How Children Fail by John Holt (Classics in Child Development)

In his groundbreaking book John Holt, draws upon his observations of children both in school and at play to identify ways in which our traditional educational system predestines our young people for failure.
 
 
Holt argues that children fail primarily "because they are afraid, bored, and confused." This, combined with misguided teaching strategies and a school environment that is disconnected from reality and "real learning", results in a school system that kills children’s innate desire to learn.
 
 
Description:
First published in the mid 1960s, How Children Fail began an education reform movement that continues today. In his 1982 edition, John Holt added new insights into how children investigate the world, into the perennial problems of classroom learning, grading, testing, and into the role of the trust and authority in every learning situation. His understanding of children, the clarity of his thought, and his deep affection for children have made both How Children Fail and its companion volume, How Children Learn, enduring classics.

English Channel

1-English Channel 2 Students Book
These award-winning videos follow the same syllabus and formula as Grapevine videos 1 & 2. Each consists of eight comedy vignettes, and some characters (Dennis Cook, Inspector Grant) re-appear from the Grapevine videos.
 
 
English Channel can be used as a supplement to any beginner / elementary course. If it is done quickly, and extra discussion generated from the Teacher's notes it can be used at higher levels also.
 
 
The Student's Book contains tasks for each of the eight videos.
 
 
The episode is then divided into sections (usually four) for detailed exploitation. Each section consists of:
• Pre-tasks (Before you watch)
• Watch the section
• While you watch activity (optional)
• Post-tasks (After you watch)















Which is more difficult in a foreign language? Understanding a person speaking (with gesture, body language, facial expression, background pictures) or understanding a telephone conversation? Listening is a vital skill, but students are doing it blindfolded without the visual information we get in real life. Students can follow a video story via the pictures, and are motivated to watch again to try to get more meaning from the material.


They understand because so much of communication is non-verbal. Above all, classroom video gets students talking. It inspires more conversation than any other method. Surveys of students consistently reveal that it is the most popular stimulus. That is, as long as it is designed for a purpose, short, and interesting. Seven or eight minutes of video is enough for a 90 minute lesson

Writing for Digital Media by Brian Carroll

Fundamentally, this book is about good writing—clear, precise, accurate, filled with energy and voice, and aimed directly at an audience. Writing for Digital Media also addresses all of the graphical, multimedia, hypertextual and interactive elements that come into play when writing for digital platforms.


Learning how to achieve balance and a careful, deliberate blend of these elements is the other primary goal of this text. Writing for Digital Media teaches students not only how to create content as writers, but also how to think critically as a site manager or content developer might about issues such as graphic design, site architecture, and editorial consistency.


By teaching these new skill sets alongside writing fundamentals, this book transforms students from writers who are simply able to post their stories online into engaging multimedia, digital storytellers.
