It's been almost one hundred million years since an asteroid impact devastated Earth, leading to the extinction of biological humans. Their digital offspring survived and slowly colonized the galaxy, printing out bodies to build and maintain the network of computers that host their digital world. Perrin is a biological boy from Earth, learning how to maintain the eco-walls separating the ecosystems that digital humans have recreated on the planet. Cerelys is a PIP, a digital human girl with a hunger for the outside. When she introduces him to the dangerous world of the illegal story trade, the spark between them threatens to ignite the most explosive chain of events in a hundred million years.
Dark, disturbing and oftentimes bizarre, these highly polished, widely disparate short stories tell the meta story of one man's descent into depression, madness, and suicide -- and hint at a golden beyond.
Now in a revised and expanded fifth edition that reflects current research and best practices in direct assessment and intervention, this text addresses a perennial need for school practitioners and practitioners in training. Presented is a comprehensive, problem-solving-based approach for working with K–12 students who are struggling with reading, writing, or mathematics. The book provides a framework for evaluating the instructional environment as well as each student's context and unique learning needs; planning instructional modifications; and monitoring progress. The companion workbook, available separately, contains practice exercises and reproducible forms. New to This Edition *Revised throughout by new coauthor Nathan H. Clemens, while retaining the core elements of Edward S. Shapiro's approach. *New emphasis on the central role of language in reading, mathematics, and writing development and difficulties, and implications for working more effectively with linguistically and culturally diverse students. *Fresh perspectives on behaviors that facilitate learning, such as attention to task and following directions. *Updated and expanded coverage of key topics--universal screening; progress monitoring; intensive, individualized academic skills interventions; and more. See also Academic Skills Problems Fifth Edition Workbook, which provides the reproducible forms discussed in the text, practice exercises, and additional useful materials, in a convenient large-size format.
The main goal of this book is to present a summary of the state of the art historical background. Conventional chemical pest control methods are mentioned only as a means of comparison to controlled release. Research endeavour with biological weapons, potential usage of such controls, and the few instances of success are likewise brought into focus with the same motive. Formulations and methods or preparing controlled release pesticides are discussed in some detail as concerns the antifouling and molluscicide areas, where the compounding methodology has been well developed. The mathematical basis of controlled release has been developed to an extent and is presented in an abbreviated form.
In this fantasy novel, Jesse is being bullied by Joe in middle school. Jesse discovers an extraordinary world, but his fight with Joe escalates and he's not sure if being a loner will allow him to win.
