The book is expected to provide the readers a field guide of teaching approach (comprising pedagogical, technical, relational and other suggestions for teaching) for inclusive e-learning, with a foundation in the research on how students from different cultures and generation groups learn online. This two-year, multi-course-site study, as a first effort to examine online college teaching and learning effective across culture and age, contributed a list of important findings on the following questions: * To what extent are online learning and interaction experiences and performances consistent across varied ethnic/cultural, and age groups and in what ways do they vary? * What online instructional contexts do students and faculty, especially non-traditional and minority students, identify as supporting learning and student success? * What are the relationships between online instructional contexts, online learning performance, and learning success of students with diverse ethnicity/culture and age background? By consolidating the findings for the aforementioned research questions, the researchers of this study have developed a data-driven online instructional design model that can work as a field guide on cross-cultural and intergenerational teaching and learning for online education practitioners. ![]() Free Download Virus Hunters: How Science Protects People When Outbreaks and Pandemics Strike by Amy Cherrix English | September 10, 2024 | ISBN: 0063069547 | 336 pages | EPUB | 11 Mb A propulsive nonfiction look at the elite squads of scientists, doctors, and infectious disease experts who guard the boundary between public health and pandemics and how they gather data via boots on the ground "shoe-leather epidemiology" in order to save lives. ![]() Free Download Ashley Mears, "Very Important People: Status and Beauty in the Global Party Circuit" English | ISBN: 0691227055 | 2021 | 328 pages | EPUB | 5 MB A sociologist and former fashion model takes readers inside the elite global party circuit of "models and bottles" to reveal how beautiful young women are used to boost the status of men ![]() Free Download Madeline Donaldson, "Venus & Serena Williams (Amazing Athletes)" English | 2007 | pages: 34 | ISBN: 0822575957 | PDF | 2,7 mb Describes the life and accomplishments of tennis players Venus and Serena Williams, sisters who turned professional at age fourteen and rose to the top of women's tennis. ![]() Free Download James H. S. McGregor, "Venice from the Ground Up" English | 2008 | pages: 378 | ISBN: 0674027523 | PDF | 2,0 mb Venice came to life on spongy mudflats at the edge of the habitable world.

McGregor recreates this world-turned-upside-down, with its waterways rather than roads, its boats tethered alongside dwellings, and its livelihood harvested from the sea. ![]() Free Download Venezuela: A Petro-State Using Renewable Energies: A Contribution to the Global Debate about New Renewable Energies for Electricity Generation By Germán Massabié (auth.) 2008 | 274 Pages | ISBN: 3531159941 | PDF | 4 MB In spite of the economic role of oil, Venezuela has started developing hydroelectricity since the 1950s. At present, the country is trying to introduce additional renewable energy sources (RES) but still has to overcome a series of hurdles in order to deploy them. Unlike other developing countries, oil countries such as Venezuela do not lack financial means and sometimes show a tendency to solve problems by using money when other approaches could be more helpful. The main goal of this qualitative, comparative policy analysis is to find out whether the availability of oil revenues restraints or favors the adoption of RES. Based on the rentier state theory, Germán Massabié examines the reasons why Petro states try to dispose of their natural wealth to take advantage of non-conventional energy sources. He analyses and interprets primary and secondary data collected in Germany and in Venezuela and draws on interviews with Venezuelan experts, policy makers, and key actors. The study allows a look beyond laws, development programs, and official statements. ![]() Free Download World Bank, "Using Training to Build Capacity: An Evalution of the World Bank's Project-Based and WBI Training" English | 2008 | pages: 148 | ISBN: 0821373781 | PDF | 1,5 mb The World Bank finances about US$720 million in training every year, through both its lending projects and its in-house World Bank Institute (WBI). The evaluation found that while most of the training reviewed resulted in demonstrable participant learning, this learning frequently did not lead to real change in participants' workplace performance. Poor training outcomes most often resulted from training content that wasn't relevant to the needs and goals of the target institutions, or from the trainees' lack of incentives or resources to apply learning in their workplaces. These findings highlight how important it is for training to be embedded in broader capacity-building programs that identify and address organizational and institutional capacity constraints alongside human ones. |
