The Sex Lives of College Students

The Sex Lives of College Students

Sandra L Caron; Clive M Davis

Maine College Press, Inc.
2021
pokkari
In this third edition of The Sex Lives of College Students results are presented of more than a 100-question human sexuality survey administered over the past three decades (from 1990 to 2020) to thousands of college students ages 18-22. The goal is to better understand their sexual attitudes and behaviors, as well as trends. The findings raise awareness and provide perspective about students' understanding of sex matters and related difficult issues, and tell us we still have a long way to go before people own their sexuality. The survey reinforces the fact that young adults are generally comfortable pursuing sexual relationships, but often fail to openly discuss sexual issues. Some of the results suggest that the double standard is alive and well, as when more college women than men say that love is important in sex. The Sex Lives of College Students provides a springboard for honest dialogue about the role of sexuality in people's lives and a forum for more public discussion of private parts.

CECILIA is a Literary Classics & Author Academy Award Winning Book. Insightfully penned, with a plot that sizzles.Set in a post-apocalyptic future, Vitus, the last surviving city, maintains dominance by exterminating surrounding villages and enslaving the young men. Because of Vitus's oppression, the Goddess of Light is dying. The last bastion of goodness keeping her alive is the village of Plockton, nestled deep within the Plockton Forest. When this village falls victim to a raid, the Goddess pours her remaining light into the lone survivor, eighteen-year-old Cecilia.Unaware of the precious light that she is carrying inside, Cecilia makes the bold decision to rescue her brothers. What starts out as a desire to save loved ones, becomes an epic quest, thrusting Cecilia front and center in the ultimate battle between good and evil.The Cecilia Series is an epic love story between a headstrong young woman who refuses to accept the status quo of her fractured world and an emotionally bankrupt assassin struggling to find his humanity.Previously published as Cecilia ISBN 978-0-9991891-0-8

What meanings do your students have for key mathematics concepts? What meanings do you wish them to have? Creating a Language-Rich Math Class offers practical approaches for developing conceptual understandings by connecting concrete, pictorial, verbal, and symbolic representations. The focus is on making mathematics memorable instead of on memorizing.You’ll learn strategies for introducing students to math language that gives meaning to the terms and symbols they use every day; for building flexibility and precision in students’ use of math language; and for structuring activities to make them more language-rich. This second edition also provides strategies for helping students to at times be quiet and listen to their peers; for purposefully using language to introduce students to more complex mathematical symbolism and algebraic properties; and for using writing prompts to zoom in on the meanings that individual students have given to the language-rich experiences.Appropriate for elementary teachers and instructional coaches, the book also includes features such as Investigations to Try and Questions for Reflection to help you incorporate these ideas into your practice. In addition, there are Blackline masters of game cards and puzzles, which can also be found on our website for free download at http://www.routledge.com/9780367759957.

Public Relations as Public Diplomacy

Public Relations as Public Diplomacy

Sandra L. Braun

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2021
nidottu
This is a study of the Royal Bank of Canada’s Monthly Letter, which was initially created in 1920 as a traditional economic newsletter and later evolved quite serendipitously into a publication marvel when, in 1943, it came under the influence of John Heron, journalist and publicist, gaining mass appeal both domestically and abroad.This concise history documents the inception, development and rise to popularity of the Monthly Letter, telling the untold story of how a corporate newsletter became a tool of international public diplomacy. The purpose of this writing is to demonstrate the entanglement of the fields of public diplomacy and public relations and to offer a more palatable conceptualization of them as two discrete, but necessary, parts of a whole. It acknowledges the varied soup of contested terminology which surrounds the field of public diplomacy (e.g. corporate diplomacy, cultural diplomacy and economic diplomacy). This work conceptualizes public diplomacy and public relations as two parts of a whole in which the sum is greater than its individual parts, juxtaposing the two fields in relation to one another, diminishing neither.The contents of this work provide a broad overview of the fields of public diplomacy and public relations that could serve as an introduction and discussion point for students and scholars in both fields and offers a specific case study around which lively discussion and additional study can ensue.

