  Never Stop Asking - Teaching...

  Students and teachers alike face a dilemma: Why think deeply when we can just take a shortcut by googling something? Why read an article when we can learn from a social media headline? If, as educators, we want to encourage our students to value thoughtfulness and to embrace the effort it takes to reach deep understandings, we must model that behavior ourselves. In Never Stop Asking, author Dr. Nathan Lang-Raad shows K-12 teachers how human brains like to take mental shortcuts, known as heuristics, that allow the brain to save energy and perform more efficiently. These heuristics, however, can lead to illogical thinking, cognitive biases, and fallacies that can hinder critical thinking. 
   
   
   
  With this teacher's must-have guide, you'll: learn about common psychological shortcuts and biases that hinder students and teachers alike; discover the logic and the science behind critical thinking and why it leads to better outcomes; gain strategies to bring critical thinking into the classroom and help students build patience, discipline, and skill; and acknowledge and embrace the digital age in your teaching—without falling victim to its downsides. 
   
   
   
  This is an engaging and important book for K-12 teachers and instructional coaches. Teacher training programs can also be enhanced by the practical wisdom and easy-to-implement strategies included.

  The Radical Singularity - Essay...

  Mane Tatulyan

  All the energies of our civilisation are destined to the construction of a new artifical world, a totally technological world in which the human being is one more cog in the cybernetic system. This world is totally exposed, programmed, quantified, technical, artificial, and, above all, autonomous.
  
  This autonomous world will be able to function without us. This world is an objective world that will have neither subjectivity nor meaning. But while all our efforts are projected towards the horizon of technological singularity, the same language reminds us that there is another meaning of the word singularity. The Radical Singularity is an original project about human singularity in the era of technological singularity. The work addresses, in a unique, extreme, and even ironic way, the mutation from modern humanism to posmodern posthumanism, revealing the light of Reason between the lines. What is singular -along with human Reason- is the resistance to globalisation, to homogenisation, to the terror of the same, to automation, to technological singularity, and so on.
  
  This work remind us that, even when things become so violently homogeneous, the radicalism of thought will appear. The world is dialectical, and we cannot escape the logic of the world, of which its representation is our Reason. Due to its radical singularity, human Reason always has the last word.

  Rise and Fall of the Banate of...

  Much has been written about Western intervention during the breakup of Yugoslavia, and whether it made matters worse, prevented worse atrocities, or was simply ineffective. In early 1992, however, what was clear was that Europe was hopelessly divided over the best course of action to take towards Yugoslavia, and after several years of fighting, the Bosnian War was one of the most violent conflagrations in Europe since the end of World War II.  
  	That war had been the byproduct of centuries of tensions in the Balkans, and an attempt in the wake of World War I to redraw the political boundaries of Europe and the Middle East. That included forming the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, initially known as the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, a particularly fragile enterprise, and there was almost constant tension between the majority Serbs and the other Yugoslav nationalities, especially the Croats. As a result, the Kingdom was a land of political assassinations, underground terrorist organizations, and ethnic animosities.  
  Depending on the source, many authors have focused on different catalysts for Yugoslavia’s demise, but Vesna Drapac may have succinctly summed the situation up when he wrote that by the end, the state “lacked a reason to exist.” There is certainly something in this sentiment, but the disintegration came at an enormous cost. 
  	Given what happened in Yugoslavia, it should be little surprise that Bosnia did not have its fully-established borders until the 19th century, and even in modern times, in many respects the people distinguished and defined Bosnia as a polity more than its shifting borders, and regardless of whether Bosnia operated as an independent state or kingdom. It was during the Middle Ages that Bosnia’s culture and ethnic makeup truly began to coalesce, despite the politically rocky nature of the era in the Balkans.
