    We don't have a teaching problem in our schools; we have a learning problem.Today, we understand quality teaching better than ever. We have skilful teachers doing a great job in our classrooms. But when we have quality teaching and are still not achieving the results we're looking for, it's a sign that we don't have a teaching problem. What we have is a learning problem.Ultimately, learning is not the product of teaching, it is the product of the activity of learners. Too many of our students are passive learners who avoide challenges, failt ot act on feedback, or who waste effort instead of investing in it. To prepare students to not only succeed in school but also to have the agency they need to succeed in life, we must lead them to become skilful learners. In his fifth book, James Anderson unveils the concept of Learnership, which transforms learning from an act to an art. Within this book, you will learn how to:- evaluate the current level of learnership in your school using the Learnership Diagnostic tool- foster a culture of growth that sets students up for success in both school and life- apply the Mindset Continuum to nurture a growth mindset in your students- harness deep insights into the pivotal role of challenges, Habits of Mind, mistakes, feedback and effort in cultivating Learnershipdrive a Learnership program in your school. If you are ready to show your learners how to get more out of every learning situation, and get better at getting better, it's time to embrace Learnership.

    Step into the arcane world of high magic with The Magus, one of the most influential grimoires of the 19th century. In Book 1, occultist Francis Barrett assembles a sweeping synthesis of mystical traditions—drawing from Agrippa, Paracelsus, and ancient Hermeticism—to present a comprehensive foundation of ceremonial magic. 
    This volume explores the hidden forces of nature, the elements, the spirits of the cosmos, planetary intelligences, and the magical correspondences that bind all things together. It serves as a masterclass in the theory and practice of magic, alchemy, astrology, and the Kabbalah. 
    Whether you're a student of the esoteric arts or a seeker of forbidden knowledge, The Magus offers a rare glimpse into the roots of Western occultism—a system meant not only to influence the material world but to awaken the latent powers within the self. 
    Dare to listen—and unlock the secrets once reserved for initiates.

    "Trust Shattered: Cases of Government Betrayal" is a meticulously researched, compelling narrative that unravels the complex tapestry of government actions and their profound impact on individual rights and societal trust. Spanning three distinct parts - Betrayed Bodies, Betrayed Liberty, and Betrayed Estates - this book delves into historical and contemporary instances where government intervention has overstepped, leading to significant ramifications on life, liberty, and property.Part 1, "Betrayed Bodies," exposes medical and scientific missteps and overreaches by the government. From the Tuskegee Syphilis Study to the FDA's drug revocations, it reveals how health policies and decisions have sometimes led to distrust and harm, rather than protection and healing.Part 2, "Betrayed Liberty," focuses on cases where the government’s actions have infringed upon civil liberties. It revisits moments like the McCarthy era, the Patriot Act, and the COVID-19 pandemic, highlighting how fear and crisis have been catalysts for the erosion of freedoms historically championed by democratic societies.Part 3, "Betrayed Estates," shifts the focus to property rights. It examines eminent domain, zoning laws, intellectual property, and taxation policies, demonstrating how these can sometimes betray the very essence of ownership and economic freedom.Peter Serefine masterfully intertwines historical contexts with contemporary relevance, offering a critical perspective on government actions. Each chapter is not only a recount of events but also an analysis of their ethical, legal, and societal implications. The book questions the delicate balance between public good and individual rights, scrutinizing the justifications and consequences of government policies."Trust Shattered" challenges readers to ponder the role of government in their lives. It brings to light the precarious balance between safeguarding citizens and respecting their autonomy. The book’s in-depth examination