Wisdom takes time to achieve. The more we experience life, the more vibrant our tapestry. Many threads intertwine with faith and fate to weave our life's tapestry kaleidoscope of colors. This story begins with seven dragon families living on the planet Mabon, who are slowly rebuilding their population after losing so many when evil visited their original home planet of Ostara. Dragon Guardians speak of a prophecy-one day the evil will find them again. This prophecy also speaks of a savior who will defeat evil when it returns. The Guardians believe the Aunia dragon named Maia is this savior. Told from autobiographical perspectives of the primary characters, learn how the prophecy comes true in ways feared yet unimagined. After barely escaping the battles of Mabon, Maia aimlessly floats through space before crashing to earth during a time when life on the planet was still young. Maia and her companion watch as life on earth grows, especially that of humanity. Missing Mabon and all the special friendships she knew, Maia is Guardian to seven dragon eggs: each representing the last remaining dragon families. Executing a plan to deliver an egg to each of the seven continents, Maia's companion weaves a spell that will allow each dragon hatchling to live amongst the humans in human form. They thought all the variables had been considered. But as many humans know, life has its own ideas. And when life twists and turns unfold, sometimes all we have is faith in ourselves to meet the challenges as they inevitably come. Throughout the unfolding story is the weaving of love, loss and betrayal, fulfilling duty while mired in anger and sadness, forging new friendships, and ultimately learning how to live again.

My Dearest Child, I wish it were possible for me to be there with you; becoming your father meant everything to me. But this is not going to happen. Your mother does promise that you will get this letter when she feels you are old enough to read and understand it. I don't have the words to express how much I will miss not being a part of your life. I know with your mother's guiding hand, you will grow into the adult any parent will be proud of. I am taking the only way I know how at this time to try and give you some explanation. If you ever get in a jam or your back is against the wall, and I don't know if this will help or hurt, but if you ever do, look for Jenny. She might have the answer. I love you.Dad

The Kings of Mississippi

The Kings of Mississippi

Sandra L. Barnes; Benita Blanford-Jones

Cambridge University Press
2019
sidottu
Kings of Mississippi examines how a twentieth-century black middle-class family navigated life in rural Mississippi. The book introduces seven generations of a farming family and provides an organic examination of how the family experienced life and economic challenges as one of few middle-class black families living and working alongside the many struggling black and white sharecroppers and farmers in Gallman, Mississippi. Family narratives and census data across time and a socio-ecological lens help assess how race, religion, education, and key employment options influenced economic and non-economic outcomes. Family voices explain how intangible beliefs fueled socioeconomic outcomes despite racial, gender, and economic stratification. The book also examines the effects of stratification changes across time, including: post-migration; inter- and intra-racial conflicts and compromises; and, strategic decisions and outcomes. The book provides an unexpected glimpse at how a family's ethos can foster upward mobility into the middle-class.

Poetic Inquiry

Poetic Inquiry

Sandra L. Faulkner

Routledge
2019
sidottu
Poetic Inquiry: Craft, Method and Practice examines the use of poetry as a form of qualitative research, representation, and method used by researchers, practitioners, and students from across the social sciences and humanities. It serves as a practical manual for using poetry in qualitative research through the presentation of varied examples of Poetic Inquiry. It provides how-to exercises for developing and using poetry as a qualitative research method.The book begins by mapping out what doing and critiquing Poetic Inquiry entails via a discussion of the power of poetry, poets’, and researchers’ goals for the use of poetry, and the kinds of projects that are best suited for Poetic Inquiry. It also provides descriptions of the process and craft of creating Poetic Inquiry, and suggestions for how to evaluate and engage with Poetic Inquiry. The book further contends with questions of method, process, and craft from poets’ and researchers’ perspectives. It shows the implications for the aesthetic and epistemic concerns in poetry, and furthers transdisciplinary dialogues between the humanities and social sciences.Faulkner shows the importance of considering the form and function of Poetic Inquiry in qualitative research through discussions of poetry as research method, poetry as qualitative analysis and representation, and Poetic Inquiry as a powerful research tool.
