Exploring Learning Ecologies

By: Norman Jackson

Learning ecologies are a new way of interpreting our presence and actions in the world. An ecology of practice for the purpose of learning and performing provides us with opportunities for action, information, knowledge and other resources. It includes the contexts and places we inhabit and the spaces we create to reason and imagine. It includes our processes and activities for performing and creating new value. It includes our relationships and the tools and technologies we use and it enables us to connect and integrate our past and current experiences. While the first edition of the book was aimed primarily at educators working in higher education, this shortened version has in mind the people who support learning and development in organisations that are not primarily educational.

Scattered Harvest

By: Edward A. Norman

A Mustang, Major Norman is a retired thirty-year career veteran of the United States Marine Corps living in central Florida with his wife Paula. His Christian lay experience is formulated from nearly 60 years of a practical evangelical point of view and study reinforced as a graduate of Liberty University Home Bible Institute, and from biblical insight influenced by noted Christian leaders and their learned exegesis of biblical doctrine and from his interest and study in Christian Apologetics. His interests include three grown children and seven grandchildren in Virginia, Mississippi and California, and his study of the full counsel of God's Word. A stimulating Christian commentary with decision-based information regarding Christian doctrine, a wide-ranging life study, cultic religions such as Christian Science, Mormonism, and Jehovah's Witnesses; the Apocrypha and Roman Catholic History, Resurrection, Book of Revelation, Apocalypse, Tribulational events, Second Coming of Christ, heaven and hell, salvation, rapture, judgment, eternity, and practical life issues such as financial stewardship and the future of our church. This book serves to provide life, death and eternal perspectives too significant to ignore. Included in the discussions are factual and undeniable historical, archeological, and scientific evidentiary information that will enable and encourage readers far beyond their expectations, their level of understanding, and their subsequent contributions to self, family, friends, social contacts and co-workers. This study is designed and prayerfully constructed to provide a comprehensive view of spiritual truths within the context of a single reference compiled from numerous Christian literature sources integrated with editorial commentary and creative comment.

Learning for a Complex World

A Lifewide Concept of Learning, Education and Personal Development

By: Norman J Jackson

This book has been primarily written for people who are interested and involved in helping students maximise the learning and development they gain from their higher education experience. The authors contributing to this book hope that their attempt to examine and give practical meaning to the idea of lifewideness makes sense to you and helps you support and facilitate development of people in your professional context. We hope also that it might have meaning for you in your own life. The book is also written for people who are helping higher education institutions develop a better understanding of the ways in which students engage in and are shaped by their whole life experience while they are studying. And for those people who are trying to bring about change in institutional practice, particularly those who are finding it challenging, we hope the contributions in this book will reinforce your conviction that this is a worthwhile thing to do. In recent years, Universities in the UK have been encouraged to evaluate what they do through the lens of the students' experience. This has resulted in an increasing institutional interest and awareness in the way in which students integrate higher education with their life beyond the campus. Student Support Services in some universities have been inspired by the visionary report ‘Learning Reconsidered: A Campus-wide Focus on the Student Experience’ (NASPA and ACPA 2004). We hope that this book will encourage and be of value to those who make decisions or who create policies relating to the student experience.

Adam Smith

Father of Economics

By: Jesse Norman

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Adam Smith

Father of Economics

By: Jesse Norman

A dazzlingly original, "remarkable" account of the life and thought of legendary economist Adam Smith (Financial Times). Adam Smith (1723-1790) is now widely regarded as the greatest economist of all time. But what he really thought, and the implications of his ideas, remain fiercely contested. Was he an eloquent advocate of capitalism and individual freedom? A prime mover of "market fundamentalism"? An apologist for human selfishness? Or something else entirely? In the tradition of The Worldly Philosophers, Adam Smith dispels the myths and caricatures, and provides a far more complex portrait of the man. Offering a highly engaging account of Smith's life and times, political philosopher Jesse Norman explores his work as a whole and traces his influence over two centuries to the present day. Finally, he shows how a proper understanding of Smith can help us address the problems of modern capitalism. The Smith who emerges from this book is not only the greatest of all economists but a pioneering theorist of moral philosophy, culture, and society.

The Parowan Gap: Nature's Perfect Observatory

By: V. Garth Norman

Parowan Gap in Southwestern Utah is perhaps the most concentrated collection of ancient Native American petroglyphs in the west, with over 90 panels and 1500 figures. It is heavily visited and world famous for its many intriguing petroglyphs that until now have been an unsolved mystery. In 1993, noted archaeologist Garth Norman began the Parowan Gap Archaeology Project. His earth-shaking discoveries have challenged previously held ideas about the Fremont culture and way of life. Norman's breakthrough of how to read the code of the Gap rock art has enabled him to prove that the Fremont culture was far more sophisticated than was previously known and had distant trade contacts as far away as Mesoamerica. Among his most exciting discoveries is the sacred Mesoamerican calendar with in a Fremont lunar-solar calendar. Norman also discovered a massive world-class temple center and calendar observatory - and more! The book with its fascinating, cutting-edge study of the Parowan Gap is invaluable for anyone interested in North American archaeology.

Genesis of Nature and the Nature of Genesis

By: Norman Parker

Creation and Evolution are topics which raise some hard questions: How did Nature start? (What is the real "e;origin of species"e;?) Were living things created by God, or did they evolve? (or both ?) How long ago did it all happen? What do the fossils actually tell us? Why are we still arguing about Darwin 130 years after his death? These questions are from a grey area where science, philosophy and religious belief overlap. The scientists themselves do not agree about the answers. This beginning of Nature: is it a matter of Revelation, or Folk Tale, or science? How much of the science of the past is "e;Just So story"e;?

Building Safe Systems in Aviation

A CRM Developer's Handbook

By: Norman MacLeod

Building Safe Systems in Aviation provides a single source for those who need to progress beyond current models of Crew Resource Management (CRM) to developing safe systems in critical industries. Although the primary focus is on airline pilots, the principles apply to all sectors of aviation, particularly maintenance and cabin crew, as well as other high-risk industries. It systematically sets out the context of CRM and safe systems, the conduct of training, the resources needed by the facilitator and the processes required for the measurement of outcomes. Part One reviews the development of the human factors/CRM domain and examines the concepts of risk and safety. Part Two, primarily for new instructors, gives a guide to training delivery and also considers non-classroom situations, the role of debriefing, facilitation and the design of human factors courses. Part Three examines the measurement of training effectiveness, the design and implementation of behavioural markers and standardizing assessors. It concludes by looking at some of the broader issues associated with the management of CRM. The book's readership includes those who design, deliver or manage CRM and safety-related training within airlines and other companies.
