Psychology - is a core text for all training psychology teachers,

this second edition considers psychology teaching across the 14-19
age range and has been updated in light of the latest research,
policy and practice in the field. Teaching Psychology 14-19 is an
essential text for all those engaged in enhancing their
understanding of teaching psychology in the secondary school.
An invaluable tool for health and social work students and
professionals who want to improve their practice through
collaborative research with patients, clients, and colleagues.
Throughout history, some of the most prominent contributors to
health and social sciences have been men and women comfortable with
both practice and academia. But today, research in health-related
fields is increasingly conducted in specialized settings by people
who are first and foremost researchers. Critics bemoan this loss of
practice-based research, long considered a vital part of the
contribution that doctors, nurses, public health workers, and
social workers can make both to their field and the communities in
which they work. Unfortunately, the explosion of new discoveries in
health-related fields, along with the exponential increase in the
amount of knowledge being produced and the growing demands of
practice, have caused both the production and application of
knowledge to become highly specialized and increasingly complex.
This has resulted in a widening gap between research and practice.
Recognizing the need for a guide to this type of research,
Practitioner Research for Social Work, Nursing, and the Health
Professions is a thoroughly reimagined version of a book originally
published in 2011 in the Netherlands. Aimed at American
practitioners, it is a highly practical guide for anyone in social
work, nursing, and other health care and social welfare settings.
Its seven-step Practitioner Research Method offers readers a
tried-and-true approach to conducting research in their own work
environments, and the authors use real-world examples to highlight
strategies for overcoming barriers and incorporating research.
While leading practitioners through each stage of the research
process, the authors explain in detail how to apply a variety of
field-tested tools and techniques. A unique and indispensable
resource for students in undergraduate and graduate research
courses, as well as for seasoned professionals who seek a practical
guide for developing and implementing their own research projects
in social work, nursing, and the health professions, this book is
also the first textbook to introduce the concept and practice of
practitioner research to an American audience.

Health and the environment are important learning areas in
science education and their significance is growing. Not only do
they have high social relevance, but they are also close to
students' interests and needs. They provide many opportunities to
unlock science with questions that are personally relevant to boys
and girls and that inspire them to engage in science.
This book contains a selection of papers from prominent
professionals in science, health and environmental education, who
reflect on science education, each from their specific point of
view. The core idea is to present well-founded perspectives on how
science education may benefit from challenges stemming from both
health and environmental education.
Specific reasons are discussed as to why these two areas are
particularly legitimized to challenge science education, and their
potential impact on a revision of science education is
evaluated.
A new pedagogy for science environment health that yields
interesting and relevant science education for students and
teachers, and addresses the grand challenges of this century: what
an attractive and rewarding project The book will motivate
teachers, teacher educators and science education researchers to
take part in this on-going project."
Introduced by newsreader, presenter, and Barnardo's president Natasha
Kaplinsky, Letters From Lockdown features 100+ letters from celebrity
names, COVID heroes, and a diverse range of members of the public, all
answering the question - 'What was lockdown like for you?'

Helen Mirren · Cressida Cowell · Mary Berry · Richard Branson · Peppa
Pig · Andy Murray · Helena Bonham Carter · Lenny Henry · Bruno Tonioli
· Romesh Ranganathan · The family of Captain Tom · Bear Grylls · Charly

for each copy of the book sold, to Barnardo's (registered charity in
England and Wales no. 216250), who do important work to protect and
support the UK's most vulnerable children, more in need now than ever.
The letter writers include doctors and nurses, care home staff and
vaccinators, train drivers and hairdressers, teachers and
environmentalists - people who have been on the frontline in tackling
the pandemic, or in trying to get the world back on its feet. Other
letters document the unforgettable lighter moments of the past year:
interviews crashed by children, TikTok triumphs and disasters, and
Goats joining Zoom meetings. Each offers their unique perspective on
the year everything changed.

The idea for the book came from Natasha Kaplinsky's children, Arlo and
Kika. They wrote an open letter, wanting to understand other people's
experiences of lockdown. Their question, 'What was lockdown like for
you?' is the prompt; the collection of letters in response form the
book. As we keep our fingers crossed that this summer will bring a safe
end to restrictions, this mixture of funny, sad, heart-warming,
surprising, heroic and honest experiences will mark the start of a
period of reflection.
