This is the first comprehensive book to consider STEM education
from early childhood through to senior secondary education. It
approaches STEM as a form of real-world, problem-based education
that draws on the knowledge and skills of the science, technology,
engineering and mathematics disciplines. Rather than presenting
each of the separate disciplines to an equal extent, it focuses on
STEM researchers' perspectives on how their work contributes to
effective STEM education in terms of building knowledge, skills and
engagement. Gathering contributions by authors from various
countries, the book explores effective STEM education from a range
of perspectives within the international context. Moreover, it
addresses critical issues in STEM education, including transition
and trajectories, gender, rurality, socioeconomic status and
cultural diversity. By doing so, it not only shares the current
state of knowledge in this field, but also offers a source of
inspiration for future research.

That which survives the initial assault may yet die from the
infection left behind. In the destroyed country of Lithia, the
former Gildonese leader of the Lowlands, King Fice, has violently
assumed the throne, filling the void left by the Tek destruction of
the country. His unnatural powers of sway have become more potent
and his influence is far-reaching. The Tek invasion has also left a
void within the kingdom of Epertase. The war has tested the
once-great people and, with the venomous words of men Queen Alina
considers friends, Epertase descends into revolution. Alina barely
escapes with her life. Once again, the kingdom needs a savior. And
once again Rasi will be forced to unleash the darker part of
himself in order to save the woman he loves. All is not what it
seems. Victory may still mean defeat. The war for Epertase has only
begun.
Since the dawn of time, the Light of Epertase has determined when
the throne was to be passed from elder to heir. For more than a
thousand years, the Light's decision had never been challenged ...
Until now. When a ruthless army advances on Epertase, the Light
determines that corrupt King Elijah is no longer fit to rule. His
daughter, Princess Alina, becomes the kingdom's only hope for
salvation. When evil men violently abduct her, Epertase's fall
appears inevitable. But all is not lost, for Alina has a secret
lover lurking in the outer mountains, a long-banished warrior
willing to bring down armies and King Elijah himself to save her.
His name is Rasi and he prepares for blood. Deadly men plan to
sacrifice Alina for the Light of Epertase that lives within her
soul. Rasi plans to kill all who try. The kingdom's fate hangs in
the balance.
When kings make war, innocent men die. After Rasi's bloody defeat
at the hands of King Fice, he awakens imprisoned in the fisher
kingdom. The dark wizard, Tevin the Third, has assumed Epertase's
throne. He rules with an iron fist. All he needs to gain ultimate
power is Alina's Light. Fearing him, Alina has fled with her son,
Cridon, to Torick Island where the banished Teks now live. But the
Light has been broken and is calling Cridon back to Epertase and
the dark wizard. Tevin must be stopped, and the fate of the kingdom
rests within the soul of a child. The end of days has just begun.
