Be careful what you wish for you may get it Sarah Flynn's fondest
desires come true when she makes the varsity cheer squad at Stewart
Falls Academy. And wonder of wonders, her dream guy, Jason
Phillips, the football captain, finally has time for her. He claims
to "love" her as much as she adores him. However, things aren't as
perfect as they seem. No matter how hard she tries, she can't make
him happy. As the days go by it grows harder and harder to explain
her constant injuries. She knows she shouldn't be battered by
someone who supposedly cares about her, but how can she change
Jason? And more importantly, can she get out of this relationship
alive?
The constant creation of internet technologies has contributed to
growing trends of scenario-based virtual environments and serious
games in education. Along with these new technologies, there is an
increasing interest in how students can be effectively assessed
when using such virtual environments. Cases on the Assessment of
Scenario and Game-Based Virtual Worlds in Higher Education is a
comprehensive collection that provides aspects of assessment in
virtual worlds combined with lessons learned from critical
reflection. These case studies present successes, challenges, and
innovations to be utilised as a framework for practitioners and
researchers to base their own effective forms of scenario-based
learning. This publication would be of particular interest to
practice-based disciplines such as education, nursing, medicine,
and social work.
Sixteen-year-old Vicky Miller feels overloaded since her parents
filed for divorce. Her mother got the house and a new job. Her
step-dad has the new car and a new girlfriend. Vicky has the five
kids, her younger half-brothers and sisters who range from 18
months to 10 years old to look after and her own life now comes
second to their needs and wants. It's been six months of
house-cleaning, baby-sitting, cooking, non-stop laundry and Vicky
is through waiting for her life to improve. She has plans for her
sophomore year at Lincoln High and they don't include being an
unpaid servant. If it takes a constant battle to attend her riding
classes and complete her internship at Shamrock Stable, she's ready
to fight for her goal to be the best natural horse trainer around.
Her parents may not have time for her to be with horses, but she
has dreams no one can steal. Why should she give them away? But
will keeping them mean she loses her family?
