School-Based Consultation and Students with Autism Spectrum
Disorder examines the preventive and remedial powers of
consultation for indirectly supporting the needs of youth with
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), through collaborating with their
parents and educators. Given the unprecedented numbers of students
with ASD in schools, and the variety of evidence-based
interventions currently available, consultation helps ensure
appropriate service delivery across the range of student
functioning. Focusing on foundational knowledge and skills that
school consultants need to incorporate ASD service delivery into
their research and practice, this text addresses consistent and
effective service delivery for students with ASD to optimize their
positive academic, behavioral, adaptive, and social communicative
outcomes. Highlighting relevant cross-cultural research throughout
its chapters, the book concludes with a section on future
directions in the field that includes areas for improvement in
meeting the needs of diverse students, families, and schools.
Jack Hinson never planned to become a deadly sniper. A prosperous
and influential Kentucky plantation owner in the 1850s, Hinson was
devoted to raising his growing family and working his land. Yet by
1865, Hinson had likely killed more than one hundred men and had
single-handedly taken down an armed Union transport in his one-man
war against Grant's army and navy. By the end of the Civil War, the
Union had committed infantry and cavalry from nine regiments and a
specially equipped amphibious task force of marines to capture
Hinson, who was by that time nearly sixty years old. They never
caught him. Since then, the story of Jack Hinson has evaded astute
historians, and until now, he has remained invisible in the history
of sniper warfare. John S. "Old Jack" Hinson watched the start of
the Civil War with impartial disinterest. A friend of Ulysses S.
Grant and Confederate officers alike, Hinson was opposed to
secession, focused instead on his personal affairs. After a unit of
Union occupation troops moved in on his land and summarily
captured, executed, and placed the decapitated heads of his sons on
his gateposts, however, Hinson abandoned his quiet life for one of
revenge. In this unprecedented and incredible biography, Lt. Col.
Tom C. McKenney masterfully recounts Hinson's extraordinary feats
as a lone Confederate sniper. Equipped with a rifle he had
specially made for long-range accuracy, Hinson became a deadly
gadfly to the occupying army. An exemplary piece of historical
scholarship and the result of fifteen years of research, this
definitive biography includes an amazing cast of characters
including the Earp Brothers, Nathan Bedford Forrest, and Jesse
James, the cousin of Hinson's wife. This breathtaking story was all
but destroyed by the obliterating forces of history and is the only
account in print chronicling this one man's impact on the Civil
War.
The field of design research has been gaining momentum over the
last five years, particularly in educational studies. As papers and
articles have grown in number, definition of the domain is now
beginning to standardise. This book fulfils a growing need by
providing a synthesised assessment of the use of development
research in education. It looks at four main elements:
- background information including origins, definitions of
development research, description of applications and benefits and
risks associated with studies of this kind
- how the approach can serve the design of learning environments
and educational technology
- quality assurance - how to safeguard academic rigor while
conducting design and development studies
- a synthesis and overview of the topic along with relevant
reflections.

This book explores the concept of a map as a fundamental data type.
It defines maps at three levels. The first is an abstract level, in
which mathematic concepts are leveraged to precisely explain maps
and operational semantics. The second is at a discrete level, in
which graph theory is used to create a data model with the goal of
implementation in computer systems. Finally, maps are examined at
an implementation level, in which the authors discuss the
implementation of a fundamental map data type in database systems.
The map data type presented in this book creates new mechanisms for
the storage, analysis, and computation of map data objects in any
field that represents data in a map form. The authors develop a
model that includes a map data type capable of representing
thematic and geometric attributes in a single data object. The book
provides a complete example of mathematically defining a data type,
ensuring closure properties of those operations, and then
translating that type into a state that is suited for
implementation in a particular context. The book is designed for
researchers and professionals working in geography or computer
science in a range of fields including navigation, reasoning,
robotics, geospatial analysis, data management, and information
retrieval.

Providing a true integration of pathology with clinical management,
this volume presents a practical, comprehensive text on benign and
malignant disease of the adult bladder. Integrating pathology,
surgical management, oncology and molecular study in a
site-specific manner to include the urethra, urinary bladder,
ureter and renal pelvis, The Urinary Tract: A Comprehensive Guide
to Patient Diagnosis and Management is the first text in adult
bladder disease to closely interweave multiple clinical disciplines
into each chapter. For the majority of chapters, a pathologist and
urologist or urologic oncologist are paired to provide the greatest
integration of information for each disease process.

Educational design research blends scientific investigation with
the systematic development and implementation of solutions to
educational challenges. Empirical inquiry is conducted in real
learning settings - not laboratories - to craft effective solutions
to the complex challenges facing educational practitioners. At the
same time, the research is carefully structured to produce
theoretical understanding that can serve the work of others.
Conducting Educational Design Research, 2nd Edition has been
written to support graduate students as well as experienced
researchers who are new to this approach. Part I describes the
origins, outcomes, and generic approach. Part II discusses the core
processes of the generic approach in detail. Part III recommends
how to propose, report, and advance educational design research. In
addition to expanded treatment of research goals and
practicalities, more examples, and attention to design-based
implementation research, this new edition features enhanced
guidance. For each of the four core processes, this volume offers:
assessment tools detailed, behind-the-scenes descriptions of actual
project work examples of how specific theories have been used to
enrich the work For decades, policies for educational research
worldwide have swung back and forth between demanding rigor above
all other concerns, and increasing emphasis on impact. These two
qualities, rigor and impact, need not be mutually exclusive. This
volume supports readers in grasping and realizing the potential of
educational design research. It demonstrates how rigorous and
relevant investigation can yield both theoretical understanding and
solutions to urgent educational challenges.

Improving Human Learning in the Classroom provides a functional and
realistic approach to facilitate learning through a demonstration
of commonalities between the various theories of learning. Designed
to assist educators in eliciting students' prior knowledge,
providing feedback, transfer of knowledge, and promoting
self-assessment, Taylor and MacKenney provide proven strategies for
infusing various learning theories into a curriculum, guiding
educators to find their own strategies for promoting learning in
the classroom. Both quantitative and qualitative research methods
investigate learning theories and reforms in education.
Quantitative data sources build the theoretical framework for
educating the student, as well as developing strategies for closing
the achievement gap. Taylor and MacKenney fuse personal experiences
with solid strategies for human learning.
