Описание:
By 1848 famine has ravaged Ireland, and London remains undecided about what to do. A shortage of female labour in Australia offers a kind of solution and so, over the following two years, more than 4000 Irish girls are shipped across vast oceans to an unimaginable world in the new colony. On Sunday 28 October 1849, one of these ships, the "Thomas Arbuthnot", sets sail from Plymouth with a cargo of girls under the care of Surgeon-superintendent Charles Strutt. "Not the Same Sky" tells the story of Honora, Julia, Bridget and Anne. It observes them on the voyage, examining their relationship of trust with Charles Strutt, and follows them from Sydney as they become women of Australia, negotiating their new lives as best they can. A stark, poetic intensity gives these young women historical importance and human presence in an elegant and subtle novel suffused with humour.

Описание:
Life Sucks. Big time. Fourteen-year-old Ford Quinn has read The Outsiders, Robert Frost poems, and knows the song lyrics to every single Springsteen song. As he heads into high school, star-gazing poet Ford has fallen hard for an Egyptian princess and become a caddy at an exclusive country club. With an amazing summer ahead of him, what could go wrong?
Everything.
His family can't afford life in the affluent Detroit neighborhood of Kensington Hills, and his dad's get-rich-schemes are getting as old as his mother's fervent self-improvement pop psychology. To top things off, his chances of gaining entry into the popular Lund Gang appears as far away as the stars he sees through the telescope in his bedroom.
Will Ford's quest to earn a caddy scholarship change the soundtrack of his life? Or will his encounters with cruel foils shatter his dreams and ruin his summer of firsts? This quirky, nostalgic coming-of-age novle will take you back to the time of Space Invaders, Rubik's Cube, mixed tapes, and Iranian hostages and immerse in the wonders of growing up in the summer of '80.
Описание: Abstract: This study of the effect of self-modeling of positive affective behaviors on high school students' attitudes toward school employs videotaped behaviors of the subjects exhibiting positive attitude toward school. Exposure to the edited positive behavior videotapes occurred 10 times over a four-week period. The subjects were pre and post-tested using the Study Attitudes Survey, a subscale of the Brown and Holtzman Survey of Study Habits and Attitudes. Results of an analysis of variance were not sufficient to confirm or refute the effectiveness of the self-modeling. Recommendations based on this study include the conducting of additional research in three areas: the modeling of attitudes to increase positive affect, the self-modeling of a range of attitudes with subjects of varying ages and numbers, and the refining of what behaviors are indicative of students' attitudes toward school and the process for evaluation of those behaviors.
