Caradog W. James directs this British sci-fi drama starring Toby
Stephens and Caity Lotz. Top scientist Vincent (Stephens) works for
the Ministry of Defence on a project aimed at producing a weapon
equipped with advanced artificial intelligence. Vincent quickly
enlists the help of Ava (Lotz), an expert on A.I., and the
combination of their skills proves fruitful indeed. Such is the
chemistry between Vincent and Ava that they begin a romantic
relationship, which leads Vincent to confide to his partner that
the conscious machine they've constructed together shares certain
similarities with his ill daughter. This seems certain to cause
problems when MOD bigwig Thomson (Denis Lawson) uses his authority
to move the project in a different direction and Vincent loses
control of his creation...

The need to improve the mathematical proficiency of elementary
teachers is well recognized, and it has long been of interest to
educators and researchers in the U.S. and many other countries. But
the specific proficiencies that elementary teachers need and the
process of developing and improving them remain only partially
conceptualized and not well validated empirically. To improve this
situation, national workshops were organized at Texas A&M
University to generate focused discussions about this important
topic, with participation of mathematicians, mathematics educators
and teachers. Developing Mathematical Proficiency for Elementary
Instruction is a collection of articles that grew out of those
exciting cross-disciplinary exchanges. Developing Mathematical
Proficiency for Elementary Instruction is organized to probe the
specifics of mathematical proficiency that are important to
elementary teachers during two separate but inter-connected
professional stages: as pre-service teachers in a preparation
program, and as in-service teachers teaching mathematics in
elementary classrooms. From this rich and inspiring collection,
readers may better understand, and possibly rethink, their own
practices and research in empowering elementary teachers
mathematically and pedagogically, as educators or researchers.
To watch a child grieve and not know what to do is a profoundly difficult experience for parents, teachers, and caregivers. Yet, there are guidelines for helping children develop a lifelong, healthy response to loss. In When Children Grieve, the authors offer a cutting-edge volume to free children from the false idea of "not feeling bad" and to empower them with positive, effective methods of dealing with loss. There are many life experiences that can produce feelings of grief in a child, from the death of a relative or a divorce in the family to more everyday experiences such as moving to a new neighborhood or losing a prized possession. No matter the reason or degree of severity, if a child you love is grieving, the guidelines examined in this thoughtful book can make a difference.
This volume analyzes the dominance of STEM fields in various
university rankings and the reasons why many governments in the
world disproportionately give value to STEM fields. Secondly,
although there is general agreement that STEM fields are important,
chapter authors also examine the role of interdisciplinary and
multidisciplinary approaches for a revised STEM education as well
as implications for the future. The book presents examples from the
United States, Canada, Japan, Korea, and Taiwan.
The novel The Eclipse Blues is a tale of reverse power and fortune
that comes about in the United States thirty years into the 21st
Century as a result of massive global warming that's referred to by
scientist as "the global warming mega-effect." As a result of the
"global warming mega-effect" many diseases such as tuberculosis,
the West Nile virus, and malaria are widely manifested. The most
extensive debilitating disease is metastasis skin cancer that grows
into a pandemic and greatly impacts and destroys the lives of
people with pale and fair complexions - mostly Caucasians - who, as
a result, become gravely ill and suffer a high mortality rate that
subsequently makes them the minority in the United States to people
of color who discriminate against them and prompt Caucasians to
fight for their civil rights and equal justice much like people of
color did during previous decades. Two influential personalities,
Lutheran Minister Jerry Hines and newspaper owner Dewey Washington,
come to the forefront in the story as protagonists who work
diligently to end discrimination, inequality, and injustice toward
pale-skinned citizens. These men put a lot on the line, including
their own well-being, and in the case of Washington, the life of
his daughter who is kidnapped by deranged David Butterfield, who is
the diabolic leader of the Pale-skinned People Warriors Party that
has declared vengeance and therewith violence against people of
color.
