 Free Download Service-Learning in the Computer and Information Sciences: Practical Applications in Engineering Education By 2012 | 580 Pages | ISBN: 1118100344 | PDF | 17 MB A road map for service-learning partnerships between information science and nonprofit organizationsWhile service-learning is a well-known educational method for integrating learning experiences with community service, it is only now beginning to emerge in computer and information sciences (CIS). Offering a truly global perspective, this book introduces for the first time an essential framework for service learning in CIS, addressing both the challenges and opportunities of this approach for all stakeholders involved?faculty, students, and community nonprofit organizations (NPOs), both domestic and abroad.Service-Learning in the Computer and Information Sciences outlines numerous examples of successful programs from around the world, presenting practical working models for implementing joint projects between NPOs and academia. It provides faculty members with vital insight into how to coordinate projects with a community partner, arms students with real-world problem-solving skills specific to issues faced by NPOs, and gives NPOs the expertise to leverage information technology to improve the overall value of their services. This book:Shows academics how to interact with local and global NPOs for mutually beneficial project partnershipsHelps IS students enhance their classroom experience through community service, preparing them for the workforceExamines the range of available options for service learning in CIS, especially project-based or capstone coursesIncludes case studies from technologically challenged regionsHelps NPOs become better users of technology in such areas as marketing, fundraising, and communicationsContent: Chapter 1 A Framework for Service?Learning in the Computer and Information Sciences (pages 3-22): Brian A.

Free Download Science and the Garden: The Scientific Basis of Horticultural Practice By 2002 | 293 Pages | ISBN: 0632053089 | PDF | 20 MB Most conventional gardening books concentrate on how and when to carry out horticultural tasks such as pruning, seed sowing and taking cuttings. This book is unique in explaining in straightforward terms some of the science that underlies these practices. It is principally a book of 'Why' - Why are plants green? Why should one cut beneath a leaf node when taking cuttings? Why do plants need so much water? But it also goes on to deal with the 'How', providing rationale behind the practical advice. The coverage is wide-ranging and comprehensive and includes the basic structure and functioning of garden plants, nomenclature, genetics and plant breeding, environmental factors affecting growth, methods of propagation and production, pest and disease control, and post harvest management and storage. Published on behalf of the Royal Horticultural Society, this book will be a most valuable text for those sitting the RHS general examination, and horticultural students at certificate and diploma levels; it will also appeal to gardeners, growers and scientists.
