Customer Reviews:
Great stuff for first year teachers.......2007-08-17
This book has a lot of good little tidbits from a successful and experienced teacher. Some of it might seem like no brainers, but there is no way I could have known all of this stuff before going into the classroom.
Simple but Eloquent.......2007-07-06
This book was wonderful. It is short, I finished it in one afternoon, but the way the information was presented was excellent. Each tip is concise but thoughtful. If you are looking for help in one particular area, open the chapter, read through it in 10-30 minutes, and you'll be inspired.
Excellent!.......2006-09-15
This is the best book I've seen for all levels of teachers. Most of the new teacher books are geared for elementary teachers, yet this is full of great ideas and helpful hints for secondary teachers too. It's been very helpful in my first year as a high school teacher. It is full of ideas to help one prepare for all areas of planning and preparation for that first year. I would recommend it to all new teachers.
This is a great book for teachers! .......2005-07-29
I found this book to be practical and inspiring. I am certain that I will read it many times! I loved it!
Every teacher's bible!.......2000-10-26
This is without a doubt the most useful book a teacher, both new and experienced, can have! It is filled with wisdom from a woman who clearly has a passion for teaching and boy is it contagious!Every tip is told in a style I can relate to, with humor and years of experience behind it. I may not have survived my first year of teaching without my "bible" by my side. And now, after several years in the "force" I still re-read it for inspiration and a quick pick-me-up. Thank you Renee Rosenblum-Lowden for creating such a user-friendly, practical, supportive and direct guide/book to help so many teachers like me! And thank you for making a difference in my life!

Diagnosing Organizational Culture Instrument
ASIN: 0787902403 |
Book Description
Let science set the stage
The most valuable ally a change agent could want. Author Edwin Nevis and his coauthors leverage breakthrough behavioral and social science research to arrive at seven surefire methods for investing workers with an all-new mindset. The results: a powerful strategy for influencing behavior, minimizing resistance to change, and sustaining an organization that is continuously adapting and self-renewing. Filled with examples of both successful and failed change efforts -- and with numerous case studies from companies including Motorola and Xerox -- this is one how-to on effecting change you should definitely include in your arsenal.
Customer Reviews:
Definitely worth reading.......2002-02-26
This a really good read. The authors begin from the premise that organizations are now more than ever forced to operate in a climate of change. Their capacity for transformation is therefore increasingly essential for their survival. The authors outline seven strategies for achieving such a transformation: coercion, persuasive communication, participation, structural rearrangement, role modelling, extrinsic rewards and expectancy.
The different chapters are presented and organised in a readily accessible style, and their argument has a powerful intuitive appeal because of the way it resonates with many of our commonplace, day-to-day experiences of organisational culture and change.
If the book has a weakness it is one common to this genre - namely that it deals much more effectively with what should be done than how it should be done. I find their seven strategies much more useful as a diagnostic or descriptive tool - helping to understand change efforts as merely one of several possible approaches - rather than as a prescriptive blueprint for how change can be implemented.

Customer Reviews:
What is the point?.......2007-04-11
I cannot agree with the two previous reviewers. Being a PhD student in design, I have troubles understanding the content and I am confused as to what disciplines or viewpoints are the authors taking (design management, product design, design philosophy, engineering design, self-help ???) when writing the book.
There are lots of instances where the authors are just dropping words without context (complexity, emergence, teleology, etc.) For example, in the second chapter, the authors define what is "true, real and ideal" without discussing the philosophical implications these terms introduced. The book appears to have a lots of unjustifiable claims. The references do not seem to be complete and many important design thinking/philosophy readings are missing. Another issue is that the book contains lots of models and diagrams (70+ figs) which cannot be justified (maybe just for visualization).
I don't think it is an introduction to the design way. It can serve as a general non-fiction reading but certainly fail to describe or explain the design way.
Great book.......2006-11-14
I totally recommend this book and Stolterman's other book - Thoughtful Interaction Design - one of the best books I have read as a (interaction) design student
Design.......2003-03-10
This is an important book. The authors build upon a concept of design I learned from C.West Churchman. The show how the complex processes unfold. Mostly, they tell us there is a new way to think, when trying to make change.
I recommentd this book to decision makers, business and governement, local, national and international studetns and others concerned with change.
It is a book of our times.

Book Description
This volume brings together a distinguished, international list of scholars to explore the role of the learner's intention in knowledge change. Traditional views of knowledge reconstruction placed the impetus for thought change outside the learner's control. The teacher, instructional methods, materials, and activities were identified as the seat of change. Recent perspectives on learning, however, suggest that the learner can play an active, indeed, intentional role in the process of knowledge restructuring. This volume explores this new, innovative view of conceptual change learning using original contributions drawn from renowned scholars in a variety of disciplines.
The volume is intended for scholars or advanced students studying knowledge acquisition and change, including educational psychology, developmental psychology, science education, cognitive science, learning science, instructional psychology, and instructional and curriculum studies.

