Assessment by Design

A Practical Approach to Improve Student Learning

By: Sheri H. Barrett

Written with faculty in mind, Assessment by Design is a practical resource that will also be useful to student affairs staff and administrators dedicated to using assessment to improve learning in curricular and co-curricular settings. This book presents the Cycle of Assessment as a framework that supports assessment in service of improving student learning. The framework consists of the following stages: Developing Your Assessment Question; Planning Decisions to Consider; Collecting and Scoring the Data; Analyzing and Discussing Assessment Data; and Report and Act on Assessment Findings. After an introductory chapter that provides an overview of the cycle, the book devotes a chapter to each stage of the cycle. After a concluding chapter, four appendices include helpful rubrics, forms, and exercises.This book uses Action Research ideas to inform local classroom and institutional practices. While the theoretical framework is explained, each part follows through by offering immediate application: Hands-on activities for the readers to perform that directly support the practice of assessment in context, allowing readers to consider and apply the framework in their own programs, classes, and activities.The book emerged from a workshop the author developed and led for many years in both face-to-face and online settings while she was Director of Assessment, Evaluation and Institutional Outcomes at Johnson County Community College (JCCC). Initially developed for JCCC faculty, it was later offered to participants from a variety of schools around the country, 4-year as well as 2-year, and private as well as public.

Sideshow

By: Sheri S. Tepper

On the planet of Elsewhere, the Council had always enforced the governing of each province in the manner the people had chosen, so long as each respected its neighbors' local customs--and so long as the people remained within their homelands. Generations later, inhabitants have begun to question this tradition. The Council has received mysterious messages and reports of strange manifestations across the planet. Now, Enforcer Fringe Owldark has been sent with a small crew of seven, each possessing an unusual talent, to investigate their worst fear--the arrival of the Hobbs Land gods. Free will and the reality of God are just too of the timeless issues this courageous band of humans must confront as they strive to decide if complete tolerance and leaving others alone is evil. . .and what they should do if it is. Vividly imagined and exquisitely rendered, Sideshow is Sheri S. Tepper's most controversial novel yet.

Designing Effective Teaching and Significant Learning

By: Zala Fashant,Stewart Ross,Linda Russell,Karen LaPlant,Jake Jacobson,Sheri Hutchinson

Designing courses to deliver effective teaching and significant learning is the best way to set students up for success, and this book guides readers through the process. The authors have worked with faculty world-wide, and share the stories of how faculty have transformed courses from theory to practice. They start with Dee Fink’s foundation of integrating course design. Then they provide additional design concepts to expand the course blueprint to implement plans for communication, accessibility, technology integration, as well as the assessment of course design as it fits into the assessment of programs and institutions, and how faculty can use what they learn to meet their professional goals.

Nature, Functions, and Limits

By: Kevin M. Clermont,Robert A. Hillman,Sheri Lynn Johnson,Robert S. Summers

How does law work? What can law do and not do? The book addresses the nature of law, its problem-solving functions, and the limits on what law can accomplish.

Your Spirit Guides are waiting around for you to see Aura through the bubble of bullshit. And that is; what keeps you in survival mode. Yes, we’re talking about your consciousness and the fact that it ideally should be awareness of all dimensions. But you’re stuck on One: the 3rd. Our intention is to provide information we’ve been given through Guardian Spirits from source knowledge. This is an up to the moment presentation in one Tiny Little Book., Its a logbook of a lifetime of experience observing Aura. This process is ongoing for the reason we observe it daily and the learning is infinite. Over fifty years ago we begin the journey without internet, scarce reading material, and a desire to learn what those mystifying lights were doing billowing around people and things.

Into Kurdistan

Frontiers Under Fire

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Into Kurdistan

Frontiers Under Fire

By: Sheri Laizer

Into Kurdistan is a journey through the lives of a people without a country. Part travelogue and part political commentary, it portrays both the pride and the oppression of the Kurdish people. Sheri Laizer recounts the drama of a family living close to the border, hearing gunshots and wondering if a favoured son will make it home at night. She shares the companionship of Kurdish women in the mountains, washing in the melted snow. She captures the ambiguity of Kurdish intellectuals entwined in the cultural life of Turkey, a country which refuses to acknowledge the very existence of Kurdish identity. And she paints a vivid picture of the centuries of tradition behind the people who have given the Middle East some of its greatest heroes, from Saladin onwards. Into Kurdistan uncovers the recent atrocities in Iraq, and the systematic persecution suffered by the Kurds in Turkey. In a marvellous blend of political commentary, folktale and sympathetic observation, Sheri Laizer helps us understand the people behind the headlines.

