John Foster, "Musical Notes: A Personal Musical Dictionary" English | ASIN : B08L7215LK | 2020 | 305 pages | EPUB | 8 MB Music is powerful stuff and not to be trifled with. It can bring people together in many ways, whether it be in the form of a chest swelling national anthem full of pomp and ceremony, or as a rallying cry to fan the flames of revolution and protest against the forces of oppression and inequity. It can lull a babe to sleep or help draw a patient from coma. Music gets under our skin, seeping through every pore to take up permanent residence in our souls. It transcends physical boundaries and cuts through our defences with its emotive edge. It's infectious and contagious, capable of bringing the listener to tears, laughter and dance.

Methodological Advances in Educational Effectiveness Research (Quantitative Methodology Series) By Bert P.M. Creemers, Leonidas Kyriakides, Pam Sammons 2010 | 374 Pages | ISBN: 0415481759 | PDF | 3 MB Methodological Advances in Educational Effectiveness Research is an important new work by some of the leading researchers in the field of Educational Effectiveness Research (EER). The book provides a state of the art snapshot of the methodology of EER now and clearly demonstrates the way it is applied in both research and evaluation. It shows how developments in the research methodology area such as the use of multilevel modelling approaches to analyse nested data have promoted the knowledge-base of educational effectiveness. But at the same time, as the authors show, the knowledge-base of educational effectiveness and the attempt to establish theoretical models do paradoxically challenge the development of methodologically appropriate studies including ways of analysing data. Guiding readers though the effective and appropriate use in educational effectiveness of: Longitudinal Studies Experimental Studies Mixed Research Methods Meta-analyses of effectiveness studies Using IRT to measure outcomes and factors Using Generalisability Theory to test the quality of data Multilevel modelling , and Structural Equation Modelling Techniques The authors draw in the expertise of scholars from around the world to show the mathematical background of each technique, the current and future applications, and Specific examples of applying this orientation to help the readers design their own effectiveness studies using specific methodological tools.

How to make pictures and patterns in wood veneers Machine Learning With Go: Leverage Go's powerful packages to build smart machine learning and predictive applications, 2nd Edition by Daniel Whitenack Simone Glanert, Fabien Girard, "Law's Hermeneutics: Other Investigations" English | 2017 | ISBN: 1138123722 | PDF | pages: 270 | 1.2 mb Bringing together leading academics hailing from different cultural and scholarly horizons, this book revisits legal hermeneutics by making particular reference to philosophy, sociology and linguistics. On the assumption that theory has much to teach law, that theory motivates and enables, the writings of such intellectuals as Martin Heidegger, Hans-Georg Gadamer, Jacques Derrida, Paul Ricœur, Giorgio Agamben, Jürgen Habermas, Ronald Dworkin and Ludwig Wittgenstein receive special consideration. As it explores the matter of reading the law and as it inquires into the emergence of meaning within the dynamic between reader and text against the background of the reader's worldly finiteness, this collection of essays wishes to contribute to an improved appreciation of the merits and limits of law's hermeneutics which, it argues, is emphatically not to be reduced to a simple tool for textual exegesis. |