Book Description
In this era of corporate downsizing and cost cutting, thousands of people are looking to home-based businesses for income and job security. For the creative person, a career in crafts can be both fulfilling and profitable. Professional craft designer and successful craft entrepreneur Sylvia Landman has written the definitive guide for those wishing to start or expand a home-based craft business.
Crafting for Dollars is a step-by-step guide for woodworkers, quilters, knitters, and all other craftspeople wanting to establish an independent livelihood creating the crafts they love. It provides solid business guidelines and practical advice on establishing and maintaining a successful craft-based profession. Landman includes interviews with successful crafters who share their varied experiences in developing a business plan, organizing an efficient home office, and maximizing sales at craft fairs and trade shows. Among those profiled are:
·Bonnie Boots who sells doll patterns by mail-order
·Debi Linker who started a designer fashion fabric store in 1969, and now employs over 125 people
·Crochet enthusiast Gwen Blakely Kinsler who organized the First Annual Crochet Conference
·Joe and Kathy Lamancusa who built a strong marriage and business designing programs for craft manufacturers
Landman describes the myriad roles a craft entrepreneur must play in order to keep a small business alive. She addresses some of the difficult situations that can arise when one works from home. Issues such as child care, distractions, and interruptions are all challenges that need to be recognized and handled with care. Also included are tips on how to separate personal and professional tasks within the home, and how to maintain creativity and motivation.
Customer Reviews:
Old but Good.......2004-06-06
This book is a bit outdated (has nothing about internet marketing, for example), but it has good solid information. I enjoyed the references section. The author clearly knows the industry and enlightened me on many points. A very practical book.
A must for crafters!!.......2002-01-23
This book is a great handbook for anyone who wants to turn their hobby/talent into a profitable business. Most helpful are the resource sections, that help the reader locate valuable contacts in the craft business. Published by Prima Publishing.
A must for professional crafters.......1998-03-23
Ms. Landman explains all the aspects of selling your works in this book. Very detailed and simple to understand, she takes you through the process from beginning to growing that craft business. I don't know where my business would be without her invaluable time-saving techniques. The positive voice she gives each area inspires you to get to work!

Customer Reviews:
Way too basic if you have restaurant or marketing background.......2005-05-11
I have two issues with this book: First, the information is far too basic to be of use to anyone with even minimal restaurant and/or marketing experience. For instance, the authors use highlight boxes to define ultra-basic terms like "discount pricing" (even the definitions are obvious: "pricing ... to generate more customer traffic.")
The second problem I have is that the authors and publisher misrepresent what this book is about. If you look at the chapter titles, this book is nothing more than a simplistic how-to-open-a-restaurant book - yet they are selling it as a marketing guide for owners and managers.
Here's some examples of chapter titles - Does this sound like an oversimplified start-up guide?
Chapter 1: What am I getting in to?
Chapter 2: Location: Where am I going to put his place?
Chapter 4: Who are my customers?
Chapter 5: Menu Development
Chapter 6: How much do I charge for this stuff?
Unless you have zero business know-how and absolutely no restaurant experience this is DEFINITELY a book not to waste your money on.
Wow.......2004-03-18
This is a complete and comprehensive book, outlining and explaining every important detail or owning/managing a restaurant.
There is no other book available with the information this book contains. It is up to the minute with the newest technology available to the business.
If there is one book to get on this subject, this is it.
Restaurant Marketing.......2004-01-13

Book Description
Since the early 1980s it has been recognized that a firm's resources, capabilities and competencies help it gain a competitive advantage, that in turn produces higher performance. This resource-based view of the firm has been an important development in the field of strategic management. It explains why some organizations perform better than others and shows that leveraging, both tangible and intangible, resources is necessary to gain a sustainable competitive advantage. Bringing together contributions from multiple perspectives this book examines the management of strategic resources. First, the book discusses resource strategy and firm performance - how resources lead to competitive advantage and how firm resources interplay with the firm strategy to produce specific outcomes. Second, it addresses the development, commitment and governance of firm resources - how firms develop critical resources, including the especially difficult development of intangible resources such as tacit knowledge, internal networks and the creation of new intellectual capital. Finally, attention is focused on the problems involved in the transfer of resources and skills in cooperative strategies such as strategic alliances, and the allocation of resources to produce innovation. The resource-based view of the firm is a valuable way of analyzing and understanding firm strategies and performance. The contributions in this book provide an important in-depth view of how strategic resources can be developed and leveraged to create value in organizations.
