to effective teaching. She then sets out practical techniques for learning names. In her discussion of certain factors that can make learning names especially challenging, Miller pays particular attention to neurodivergence and the effects of aging on this form of memory. A Teacher's Guide to Learning Student Names lays out strategies for putting these techniques into practice, suggests technological aids and other useful resources, and explains how to make name learning a core aspect of one's teaching practice. 
   
   
   
  This concise guide provides teachers of all disciplines and levels an invaluable tool for creating a welcoming and productive learning environment.

  How We Think is a seminal work by the American philosopher and educator John Dewey, first published in 1910. The book explores the process of human thought and inquiry, examining how we develop ideas and knowledge, and how we use critical thinking and problem-solving to make sense of the world around us. 
  Dewey's approach emphasizes the importance of experience and reflection in the process of learning and thought. He argues that our thinking is influenced by our past experiences and that we must reflect on those experiences in order to form new ideas and perspectives. He also advocates for a scientific approach to inquiry, emphasizing the importance of observation, experimentation, and testing in the development of knowledge. 
  In How We Think, Dewey also introduces his ideas on experimentalism and pragmatism, arguing that knowledge must be grounded in experience and that theories and ideas must be tested through practical application. He discusses the role of logic and critical thinking in this process, and the importance of education in fostering these skills. 
  How We Think is a groundbreaking work in the fields of philosophy, education, and psychology, and remains relevant today for its insights into the nature of human thought and learning

  Making Mental Might - How to...

  Doctor Bernard Patten―erstwhile Memory Fellow of the New York Academy of Medicine, founder of the first memory clinic at the Neurological Institute of New York, and author of scientific papers on memory therapy and memory problems―wants to help you to a better mind, a better memory, and, consequently, a better life. 
  Memory degradation happens to everyone. Even people in good health forget where they park their cars or leave their reading glasses. Some draw a blank entering their PIN. Is the stove off? Cat fed? Door locked? Did you take your medication? Not sure? How come? These memory problems only get worse as we get older unless we employ mental exercises to improve memory now. 
  Mountains of scientific research prove that mental exercise benefits the brain as much as physical exercise benefits the body. Mental gymnastics boosts brainpower, augments memory, and (in some cases) actually increases brain size. It can help prevent dementia, mental decline, and the much-feared Alzheimer's disease. 
  Making Mental Might does not aim to increase your IQ or show you how to get smarter. It offers the proper mental training to look, sound, and perform worlds better. These techniques have helped hundreds of students at Rice University's School of Continuing Studies under Doctor Patten improve their working memory. They can do the same for you.
