We are Australian (Vol 1 Colour Edition)

Australian Stories by Aussies

By: Rina Robinson,Jennifer Goard,Jo Tregellis,Linda Brooks

You know us. We are your cousin Alice, who tells the story of Nanna's funeral; how all the cars followed Uncle George in the wrong direction, while a priest stood by the grave, waiting to conduct the burial. We are your dad, who you visit on warm summer nights, and he talks about the old days; when he met mum; when he worked in the cane fields. We are the migrant family next door, who laugh till they cry, telling of how, when they arrived in the fifties, they went to the milk bar for a gelati. The owner kept saying "Gilleti" and offering them razor blades. We are the Vietnamese mother who tells you one day how she came to Australia. She quietly talks of three weeks at sea in a small boat, crammed in with twenty others, knees to chest, cold, wet and hungry. We are anyone who has lived in Australia since the 1930s. Often, our stories will be your stories; but some will be strange, different; some will be funny and others will bring tears. We are the story tellers who started with memories that turned into stories. We wrote them down, and learned the frustration when the words wouldn't come; and experienced that magical moment when the words took over, and the story wrote itself. We became authors. Now here we are. These are our stories; our country's living history, by the best historians of all - those who lived it. John McBride (2010)

Mathematics Teaching and Learning

South Korean Elementary Teachers' Mathematical Knowledge for Teaching

By: Rina Kim,Lillie R. Albert

The purpose of this research is to identify the categories of South Korean elementary teachers’ knowledge for teaching mathematics. Emerging from the data collected and the subsequent analysis are five categories of South Korean elementary teachers’ knowledge for teaching mathematics: Mathematics Curriculum Knowledge, Mathematics Learner Knowledge, Fundamental Mathematics Conceptual Knowledge, Mathematics Pedagogical Content Knowledge, and Mathematics Pedagogical Procedural Knowledge. The first three categories of knowledge play a significant role in mathematics instruction as an integrated form within Mathematics Pedagogical Content Knowledge. This study also demonstrated that Mathematics Pedagogical Procedural Knowledge might play a pivotal role in constructing Mathematics Pedagogical Content Knowledge. These findings are connected to results from relevant studies in terms of the significant role of teachers’ knowledge in mathematics instruction.

Health Communication

A Multicultural Perspective

By: Snehendu B. Kar,Rina Alcalay,Shane Alex

This volume is based upon a review of available literature and intervention experiences selected from modern and traditional societies. It is augmented by the lessons learned through the editors′ experience in teaching courses on health communication and foundation of health behavior in graduate public health programs at several leading universities in the United States and abroad over two decades. Examples and implications are also drawn from extensive involvement in diverse health and health communication projects, such as the on-going community-based public health project in South Central Los Angeles sponsored by UCLA and the Kellogg Foundation. This particular project is designed to develop health promotion communication interventions from a multicultural perspective and provides unmatched opportunities to focus on the dynamics of a multicultural community as they affect health communication interventions.

Probabilistic and Causal Inference

The Works of Judea Pearl

By: Hector Geffner,Rina Dechter,Joseph Halpern

Professor Judea Pearl won the 2011 Turing Award “for fundamental contributions to artificial intelligence through the development of a calculus for probabilistic and causal reasoning.” This book contains the original articles that led to the award, as well as other seminal works, divided into four parts: heuristic search, probabilistic reasoning, causality, first period (1988–2001), and causality, recent period (2002–2020). Each of these parts starts with an introduction written by Judea Pearl. The volume also contains original, contributed articles by leading researchers that analyze, extend, or assess the influence of Pearl’s work in different fields: from AI, Machine Learning, and Statistics to Cognitive Science, Philosophy, and the Social Sciences. The first part of the volume includes a biography, a transcript of his Turing Award Lecture, two interviews, and a selected bibliography annotated by him.

7 Naughty-to-Nice Heroes

By: Rachel Cross,Ines Saint,Rina Gray,JM Stewart,Synithia Williams,Christine S Feldman,Lotchie Burton

