'The book deserves a huge readership: every teacher in higher education who would like to make his/her teaching as economical, efficient and effective as possible should spend a few hours with it.' - British Journal of Educational Technology'Students who want easy access to the research literature on which claims about learning and studying are made will find this compact and very accessible text a most useful starting point. I would urge all self-respecting psychology students to include this text in their list of reading. But further, teachers in higher education would find this text supportive. This excellent little text could give the experienced teacher a means of reflecting on his/her own extant practices, and could give the beginning teacher in higher education a sound introduction into some of the issues surrounding student learning.' - Effie Maclellan (University of Strathclyde), Psychology Teaching Review, 8, 1, March 1999.'This book could successfully meet the needs of two other audiences in addition to its primary audience of undergraduates studying psychology. These audiences are students on study skills courses and lecturers undertaking courses on teaching and learning in higher education. I would not hesitate to suggest that those readers involved in teaching on such courses have the book to hand on their bookshelf or in the library.' - Liz McDowell (University of Northumbria at Newcastle), Studies in Higher Education, 1998.'Learning and Studying is an easy-to-read text which will be helpful and informative not only to students of psychology but to others who wish to get to grips with the basics of student learning but who have no previous knowledge of the area.' - Moira Fraser (University of Aberdeen), The British Journal of Educational Psychology, 69, 3, 1999.
'Overall the book is a valuable addition to the literature on learning and studying in the post-compulsory phase of education. It is easy to read and clearly set out with tables and examples which illustrate the principles outlined in the text...Researchers in adult learning from other disciplines may find the book too positivistic in its approach although it provides a much more balanced account of research to date than previous texts. Its clear presentation and the way it addresses issues of relevance to adult learners and their teachers make it a valuable additiion to the literature. I have included it on the reading list for the courses that I teach and I expect others will have done the same. The author is to be congratulated.' - Susan Hallam (Oxford Brookes), Psychology of Education Review 24, 2, 2000.

‘This book makes an important contribution to broadening our understanding of how culture shapes the practice of media literacy education in schools.’ - Renee Hobbs, Professor, Communication Studies, Harrington School of Communication and Media, The University of Rhode Island, USA'In an era of fake news and digital ideologies, internet surveillance and espionage, with governments and corporations vying for our attention and privacy - Csilla Weninger's critical reworking of media literacy is essential reading. This is a timely reminder of the foundations of work in the field and the practical, ethical imperatives for working with teachers and young people.' - Allan Luke, Emeritus Professor, Queensland University of Technology, Australia'Prime targets in the expanding, globalised commodity market for English language and literacy education are policymakers, school leaders, classroom teachers, and parents. English language and literacy skills are commonly connected to global cultural and economic participation, to national productivity, and increasingly, to internal cultural cohesion and harmony. Nowhere are these imperatives more evident than in Singapore – a multilingual and deeply multicultural Asian society, with largely human rather than natural resources, with an English-medium school system, with an ethos of rapid technology adoption, and in the lead position in OECD’s global literacy assessments. This setting presents Singapore-based media literacy educator Csilla Weninger with a set of intriguing challenges, and this book develops her response: that progressive and sustainable language pedagogies call for a richer account of the broader and rapidly developing policy, political, and cultural landscapes impacting educators, students, and parents – for a ‘zooming out’. Weninger’s book is based on designing innovative pedagogies that have the potential to provide educators with produc

Histoire de la Guerre de 1813 En Allemagne (Éd.1866)

James Harden

&ldquo;Beautiful and haunting . . . one of literature&rsquo;s most unlikely picaresques, a road novel in which the rogue heroes can&rsquo;t seem to leave home.&rdquo;&mdash;The Boston Globe&ldquo;Masterly.&rdquo;&mdash;The New York Times Book Review&#160;&ldquo;Doctorow paints on a sweeping historical canvas, imagining the Collyer brothers as witness to the aspirations and transgressions of 20th century America; yet this book&rsquo;s most powerfully moving moments are the quiet ones, when the brothers relish a breath of cool morning air, and each other&rsquo;s tragically exclusive company.&rdquo;&mdash;&#160;O: The Oprah Magazine&ldquo;A stately, beautiful performance with great resonance . . . What makes this novel so striking is that it joins both blindness and insight, the sensual world and the world of the mind, to tell a story about the unfolding of modern American life that we have never heard in exactly this (austere and lovely) way before.&rdquo;&mdash;San Francisco Chronicle &ldquo;Wondrous . . . inspired . . . darkly visionary and surprisingly funny.&rdquo; &mdash;The New York Review of Books&ldquo;Cunningly panoramic . . . Doctorow has packed this tale with episodes of existential wonder  that cpature the brothers in all their fascinating wackiness.&rdquo;&mdash;Elle &ldquo;Following the panoramic scope of The March, Doctorow creates a microcosmic  and mythic tale of compulsion, alienation, and dark metamorphosis inspired by the  famously eccentric Collyer brothers of New York City. . . . Doctorow has Homer, who is  blind, narrate with deadpan humor and spellbinding precision. . . . Over the decades, people  come and go&ndash;lovers, a gangster, a jazz musician, a flock of hippies, but finally  Homer and Langley are irrevocably alone, prisoners in their fortress of rubbish,  trapped in their warped form of brotherly love. Wizardly Doctorow presents an ingenious,  haunting odyssey that unfolds within a labyrinth built out of the detritus of war  and excess.&rdquo;&ndash;Booklist&#160;(starred review) &ldquo;A sweeping masterpiece about the infamous  New York hermits, the Collyer brothers. . . . Occasionally, outsiders wander through the  house, exposing it as a living museum of artifacts, Americana, obscurity and simmering  madness. Doctorow&rsquo;s achievement is in not undermining the dignity of two brothers  who share a lush landscape built on imagination and incapacities. It&rsquo;s a feat of  distillation, vision and sympathy.&rdquo;&mdash;Publishers Weekly&#160;(starred review)&ldquo;Doctorow works his usual magic in bringing history to life and larding it with disturbing implications. . . . As with much of Doctorow&rsquo;s masterful fiction,&#160;Homer & Langley&#160;turns the American dream on its ear, offering us a glimpse of the dark side of our national&mdash;and personal&mdash;eccentricities.&rdquo;&mdash;BookPage
