Exploring the World through Data We live in a data-driven world,
and the goal of this text is to teach students how to access and
analyse these data critically. Authors Rob Gould, Colleen Ryan, and
Rebecca Wong want students to develop a "data habit of mind"
because learning statistics is an essential life skill that extends
beyond the classroom. Regardless of their math backgrounds,
students will learn how to think about data and how to reason using
data. With a clear, unintimidating writing style and carefully
chosen pedagogy, this text makes data analysis accessible to all
students.

Dramatic Interactions is a collection of essays on the flourishing
and interdisciplinary subject of teaching foreign languages,
literatures, and cultures through theater. With rich examples from
a variety of commonly and less commonly taught languages, this book
affirms both the relevance and effectiveness of using theater for
foreign language learning in the most comprehensive sense of the
term. It includes innovative approaches to specific theatrical
texts and addresses numerous aspects of foreign language learning
such as oral proficiency and communication, intercultural
competence, the role of affect and motivation in foreign language
study, multiple literacies, regional variations and dialect,
literary analysis and adaptation, and the overall liberating
effects of verbal and non-verbal self-expression in the foreign
language. Dramatic Interactions renders accessible, efficacious,
and enjoyable the study of languages, literatures, and cultures
through theater with the hope of inspiring and facilitating the
greater incorporation of theatrical texts and techniques in foreign
language courses at every level.
