A hilarious illustrated young fiction series starring Martin Kennedy - the tidiest boy in the world's tidiest town - from witty duo Adam Wallace and James Hart.
Martin is so neat and clean that he has never ever farted ... UNTIL NOW! A freak accident dooms Martin to a dreadful destiny of: baked beans and bottom blowouts. With the help of his grand fart master, can Martin learn to harness the power of his new skill and use it to save the day?
Fantastically fun illustrations throughout for fans of Captain Underpants, The Bad Guys and WeirDo. Perfect for beginner readers (and those who love baked beans!)
Earth Day celebrates our beautiful planet and calls us to act on
its behalf. Some people spend the day planting flowers or trees.
Others organize neighbourhood clean-ups, go on nature walks or make
recycled crafts. Readers will discover how a shared holiday can
have multiple traditions and be celebrated in all sorts of ways.
The terrorist attacks in the USA and UK on 9/11 and 7/7, and
subsequent media coverage, have resulted in a heightened awareness
of extremists and terrorists. Should educators be exploring
terrorism and extremism within their classrooms? If so, what should
they be teaching, and how? Dianne Gereluk draws together the
diverging opinions surrounding these debates, exploring and
critiquing the justifications used for why these issues should be
addressed in schools. She goes on to consider the ways in which
educators should teach these topics, providing practical
suggestions. Education, Extremism and Terrorism is essential
reading for undergraduate and postgraduate education students
looking to engage with the philosophical, sociological and
political issues that are central to this debate.
A volume in Research Methods in Educational TechnologySeries Editor
Walter F. Heinecke, University of VirginiaDespite technology's
presence in virtually every public school, its documented
familiarity and use byyouth outside of school, and the wealth of
resources it provides for teaching social studies, there has
beenrelatively little empirical research on its effectiveness for
the teaching and learning of social studies. In aneffort to begin
to fill this gap in research literature, this book focuses on
research on technology in socialstudies education. The objectives
of this volume are threefold: to describe research frameworks,
provideexamples of empirical research, and chart a course for
future research endeavors. Accordingly, the volumeis divided into
three overarching sections: research constructs and contexts,
research reports, and researchreviews.The need for research is
particularly acute within the field of social studies and
technology. As the primarypurpose of social studies is to prepare
the young people of today to be the citizens of tomorrow, it
isnecessary to examine how technology tools impact, improve, and
otherwise affect teaching and learning insocial studies. Given
these circumstances, we have prepared this collection of research
conceptualizations, reports, and reviews to achieve three goals.1.
Put forward reports on how research is being conducted in the
field2. Present findings from well-designed research studies that
provide evidence of how specific applications of technology are
affectingteaching and learning in social studies.3. Showcase
reviews of research in social studiesIt is with this framework that
we edited this volume, Research on Technology and Social Studies
Education, as an effort to address emerging concernsrelated to
theorizing about the field and reporting research in social studies
and technology. The book is divided into four sections. The first
section ofthe book includes three descriptions of research
constructs and contexts in social studies and technology. The
second section is focused on researchreports from studies of
student learning in social studies with technology. The third
section containsresearch reports on teachers' pedagogical
considerations for using technology in social studies. In thefourth
and final section, we present work that broadly reviews and
critiques research in focused areas ofsocial studies and
technology. This volume contains twelve chapters, each of which
focuses on socialstudies content and pedagogy and how the field is
affected and enhanced with technology. The volumeincludes research
and theoretical works on various topics, including digital history,
digital video, geography, technology use in the K-12 social studies
classroom, and artificial intelligence.
