Maison d'édition: DigiCat

Synopsis

In "Primer of Ohio Archaeology: The Mound Builders and the Indians," H. C. Shetrone provides an incisive exploration of the rich archaeological heritage of Ohio, focusing primarily on the enigmatic Mound Builders and Indigenous peoples. The text is characterized by Shetrone's meticulous research and clear, engaging prose, which serve to make complex archaeological findings accessible to both scholars and the general public. Drawing from both historical accounts and field studies, shetrone places the Mound Builder civilization within a broader context of pre-Columbian America, illuminating their cultural practices, societal structures, and connection to the land through the lens of artifact analysis and ethnographic parallels. H. C. Shetrone, an esteemed archaeologist and curator, spent much of his career dedicated to the study of ancient Ohio cultures. His extensive fieldwork and involvement in various archaeological excavations provided him with firsthand insights into the material remains of these civilizations, instilling in him a deep appreciation for Ohio's prehistoric legacy. Shetrone's scholarly background, along with his passion for educating others about the past, culminates in this comprehensive narrative that bridges archaeological evidence with historical significance. I highly recommend "Primer of Ohio Archaeology" to enthusiasts of American history and archaeology alike. It serves not only as a foundational text for understanding Ohio's prehistory but also as an engaging introduction for anyone interested in the complexities of ancient Native American cultures. Shetrone's work is a significant contribution to the field and a treasure trove of knowledge for future generations.

Praxis Tacticum - The Art...

Colonel Charles S. Oliviero

Pundits have long predicted the end of conventional warfare but for the foreseeable future, 
it is here to stay. Counterinsurgency, guerrilla warfare, terrorism, peace enforcement, policing. 
 
 
 
All these forms, like conventional warfare, are as old as mankind. Modern militaries claim to be 
professional bodies, responsible for the education, control, and discipline of their members. But at least one aspect of this claim is poorly executed: tactics are not taught to junior leaders, which is why this guide is essential for all junior leaders, officers, and NCOs alike. 
 
 
 
There is a military adage that there is no teacher like the enemy. True; but the wise commander 
prepares to meet that enemy and become their teacher instead. This is your essential study guide.

Powerful Questioning -...

Michael Chiles

Foreword by John Hattie.
Questioning is a staple feature of a teacher's toolkit across all phases of education. Classrooms are awash with explanation, modelling and feedback, but of all the pedagogical strategies at a teacher's disposal, questioning is one of the most important. It is the heartbeat of a classroom. While the art of asking a question seems relatively straightforward, to what extent do teachers consider the types of questions they're using? Are the questions they ask students actually helping to support learning? InPowerful Questioning,Michael Chiles delves into the complexity of asking questions and how best to use this pedagogical tool as a powerful springboard to support learning in the classroom.
Teachers are described by many as 'professional question-askers' and the use of questioning in the teaching and learning process dates back to one of the most influential users and developers of questions, the Greek philosopher Socrates. Socrates believed that by asking questions we encourage reflection, and that their use is most effective when we create a continual loop of dialogue between the asker and the receiver, to allow movement from surface to deeper level thinking.Powerful Questioningtakes inspiration from this, providing original theory that relates back to the historical use of questioning in the classroom throughout.
Offering a fresh perspective on how questioning can be engineered to support effective learning,Powerful Questioningexamines the reasons behind the questions we ask and reveals the power of asking the right questions, in the right way, at the right time. It details a set of core principles, recommendations and classroom-based practical examples that can be used to implement powerful questioning both in the classroom and wider school.
Michael's aim is to help teachers become research-informed on the theories around the use of questioning in the classroom, whilst also providing a wide range of practical classroom-based strategies. Readers will take away specific examples from a broad range of case studies in which teachers at different phases of education (from Key Stages one to five) share how they use questioning to improve learning and retention.
Essential reading for all teachers and school leaders.
