    This book educates and instruct students, industrial hygienists, and occupational health specialists in the understanding, program development, and application of Total Worker Exposure concepts. Industrial hygienists and occupational health specialists have the expertise, training, and knowledge to have a significant impact in this area, but they often lack an understanding of how to apply Total Worker Exposure concepts in their own workplaces. This book defines the scope of Total Worker Exposure specifically, and provides concrete approaches, solutions, tools, and case studies to help professionals apply these concepts within their areas of influence. Through these tools and technologies, workplaces and industrial hygienists can make a distinct contribution to both worker and public health by helping to address and manage this relevant part of the external exposome. Chapters one through four focus on introducing and discussing the published science related to Total Worker Exposure, how it is defined, and the stressors it encompasses. Chapters five through nine discuss delineating the role of Total Worker Exposure specifically (compared to efforts focused on broader health or on total exposures to the public, as well as the important science of cumulative risk assessment and how it can be applied to Total Worker Exposure). Chapters nine through fourteen address additional topics such as case studies, ethics, data gaps, and data analysis.

I would use it for teacher training in a flash.'--Denyze Toffoli, Université Paul Sabatier Toulouse III, IUT-AEnglish Language Learning in the Digital Age is a comprehensive introduction to the theoretical background and real-world application of IDLE (Informal Digital Learning of English). Designed for teachers and future teachers preparing to teach English as a second or other language, this highly practical guide focuses on incorporating digital technology into curricula to draw upon the extracurricular exposures to English that many students experience outside of the classroom. With some creativity and care, teachers can find ways to bring these experiences with English into the classroom, ultimately improving student learning outcomes.Offering a specific focus on examples and case studies drawn from language education in the Middle East, Asia, and Europe, this text employs a three-part structure beginning with the theories behind autonomous learning and the importance of informal language learning for young adults. Part two demonstrates various methods for integrating games, social media, e-books, language software, mobile apps, and other digital resources into the classroom. The third section addresses the use of IDLE methods to bridge the gap between informal and formal uses of English, the advantages and disadvantages of IDLE in flipped classrooms and online teaching, and how IDLE strategies can enhance mandated curricula and better prepare students for national exams. The book concludes with a brief discussion of the future of language learning and the need to include digital technologies and learner-driven strategies in education policy.English Language Learning in the Digital Age is an ideal textbook for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in the fields of language education and language acquisition, as well as teachers and teachers-in-training who are preparing to teach English in countries where English is not the primary language.

    Digital technologies are now central to the machinations of capitalism. But how are they changing forms of capital accumulation and domination, and in what terms are these changes being promoted and justified by a new, incredibly powerful techno-elite?In this book, Jenny Huberman takes on these questions. Beyond demonstrating how digital technologies make new forms of capital accumulation possible, she interrogates the ideological transformations that have accompanied the emergence of digital capitalism. She examines how business gurus, entrepreneurs, and venture capitalists make claims about the way digital technologies contribute to the common good, foster collaboration and connectivity, and render life more convenient, even if this convenience comes at the expense of once cherished values such as privacy and liberty. Ultimately, Huberman argues that the spirit of digital capitalism is Janus-faced and reveals a deeper set of cultural contradictions at the heart of contemporary American society: promising, in the same moment, to liberate us and surveil us, enrich us and yet render our lives more economically precarious.Smart and thought-provoking, this book offers new ways of thinking that will speak to anyone interested in understanding the contours of contemporary capitalism, particularly students and scholars of economic anthropology and sociology.
