The integration of information and communication technologies in education is unavoidable, as an increasing percentage of educators embrace modern technology, others are faced with the decision to reevaluate their own pedagogical practices or become obsolete. To meet the needs of students, one must first define what stipulates a successful K-12 student, the best practices of online classrooms, the warning signs for low-performing students, and how to engage web-based students. Optimizing K-12 Education through Online and Blended Learning addresses the models, support, cases, and delivery of K-12 online education. Seeking to further the conversation about the most effective ways to integrate ICT into the classroom, this publication presents theoretical frameworks to support educators and administrators. This book is an essential collection of research for teachers, administrators, students of education, IT professionals, developers, and policy makers.
Entire third season of the popular animated comedy. In 'Rainforest Schmainforest', Cartman, Stan, Kyle and Kenny visit the rainforests of Costa Rica on the 'Getting Gay with Kids' choir tour (listen out for a guest appearance by 'Friends' star Jennifer Aniston). 'Spontaneous Combustion' sees Stan's dad struggling to find a solution to the spontaneous combustion being experienced by people who hold their farts in out of politeness. In 'Succubus', the boys attempt to save Chef from a life of bliss with a life-draining succubus in female form. 'Tweek vs Craig' sees the boys splitting into rival camps in a playground debate over who is the hardest - Tweek or Craig? In 'Jakovasaurs', the town becomes over-run by incredibly stupid and annoying prehistoric creatures who breed at an exponential rate. A plan is hatched to get rid of the visitors, with Cartman's voice the only one raised in protest (he likes them, you see). In 'Sexual Harassment Panda', an encounter with an educational panda results in a spate of sexual harrasment lawsuits being filed in the town of South Park. 'Cat Orgy' sees Cartman left to the mercy of Stan's older sister Shelly when she babysits for him... and just what is wrong with Cartman's cat? In 'Two Guys Naked in a Hot Tub', Mr Mackey's 'Meteor Shower Party' sees Stan and Kyle's fathers indulging their homo-erotic fantasies in the hot tub.

In 'The Red Badge of Gayness', Cartman takes over a Civil War reconstruction in order to ensure that this time round the South wins. 'Mr Hankey's Christmas Classics' sees everyone's favourite piece of excrement hosting a festive musical special. In 'Are You There God? It's Jesus', Christ decides to put on a special Millennium show for his straying flock. But will anyone really be impressed by wheelchair-bound rocker Rod Stewart repeatedly poohing his pants live on stage? 'The Brown Noise' sees Cartman, Stan, Kyle and Kenny hatching a plot to gain revenge on some cool New York rivals at the world's biggest ever recorder concert, while Mr Garrison visits his estranged to father to discover why he was never sexually abused as a child.
The decolonization of Algeria represents a turning point in world history, marking the end of France's colonial empire, the birth of the Algerian republic, and the appearance of the Third World and pan-Arabism. Algeria emerged from colonial domination to negotiate the release of American hostages in Iran during the Carter administration. Radical Islam would later rise from the ashes of Algeria's failed democracy, leading to a civil war and the training of Algerian terrorists in Afghanistan. Moreover, the decolonization of Algeria offered an imperfect model of decolonization to other nations like South Africa that succeeded in abolishing apartheid while retaining its white settler population. Algeria and its war of national liberation therefore constitute an inescapable reference for those looking to understand today's "war on terror" and ever-expanding islamophobia in Western media circuits. Consequently, it is imperative that students and educators understand the global implications of the Algerian War and how to best approach this conflict in school and at home so as to learn from the consequences of misrepresentation at all levels of the memory transmission chain. These objectives are all the more important today given the West's misunderstanding and mischaracterization of Islam, the Arab Spring, the Muslim-majority world, and, most importantly, the continuing influence of French colonialism-especially in the postcolonial era. Conceived as a case study, The Algerian War in French-Language Comics: Postcolonial Memory, History, and Subjectivity argues that comics provide an alternative to textbook representations of the Algerian War in France because they draw from many of the same source materials yet produce narratives that are significantly different. This book demonstrates that although comics rely on conventional vectors of memory transmission like national education, the family, and mainstream media, they can also create new and productive dialogues using these same vectors in ways unavailable to traditional textbooks. From this perspective, these comics are an effective and alternative way to develop a more inclusive social consciousness.

This interdisciplinary collection of essays unites researchers from many divergent fields in a common effort to explore the complexity, diversity, and paradoxes of French Harki literature. Given the growing body of literature written by, for, and about the Harkis, this project begins to fill a significant research gap. Although French Harki literature continues to evolve and diversify with each passing day, this book represents the first systematic attempt to delineate the significance of this emerging field within the larger context of Francophone literature, migration studies, and diaspora studies. Furthermore, the invaluable contributions of noted historians which open the volume offer an essential theoretical framework which places Harki literature in its appropriate historical context on both sides of the Mediterranean. As the title of this collection unequivocally implies, this volume was intentionally designed to foster meaningful collaboration with scholars from disciplines such as French/Francophone literature, history, anthropology, and sociology in a common effort to create intellectually rigorous essays which are also accessible to a broad audience. A Practical Guide to French Harki Literature is a much-needed point of departure that strives to encourage other researchers to contribute to the conversation regarding the past and present repercussions of the construction of the social group known as the Harkis.
