Mrs Noah's Song (Hardcover): Jackie Morris Mrs Noah's Song (Hardcover)
Jackie Morris; Illustrated by James Mayhew
R321 Discovery Miles 3 210 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Mrs Noah sang to the children when they woke in the morning. She sang as she worked in the garden, growing flowers and growing food. She sang lullabies at night to help the children sail into sleep "If you want to learn to sing," Mrs Noah tells the children, "first you must learn how to listen. Close your eyes, tight shut, and open your ears, wide, wide." At first the children hear only silence, then birds call, bees hum - and they hear the song of the garden. That night, Mr Noah makes a surprise present for the family so that they can all sleep together out in the garden. Then, at dawn there's the best surprise of all - the magical sound of the dawn chorus, led by the phoenix. On a joyful new day, Mrs Noah's birthday, there is birdsong in the garden and a future full of shared song for Mr and Mrs Noah and the children.

This edited volume explores a range of educational effects on student learning that resulted from a long-term study using a creative visual arts curriculum designed for mobile media (smartphones and tablets) and used in art classrooms. The curriculum, entitled MonCoin, a French phrase meaning My Corner, was initially designed and piloted in a Montreal area school for at-risk youth in 2012. Since then, it has been refined, deployed, and researched across secondary schools from a range of socio-cultural educational contexts. This book is comprised of contributions from researchers and practitioners associated with the MonCoin project who address critical insights gleaned from our study, such as the social context of teen mobile media use; curriculum theory and design; influences of identity on creative practice; and specific strategies for creative applications of mobile media in schools. The purpose of this edited book is to offer art education researchers and teachers innovative curriculum for mobile media and the networked conditions that influence identity, space, and practice with and through this ubiquitous technology.

Die Entdeckung der Gemeinsamkeit Dieses bemerkenswerte Buch, das die Evolution und die Archaologie des menschlichen Sozialverhaltens zusammenfuhrt, spannt den Bogen von den sozialen Gruppen der Steinzeit bis zu den modernen digitalen Netzwerken - und zeigt, dass wir heute in sozialen Welten leben, die sich tief in unserer evolutionaren Vergangenheit entwickelt haben. Sie werden in diesem Jahr kein wichtigeres Buch lesen. Es koennte uns ein bisschen weiser in unserer Selbsteinschatzung machen. Minerva Ein wunderbares Kompendium von Geschichte, Theorien und faszinierenden Experimenten, das Sie durchweg fesseln wird. BBC Focus In einem Stil geschrieben, der in so bewundernswerter Weise wissenschaftliches Fachvokabular und Soziologenjargon vermeidet, dass man nicht mehr als ein normales menschliches Gehirn braucht, um es zu lesen und zu verstehen ... eine sehr wertvolle Zusammenfassung unseres gegenwartigen Wissens uber die Evolution des Menschen und den moeglichen Ursprung und die Entwicklung [solcher] menschlicher Eigenschaften und Fahigkeiten ... Evolution, Denken, Kultur ist wie der Urknall: wahrscheinlich noch nicht die ganze Antwort, aber zweifellos schon die Erklarung einer grossen Zahl beobachtbarer Phanomene, und fur die Debatte und Weiterentwicklung unserer Vorstellungen uber die Ursprunge und die Evolution der menschlichen Kognition wird es auf Jahrzehnte hinaus als fuhrendes Modell dienen. Society of Antiquaries Newsletter Ein dramatischer Schlag gegen den "Steine und Knochen"-Ansatz der Archaologie. New Scientist Zugleich ein Triumph der Zusammenarbeit und eine packende Detektivgeschichte. New Statesman _____ Wann und wie entwickelte sich das Gehirn unserer fruhen Vorfahren zu einem menschlichen Gehirn? Wann und wie entstand in der Evolution unsere Fahigkeit, zu sprechen und Kunstwerke zu schaffen, zu musizieren und zu tanzen? Die Groesse der sozialen Gruppen, in denen Menschen heute leben - Angehoerige, Freunde, Bekannte -, betragt ungefahr 150 Personen. Diese "Dunbar-Zahl" liegt etwa dreifach hoeher als bei Menschenaffen und unseren altesten Vorfahren. Wie die Autoren dieses bahnbrechenden Buches darlegen, waren die fruhen Menschen im Kampf ums UEberleben gezwungen, sich zu immer groesseren Gruppen zusammenzuschliessen und zwischenmenschliche Beziehungen uber weite Distanzen aufrechtzuerhalten. Sie mussten "im Grossen denken", und dies wiederum trieb sowohl das Wachstum des menschlichen Gehirns als auch die Entstehung des menschlichen Geistes voran. Aus dem gegenseitigen Kraulen der Menschenaffen erwuchs die fur Menschen kennzeichnende sprachliche Zuwendung. Musik und Tanz verstarkten die Bindungen zwischen ihnen. Und die Beherrschung des Feuers verlangerte den Tag fur zwischenmenschliche Aktivitaten. Heute beherrschen soziale Netzwerke die Welt. Doch erstaunlicherweise entspricht die Zahl unserer Facebook- oder Twitter-Kontakte im Mittel der Dunbar-Zahl. Offenbar leben wir immer noch in einer sozialen Welt, die ihre Wurzeln tief in unserer Evolutionsvergangenheit hat - am Lagerfeuer, auf der Jagd und in den Graslandschaften Afrikas.

Advice on setting up a studio space for art and inquiry. Suggestions on documenting children's developing fluency with art media and its use in inquiry Inspiring photographs and ideas to show you how inquiry-based practices can work in any early childhood setting.
