When Vince Lombardi took the job of coaching the Green Bay Packers
in 1959, he inherited a team that had gone from legendary to
laughing stock. They hadn't fielded a winning team in over a decade
and had gone 1-10-1 in the 1958 season despite having seven future
Hall of Famers on the team. They were a team accustomed to losing
and in desperate need of a turnaround. """That First Season"
chronicles that turnaround at the hands of Lombardi, himself
serving as a head coach for the first time. The Packers were a team
of talented underachievers more used to lax coaching and late
nights than grueling practices and curfews. Lombardi's no-bull
coaching style helped hammer them into winners who operated with
machine-like precision. Every football fan knows that the Packers
under Lombardi were champions, but "That First Season" shows how he
did it, bringing readers the inside story of a sports
dynasty.
Over the last decade, many local students have preferred to study
overseas. This has caused governments to announce the creation of
programs and developments in the higher education sector to upgrade
South-East Asia to a leading education hub. Moreover, many
governments declared that they would work on the insurance of
learning to increase the quality of the degrees and the teaching
itself. This has led many to question the results of these
declarations. Higher Education Challenges in South-East Asia
provides an overview of what has been happening over the last ten
years in higher education in South-East Asia. It also works to
solve the challenges in modern education such as the impacts of
digitalization, globalization, and Generation Y and Z learning
styles. Covering topics that include globalization, educational
technologies, and comparative teaching, this book impacts academic
institutions, policymakers, government officials, university and
college administrators and leaders, academicians, researchers, and
students.
