Описание: Standardized assessments test our children, our teachers, our schools,and increasingly, our patience.Your child is more than a score. But in the last twenty years, schools have dramatically increased standardized testing, sacrificing hours of classroom time. What is the cost to students, teachers, and families? How do we preserve space for self-directed learning and development,especially when we still want all children to hit the mark? The Test explores all sides of this problem,where these tests came from, their limitations and flaws, and ultimately what parents, teachers, and concerned citizens can do. It recounts the shocking history and tempestuous politics of testing and borrows strategies from fields as diverse as games, neuroscience, and ancient philosophy to help children cope. It presents the stories of families, teachers, and schools maneuvering within and beyond the existing educational system, playing and winning the testing game. And it offers a glimpse into a future of better tests. With an expert`s depth, a writer`s flair, and a hacker`s creativity, Anya Kamenetz has written an essential book for any parent who has wondered: what do I do about all these tests?
Описание: An NPR reporter and mother of two strips away the anxiety and fake science to deliver an honest, practical, and refreshing view on managing the role of technology in the lives of young kids.

Описание:
We spend a third of our lives sleeping. Yet our dreams, if remembered at all, have been relegated to nothing more than curious anecdotes. While Freud awakened modern interest in the dream, his theory of interpretation undermined the potential insights they had to offer. We now take little from our dream experiences, losing an important source of self-knowledge.
Rodger Kamenetz, author of the national bestseller The Jew in the Lotus, takes us on an adventure into the history and meaning of dreams and the gifts they have to offer. With Kamenetz as guide, readers can explore this mysterious inner realm and learn about its potential to lead us on the path to the soul. Rodger Kamenetz wrote the landmark international bestseller The Jew in the Lotus and the National Jewish Book Award winner Stalking Eljah. He is a Louisiana State University Distinguished Professor of English and religious studies, and a certified dream therapist. He lives in New Orleans with his wife, fiction writer Moira Crone.

We must learn to think in images, the language of dreams. And if we overcome our obsession with interpreting dreams, we can access the truths they offer."--Los Angeles Times
