Students invest significant resources in coming to university and
universities play a crucial role in enabling their students to
benefit from this investment and to be employable once they have
finished their degree. Giving a platform to the debate about
graduate employability from the student, university and employer
perspectives, this innovative How To Guide explores the challenges
associated with ensuring the employability of university graduates.
In defining the nature of employability, the book discusses how the
concept is a shared responsibility dependent on individual
capabilities, the labour market and social capital. Considering
what employers want from graduates, this book looks at how
universities can provide strong graduate outcomes and inclusive
career opportunities irrespective of student background. The book
illustrates ways to embed employability across the curriculum,
suggesting innovative approaches to careers guidance and specific
employability initiatives, while upholding the benefits of
entrepreneurial activities and widening participation
opportunities. With insights from around the world, the book
concludes by thinking about the institutional response to the
challenges faced by the employability agenda, reflecting on how
research has developed over the past 20 years. Interdisciplinary
and comparative in scope, this book of international case studies
of employability approaches across a wide range of educational
institutions will prove an engaging resource for students and
scholars of business, education management, and teaching methods.
Its exploration of regulatory environments will also prove useful
for policymakers working in education.
This classic and authoritative textbook contains material that is
not over-simplified and can be used to solve real-world noise
control engineering problems. Engineering Noise Control, 6th
edition covers theoretical concepts, and practical application of
current noise control technology. Topics extensively covered or
revised from the 5th edition include: beating; addition and
subtraction of noise levels; combining multi-path noise level
reductions; hearing damage assessment and protection; speech
intelligibility; noise weighting curves; instrumentation, including
MEMS, IEPE and TEDS sensors; noise source types, including
transportation noise and equipment noise estimations; outdoor sound
propagation, including noise barriers, meteorological effects and
sloping ground effects; sound in rooms, muffling devices, including
4-pole analysis, self noise and pressure drop calculations; sound
transmission through single, double and triple partitions;
vibration measurement and control, finite element analysis;
boundary element methods; and statistical energy analysis.
Discusses all aspects of industrial and environmental noise control
An ideal textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses
in noise control An excellent reference text for acoustic
consultants and engineers Practical applications are used to
demonstrate theoretical concepts Includes material not available in
other books A wide range of example problems and solutions that are
linked to noise control practice are available for download from
www.causalsystems.com.

The purpose of this book, first published in 1990, is to explain
the varying levels of protection from foreign competition across US
industries by focusing on factors that affect both the supply of
and demand for the regulation of trade. What circumstances lead
industries to request protection, and what factors affect the
government's decision of whether or not to supply that protection?
What factors best explain the actions of interest groups and the
decisions of regulators? This detailed study answers these key
questions and more.
This thoroughly revised and updated edition of Teaching Language
Arts to English Language Learners provides readers with the
comprehensive understanding of both the challenges that face ELLs
and ways in which educators might address them in the language arts
classroom. The authors offer proven techniques that teachers can
readily use to teach reading, writing, grammar, and vocabulary as
well as speaking, listening, and viewing skills. A complete section
is also devoted to ways teachers can integrate all five strands of
the language arts curriculum into a comprehensive unit of study
with meaningful accommodations for ELLs. An annotated list of web
and print resources completes the volume, making this a valuable
reference for language arts teachers to meet the challenges of
including all learners in effective instruction. New features to
this edition include: An updated and streamlined Part 1, which
provides an essential overview of ELL theory in a language arts
specific context. Additional practical examples of language arts
exercises, all of which are closely aligned with the Common Core
State Standards. New pedagogical elements in Part 3, including tips
on harnessing new technologies, discussion questions and reflection
points. Updates to the web and print resources in Part 4

This new edition of a well-respected reference brings together, in
one place, information on the entire field of animal by-products
processing and utilization. The book's contents cover both edible
and non-edible products, by-products of seafood and poultry in
addition to red meat, medicinal and pharmaceutical processing and
utilization of animal by-products, and animal product waste
disposal, processing, reduction and utilization. Particular
attention has been paid to new products for the rendering industry,
and to concerns over new animal diseases, which might well be
transferred by feeding low-temperature rendered products to
animals.
