Sinossi

Self-Testing Techniques explores how self-testing and quizzing boost memory and learning through cognitive science and learning psychology. It reveals that actively retrieving information strengthens memory and combats forgetting, a concept known as the testing effect. The book highlights the importance of spaced repetition, where revisiting material at increasing intervals significantly improves long-term retention, akin to gradually reinforcing a mental pathway. This book is unique as it bridges theory and practice, guiding readers on designing effective quizzes and integrating self-testing into study routines. It progresses from introducing core cognitive principles like desirable difficulties to exploring various self-testing methods, such as flashcards and practice questions, and demonstrates how these techniques can be applied in diverse learning contexts. Ultimately, consistent self-testing enhances academic performance and builds confidence, making it an invaluable resource for students and educators alike.

The Leading Ladies at The School

Andi Sulistiadi

The characteristics of school leaders who are appointed merely on the instructions of their superiors differ significantly from those of principals who enter the profession out of a deep sense of calling. Leaders appointed by directive often carry out their responsibilities as an obligation or administrative duty, focusing primarily on compliance and fulfilling external expectations. Their authority is derived from positional power rather than intrinsic motivation. In contrast, school principals who assume their role on the basis of personal calling demonstrate a greater sense of commitment, passion, and responsibility for the growth of both students and teachers. Their leadership is not confined to administrative functions but extends to fostering a vision, building a positive culture, and inspiring others. The difference becomes evident in the way they make decisions, manage challenges, and build relationships within the school community. Ultimately, this divergence can be traced back to their initial motivations: while one group enters education out of necessity or appointment, the other chooses the path because of a genuine dedication to the educational mission. The women in this book remind us that leadership is not about power, it is not about status,  it is about service, it is about the courage to balance logic with compassion. Through their vision, education is transformed.

The Cholera Years - The United...

Charles E. Rosenberg

Cholera was the classic epidemic disease of the nineteenth century, as the plague had been for the fourteenth. Its defeat was a reflection not only of progress in medical knowledge but of enduring changes in American social thought. Rosenberg has focused his study on New York City, the most highly developed center of this new society. Carefully documented, full of descriptive detail, yet written with an urgent sense of the drama of the epidemic years, this narrative is as absorbing for general audiences as it is for the medical historian. In a new Afterword, Rosenberg discusses changes in historical method and concerns since the original publication of The Cholera Years.

“A major work of interpretation of medical and social thought . . . this volume is also to be commended for its skillful, absorbing presentation of the background and the effects of this dread disease.”—I.B. Cohen, New York Times

”The Cholera Years is a masterful analysis of the moral and social interest attached to epidemic disease, providing generally applicable insights into how the connections between social change, changes in knowledge and changes in technical practice may be conceived.”—Steven Shapin, Times Literary Supplement

”In a way that is all too rarely done, Rosenberg has skillfully interwoven medical, social, and intellectual history to show how medicine and society interacted and changed during the 19th century. The history of medicine here takes its rightful place in the tapestry of human history.”—John B. Blake, Science
