The No Outsiders programme promotes an ethos of inclusion and
tolerance, and aims to prepare children for life in modern Britain.
Expanding the scheme published in the 2015 book, No Outsiders in
Our Schools, this book is designed to further support educators as
they make the No Outsiders ethos part of their school culture at a
time when messages of fear and division are rife. Written by a
practising teacher whose work to promote equality has been globally
celebrated, this book provides lesson plans for use in classes from
EYFS to Year 6. Key features of the resource include: * plans for
delivering the No Outsiders message through assemblies and classes,
allowing for a flexible approach * recommendations for picture
books that can be used to support messages of diversity and
inclusion * a scheme of work designed to meet the requirements of
the Equalities Act (2010) and support teachers as they prepare to
implement the new Relationships Education curriculum (2020). It is
the responsibility of primary schools to promote equality and
diversity. This is a vital resource for all teachers and trainee
teachers as they prepare children for a life where diversity is
embraced and there is no fear of difference.
Throughout history, people have often expressed controversial and
conflicting interpretations of current events. In this unique
resource, Joan Brodsky Schur reveals how compelling and engaging
the study of history becomes when students use documents to imagine
living through events in American history.
"Eyewitness to the Past" examines six types of primary sources:
diaries, travelogues, letters, news articles, speeches, and
scrapbooks. Teachers will find interactive strategies to help
students analyze the unique properties of each, and apply to them
their own written work and oral argument. Students learn to express
opposing viewpoints in documents, classroom interactions, and
simulations such as staging congressional hearings, elections, or
protests. They build crucial analytical thinking and presentation
skills. Used together, the six strategies offer a varied and
cohesive structure for studying the American past that reinforces
material in the textbook, encourages creativity, activates
different learning styles, and strengthens cognitive skills.
Each chapter provides detailed instructions for implementing an
eyewitness strategy set in a specific era of American history, and
includes extensions for adapting the strategy to other time
periods. In addition to the primary sources included in the book,
examples of student work are presented throughout to aid teachers
in evaluating the work of their own students. Rubrics and a list of
resources are offered for each eyewitness strategy.
This fourth volume in the series discusses such topics as building
a sense of history in a first-grade classroom, teaching for
understanding in a third-grade geography lesson, and social studies
education in an urban fourth-grade classroom.

Container transportation is the predominant mode of
inter-continental cargo traffic. Since container ships and port
terminals involve a huge capital investment and significant daily
operating costs, it is of crucial importance to efficiently utilize
the internal resources of container terminals and transportation
systems. Today there is an ongoing trend to use automated container
handling and transportation technology, in particular, in countries
with high labour costs. This in turn requires highly sophisticated
control strategies in order to meet the desired performance
measures. The primary objective of this book is to reflect these
recent developments and to present new insights and successful
solutions to operational problems of automated container terminals
and transportation systems. It comprises reports on the state of
the art, applications of quantitative methods, as well as case
studies and simulation results. Its contributions are written by
leading experts from academia and business. The book addresses
practitioners as well as academic researchers in logistics,
transportation, and management.
