Instructor Experiences with Implementing Technology in Blended Learning Courses

By: Nellie Deutsch,Nellie Deutsch Ed D

Organizational leaders in institutions of higher education expect instructors to implement blended learning courses without understanding instructor experiences with technology. Requiring faculty to teach blended learning courses without fully understanding the experiences instructors had implementing technology may lead to developing inappropriate professional training programs, ineffective use of technology, or to instructor disuse of technology in the future. The purpose of this qualitative phenomenological research study was to explore the experiences instructors had implementing technology in blended learning courses in campus-based institutions of higher education worldwide. This qualitative phenomenological research study used a modified van Kaam method by Moustakas (1994) with in-depth, semi-structured interviews to explore the experiences instructors had implementing technology in blended learning courses. The analysis of the transcribed interviews revealed four themes: (a) facilitating instruction and learning, (b) frustrating, (c) satisfying and rewarding, and (d) socially connecting. The conclusions derived from the study suggest that learning about the experiences instructors had implementing technology in blended learning courses may guide educational leaders in providing support and in preparing professional development workshops on how to teach blended learning courses.

60 Going on Fifty

The Baby Boomers' Memory Book

By: Ed Poole,Kathi Poole

Old friends from the class of 1960 at an Indiana high school share nostalgic memories as their fiftieth reunion draws near . . . This is the story of sixteen classmates who graduated from Indiana’s Columbus High School in May, 1960. With their fiftieth high school reunion on the horizon, the “Columbus Crew” reconnected, and here the guys tell stories about growing up in the ’40s, ’50s, and ’60s, and how those times impacted who they are today—offering both a glimpse into history and a delightful ride down Memory Lane. While the stories are unique to the Columbus Crew, they will rekindle memories for anyone who grew up in this glorious era—and for children and grandchildren of baby boomers, they show what life was like in mid-twentieth-century America. Let the Columbus Crew take you back to the days of flat tops, LPs, the Hula Hoop, transistor radios, Lassie, 20 cents per gallon gas, big bands, rock and roll—while sharing personal reminiscences of first cars, girlfriends, sports, jobs, getting into trouble and finding their way out, and much more.

About the Book History of Kanelly, Roache, Pike, Baskas, Barry chronicles the history of Richard Baskas’ paternal mother's side of the family, who were Irish, including as many family members as possible. This book started from scratch, as Richard had no idea how to get started in genealogy. He and his brother grew up in another family, and they had always wondered who was in their family and who they were related to. He has spent many years trying to find what information he could to connect all the dots. This particular version of this history is composed of many newspaper articles that were never included in other versions. Learn all about this family tree and how Richard and his family are all connected! About the Author Richard S. Baskas, Ed.D., is an Air Force partially disabled veteran who served as a firefighter and 911 dispatcher. He spent many of those years volunteering in the community and helping primary schools with their students. His only hobby is genealogy, as he has a few books published. He learned this craft from scratch but is not certified. Richard has an undergraduate degree in Biology, an MA in Teaching Science, and an Ed.D. in Adult Education. He has spent many years teaching, from military airmen to prison inmates.

Nurturing Future Generations

Promoting Resilience in Children and Adolescents Through Social, Emotional and Cognitive Skills

By: Rosemary A. Thompson, Ed.D.

The statistics are pretty grim - young people face an ever increasing tide of poverty, alcohol and drug abuse, violence, suicide, and family dysfunction. Society's response has been slow. Too many young people do not receive consistent, positive, and realistic validation of themselves from those adults on whom they depend. Nurturing Future Generations goes beyond the stilted rhetoric on the problems of youth and the dilemma for society by outlining specific treatment intervention and prevention strategies that address the full spectrum of dysfunctional behavior. It introduces structured intervention strategies for school and community collaboration, with an emphasis on remediation and treatment. Educators and helping professionals will find counseling strategies and psychoeducational techniques that focus on primary prevention. These primary prevention strategies are supported by an understanding of critical social, emotional, and cognitive skills. The new edition provides an increased focus on the positive aspects of youth development, with less emphasis placed on the dysfunctional side of youth behavior. The book addresses emerging research on resiliency and includes increased coverage of best practices for use with troubled youth. A new chapter on LGBT youth issues has been added, and the existing chapters have been substantially revised and updated. The author has reorganized sections within each chapter, adding to the readability and flow of the book, making it more useful as both a professional reference and supplemental text.

white man woke

A legal thriller

By: Ed Gaffney

white man #woke First published September 2018 "Some big black guy grabbed a cop’s gun and shot him." This is the message given to Sean Macklin—a white lawyer with a troubled past—when he’s assigned to represent Letroy Carson. Letroy has been found guilty in the attempted murder of a white policeman, and he’s challenging his conviction. But there’s a problem: Letroy, who sustained life-threatening injuries in the confrontation with the cop, has no memory of the incident. So Sean does what Sean always does—he heads for the scene of the crime, and begins to investigate. This takes him to Stonefield, Massachusetts, a predominantly black suburb of Boston, where he meets Letroy's brilliant sister, Destiny. At first, Destiny is shocked at Sean’s ignorance of the role that race plays in the American criminal justice system. But it’s not long before she realizes that despite his white privilege, Sean is a fearless advocate for his clients. Because with each success in Letroy’s case, Sean himself becomes an increasingly vulnerable target of the hatred and prejudice that have so long plagued the lives of black Americans. And yet, despite false arrests and multiple attempts on his life, Sean will not give up. But finally, the ugly and powerful forces aligned against Letroy and Sean successfully keep Sean out of the courtroom during Letroy's second trial. And all seems lost... Until Destiny steps in. (79,000 words or 220 pages) A timely new legal thriller from Edgar Award finalist Ed Gaffney

The Capricorn Kidnapping

By: Torena J. O’Rorke M.Ed.

