Action comedy starring Chris Pine, Tom Hardy and Reese Witherspoon.
Two of the world's most skilled CIA operatives (Pine and Hardy) -
who also happen to be best friends - fall out spectacularly when it
emerges that they are both dating the same woman, Lauren
(Witherspoon). The two men now put their considerable technical
skills and arsenal of super-advanced spy gadgetry to use as they go
all-out to bring each other down and win the battle for the blonde.
Romantic comedy starring Kate Hudson and Gael Garcia Bernal. Marley
Corbett (Hudson) is a dying woman with a big fear of falling in
love. Soon after being diagnosed with cancer, Marley meets her
match in Julian (Bernal) and finds the prospect of losing romantic
control much more frightening than death itself. The film co-stars
Kathy Bates as Marley's mother and Whoopi Goldberg as God.
Paul Rudd, Evangeline Lilly and Michael Douglas star in this sci-fi
action movie following the Marvel Comics superhero. Decades earlier
scientist Hank Pym (Douglas) invented a special suit that would
allow him to transform to the size of an ant and give him super
strength. The ageing hero approaches petty thief Scott Lang (Rudd)
and, with the help of his daughter Hope Van Dyne (Lilly), Hank
trains him to become the new Ant-Man. After Darren Cross (Corey
Stoll) takes over his former mentor Pym's business he produces a
similar suit to be worn by the military as well as a more powerful
suit for himself, transforming him into Yellowjacket. This results
in chaos and it's up to Ant-Man to use both his thieving skills and
his newfound abilities to save the day.
The filter/smoother combination provides the most accurate means of
trajectory reconstruction. Not all parameters of interest can be
determined from a given flight test data set: need to check
observability. A variety of ground & onboard sensors may be
used; trend appears to be toward increasing reliance on onboard
GPS.
Higher education spaces are undergoing radical transformations in
an attempt to respond to the needs of 21st-century learners and a
renewed interest in collaboration that spans beyond the walls of
departments, colleges, and libraries. Cases on Higher Education
Spaces: Innovation, Collaboration, and Technology highlights key
innovations and collaborative ventures in space design from across
campuses and institutions. Including writing and communication
centers, studios, libraries, digital media labs, learning commons,
and academic learning spaces, this collection is ideally suited for
university and professional administrators.
Here is a new text that fulfills an emerging need in both higher
and public education and stands to break new ground in addressing
critical skills required of graduates. When working on their last
book, It Works for Me, Creatively, the authors realized that the
future belongs to the right-brained. While Daniel Pink and other
visionaries may have oversimplified a bit, higher education is ripe
for the creative campus, while secondary education is desperately
seeking a complement to the growing assessment/teach-to-the-test
mentality. You don't have to study the 2010 IBM survey of prominent
American CEOs to know that the number one skill business wants is
students who can think creatively. To meet the demand of new
courses, programs, and curricula, the authors have developed a
200-page "textbook" suitable for secondary or higher education
courses that are jumping on this bandwagon. Introduction to Applied
Creative Thinking, as the title suggests, focuses not on just
developing the skills necessary for creative thinking, but on
having students apply those skills; after all, true creative
thinking demands making something that is both novel and useful.
Such a book may also be used successfully by professional
developers in business and education. For this book, Hal Blythe and
Charlie Sweet are joined in authorship by Rusty Carpenter. He not
only directs Eastern Kentucky University's Noel Studio for Academic
Creativity but has co-edited a book on that subject, Higher
Education, Emerging Technologies, and Community Partnerships (2011)
and the forthcoming Cases on Higher Education Spaces (2012).
Introduction to Applied Creative Thinking is student-friendly.
Every chapter is laced with exercises, assignments, summaries, and
generative spaces. Order copies now or contact the publisher for

The COVID-19 Impact on Higher Education Stakeholders and
Institutional Services provides different perspectives regarding
the impact of COVID-19 on the institutional functionality of
universities and colleges. Contributors argue that although the
quick pivot to online in 2020 was unique to the times, the
ramifications of this institution-altering shift far exceeded
expectations as the pandemic forced higher education institutions
to reconsider their daily operations. This collection demonstrates
that there is much to be learned from the collective institutional
responses to the pandemic. Scholars of communication and education
will find this book particularly useful.
New Media and Digital Pedagogy: Enhancing the Twenty-First-Century
Classroom addresses the influence of new media on instruction,
higher education, and pedagogy. The contributors specifically
examine the practical and theoretical implications of new media and
the influence of new media on education. This book emphasizes the
changing landscape of education and technology and creates a
foundational lens and framework for thinking through and navigating
higher education in a digital and new media driven context.
Leading Millennial Faculty: Navigating the New Professorate
explores how to effectively lead millennial faculty as they
navigate the new professoriate. Contributors address some
stereotypical millennial characteristics-being achievement
oriented, connected to the world at large, relatively sheltered,
and unaware of hierarchy in higher education-and how these
characteristics create advantages and challenges for all
generations in the higher education workplace.
Studio-Based Approaches for Multimodal Projects examines a
cross-section of strategies for studio approaches and models that
enable process-oriented multimodal projects and promote student
learning. This collection features seven chapters authored or
coauthored by leaders and innovators in studio-based approaches.
These scholars explore studio models and provide vivid examples of
ways in which they are realized as students pursue, design, and
create multimodal projects, including ePortfolios, research
posters, websites, and other engaging artifacts that integrate
oral, written, visual, and electronic communication. Studio-based
approaches enhance creativity, interaction, and learning among
students. The models designed and employed to support these
activities would benefit from a more focused look. This collection
assembles perspectives from scholar-practitioners who know and use
studio-based models. They are experts in this area and have helped
to shape current understandings of approaches that work well to
enhance learning through multimodal projects--those that integrate
oral, visual, written, or electronic modes of communication.
