Free Download Philip Hubbard, Mike Levy, "Teacher Education in CALL"
English | 2006 | pages: 369 | ISBN: 9027219680 | PDF | 1,6 mb
This volume addresses the need for a more considered and systematic approach to teacher education and training in Computer-Assisted Language Learning (CALL), in all its forms: Technology Enhanced Language Learning, Network-Based Language Learning, Information and Communication Technologies for Language Learning and so on. The 20 chapters of the book are divided into five parts: (1) foundations of teacher education in CALL; (2) CALL degree programs; (3) CALL pre-service courses; (4) CALL in-service projects, courses, and workshops; (5) alternatives to formal CALL training. The chapters cover a broad range of levels, environments, countries, and languages. Rather than simply offering inspired speculation, the chapters provide practical information to readers, reporting on what has actually been done in a wide variety of teacher education programs and courses around the world. In many cases, the chapters describe how programs and courses have evolved, and include either qualitative or quantitative research, or both, to inform the structure of CALL courses, tasks and activities.

Free Download Lachlan N. Roberts, "Taiwan: Economic, Political and Social Issues"
English | ISBN: 1604568089 | 2009 | 191 pages | PDF | 3 MB
Taiwan's economic, political and societal issues have become major points of interest to countries all over the globe. There has been an ongoing debate on Taiwan independence within the mainstream of domestic politics on Taiwan; political liberalisation and the increased representation of opposition parties in Taiwan's legislature have opened public debate on the island's national identity; a broad popular consensus has developed that the island currently enjoys sovereign independence and - whatever the ultimate outcome regarding reunification or independence - that Taiwan's people must have the deciding voice; public opinion polls consistently show a substantial majority of Taiwan people supports maintaining Taiwan's status quo for the foreseeable future; advocates of Taiwan independence oppose the stand that the island will eventually unify with mainland China This book presents in-depth analyses of such issues such as foreign policy, political reform, and overall economic developments.

Free Download Sustainable Management of Historic Settlements in Asia: Role of Intangible Cultural Heritage by Niyati Jigyasu, Anjali Krishan Sharma
English | PDF (True) | 2024 | 310 Pages | ISBN : 9819767350 | 46.7 MB
The book addresses the contribution of Intangible Cultural Heritage to the sustainable management of historic cities and towns. Through the unique, diverse, and dynamic illustrations from Asia, it provides insights into the interrelationships of intangible and tangible cultural attributes and their significance on the sustainability of these areas. Historic cities and towns, large and small, along with their natural and man-made environments have a distinct identity and embody the values of traditional urban cultures. Evolved by tangible built forms and intangible elements, as cultural practices and expressions- meanings and values attributed to them, they are in a state of continuous change. The built environment acts as a 'place' or a 'site' where most of these expressions are shaped. These areas are significant for their social cohesion and economic stronghold that dates back over generations and centuries. Over the years, there have been many theoretical discussions about the interrelationships of tangible and intangible but is challenging to manage in practice, especially in historic urban areas. There is a lack of understanding of the complexity and pervasiveness of intangible values and their direct relationship with the physical structure of the town/city. This book strives to address the various challenges, emphasising the intricate relationships between the tangible and intangible aspects of historic cities in the Asian context.

Free Download Alan Gallop, "Subsmash: The Mysterious Disappearance of HM Submarine Affray"
English | ISBN: 0752459309 | 2011 | 206 pages | EPUB | 557 KB
In April 1951, the disappearance of HM submarine Affray knocked news of the Korean War and Festival of Britain from the front pages. Affray had put to sea on a routine peacetime simulated war patrol in the English Channel. She radioed her last position at 2115hrs on 16 April, 30 miles south of the Isle of Wight - preparing to dive. This was the last signal ever received from the submarine. After months of searching, divers eventually discovered Affray resting upright on the sea bottom with no obvious signs of damage to her hull. Hatches were closed tight and emergency buoys were still in their casings. It was obvious that whatever had caused Affray to sink, and had ended the lives of all those on board, had occurred quickly. Sixty years later, in this compelling maritime investigation, Alan Gallop uses previously top secret documents, interviews with experts and contemporary news sources to explore how and why Affray became the last British submarine lost at sea - and possibly the greatest maritime mystery since the Marie Celeste.

Free Download Wai-Tong Chien, "Strategies in Evaluation of Complex Health Care Interventions for People with Physical or Mental Health Issues"
English | ISBN: 1606921762 | 2009 | 162 pages | PDF | 6 MB
Strategies in the evaluation of psychosocial health care interventions for people with physical and/or mental health problems are useful and important to practitioners and researchers. However, there is limited evidence in health care journals and information in books about this important topic. The purposes of this edited book are two-fold. First, the book will highlight and discuss a variety of methods used in evaluation research, which are mainly categorised as process and outcome-based evaluation. Second, it will disseminate up-to-date research evidence on a variety of psychotherapeutic, educational and supportive models of psychosocial interventions for people with physical or mental health problems, including those with cancer, heart failure and cardiovascular diseases, schizophrenia, dementia, first-time pregnancy, and paediatric surgery, as well as for their family caregivers. Most of research studies included in this book were randomised controlled trials (RCTs) with repeated measures design. However, a few are focused on not only health outcomes but also the process of the intervention or study. Interestingly, the study populations in these research reports consisted of people in different stages of life-span development, ranging from young children undergoing surgery (Chapter 2), adolescents and adults with schizophrenia (Chapter 4), women with first-time pregnancy (Chapter 5), to older people with dementia (Chapter 7), as well as their adult family members and parents. Discussion and evaluation of strategies for multi-component psychosocial interventions are limited. This edited book, which reports research using different study methods and designs of approaches to psychosocial interventions for different groups of people with physical and/or mental health problems, and also for their family caregivers, offers highly useful empirical evidence, or can be used as a reference guide, for health care practitioners and researchers.
