Описание: The author wishes to offer you more than the standard fare of Sex and Violence that normally comes with your popcorn, burgers and fries. He is betting you have been hankering for a little courage and love, spiced with pride and faithfulness, and that you might find a turn to nobility and truth more to your tastes.

We will examine 'EDISON' with Spencer Tracy and David Mamet's 'OLEANNA'. James Coburn will take us dancing and prancing through death and danger as 'OUR MAN FLINT' and we will have a front row seat to Klaatu's stern lecture to humanity in THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL'. After a round trip through 'THE FORBIDDEN KINGDOM' with Jackie Chan and Jett Li, we will at length settle down to a glass of milk and a slice of apple pie with 'YOUNG TOM EDISON'. Finally, with all this under our belt, we might at last find ourselves meditating and contemplating upon a route TOWARD A NEW CINEMA...

Описание: An unrivalled account of the American Civil War from the Confederate perspective. One of the most compelling personal narratives of the Civil War, "Mary Chesnut's Diary" was written between 1861 and 1865. As the daughter of a wealthy plantation owner and the wife of an aide to the Confederate President, Jefferson Davis, Chesnut was well acquainted with the Confederacy's prominent players and-from the very first shots in Charleston, South Carolina-diligently recorded her impressions of the conflict's most significant moments. One of the most frequently cited memoirs of the war, "Mary Chesnut's Diary" captures the urgency and nuance of the period in an epic rich with commentary on race, status, and power within a nation divided.

Описание: Unless we believe that those who have more are inherently superior to those who have less, we should be troubled by the fact that patterns of achievement are often fairly predictable, particularly with respect to students race and class. In Creating the Opportunity to Learn, Wade Boykin and Pedro Noguera help navigate the turbid waters of evidence-based methodologies and chart a course toward closing (and eliminating) the academic achievement gap. Turning a critical eye to current and recent research, the authors present a comprehensive view of the achievement gap and advocate for strategies that contribute to the success of all children. Boykin and Noguera maintain that it is possible to close the achievement gap by abandoning failed strategies, learning from successful schools, and simply doing more of what the research shows is most effective. Success is founded on equity, but equity involves more than simply ensuring students have equal access to education; equity also entails a focus on outcomes and results. If we want to bring about significant improvements in those outcomes, we have to do more to address the context in which learning takes place. In short, we must create schools where a child s race or class is no longer a predictor for how well he or she might perform.
