Sherri Messersmith’s successful hardcover franchise is expanded with the new softcover P.O.W.E.R. series. The conversational writing style, practical applications, innovative student resources and student friendly walk through of examples that users of the hard cover books noted and appreciated are also found in the pages of the P.O.W.E.R. series. The P.O.W.E.R. FrameworkWhat makes P.O.W.E.R. a unique tool for the classroom? A major challenge in developmental courses is that students at this level struggle with basic study skills and habits. Maybe this is one of their first college courses or perhaps they are adults returning to school after a long absence. Either way, many of the individuals taking this course don’t know how to be good students. Instructors often don’t have the time, the resources or the expertise to teach success skills AND the math concepts. The new team of Messersmith, Perez and Feldman offer a scientifically based approach to meet this challenge. The P.O.W.E.R.

The MathMaking Connections – Sherri Messersmith is recognized for preparing her students for success by refreshing their knowledge of arithmetic. By helping students see the connection between arithmetic and algebra, Sherri found that her students were more confident in their abilities as they progressed through the course. This classroom tested practice was integrated into the texts so that both instructors and students could benefit. Messersmith accomplishes this by including arithmetic examples for most sections before the use of algebraic examples. Also, the author has developed through classroom use a series of Basic Skills Worksheets that can easily be integrated into the classroom.Presenting Concepts in “Bite Size” Pieces – By breaking down the sections into manageable pieces, the author has identified the core places where students traditionally struggle and then assists them in understanding that material to be successful moving forward. For details on how the author has done this, check out the TOCs for Intro Algebra, PreAlgebra, Intermediate Algebra and the combo book PreAlgebra and Introductory Algebra.Mastering Concepts--With the textbook and Connect Math hosted by ALEKS, students can practice and master their understanding of algebraic concepts.Messersmith is rigorous enough to prepare students for the next level yet easy to read and understand.

The 5th edition of Beginning and Intermediate Algebra by Sherri Messersmith and Nathalie Vega-Rhodes represents the most evolved version of the P.O.W.E.R. series textbooks yet. To each chapter we have added a new Get Ready chapter opener that contains prerequisite/corequisite lessons, with exercises, to prepare students to learn the concepts coming up in the chapter. Also new to this edition are the two academic mindset topics of developing a growth mindset and developing grit. The power (no pun intended) of the Internet is that it allows us to enhance the learning and teaching experience for students and instructors. We can do things that we couldn’t dream of even 10 years ago! That’s where Nathalie Vega-Rhodes comes in. A long-time P.O.W.E.R. math textbook user and outstanding instructor, Nathalie has a lot of experience using digital tools. Better yet, she and Sherri have the same philosophy of teaching, love for students, and belief in addressing all of their students’ needs in the classroom. What makes P.O.W.E.R. a unique tool for the classroom? A major challenge in developmental courses is that students at this level struggle with basic study skills and habits.

Marty Feldman: The Biography of a Comedy Legend

Marty Feldman: The Biography of a Comedy Legend

Robert Ross

Titan Books Ltd
2011
sidottu
Mike Myers thinks he was "a genius", while John Cleese regards him as "a true cultural icon". He was an architect of British comedy, paving the way for Monty Python, and then became a major Hollywood star, forever remembered as Igor in Mel Brooks' Young Frankenstein. A writer, director, performer and true pioneer of his art, he died aged only 48. His name was Marty Feldman, and here, at last, is the fi rst ever biography. Acclaimed author Robert Ross has interviewed Marty's friends and family, including his sister Pamela, Tim Brooke-Taylor, Michael Palin and Terry Jones, and also draws from extensive, previously unpublished and often hilarious interviews with Marty himself, taped in preparation for the autobiography he never wrote. No one before or since has had a career quite like Marty's. Beginning in the dying days of variety theatre, he went from the behind the scenes scriptwriting triumphs of Round the Horne and The Frost Report to onscreen stardom in At Last the 1948 Show and his own hit series Marty. That led to transatlantic success, his work with Mel Brooks, and a five-picture deal to write and direct his own movies. From his youth as a tramp on the streets of London, to the height of his fame in America - where he encountered everyone from Orson Welles to Kermit the Frog, before his Hollywood dream became a nightmare - this is the fascinating story of a key figure in the history of comedy, fully told for the first time.

