Sinopsis

In "Native Races and the War," Josephine Elizabeth Grey Butler presents a compelling analysis of the socio-political dynamics surrounding indigenous populations during times of armed conflict. Through a meticulous examination of historical events and the interactions between native races and colonial powers, Butler's literary style juxtaposes eloquent prose with rigorous scholarship. The book situates itself within the broader discourse on imperialism and decolonization, exploring the complex identities and resilience of indigenous communities amid warfare, ultimately revealing the multifaceted impacts of conflict on their cultures and societies. Josephine Elizabeth Grey Butler, a prominent advocate for social justice and indigenous rights in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, draws from her extensive field research and personal experiences to illuminate the struggles faced by native races. Her background as a key figure in the Women's Social and Political Union and her dedication to social reform profoundly influenced her perspective, enabling her to combine humanitarian concerns with scholarly rigor. Butler's firsthand encounters with indigenous peoples provide a rich contextual foundation for her analysis, showcasing her commitment to amplifying marginalized voices. "Native Races and the War" is an essential read for scholars, students, and anyone interested in understanding the nuanced relationship between colonialism and warfare. Butler's eloquent exploration not only offers historical insight but also serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring legacies of conflict in indigenous societies. This thought-provoking work invites readers to engage critically with the past and reflects on the necessity of confronting historical injustices.

    Leading maths at any school is a unique challenge and comes with pressures not experienced in many other subject areas. The relatively abstract nature of the subject content, combined with the contrasting societal and parental attitudes to mathematics, can complicate communication and stifle progress. Most pupils and parents will recognise the importance of maths but many feel it's perfectly acceptable to be "no good" at it. Leading maths in schools is about managing these contradictions and getting the very best out of every teacher and pupil.
    Offering a fresh perspective and practical strategies for maths teachers and leaders at any level, Leading Mathsexplores how to make the most of a maths leadership role and manage the daily pressures and demands that come with it. Backed up by specific examples from fifteen years of experience leading maths, Peter Mattock goes on to examine the more long-term, strategic view of maths leadership, including how leaders can work with their teams to develop high quality mathematics teaching and learning for all pupils.
    The book covers day-to-day issues that arise when leading maths, in particular results and accountability, as well as difficult situations more generally. It offers useful takeaways at the end of each chapter, with a summary of key points and advice from the chapter. Leading Maths explores how to manage an inspection, developing improvement plans and the appraisal process, before touching on taking maths leadership beyond one specific school and into system leadership.
    In addition to Peter's insight, Leading Maths also contains contributions from other experienced maths practitioners, including Becky Lawrence, Jemma Sherwood, Rhiannon Rainbow and Dave Tushingham. Becky examines some of the specific approaches to leading primary maths, whilst Jemma does the same from her perspective as a maths lead across a large multi-academy trust. Rhiannon and Dave then go on to discuss how to manage significant change from their experience of adapting curriculum and CPD during the COVID pandemic - including the beginnings of their (now famous) book club.
    An essential guide for current, new, or aspiring maths leaders.

    Love Our Cities operates from a simple idea: come alongside those who want to make a difference in their cities so they can come alongside individuals in their communities to make things better.  Founding members of the nonprofit organization Love Our Cities, Jeff Pishney and Eric Jung have seen how a city-wide volunteer day can catalyze community improvement—by engaging individuals with the city they inhabit. Each chapter of Love Our Cities addresses their method behind the madness, why it works, and the practical next steps that anyone can use to kick off city-wide volunteer efforts.  Jeff Pishney and Eric Jung understand that the best way to support a community is to meet the specific needs of that area. By using their past experiences investing in Modesto and other cities, they provide a clear, actionable approach to enact city-wide change. Their volunteer days have been uniquely successful in connecting ongoing initiatives, building networks, and growing community buy-in for programs and organizations already on the ground.  Their message in Love Our Cities is broken into four parts:  Part One depicts their journey from the initial Love Modesto efforts in 2009 to the 100-some cities participating in their Love Our Cities network in 2020  Part Two explains at the elements that are necessary to know prior to any community engagement, in order to create a solid foundation for long-term success  Part Three examines the "nuts and bolts" of running a city-wide volunteer day  Part Four takes it to the next level—describing how successful city-wide volunteer days have changed the game and outlining what a year-round city movement might look like  By shining a spotlight on the cities they've partnered with over the years, Jeff Pishney and Eric Jung hope that their community-minded approach in Love Our Cities encourages readers to dream about their own city's potential—and how they can make a difference.
