Today's ever-changing learning environment is characterised by the
fast pace of technology that drives our society to move forward,
and causes our knowledge to increase at an exponential rate. The
need for in-depth research that is bound to generate new knowledge
about curriculum and program development is becoming ever more
relevant. Andragogical and Pedagogical Methods for Curriculum and
Program Development offers an in-depth description of key terms and
concepts related to curriculum and programme development for both
faculty and students, as well as programme designers, instructional
programme developers, trainers, and librarians.

Experiments in Nuclear Science is an introductory-level laboratory
manual providing hands-on opportunities for developing insights
into the origins and properties of nuclear radiations, their
interactions with matter, their detection and measurement, and
their applications in the physical and life sciences. Based on
experiments successfully performed by hundreds of students at
Rutgers University and the University of Wisconsin, this manual can
be used as a stand-alone volume or alongside a textbook such as
Introduction to Nuclear Science by Jeff C. Bryan. Relevant to a
range of courses Each of the 32 exercises includes an overview of
the scientific phenomenon, instructions for conducting the
experiments and recording the data, directions for analyzing the
data and reporting the results, specific questions relating to the
experiments, and several problems relating to the scientific
phenomena being investigated. Validated for safety and pedagogy in
the undergraduate instructional laboratory, the exercises can be
used in an undergraduate course in nuclear science. Individual
exercises can also be adopted to demonstrate fundamental principles
in a general science course as well as introductory biology and
chemistry courses. Making use of off-the-shelf instrumentation,
these exercises can be performed in a conventional laboratory under
the supervision of an experienced instructor. Applicable to
numerous career fields Demonstrating fundamental principles, the
concepts explored through these experiments are relevant to a host
of career opportunities, including those in the health sciences,
the nuclear power industry, regulatory agencies, and waste
management services.
Written to provide students who have limited backgrounds in the
physical sciences and math with an accessible textbook on nuclear
chemistry and physics, Introduction to Nuclear Science, Fourth
Edition continues to provide a clear and complete introduction to
nuclear chemistry and physics, from basic concepts to nuclear power
and medical applications. Incorporating suggestions from adopting
professors and collaborations with the U.S. Department of Energy
funded and American Chemical Society sponsored Nuclear Chemistry
Summer School, a new chapter on nuclear structure is now included.
Also new to this edition: A section covering mass excess
calculations Isochron dating of rocks The section on statistics is
completely re-written to better align with conventional instruction
Expanded discussion of recent changes in the nuclear power industry
and nuclear medicine This book covers energetics, nuclear stability
and structure, radioactive decay and reactions, interactions of
radiation with matter, detection methods, and safety measures,
including monitoring and regulations. This updated, expanded
edition provides a much-needed textbook and resource for
undergraduate students in science and engineering as well as those
studying nuclear medicine and radiation therapy.
Replete with fresh immediacy, rich spiritual content, innovation
and occasional humour, these talks were given at a time when Rudolf
Steiner was preparing for independence from the Theosophical
Society. Alongside the much-loved lectures ‘Nervousness and Ego
Development’ – in which Steiner shares practical exercises for
coping with contemporary life’s challenges – and ‘Love and
Its Significance in the World’, the collection finds a focal
point in descriptions of the ‘Three Soul Paths to Christ’. The
first of these is via the Gospels, the second through ‘Inner
Experience’ and the third ‘Initiation’, which Steiner
characterizes as a path transcending religion. He further
elaborates these themes in a lecture entitled, ‘Mysteries of the
Kingdoms of Heaven in Parables and in Real Form’. Elijah, John
the Baptist, Raphael and Novalis form a golden thread throughout,
appearing as a fourfold herald of a true Christianity of the
future. A moving yet astringent tribute to the founder of
Theosophy, H.P. Blavatsky, on the tenth anniversary of her death,
adds the Christian verities not embraced by Blavatsky during her
lifetime, and two stirring talks that set the mood for
Christmastide – via St Matthew, Eudocia and St Luke – round off
the volume with paeans to Novalis. The lectures are complemented
with an introduction by Margaret Jonas, detailed notes and an
index.

'The personality who received the Christ Being into himself in his
thirtieth year is a complex entelechy. Only on the basis of the
Akashic Record can an accurate view be gained as to why the life of
Jesus is so diversely presented in the various Gospels...' - Rudolf
Steiner Previously untranslated, this collection of twelve lectures
represents a middle point in Rudolf Steiner's unique exposition of
the Christian gospels - his momentous courses on St John and St
Luke had already been delivered, whilst his lectures on the Matthew
and Mark gospels were yet to follow. Here, he examines the varying
depictions of Christ in the gospels, explaining that they represent
four different but complementary perspectives. Steiner's
unparalleled insights are based on his firsthand ability to
research the spiritual Akashic Record - the universal compendium of
all events, thoughts, emotions and intentions. The twelve lectures
include: 'The Gospels, Buddha and the two Jesus children'; 'Four
varying depictions of Christ in the four Gospels'; 'The Mission of
the ancient Hebrew people'; 'Preparations for an understanding of
the Christ Event'; 'On the right attitude to Anthroposophy'; 'The
Gospel of Matthew and the Christ conundrum'; 'Group souls and
Individuality'; 'God within and the God in outer manifestation';
'The Christmas tree as a symbol'; and 'A Christmas mood'.
Translated by Christiana Bryan, this volume features an
introduction by Tom Ravetz as well as notes and an index. Twelve
lectures, various cities, 11 Oct.-26 Dec. 1909, GA 117
Calculus Set Free: Infinitesimals to the Rescue is a
single-variable calculus textbook that incorporates the use of
infinitesimal methods. The procedures used throughout make many of
the calculations simpler and the concepts clearer for undergraduate
students, heightening success and easing a significant burden of
entry into STEM disciplines. This text features a student-friendly
exposition with ample marginal notes, examples, illustrations, and
more. The exercises include a wide range of difficulty levels,
stretching from very simple "rapid response" questions to the
occasional exercise meant to test knowledge. While some exercises
require the use of technology to work through, none are dependent
on any specific software. The answers to odd-numbered exercises in
the back of the book include both simplified and non-simplified
answers, hints, or alternative answers. Throughout the text, notes
in the margins include comments meant to supplement understanding,
sometimes including line-by-line commentary for worked examples.
Without sacrificing academic rigor, Calculus Set Free offers an
engaging style that helps students to solidify their understanding
on difficult theoretical calculus.
