Talk less Teach more! A nonverbal recipe book for talked-out teachers! - 1684 tips and techniques to preserve your voice and your nerves in the classroom

Pearl Nitsche, Derrick Nitsche

Sinopsis

This book is a reference work where teachers can quickly find ideas to deal with the challenges they face daily in their classrooms. It is a "recipe book" with tried and true solutions, for example, for getting a class's attention at the beginning of or during the lesson, getting chatting pupils and groups back on task, integrating outsiders into the group, dealing with disturbances and emotional outbursts and establishing discussion guidelines and classroom procedures. It consists of lists. Lists of simple ideas on, for example, how to deal with pupils who can't sit still, kids who always want to be first and students who get so carried away that they call out the answers rather than raising their hands.

It is a gold mine of ideas and it represents many years of classroom experience -ours and that of the participants in our seminars. There's lots of information in it for teachers in elementary, secondary and -with a bit of flexibility and a creative mind- in adult and tertiary education as well. This collection of tips, rituals, nonverbal signals, examples of short verbal input, symbols, pictures and sophisticated teaching techniques will help you to manage the classroom successfully while creating a positive and harmonious atmosphere in which learning can thrive and grow. You will save your voice and spare your nerves and you will create an atmosphere where you can do what you became a teacher to do - to teach!

This book is a practical supplement to the first book of the "Talk less. Teach more!" series:
"Nonverbal Classroom Management. Group strategies that work."

The Fourth Education Revolution...

Anthony Seldon, Oladimeji...

Sir Anthony Seldon, the prominent political biographer and leading educationalist, addresses one of the high-stakes issues that will influence our future: the role of artificial intelligence and its impact on education.
The use of AI promises an altogether new way of educating, offering learners from all backgrounds widespread access to personalised tuition and digital educational materials from across the world. Educational institutions across the world have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and many have migrated, at least temporarily, to online platforms. The debate about how to deliver knowledge has never been more relevant.
Many countries have an excellent education system with their schools and universities – excellent, but tailored to the twentieth century. The mass teaching methods of the third revolution era have failed to conquer enduring problems of inequity and lack of individualised learning. AI is disrupting the way we live, work and interact with the environment, and we cannot stop it changing our schools and universities. But we have time – albeit not for long – to shape this revolution. It will not be a panacea, and if we are not quick, it will start to replace what makes us human – being creative, having beliefs, and loving others.
This book, presented in considerably updated and extended second edition, is a call to educators everywhere to open their eyes to what is coming. If we do so, then the future will be shaped by us for the common interests of humanity – but if we don’t, then it will be imposed, and we will all lose.
‘This book has the potential to impel change in our education system which is so badly in need of reform. The new “reconsidered” version in the wake of the COVID pandemic serves to emphasize even more strongly the role AI can play in education and how its use is being accelerated.’ Lord Clement-Jones CBE

Sit Stay Heal - What Dogs Can...

Renee Alsarraf

“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.

Goodbye Anxiety Hello Happiness...

Gavin Moore

Almost one factor in our lives causes us pain or overwhelming emotions. One such factor
can be hard to determine and can be seen as inconceivable, among many others. These
emotions may be hard to identify, harder to grasp, and could lead to various unfavorable
events in our lives. Unless they are recognized for the problems they cause, and
appropriate care is offered as soon as they are conceived.
Anxiety, also termed by the common notion of concern, is one such thing in our lives that
affects us, daily or temporarily. It is that one factor that people need to be cautious of and
should make no fault in determining the cause of. The solutions that come forth after
conceiving the cause are also to be given crucial importance.
Some common questions that many people wonder: What is anxiety? What is the cure for
anxiety? Are there any symptoms to determine it? There are a lot of questions, but there
appear to be fewer solutions. Although these solutions can be determined over time and
implemented in our daily lives, doing so requires perseverance. The constant motivation
and drive are what makes it seem real in the end, but knowing the solutions that can aid
when implemented is one vital step towards happiness.
“Goodbye Anxiety, Hello Happiness” helps determine the different causes of anxiety in its
various forms, comparing it to other well-known notions and seeking out the differences.
It also aims at posing the necessary solutions to combat anxiety using the right practical
knowledge and methods.