When beautiful but tormented juvenile probation officer Christian Vargas discovers that babies are disappearing all over her rural Southeastern Washington State community of the Tri-Cities, she is determined to prove an illegal adoption ring is at work. Her partner, Daniel, has recently been emotionally distant, so instead she woos case information from the notorious playboy and prosecutor, Oz Rellim. A second victim brings back horrifying memories of her own baby’s death. Through Rellim, the intrepid young woman gets clues, as she begins to track the nefarious man responsible for this underworld game of life and death, money, and misogyny. Using the supernatural skills taught her by her Mexican shaman, Christian attempts to stop the kidnapper by posing as a woman wanting to adopt, in this high-stakes game of cat and mouse. “In this energetic third book in the Astrology Mystery series, the story centers on missing children and an illegal adoption ring. The latest installment reunites ambitious, dedicated, motorcycle-riding probation officer Christian Vargas with her ‘charismatic Chicano’ partner, Daniel O’Callahan, both hard on the trail of nefarious human traffickers responsible for three separate child abduction cases. Vargas, ignoring the warnings of the department head who vouched for her on a former tricky case, jumps (secretly) at the chance to participate in yet another investigation … More cleverly plotted suspense reliably anchored by a dogged heroine with verve to spare.” – Kirkus Reviews

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Music Theory Through Improvisation

A New Approach to Musicianship Training

By: Ed Sarath

Designed for Music Theory courses, Music Theory Through Improvisation presents a unique approach to basic theory and musicianship training that examines the study of traditional theory through the art of improvisation. The book follows the same general progression of diatonic to non-diatonic harmony in conventional approaches, but integrates improvisation, composition, keyboard harmony, analysis, and rhythm. Conventional approaches to basic musicianship have largely been oriented toward study of common practice harmony from the Euroclassical tradition, with a heavy emphasis in four-part chorale writing. The author’s entirely new pathway places the study of harmony within improvisation and composition in stylistically diverse format, with jazz and popular music serving as important stylistic sources. Supplemental materials include a play-along audio in the downloadable resources for improvisation and a companion website with resources for students and instructors.

Someone Out There Is Listening

The Life of Eddie Hazell, Jazz Guitar-Vocalist

By: Ed Petkus

Someone Out There is Listening tells the story of Eddie Hazell, a jazz guitar player and vocalist with a unique style unmatched in the last half century. Hazell had a combination of good looks, skills, and style. He was a '50s guy - heady, hopeful, and a believer in the system even though it didn't always work for him. As a rising star, Hazell had great bookings across the country and Canada. He was compared to some of the top stars in the music business, columnists and critics gave him solid reviews and high praise for his performances, and disc jockeys played his recordings and were eager for more. People who knew him had no doubt that he would make the big time - it was only a matter of when. Eddie Hazell's story is about the times and the vicissitudes of the music business, and what it took to accomplish one's goals. Eddie strove not only for success, but to persevere during bad times and personal hardships, while still maintaining artistic integrity and enjoyment of life. Eddie Hazell went the full mile; he didn't leave anything out. The celebrated music producer George Martin once said: 'The music business is littered with shooting stars that burned out. So pace yourselves; it's not a sprint. It is more like a marathon. Remember you have to keep running.' Eddie Hazell's life is a musical marathon - reading about it is like running with him and the many other runners in his field.

Memoir of a Minor League Baseball All-Star

Out of the Park

Memoir of a Minor League Baseball All-Star

By: Ed Mickelson

During the Golden Age of baseball, as many as 59 minor leagues operated in a single season, and hundreds of G.I.s returning home from World War II competed in them for the big break that would land them one of only 400 spots on 16 teams in the majors. These were truly the days when athletes played purely for the love of the game, motivated by goals that seemed always just beyond their fingertips. Among the many men who endured shocking extremes in pursuit of that diamond-plate dream was first baseman Ed Mickelson. This book relates the entirety of his 11-year struggle against the odds of success. A talented athlete from his early youth, Mickelson followed the game he loved across continental America, winning some and losing some, but always persevering. While a recruit for Lynchburg in the Class B Piedmont League, Mickelson maintained a league-leading .393 batting average. When traded to the Southeastern League in Montgomery, Alabama, he scaled his previous statistic to achieve an average of .417. In his first major league start, an ailing Stan Musial provided the opportunity for Ed to get one of only two hits against Hall of Famer Warren Spahn. After batting .335 and driving in 139 runs at Shreveport, Louisiana, in the Texas League, Ed was honored to become first pick among 8500 players in the Minor League draft in 1954, making him a Portland Beaver in the Pacific Coast League. This book captures the fierceness of his struggle throughout his career before the man who drove in the last run of the St. Louis Browns would eventually hand over his bat and go home. Despite his impressive statistics--the second highest batting average in the Pacific Coast League and the best fielding percentage among first basemen--Mickelson traded in professional baseball for a career of high school counseling and coaching young athletes, some becoming professionals themselves. His story is told here for veterans, scholars and fans alike, revealing first-hand the both difficult and rewarding challenges of the big game.

