Reviving Professional Learning Communities

Strength Through Diversity, Conflict, Teamwork, and Structure

By: Perry P. Wiseman,Hector Arroyo,Nicholas Richter

A Professional Learning Community is undeniably one of the most effective processes out there for improving student achievement, as well a school's overarching culture and climate. With such widespread notoriety, though, there has been a dilution of the true essence of the term. Understanding of what a Professional Learning Community is varies from one district to another, from one school to another, even from one educator to another. It's about time for a resurrection. Reviving Professional Learning Communities does exactly that through the lens of a simple framework called, the 4S Approach. This new development helps practitioners build thriving learning communities through: (1) recognition and validation of each staff member's unique points of view, (2) natural conflict that accompanies the assorted viewpoints, (3) healthy teamwork, and (4) effective systems. Sprinkled throughout the book are also 32 practical, high-leverage strategies that are easy to understand and simple to put into practice right away. This book will most certainly help answer the perennial question: How do we achieve a genuine Professional Learning Community?

Pardon

The Autobiography of a Gangster

By: Hector Rodriguez

POWERFULL... COMPELLING... INSPIRATIONAL... These words come to mind after becoming immersed in this true story of Hector Rodriguez whose Mother left when he was only nine months old. His Father turned to alcohol to escape the responsibilities of raising seven children by himself in New York City. By the age of ten, his gang had become his family and by fourteen he was already a street hardened criminal. In a desperate attempt to get him off the streets, his father sent him to Vietnam where he learned to kill without remorse. After his tour of duty, he found his way back to the streets of New York where he became the ruthless leader of a very large and powerful drug gang. Though God had been calling him since he was twelve, the devil had already ensnared him with drugs and money. Then the one time he showed mercy on someone, it led to a series of life changing events which allowed him to finally hear God's voice. Upon hearing God's word and feeling his peace and grace, the thick walls of anger around Hector finally crumbled to dust. With the same intensity he put into building his drug empire, he now used to build God's empire. This book will move you to tears, make you laugh until it hurts, and fill you with so much inspiration that if you open yourself to its message, it can and will change your life. Very few stories will keep you on the edge of your seat while offering so much in return. Pastor Hector Rodriguez is a true apostle for God and his story has already inspired so many to change their ways and follow the path of light, just as it has done for me. Joseph Dinan Jr. Editor

Brazos River Marauders

By: E. Roy Hector

Colt Horn was born on a pioneer trail to Scottish parents seeking new land they could call their own. But at the age of fifteen, he finds his parents murdered and is set adrift on the dangerous mission of vengeance. He grows to manhood surviving battles, hardships, and struggles, eventually becoming the owner of a large ranch. When he meets Liz Hanes, he wants to marry her and settle down. But none of his dreams can be realized until his parents' murderers are brought to justice. Colt learns that the man who killed his parents and is now leader of the Brazos River Marauders, wants him dead or alive and has posted a large bounty on his head. The attacks on neighboring ranches and on his life provoke him to leave his ranch and work full-time in an effort to eliminate the lawlessness in his valley. He will, at last, bring the leader of the Brazos River Marauders to justice-or die trying. Plenty of action brings the Old West to life in this tale filled with cowboys, love, revenge, and ultimately, redemption.

Poemas en Transito

el Subway

By: Hector Geager

“Poemas en Tránsito” is a poetry book narrating my personal experiences, as I commute to work in the number 1 Train, which runs from 242nd Street in the Bronx to Battery Park, in Manhattan. In the poems, I use the kaleidoscope of sounds, visuals and people in the subway to relate some of my experiences. In its totality, the book is a compendium of poems selected from my poetic production starting in 1976, under the guidance of my illustrious and respected, Professor Jaime Montesinos. His intellectual infl uence and guidance were the midwives of this book.

Death in Veracruz

A Novel

By: Hector Camín

Marks the long-awaited arrival—in English—of a masterful voice in Mexican and noir fiction Death in Veracruz is a gritty and atmospheric noir centered on the so-called oil wars of the late 1970s, which pitted the extremely powerful and corrupt government-owned oil cartel against the agrarian landowners in the Tabasco region of Southern Mexico. This novel, translated for the first time in English since its publication 30 years ago, concerns a journalist who investigates the death of a colleague and friend Rojano in a bizarre shooting incident that takes place in a small rural village, and who finds himself up against crooked police and petty government officials bought by the oil conglomerate. But, as he gets deeper and deeper into this Mexican Heart of Darkness, he finds Rojano was not all he seemed, and neither was his widow with whom he falls into a doomed affair. Death in Veracruz.

Return to Hell's Corner

By: E. Roy Hector

In the exciting, fast-paced Western adventure sequel to Escape from Hell's Corner, crazed killer Amos Clarke (aka Amos Watson) will stop at nothing to avenge the death of his father. Amos Watson's admiration for his father and almost worship of the blacksnake-whip were all that remained from outlaw Watson Clarke's horrific reign of terror inflicted on the people of southwest Texas during Amos' formative years. During his youth, Amos developed a seething rage and designed an insidious plan to avenge his father's death. His hatred of those responsible for killing his father included three Darnel brothers, two county sheriffs, a Mexican Army captain and the leading citizens of Turtle Creek. Amos avoided work and spent his youthful years committing crimes- mostly petty thievery─ he felt capable of doing without having to pay the penalty. Amos learned all his killer father's sly and cunning tricks and acquired his hedonic desire for feelings of satisfaction and pleasure while abusing women, especially young girls. He always brought home to his mother the money and other valuables he robbed. Set in the picturesque Texas mountains, Return to Hell's Corner combines danger, romance, bravery, and good old-fashioned western justice to provide an exhilarating ride through the lawless wasteland of the Old West.
