2015
nidottu
Master teacher and education consultant Patricia Vitale-Reilly has a deep understanding of what engagement strategies look like and how to integrate them into classroom practice. "Regardless of age, grade level, geographic location, type of school, discipline, or curriculum," she writes, "A student needs to be engaged in his or her learning in order to excel and succeed."

She suggests a sequence for implementing the principles of teaching that lead to engaged classrooms, including: creating physical, emotional, and cognitive classroom environments for optimal learning building meaningful classroom structure through whole class, small group, and independent instruction applying the principles of choice to content, process, and product connecting students to the world around them through popular culture, technology, and the community. A wealth of classroom anecdotes, examples, and practical tips are woven throughout each chapter to illustrate Patricia's strategies.

Capitalism and Socialism in Cuba

Capitalism and Socialism in Cuba

Patricia Ruffin

Palgrave Macmillan
1990
sidottu
Capitalism and Socialism in Cuba documents the history of the attempts by a small island nation to survive and gain respectability within an everchanging international political economy. Professor Ruffin presents a detailed account of the social, political, and economic forces affecting Cuba's prospects for development under both capitalism and socialism. Part one of the study focuses on Cuba's historical association with capitalism and the relationship that Cuba established with the United States. Part two of the study delineates the nature of Cuba-Soviet relations and deals exclusively with the question of socialist dependency. Professor Ruffin's study is a systematic analysis of the internal (race and class formations) and external (capitalism and socialism) factors that have thus far shaped Cuban history.

This study explores the relationship between Wilde's treatment of sexual subject matter and the development of his literary aesthetics from the earliest volume of poetry through the social comedies which highlighted his career. In addition, the study considers the earliest critical responses to Wilde's works, since they reveal how references to sexual subject matter, particularly to homoerotic themes, were received in Wilde's own period.

The Failure of Economic Diplomacy

The Failure of Economic Diplomacy

Patricia Clavin

Palgrave Macmillan
1995
sidottu
Based on new archival research, this is the first comprehensive study of the failure of international co-operation to combat the Great Depression. The book explores the impact of protectionism, reparations and war debts, as well as the more well known disagreements on monetary issues which, together, helped to prolong the most profound economic depression of the twentieth century. The economic and diplomatic lessons drawn from this period by the major powers - particularly German intelligence as to the deep divisions in Anglo-American economic relations - also provide an important contribution to understanding the origins of the Second World War and the diplomatic and economic order created in its aftermath.