Packaging Boyhood

Saving Our Sons from Superheroes, Slackers, and Other Media Stereotypes

By: Sharon Lamb, Ed.D.,Lyn Mikel Brown, Ed.D.,Mark Tappan, Ed.D.

Player. Jock. Slacker. Competitor. Superhero. Goofball. Boys are besieged by images in the media that encourage slacking over studying; competition over teamwork; power over empower - ment; and being cool over being yourself. From cartoons to video games, boys are bombarded with stereotypes about what it means to be a boy, including messages about violence, risktaking, and perfecting an image of just not caring. Straight from the mouths of over 600 boys surveyed from across the U.S., the authors offer parents a long, hard look at what boys are watch ing, reading, hearing, and doing. They give parents advice on how to talk with their sons about these troubling images and provide them with tools to help their sons resist these mes sages and be their unique selves.

The Child at School

Interactions with peers and teachers, 2nd Edition

By: Peter Blatchford,Anthony D. Pellegrini,Ed Baines

What is the nature of children’s social life in school? How do their relationships and interactions with peers, teachers and other school staff influence their development and experience of school? This book, written by leading researchers in educational and developmental psychology, provides answers to these questions by offering an integrated perspective on children’s social interactions and relationships with their peers and teachers in school. Peer interactions in school have tended to be underestimated by educationalists, and this book redresses the balance by giving them equal weight to teacher–child interactions. In this second edition, the authors extensively revise the text on the basis of many years of research and teaching experience. They highlight common misconceptions about children, their social lives, and school achievement which have often resulted in ineffective school policy. The book includes a number of important topics, including: The significance of peer-friendships at school The nature and importance of play and break-times Aggression and bullying at school Peer relations and learning at school The classroom environment and teacher-pupil interaction The influence of gender in how children learn at school. Advantages and disadvantages of different methodological approaches for studying children in school settings Policy implications of current research findings. The Child at School will be essential reading for all students of child development and educational psychology. It will also be an invaluable source for both trainee and practicing teachers and teaching assistants, as well as clinical psychologists and policy makers in this area.

Wuvable Oaf

By: Ed Luce

Wuvable Oaf is the first-ever collection of the acclaimed self-published comic book series by cartoonist Ed Luce. Oaf is a large, hirsute, scary-looking ex-wrestler who lives in San Francisco with his adorable kitties and listens to a lot of Morrissey. The book follows Oaf ’s search for love in the big city, especially his pursuit of Eiffel, the lead singer of the black metal/queercore/ progressive disco grindcore band Ejaculoid. Luce weaves between the friends, associates, enemies, ex-lovers and pasts of both men into the story of their courtship. A romantic comedy at its core, Wuvable Oaf recalls elements of comics as diverse as Scott Pilgrim, Love and Rockets, and Archie, set against the background of San Francisco’s queer community and music scene.

The Blessed and the Damned

A Story of Survival

By: Ed Rhymer

Surrounded by violence, prostitution and alcoholic abuse, the familys options were very limited. The author explains their experiences with a philosophical view. How he and his brothers faced their circumstances and their efforts in finding ways to get by. With occasional concerns of others and the One upstairs, they managed to survive and avoid becoming victims of the unfavorable influences that were all around them. You will often hear of individual hardship situations. Poverty and hunger, mistreatment and abuse are evident in all walks of life. The author makes the experiences of his family vivid to even the most unbelieving reader. Battered by continual family hostilities, from a father guilty of rampant sexual appetites and alcoholic abuse, to a mother who sought any means to provide for the family in the early years, they were ultimately abandoned by their parents.

My Vita, If You Will

The Uncollected Ed McClanahan

By: Ed McClanahan

If you don't know Ed McClanahan, this "anthology of his essays, reviews, short stories, and novel excerpts (from early drafts) ought to do the trick" (Booklist). Highlighting the collection is "Grateful Dead I Have Known," a long prize-winning meditation about Jerry Garcia and the fanatical devotion of his fans. Also collected here for the first time are McClanahans's earliest short stories, along with book reviews, lost chapters of The Natural Man, and a substantial afterword to Famous People I Have Known. His recollections of famous friends and fellow travelers form an integral part of this book. He joins his buddy Ken Kesey in a bus-journey reunion with other gray-haired Merry Pranksters, and he pokes fun at his own graduate-school flamboyance in a touching remembrance of his mentor Wallace Stegner.