Where You Can Find Me

A Novel

By: Sheri Joseph

A searing exploration of a family's struggle to heal in the wake of unthinkable tragedy A week after his eleventh birthday, Caleb Vincent vanishes with hardly a trace. After a three-year search, he is found living a seemingly normal life under a new name with a man he calls his father. While outwardly stunned with joy at his safe recovery, Caleb's parents and sister are privately scrambling to gather together the pieces of a shattered family. To escape the relentless media attention surrounding her son's return, Caleb's mother, Marlene, decides to flee the country and seek refuge in Costa Rica with Caleb and his younger sister, against her estranged husband's wishes. There Marlene forms a makeshift household with her husband's expat mother and his charming, aimless older brother, all residing in a broken-down hotel perched at the blustery apex of the continental divide. In the clouds of their new home, the mystery of Caleb's time gone unfolds while new dangers threaten to pull him back toward his former life. Where You Can Find Me, a darkly incandescent novel that progresses with page-turning suspense, is sure to establish award-winning author Sheri Joseph as a household name.

The Bride Revealed

An Intimate Look Behind the Wedding Veil

By: Leslie Barton,Sheri Leigh Myers

The otherworldly weirdness of wearing a wedding gown and veil. The multi-generational "getting ready" ritual shared with female friends and family members. Seeing herself in the mirror before the processional music starts. Unanticipated snags and mishaps. The bittersweet realization that marriage means saying good-bye to an old way of life and welcoming a new one. Feeling so sexy on her wedding night! That one bit of wedding-day advice, taken to heart. The Bride Revealed illuminates and celebrates all these aspects of the bridal mystique in striking black-and-white photographs and quotes from contemporary brides. "With both a push-up bra and a body shaper, I was wrapped up tighter than a bull's ass at fly time," is one woman's irreverent observation. Another remembers her brother's poignant advice to take it slow. "Make sure you look at everybody. And let them look at you. When will you ever gather so many people who love you so much? It can go by so fast." The Bride Revealed is an ideal shower gift that will become a bride's treasured keepsake.

Sŏndŏk, Princess of the Moon and Stars

By: Sheri Holman

THE ROYAL DIARIES is pleased to introduce historical novelist, Sheri Holman, who makes her debut on the list with a captivating story of fourteen-year-old Princess Sondok from seventh-century Korea. During the seventh-century, the land which is now Korea was fraught with political and religious intrigue. The country was split into Three Kingdoms, each fighting for supremacy: Silla, Koguryo, and Paekche. Besides the warring kingdoms, there are three religions in conflict: Shamanism, the ancient female-dominated faith wherein Shamanist priestesses wield great power at court, foretelling the future, performing important national rituals, and healing sickness; Buddhism, the contemplative State religion; and Confucianism, a recent import from powerful China.

Integrating Technology in Literacy Instruction

Models and Frameworks for All Learners

By: Peggy S. Lisenbee,Jodi Pilgrim,Sheri Vasinda

This text addresses the changing literacies surrounding students and the need to communicate effectively using technology tools. Technology has the power to transform teaching and learning in classrooms and to promote active learning, interaction, and engagement through different tools and applications. While both technologies and research in literacy are rapidly changing and evolving, this book presents lasting frameworks for teacher candidates to effectively evaluate and implement digital tools to enhance literacy classrooms. Through the lens of Universal Design for Learning (UDL), this text prepares teacher candidates to shape learning environments that support the needs and desires of all literacy learners through the integration of technology and literacy instruction by providing a range of current models and frameworks. This approach supports a comprehensive understanding of the complex multiliteracies landscape. These models address technology integration and demonstrate how pedagogical knowledge, content knowledge, and technological knowledge can be integrated for the benefit of all learners in a range of contexts. Each chapter includes prompts for reflection and discussion to encourage readers to consider how literacy and technology can enable teachers to become agents of change, and the book also features Appendices with annotated resource lists of technology tools for students’ varied literacy needs in our digital age.
