Sinopsis

Active Recall Methods explores the science-backed technique of active recall, a powerful tool for memory improvement and effective learning. Rather than passively rereading, active recall involves actively retrieving information, strengthening memory encoding and promoting long-term retention. This book argues that active recall is superior to passive review, challenging traditional study habits and offering a transformative approach to learning. For example, studies show that self-testing, a form of active recall, significantly boosts test scores compared to simply rereading notes.

 
The book progresses systematically, beginning with the core principles of active recall and contrasting it with other learning methods. It then delves into the cognitive science behind this method, explaining how retrieval strengthens memory traces. Individual chapters are dedicated to practical techniques like spaced repetition and the Feynman Technique. This approach ensures readers not only understand the theory but also gain actionable strategies for immediate implementation in academic or professional settings, emphasizing personalized approaches to cater to diverse learning styles.

 
By offering a blend of theoretical foundations and practical strategies, Active Recall Methods provides a unique and valuable resource for students, educators, and lifelong learners. The book draws from cognitive science and educational research, analyzing experiments and incorporating insights from neuroscience. It connects to fields like educational psychology and instructional design, presenting complex concepts in an accessible manner while maintaining an academic tone.

    Now in its 3rd edition, Better Learning Through Structured Teaching is the definitive guide to the gradual release of responsibility—an instructional framework any teacher can use to help students to be more successful and self-directed learners. 
     
    To gradually release responsibility is to equip students with what they need to master content and develop new competencies. On a day-to-day basis, it means delivering lessons intentionally structured to incorporate four interrelated phases: 
    Focused Instruction ("I do it") that sets students up for cognitive apprenticeship by establishing lesson purpose, modeling strategies and skills, and sharing information and insight.Guided Instruction ("We do it together") that incorporates targeted prompts, cues, and questions to scaffold understanding.Collaborative Learning ("You do it together") that allows students to consolidate and extend understanding through accountable group tasks built on discussion and cooperative problem-solving.Independent Learning ("You do it alone") that provides students opportunities to practice and apply the skills and knowledge they've acquired to create authentic products and ask new questions. 
     
    Authors Douglas Fisher and Nancy Frey detail the components of each phase, sharing proven strategies and real-life examples. You'll find a variety of useful tips for classroom implementation, along with new guidance on teacher credibility, social-emotional learning, and embedding assessment throughout all four phases. No matter what grade level or subject you teach, Better Learning Through Structured Teaching: A Framework for the Gradual Release of Responsibility is an essential resource for improving your practice and empowering your students.

    “Written with grace and emotional honesty, Sit, Stay, Heal will live with you long after the last page.”— John Grogan, bestselling author of Marley & Me 
    For more than two decades, esteemed veterinary oncologist Dr. Renee Alsarraf treated cancer in her beloved canine patients. Then, at age fifty-one, she was diagnosed with cancer herself. 
    Sit, Stay, Heal: What Dogs Can Teach Us About Living Well is Dr. Renee’s unforgettable testament to the extraordinary healing nature of dogs. Every day in her veterinary practice, she bears witness to the undeniable bond between pets and their people. However, while we are busy teaching them to “sit” and “stay,” they have their own, more profound, lessons to impart. In Sit, Stay, Heal, we meet Cosmo, the golden retriever who arrives at Renee’s office just before his fourteenth family vacation to the beach; Daisy, the cocker spaniel, an emotional support dog for a special needs child; and Franny, the bloodhound, a police dog who wasn’t ready to retire from the force. Then there’s Dr. Renee’s own dog Newtie, who falls ill when she needs him most. 
    Our dogs are wise in ways humans are not. For Dr. Renee, it was her patients—those furry, four-legged, slobbering animals—who seemed to uniquely understand her difficult journey and who showed her the true power of positivity and unconditional love. Full of life lessons and healing metaphors, perfect dogs and their imperfect humans, Sit, Stay, Heal is a captivating, heartwarming story for dog lovers far and wide.

    “Whatever It Is I’m Against It”...

    In "Whatever It Is, I'm Against It," president emeritus of Macalester College Brian Rosenberg draws on decades of higher education experience to expose the entrenched structures, practices, and cultures that inhibit meaningful postsecondary reform, even as institutions face serious challenges to their financial and educational models. The book pinpoints factors that hinder the ability of United States colleges and universities to be creative and entrepreneurial amid calls to improve affordability, access, and equity for students. 
     
     
     
    Rosenberg illustrates internal and external dynamics that impede institutional evolution. Pressures such as declining enrollment, escalating costs, and an oversupply of PhDs in academia have long signaled a grave need for reform within a profession that lacks organizational flexibility, depends greatly on reputation and ranking, and retains traditions, from the academic calendar to grading systems, that have remained essentially the same for decades. 
     
     
     
    Rosenberg looks outside the United States system to find possible antidotes in innovative higher education models such as student-centered and experiential learning approaches. This thought-provoking work offers ample evidence for presidents, chancellors, deans, provosts, and faculty to consider as they plan to achieve institutional transformation.

    "One of the ten best higher education books of 2025.” – Forbes 
    In this educational leadership book, consultant and speaker Elliot Felix challenges college and university administration to focus and differentiate their institution, break down silos, and work better together to enable college student success. 
    "An indispensable management guide for university leaders who want to better support their students through cutting-edge best practices." —Timothy Renick, Executive Director, National Institute for Student Success at Georgia State University 
    Too many of today's colleges and universities are defined by their separations: teaching and research, student affairs and academic affairs, courses and careers, academia and industry, online and on-campus. The list goes on. 
    But demographic shifts, technological breakthroughs, economic upheaval, and new ways of learning and working mean that higher education must change. Instead of separations, we need connected colleges where all students feel a sense of belonging, courses lead to rewarding careers, students have the support to succeed, and faculty, staff, and administration work together to make this happen. 
    In this strategic planning book for higher education leaders, you will learn to get comfortable with disrupting higher education. Bust silos internally. Forge partnerships externally. Make bold decisions. See differentiation as destiny, not demographics. Get as good at sunsetting programs and services as you are at starting them. 
    Drawing from Elliot Felix's background in design innovation and experience working with more than one hundred colleges and universities, this management and leadership book for college administrators will challenge leaders with breakthrough ideas, inspiring success stories, and practical tactics. 
    The Connected College is your encouraging, evidence-based playbook for busting silos so they can succeed.
