Based on the popular Teaching Foundation Phase mathematics - A guide for South African students and teachers.

A teacher's role is fundamental in the acquisition of the much-needed mathematical skills and knowledge that form part of children's early development and beyond. From the year before learners enter formal schooling (Grade R) to the end of the Foundation Phase (Grade 3), teachers contribute to the most important learning cycle and lay the groundwork for learners for the rest of their schooling years. Teaching Foundation Phase Mathematics provides crucial insights into basic principles that are applied both globally and locally with an in-depth discussion of the concepts and theories that underlie the teaching of mathematics to learners at a young age. The terms Africanisation, decolonisation of the curriculum and ethno mathematics are also discussed. Carefully considering the CAPS documents issued by the Department of Basic Education in 2012, themes revolve around the physical, social and conceptual knowledge that learners need to acquire and build on in mathematics in order to fully comprehend and develop their skills for the future. Teaching Foundation Phase Mathematics is the essential guide for beginner teachers and students to prepare their classrooms, plan lessons to support the acquisition of mathematical skills and knowledge, and teach mathematics with confidence in a multicultural classroom. The book will also help parents understand what their children are required to learn in the mathematics classroom.

Teaching and learning resources are all the materials, aids and equipment that teachers use to facilitate effective teaching and learning within their classrooms. Teaching resources should include a wide range of visual, auditory, audio-visual, text/graph-based, tactile or multimedia materials, such as posters, flashcards, storybooks, digital storybooks, videos, songs, puppets. They also include equipment such as white boards, laptops and projectors. Teaching and learning resources can assist learners throughout the learning process and make learning more memorable because visual and tactile experiences amplify long-term memory. Resource development: a practical guide for teachers is aimed at teachers in preschools and schools that use teaching and learning resources daily to enhance their classroom activities, as well as parents that need to assist their children with school projects.

A fictional story based on historical facts about the influenza epidemic of 1918, which is currently compared to Sudden Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS). The story is written from the perspective of one man and his desperate attempt to save his family from the disease.

Since 1994, there have been few attempts to address the theoretical and practical foundations of effective management in early childhood education (ECE) and the Foundation Phase in South African schools, yet the survival and success of ECE centres and schools depends on the ability of education managers to meet the needs of the children/learners, educators, parents and the community. Management in early childhood education provides a comprehensive overview of the management of ECE centres for children from birth to nine years old. This book is a resource and reference guide which includes amongst others Internet sources and templates such as inventories, financial planning, parents' newsletters and agendas of staff meetings. It focuses especially on the South African context by referring to appropriate examples and scenarios of real-life situations in this country as well as the newly introduced Curriculum Assessment Policy Statements (CAPS). It also offers practical applications for the many theoretical frameworks in South African schools. All the chapters in this third edition have been updated, and each one begins with learning outcomes and key terms. Management in early childhood education is aimed at student teachers, educators, administrators and child caregivers.

Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things. Grave takes a ground-level view of how burial sites have transformed over time and how they continue to change. As a cemetery tour guide, Allison C. Meier has spent more time walking among tombstones than most. Even for her, the grave has largely been invisible, an out of the way and unobtrusive marker of death. However, graves turn out to be not always so subtle, reverent, or permanent. While the indigent and unidentified have frequently been interred in mass graves, a fate brought into the public eye during the COVID-19 pandemic, the practice today is not unlike burials in the potter's fields of the colonial era. Burial is not the only option, of course, and Meier analyzes the rise of cremation, green burial, and new practices like human composting, investigating what is next for the grave and how existing spaces of death can be returned to community life. Object Lessons is published in partnership with an essay series in The Atlantic.

Automated instrumentation produces reams of data that need to be interpreted within a relatively short period of time. Statistics is a major tool in this important endeavor to conquer - and understand - numbers. In this important work, various techniques, perspectives, and applications are brought together so that readers can learn the basic concepts, recognize trends and connections, and clearly observe how the various equations are linked to decision making. There is in-depth coverage of elementary and moderately advanced statistics, numerical simulation and optimization, some programming, real-life industrial examples, and applications in the analytical lab under GMP. Statistical Methods in Analytical Chemistry also comes with a 3.5 floppy disk with 32 BASIC programs and over 30 sample data files. This book was written for those who already have some firsthand experience with numbers - be it in an analytical or other type of laboratory. The common ground covered in this book is the act of calibrating measuring equipment, collecting, and interpreting data. The examples were taken from a chemical/pharmaceutical environment, but only serve as convenient vehicles for the discussion of when to use which test, and how to make sense out of the results. While practical use of statistics is the major concern, it is put into perspective, and the reader is urged to use plausibility checks. Statistical Methods in Analytical Chemistry integrates PC computing power, testing programs, sample data files, algorithms instead of statistical tables, and analytical know-how in the context of a GMP/GLP-conscious industrial setting.

In diesem Buch werden die methodischen Grundlagen von Planungs- und Kontrollsystemen sowie von Informationssystemen im engeren Sinn (Fuhrungsinformationssysteme, Management-Informationssysteme, Business-Intelligence-Systeme, Online-Analytical-Processing-Systeme) systematisch und kompakt aufbereitet. Ein deutlicher Schwerpunkt liegt dabei auf der Darstellung der Informationsinhalte. Die Autoren vermitteln einen Uberblick zu allen wichtigen betrieblichen Funktionsbereichen sowie zu funktions- und prozessubergreifenden Themen. Zu allen Bereichen finden sich aktuelle Beispiele, etwa zur Balanced-Scorecard-Methodik, zu einem Redaktions-Leitstand fur die Unternehmensfuhrung, zu Systemen zur Integration von Marktforschungs- und Controllingdaten, zur Analyse der Fertigungslogistik oder zum Beschwerdemanagement. Bei der Auswahl der Praxisbeispiele berucksichtigen die Autoren die starke Verbreitung von SAP-Systemen.
Fur die 10. Auflage wurden die Praxisbeispiele sowie die Kapitel zur Gestaltung von Berichten und zur Kategorisierung der typischen Fuhrungsinformationen auf den neuesten Stand gebracht.

"Where's the dragon?" This was no ordinary princess. The knight realized that the moment he first inspected her castle. It was almost hidden beneath masses of thick, green vines, and had the work of abandonment written all over it. To each knight comes a dream to find his princess. However, what is a knight supposed to do, when he finds that his biggest enemy is not the dragon guarding the walls, but the stubborn pride of the princess herself? What if that princess needs to find her own way to escape her vines? Who will show them the road that leads to their destiny?