This is a book that we need now." —Wendy Doniger, Mircea Eliade Distinguished Service Professor of the History of Religions, The University of Chicago

Loose Leaf for Understanding Psychology: 2024 Release

Robert S. Feldman

McGraw-Hill Companies
2024
irtolehti
Understanding Psychology focuses on Students First, to engage students' attention and teach them about the discipline, with the result that students learn the course content and become excited about the field of psychology. Shaped by decades of experience, Dr. Feldman believes that an effective introduction to a discipline must be oriented to students: informing them, engaging them, and exciting them about the field and helping them connect it to their world. It needs to embody the principles of contemporary learning science and present the materials in a way that draws students into the discipline and stimulates their thinking. Updated to include the latest research from diverse scholars, the author wants every student to see themself in Understanding Psychology. Its modular format and integrated pedagogical tools pair with McGraw Hill's Connect(R) platform to provide a range of resources to both animate students about the field and help them master the content of the course.

An Exquisite Heritage

An Exquisite Heritage

Robert Burrett; Russell Burrett-Feldman

Lulu.com

Zimbabwe has one of Africa's great concentrations of prehistoric art. Scattered throughout the country are a multitude of painted and engraved rock art sites, the product of several societies in the past. Most were painted by San hunter-gatherers (foragers) who lived in this part of Southern Africa over many millennia. It is this, the Foragers' art, which is the prime focus of this copiously illustrated booklet which uses photographs taken at many rock art sites throughout the country. The art is no simple matter; it is not the product of idle minds, but it portrays the complex beliefs and social ceremonies of these now lost communities. We do not pretend to answer all questions and consider this booklet as an introduction to the art. We point to various approaches towards understanding the complex, and sometimes conflicting symbolism of the art. In this we are inspired by historic and contemporary Khoesan ethnography, observations on wild animal animal behaviour, and current regional academic literature on the fascinating rock art of Southern Africa. We seek to answer many of the basic questions which we are often asked about the age, technique and meaning of the art. We aim to encourage discussion and deeper appreciation of the art. We must try to understand the art from the perspectives of the people who made it - we must escape from dated and simplistic reductionism based on our own societies' beliefs, symbolism and ceremonies which are often clouded by contemporary concerns. Such an approach is undoubtedly difficult, but it is necessary. This booklet is a challenge to look again at the painted and engraved prehistoric images of Zimbabwe's diverse rock art. Hopefully it will result in a deeper appreciation of the art and encourage visitors to get to see these painted canvases. Through promoting a better understanding, we hope to contribute to its preservation and conservation for the appreciation of future generations.

Bring Market Prices to Medicare

Bring Market Prices to Medicare

Robert F. Coulam; Roger Feldman; Bryan E. Dowd

AEI Press
2009
pokkari
Medicare is quickly approaching insolvency, in part because the program pays too much for the services it provides. In Bring Market Prices to Medicare, Robert F. Coulam, Roger Feldman, and Bryan E. Dowd propose a groundbreaking solution: Use market-based arrangements to set prices for Medicare plans. The authors contend that the federal government should pay only the cost of the most economical health plan in each market area. To accomplish this, both traditional fee-for-service (FFS) Medicare and private Medicare Advantage (MA) would submit bids for the government's business; the federal contribution to premiums would be set to equal the lowest bid in each market area. This competitive pricing system would penalize plans that bid too hightheir beneficiaries would pay higher premiumsproviding an incentive for plans to offer their best prices. Meanwhile, low-bidding plans would be rewarded with increased enrollment. Such an approach would reduce Medicare spending by 8 percent, shoring up the program's finances while empowering consumers to make sensible choices about their health care. Establishing a competitive pricing system for Medicare will have drawbacks as well: Beneficiaries in some markets would have to pay more to stay in the FFS Medicare plan, while others would lose generous supplementary benefits currently offered by private MA plans in areas where these plans are overpaid. Coulam, Feldman, and Dowd contend that the best way to address public and political opposition to this crucial reform is not to downplay its challenges but rather to consider carefully the needs and expectations of beneficiaries and establish a gradual transition that would alleviate most of the disruption beneficiaries might otherwise experience. Bringing market prices to Medicare is not merely a matter of political strategy or tactics; it will require a fundamental shift in Americans' attitudes toward health care, starting with the realization that Medicare's current payment methods cannot be sustained.
