Climate Change Education: Reimagining the Future with Alternative Forms of Storytelling offers innovative approaches to teaching about climate change through storytelling forms that appeal to today's students-climate fiction and protest poetry, horror and documentary films, video games and social media. The stories are used as exemplars, from exploring space debris to urban design planning to fast fashion and provide entry points for investigating particular aspects of climate science, including the local and global impacts of a warming planet. Each chapter provides analysis and strategies for fostering climate (and space) literacy through knowledge, empathy, and agency. The contributors encourage educators to answer students' calls for comprehensive K-12 climate education by aligning pedagogy with real-world challenges to prepare students who understand the myriad injustices of the climate crisis and feel empowered to confront them. Contributors from around the world share their own stories and urge educators to join the growing, hopeful movement for action, classroom by classroom.

Three casinos. Three bodies. Three days.

After a string of brutal murders in Las Vegas, Cassie Hobbes and the Naturals are called in to investigate. But even with the team's unique profiling talents, these murders seem baffling: unlike many serial killers, this one uses different methods every time. All of the victims were killed in public, yet the killer does not show up on any security feed. And each victim has a string of numbers tattooed on their wrist. Hidden in the numbers is a code - and the closer the Naturals come to unraveling the mystery, the more perilous the case becomes.

Meanwhile, Cassie is dealing with an equally dangerous and much more painful mystery. For the first time in years, there's been a break in her mother's case. As personal issues and tensions between the team mount, Cassie and the Naturals will be faced with impossible odds - and impossible choices.

This book is about the anatomy of neoliberalism and education from a Marxist perspective. It is the dialectical materialism of neoliberal ideas, examining the material conditions of how these ideas and practices emerged, and under what conditions. Each of these elements is related to the other and can only be properly understood as part and parcel of the whole system of capitalism, which links them together. This book investigates neoliberalism's political, cultural, and financial tools. It goes deep in the forces who have supported neoliberalism and how it became ""common sense"". It explores the imperialist outcomes and the social devastation it created. It then goes to see how these ideas and policies have been implemented in education. In short, it is the materialist conception of the history of the American empire. It then uses the analytic tools developed through this investigation to re-read the neoliberal educational reforms.
