Описание: The False Promises of the Digital Revolution examines what currently goes largely unnoticed because of the many important uses of digital technologies. While many people interpret digital technologies as accelerating the global rate of progress, C. A. Bowers focuses attention on how they reinforce the deep and ecologically problematic cultural assumptions of the West: the myth of progress, the substitution of data for different cultural traditions of wisdom, the connections between print and abstract thinking, the myth of individual autonomy, the conduit view of language that hides how words (metaphors) reproduce earlier misconceptions, and a Social Darwinian justification for colonizing other cultures that is now leading to armed resistance – which, in turn, strengthens the ties between corporations, the military, and the computer science industry. The book also investigates how to understand the cultural non-neutrality of digital technologies; how print and the emphasis on data undermine awareness of the tacit information pathways between cultural and natural ecologies; and how to identify educational reforms that will contribute to a more informed public about the uses of digital technologies.

Torres (Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation), Asi Burak (President, Games for Change); Toby Rowland (MangaHigh); Jocelyn Leavitt (Hopscotch); Krishna Vedati (Tynker); and researchers at BrainPOP and designers from Electric Funstuff (Mission U.S. games). Each chapter concludes with practical lesson plan ideas, games to play (both digital and tabletop), and links to research further. Much of the book draws on the author’s experiences implementing games with his middle school students. Regardless of your teaching discipline or grade level, whether you are a pre-service teacher or veteran educator, this book will engage and reinvigorate the way you teach and how your students learn!
Описание: If developing countries are to reach their development goals, their leaders must muster a firm understanding of the impact of infectious diseases on their people and take prompt action to fix socioeconomic arising from the problems associated with poor health practices. Similarly, international health organizations touted as helpers must make sound financial judgments and proper use of technical resources to improve the overall health and social wellbeing of the population. Developing countries must drastically reduce their dependence on foreign assistance and public officials as well as health experts, and local and international NGOs must enhance communication and their collaboration. Healthcare Management Strategy, Communication, and Development Challenges and Solutions in Developing Countries describes the ways in which health services, public health administration, and healthcare policies are managed in developing countries, and how intercultural, intergroup, and mass communication practices weaken development efforts in those countries. Drawing experiences from international health organizations such as the United Nations Fund for Population (UNFPA), commissioned in poor countries to assist national governments in improving the wellbeing of their citizens, this volume analyzes the spread of infectious diseases and offers communication strategies for the management of such diseases as malaria, HIV Aids, Polio, and others in Somalia, Madagascar, Nigeria, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and India.
