"The goal," he explains, "is not for us to abandon our studies in economics or education and all become preachers instead. The goal is to live like Jesus in the very soul of society."Culminating in a movement to mobilize prayer on every college and university campus in the United States throughout 2010, God on Campus is an invitation for students to find their place in the story of God today. ![]() Free Download Go Lang in Depth: Guide to program microservices, networking, database and APIs using Go Lang (English Edition) by Bhagvan Kommadi English | December 26, 2024 | ISBN: 9365894808 | 436 pages | MOBI | 8.92 Mb Description ![]() Free Download Global Perspectives on Children's Health Literacy: Intersections Between Health, Education and Community by Rosie Nash, Vaughan Cruickshank, Shandell Elmer English | August 28, 2024 | ISBN: 3031638395 | 368 pages | MOBI | 5.46 Mb This book examines global perspectives of health literacy development to explore the intersections between health, education, and community settings. International health literacy experts provide a collection of important insights and recommendations that are urgently required to inform practice and policy. The impetus for this book is a growing recognition that a siloed approach to supporting health and health literacy exists in many countries. This book addresses a gap in the international literature by presenting solutions that promote ongoing collaboration across settings to redress inequity and optimize global health. Identifying intersections between the settings is critically important to supporting these collaborations. ![]() Free Download Glimmers Journal: Reflect on the Small Moments That Bring You Joy, Safety, and Connection by Deb Dana English | March 4, 2025 | ISBN: 1324082070 | 224 pages | PDF | 1.57 Mb From the conceptualizer of glimmers―prompts to help you savor the micromoments of joy and well-being in your day. ![]() Free Download Giving Church Another Chance : Finding New Meaning in Spiritual Practices By Todd D.

The first half describes the moral theory that Gentile explicitly identifies with actual idealism, according to which all thinking, rather than an exclusive domain of 'practical reason', has a moral character. It is argued that after Gentile's turn to Fascism in the early 1920s, this theory is increasingly conflated with his political doctrine. This entails several major changes that cannot be squared with the underlying metaphysics. The second half of the book develops a more plausible account of Gentilean moral constructivism based on the pre-Fascist idea of reasoning as an internal dialogue. Comparisons and contrasts are drawn with contemporary constructivist doctrines, as well as theories employing dialogical conceptions of reason. The internal dialogue is presented as a device enabling the thinking subject to make objective judgments about real-world problems despite the impossibility of her occupying a fully objective standpoint. Thus actual idealist moral theory is offered as an example of constructivism at its most radical, inviting advocates of less radical varieties to reassess the foundations on which their theories are built. ![]() Free Download Ghost Gear : Poems By Andrew McFadyen-Ketchum 2014 | 79 Pages | ISBN: 155728654X | PDF | 1 MB A working-class intellectual comes of age ![]() Free Download Nabil Yasien Mohamed, "Ghazālī's Epistemology " English | ISBN: 1032517069 | 2023 | 156 pages | EPUB | 2 MB Focusing on Abū Ḥāmid al-Ghazālī (d. 1111) - one of the foremost scholars and authorities in the Muslim world who is central to the Islamic intellectual tradition - this book embarks on a study of doubt (shakk) and certainty (yaqīn) in his epistemology. ![]() Free Download Getting to Know Mobile GIS by Pinde Fu English | February 18, 2025 | ISBN: 1589488075 | 286 pages | MOBI | 14 Mb Getting to Know Mobile GIS empowers readers to creatively use Mobile GIS and drive innovation in this fast-advancing field. ![]() Free Download Getting Textbooks to Every Child in Sub-Saharan Africa : Strategies for Addressing the High Cost and Low Availability Problem By Birger Fredriksen; Sukhdeep Brar; Michael Trucano 2015 | 127 Pages | ISBN: 1464805407 | PDF | 1 MB Textbooks play a key role in enhancing the quality of learning, especially in the context of low-income Sub-Saharan African (SSA) countries characterized by large class-size, poorly motivated and inadequately trained teachers, and short effective school years. There are also high rates of illiteracy among parents and few reading materials at home for the student to bank on. Despite extensive investments by governments, the World Bank and other development partners, the majority of students in primary and secondary schools in SSA still lack the benefit of access to textbooks and the key reason for this shortage is affordability: textbooks are generally much more costly in SSA than in other developing regions. The need to increase access to key learning resources is of particular urgency because most African countries experience low learning outcomes which in part contributes to a high drop-out rate. Only two-thirds of those who enter school reach the final grade and only about half of these master basic numeracy and literacy skills. And although quality improvement depends on many factors inside and outside the school, there is wide agreement that availability of textbooks is both an indispensable and a cost-effective way of improving the quality of the learning process. A recent World Bank study examined the actual costs of textbooks, the scope for cost reduction, the portion of a national budget countries allocate to teaching and learning materials (TLMs) and hurdles in the way of making textbooks available to student. Some interesting findings from the study - - The availability of affordable textbooks to all students could be dramatically improved by devoting an estimated 3 to 4 percent of the primary education budget and 6 to 7 percent of the secondary education budget - The production process " methods, copyright, length of print runs, effective procurement practices " rather than the production costs should be the target of cost saving strategies - The increased integration of ICTs into education in SSA can provide important opportunities for promoting availability of electronic TLMs but electronic TLMs are not a substitute for printed TLMs including textbooks |