Seduction is the name of the game for these seven charming bad boys. Will the love of a good woman tame their wild ways? Find out in this discounted digital collection. Spiraling: Amy Astor, America’s ice princess, is exactly who boy-band-heartthrob-turned-Hollywood-leading-man Shane Marx needs to help him land his next starring role and break out of stereotyped casting. But Hollywood’s power brokers will cry “cut!” on both of their careers unless they can learn that love is stronger than addiction. Strangers in the Night: When Jake Kelly, Chicago’s conservative mayoral candidate, and Keila Diaz, a spirited violinist, work together to create a music program for the city’s public school system as part of his platform for education reform, the sparks are combustive. But will voters give this pair a thumbs up? It’s Been You: Marketing manager Tiana Holliday snags her dream job at an award-winning agency in New York City, but cocky playboy Nathaniel Lawson, her old grad-school nemesis, is her new officemate. When their competition to manage a lucrative sports car account and nab a big promotion erupts into an all-out battle of desire, they discover that challenging each other outside the boardroom is even more satisfying than advertised. Her Knight in Black Leather: When his father falls ill, Michael Brant returns to the hometown he ditched years ago. His first night in town, he rescues a damsel in distress who has no clue about his family ties. But Cat can’t continue to treat him like a one-night stand when Michael’s dark past surfaces, putting her in danger. Can he find a way to keep her safe without risking his heart? Worth the Wait: Playboy and fitness instructor Jared Patterson seems like the perfect candidate to help Tasha Smith lose her long-held V-card. But what starts out as a one-time thing quickly turns into an affair neither wants to stop—even when it might get in the way of their futures. The Bargain: Ladies’ man Michael Kingston desperately wants to atone for past mistakes, but his younger brother refuses to speak to him. So Michael strikes a deal with tomboy Shannon Mahoney: If she gets Drew to hear him out, Michael will mentor Shannon in how to win his brother’s heart. But what’s the next step when two unlikely allies discover they enjoy each other’s company far more than either expected? Maybe love isn’t about reinventing yourself after all. Nothing’s Sweeter than Candy: Brice Coleman has long enjoyed the spoils of the battle of the sexes, one female conquest at a time. That is, until he meets Candace Brown, who, after two failed relationships, no longer believes in Prince Charming. What’s a guy got to do to heal his woman’s broken heart? Sensuality Level: Sensual

Rebuilding Fiscal Institutions in Postconflict Countries

By: Ms.Rina Bhattacharya,Mr.Benedict J. Clements,Mr.Sanjeev Gupta,Mr.Shamsuddin Tareq,Mr.Alex Segura-Ubiergo,Mr.Todd D. Mattina

This paper discusses experiences in reestablishing fiscal management in postconflict countries. Building fiscal institutions in postconflict countries essentially entails a three-step process: (1) creating a legal or regulatory framework for fiscal management; (2) establishing or strengthening fiscal authority; and (3) designing appropriate revenue and expenditure policies while simultaneously strengthening revenue administration and public expenditure management. Based on experiences in 14 postconflict countries, the paper reviews the challenges in rebuilding fiscal institutions in these countries, and identifies key priorities in the fiscal area following the cessation of hostilities.

Alphabet Antics

By: Rina Robinson

In this real and insightful narrative, Rina has beautifully captured rural life as she writes about the people in several nearby country towns. In these pages, we follow the twists and turns of lives that intersect and flow in the community. Strangers meet. Friendships are made. Family ties are tested and relationships break down. Long hidden secrets are skilfully revealed. Even travellers just passing through leave their own mark - at times bringing resolution and sometimes conflict. Rina deftly weaves the various threads of her character's lives to a culmination that will satisfy and surprise. With unerring clarity, Rina delights with her wit and perception as she peels back the layers of each person. She doesn't shy away from the realities of life, but provides light and shade. On every page, we find familiarity in the deftly crafted characters - the town busybody, the hairdresser, the travelling salesman and the local women. Rina explores the depths and complexity of life with subtle humour and sharp observation, delivering an lively debut novel. This is no white-washed view of life, but includes the full gamut of the human experience; mystery, intrigue, revenge, lust and betrayal - along with unlikely bonds, comedy, devotion, love and honour.

Third Wednesday Poets

An Australian Women's Poetry Anthology

By: Louise Berry,Jo Tregellis,Linda Ruth Brooks

Every third Wednesday we meet. Every third Wednesday we attempt to hone our craft. Stretching beyond rhyme, metre and description to tanka, cento, haiku, and abecedarium while we sip frothy cappuccinos, or perhaps indulge in cake, we go on a journey. When the blending of our words seems like rubbish, we laugh. When they fall flat, we groan and move on. Every now and then, someone will read a poem and we all sit still, poised in silent surrender to the soaring of our spirits and we are grateful for the places that poetry takes us.' Most pleasing of all is the profusion of poetic styles and forms... Running through all this are familiar and consistent themes: the power of the wry observation, condensed into verse, to remind us of life's absurdities ... the inescapable nature of loss ... and landscapes transformed by poetic eyes ... Read these poems and enjoy the verbal worlds created for you by these five poets. David Musgrave, Poet, writer, lecturer, publisher. '...the individual poems [give] a feeling of wholeness and a sense of egalitarian endeavour.' Mark Liston--Newcastle Cafe Poet 2012/13
