Are you a happy, motivated student? Or do you drag yourself to
class every morning? In The Happy Student, Daniel Wong describes
the five key steps you need to take in order to become both a
successful and happy student. Wong scored straight A's all through
college and received numerous academic honors and awards, but he
didn't find fulfillment in his achievements until he discovered the
five steps. Wong draws on his personal journey-from unhappy
overachiever to happy straight-A student-to guide you through your
own transformational process. If you're a high school or college
student who has begun to question what the true purpose of
education is, The Happy Student will lead you to the right answer.
If you're a teacher or parent, The Happy Student will explain how
you can help your students become intrinsically motivated. "You
must become purpose-driven rather than performance-driven," says
Wong. "You must ask the 'why' questions before you ask the 'how'
questions. You must learn how to climb the ladder more effectively,
but only after you've made sure that the ladder is leaning against
the right wall." In The Happy Student, Wong shows you how to: Enjoy
a new sense of purpose in your academics Keep your motivation
levels high every day using practical strategies Conquer your fear
of failure Set meaningful goals and achieve them Increase your
self-confidence Deal with the expectations of parents and teachers
Fall in love with learning again Don't leave your happiness to
chance. The Happy Student can make the difference between
frustration and fulfillment in your academics.
Amelia Cole Lia for short is one of the first women studying abroad
at Oxford University in the 1920s. Finally free from her
overbearing Brooklyn parents, she finds a welcome sense of
independence in British college life. Lia quickly falls for
Scarlett Daniels, an aspiring actress and hardheaded protester.
Scarlett introduces her to an exciting gender-equality movement
with high stakes. But when their secret love clashes with political
uprising, their relationship is one of the casualties. Years later,
Lia's only memories of Scarlett are obscured by the glossy
billboards she sees advertising the actress's new films. But when a
mysterious letter surfaces, she is immediately thrown back into
their unsettled romance. Lia's travels span oceans and continents
in her search for Scarlett. Spread across time and place, their
story is one of desire, adventure, and ultimately, devotion. Lia
will stop at nothing to win Scarlett back, but she soon realizes
that uncovering lost love might not be attainable after all.
This book shows how art therapists can use found objects in their
work with clients. Found objects can be a highly affordable,
imaginative and creative way of working, and are particularly
effective when working with marginalised populations and clients
who have experienced trauma. This edited collection contains
chapters from a wide variety of contributors from around the world
and covers a vast array of topics, including the use of found
objects in clinical settings, community and art practice, pedagogy
and self-care. This is the ideal resource for any art therapist
wishing to explore the use of this non-traditional medium to enrich
their practice.
