Explores read-aloud strategies designed to enhance your reading and writing standards by capitalizing on the way literature can impact caring communities. With over 200 picture-book suggestions, author JoEllen McCarthy demonstrates how you can layer literacy and life lessons throughout your day using multiple connections across learning.

Presents an innovative discourse structure in which students' ideas and voices take the lead while teachers focus on listening and facilitating. In addition to classroom stories and examples, the authors provide 28 micro-lessons designed to help K-5 students develop and exercise their speaking and listening muscles.

Shares the power of infusing maths class with the spirit of revision so that students feel comfortable thinking aloud as they talk to learn through problem-solving rather than talking only to perform right answers. In the process, a class becomes a community of maths thinkers, and teachers gain access into their students' ideas and understandings.

In addressing the place of care in liberalism, this collection advances the idea that care ethics can help respond to legitimate criticisms from feminists who argue that liberalism ignores issues of race, class, and ethnicity.

Addressing the subject of stellar evolution from its basic theoretical aspect to current research, this book gives particular emphasis to the special challenges that confront the astrophysicist, namely the passive rather than active observation of astronomical objects and events.

Cardiac surgeons worldwide have rapidly adopted minimally invasive and hybrid techniques as demand from patients for less invasive approaches grows exponentially. This is the first comprehensive, practical guide for surgeons at all levels wishing to develop specialist skills in minimally invasive cardiac and hybrid surgery.

The proposed book includes concepts, methodologies, and practices for achieving sustainability in business operations. The underlying concept is explained from two perspectives: organizational level and policy level.

This much-needed text will fill an important gap for the practicing obstetrician in connecting what is seen on ultrasound before delivery with what is seen grossly at delivery, how this is interpreted and reported by the pathologist, and its clinical relevance for the obstetrician. With the increasing need for clinicians to understand pathological correlation, this will be an essential reference for both obstetricians in general practice and trainees; perinatal pathologists will also find this an invaluable guide to what their colleagues need to know.

Trauma Care Manual 3e is the definitive evidence-based manual of best trauma practice. Written by members of Trauma Care, this book provides clear practical guidelines for the management of victims of major trauma. New coverage includes chapters on abdominal and urological trauma, as well as trauma in the obese patient.

The book "Rare Isotope Beams: Concepts and Techniques" gives an up to date overview of all these aspects of RIB science inside a single cover containing the scientific motivation, production techniques, experimental techniques for studying exotic nuclei, methods used in condensed matter research and medical applications.

There is an increasing prevalence of large and complex datasets within the social sciences, and notably criminology in recent years. This data explosion has led to the development of specialized techniques for extracting information from such data. This book presents an introduction to "Big Data Science" for criminology and the social sciences, taking a case study-based approach to explaining the concepts. The theory is introduced as needed to answer scientific questions based on real data problems in the application areas. Some R and Python code is included to give support with implementation of the methods.

There are numerous criminal laws, criminal procedures, and expert testimony books, but no single one combines these key issues for the forensic science programs in the U.S. This book is a readable textbook for one-semester law or criminal law courses for forensic science students. It will cover criminal law broadly, focusing rather on the topic areas most important and salient to forensic scientists and students within forensic science including: moot court scenarios, 4th amendment search and seizure law, scientific evidence, expert testimony. All FEPAC accredited forensic science programs are required to teach at least 10 contact hours on criminal law.

DNA fingerprinting has revolutionized forensic science in the last 30 years. This book provides a current background into forensic biology techniques, both those that are currently practiced and those emerging in this rapidly advancing field. Recent and new advanced testing methods covered include next generation sequencing, forensic phenotyping, MicroRNA expression analysis, 20 core STR loci typing, and more. The book highlights evidence as the means to identify biological fluids blood, semen, saliva, urine, feces, vaginal secretions and menstrual blood to definitively identify both an individual, as well as the tissue source of origin, which can be critical in the investigative process.

This is a book about software engineering, more specifically, software construction. However, unlikesimilar books, the fundamental principle driving this book is the idea that high-quality construction requires understanding of the foundations of computer systems. Therefore, we use an approach that puts software construction concepts in context, using both embedded and PC environments, to engage readers and to make clear why these concepts are important. The book provides sufficient coverage of the hardware underpinnings of computer systems to help develop students in electrical, computer science, and engineering, thus, bridging the gap between hardware and software engineering.

There is a gap in the market for a book on small animal ophthalmic surgery that is heavily illustrated with the use of step-by-step color images. This book fills that gap. The atlas format, that has accompanying text as secondary support including possible complications, will support the visual learner as much as the more abstract thinker, while delivering its general educational aims to a wide audience - general practitioners to developing specialists all around the world as well as residents in training.

College and university campuses are unique environments that have a responsibility to ensure the safety and welfare of the campus community including their staff, students, and the families of those students. ¿A Common Sense Approach to School Security and Emergency Management¿ will provide insight into available security and emergency management systems in a manner that will empower the novice and enlighten security experts on building a security and safety plan for schools.
