The At Issue series includes a wide range of opinion on a single
controversial subject. Each volume includes primary and secondary
sources from a variety of perspectives -- eyewitnesses, scientific
journals, government officials and many others. Extensive
bibliographies and annotated lists of relevant organizations to
contact offer a gateway to future research.
Each anthology in the new Global Viewpoints series (which does
not duplicate any material in the Opposing Viewpoints series)
delivers contemporary perspectives on the featured issue -- with
the majority of the material reflecting stances of countries other
than the United States. Primary sources, including speeches and
government documents, join essays from international magazines and
news sources for a truly panoramic view. Helpful features include
an annotated table of contents, a world map and country index, a
bibliography and a subject index.

Are you a girl or young woman aged 13-18? If so, this book is for
you! Amanda Stent and Philip Lewis have written a gentle, friendly
and comprehensive introduction to computer science. Each chapter
covers one area of computer science and includes: examples of how
the computer science works; sidebars that contain historical notes
or ideas for you to explore; and biographies of women in computer
science. The last chapter covers questions that you might have
about becoming a computer scientist. We hope that after reading
this book you will want to join us in studying this uniquely
beautiful and practical subject.
In the beginning, there was the computer. And it was big. As big as
a room. Sometimes as big as a house. Early computers required teams
of white-coated scientists to keep them running, yet one of those
giant behemoths could not match the computing power of a single
microchip today. From the first massive computers to today's
nanotechnology, DIGITAL REVOLUTIONARIES offers a guided tour of the
history of computers and a celebration of the human ingenuity that
led the world from ENIAC to iMAC.
This latest spiral-bound edition of The Big6 Workshop Handbook
contains information that is current and essential to understanding
and implementing this premier information literacy model. The Big6
was first developed in 1987 as a simple, flexible, and broadly
applicable approach to teaching and learning essential information
literacy skills. At its most fundamental level, the Big6 is a
six-stage process model for information problem-solving and
decision-making. For over 20 years, the successful Big6 formula has
been constantly expanded and refined with the input of thousands of
teachers and many more students-in both public and private
education settings. Today's latest incarnation of The Big6 Workshop
Handbook includes the Super3 process; using the Big6 to teach
technology skills; integration with subject area curricula,
assessment, and standardized testing; connecting with national,
state, and school district standards; and micro and macro-level
planning. Everyone from classroom teachers and teacher librarians
to administrators and parents will find it invaluable. This latest,
Fourth Edition contains updated worksheets and training exercises,
a major revision of the section on the Super3, expanded lists of
resources, and a new chapter on integrating Big6 Skills with state
and national curriculum standards Includes valuable teaching
materials such as worksheets, sample skills by unit matrix,
services by unit matrix, Big6 curriculum annual timeline planner,
parents exercises, Big6 planning forms, and an evaluation form
Features a spiral-bound construction that makes this handbook even
easier to use and refer to than before
