      Book Description

      Are you encouraging teamwork and self-confidence in your classes? Does your curriculum promote positive social interaction, as well as psychomotor and cognitive learning?

      Cooperative Learning in Physical Education helps you teach students to value each other through positive interdependence, individual accountability, and collaborative skills.

      The book explains why and how you should develop cooperative learning lessons. You'll learn

      • about the benefits of cooperative learning and its positive impact on your students;

      • how to use cooperative activities to supplement or substitute for your existing curriculum;

      • how to modify existing activities in your curriculum by using cooperative structures; and

      • how to use structures and prescribed goals to develop new activities.

      The book also provides 45 activities that encourage participants to interact verbally and physically and work together to solve various movement tasks. A handy Activity Finder grid helps you locate the right activity for the right situation. Activities are listed according to these areas:

      • Movement concepts and basic motor skills

      • Dance

      • Games

      • Physical fitness

      • Gymnastics

      Each activity is goal directed so learning occurs in the psychomotor, cognitive, and affective domains. The variations provided for each activity will help you meet the needs of more students and challenge them in different ways.

      5 out of 5 stars Foreign Language Fun for All Ages.......2000-05-16

      I have used this book for teaching both English (ESL) and foreign languages, in the U.S. and overseas. Every activity in the book truly works. The activities are rated by the language difficulty required, and by the skill targeted. The activities are explained clearly. Now I am buying it for the entire FL and ESL departments, because they always borrow my own copy! If you are familiar with TPR teaching,this is your guide.

        From the supplier: Dance education's reliance on group activities for task accomplishment and goal attainment underscores the importance of developing social skills among dance students. Cooperative learning can help dance educators achieve this by providing plans of action geared towards maximizing student participation in group activities and enhancing each one's potential to learn. The success of cooperative learning will depend on careful planning and organization. It will also provide dance educators opportunities to address student diversity, integrated curriculum and other current educational issues.

                                In this history of American agriculture over the last century, Mr. Hurt shows how farm men and women increasingly looked to the federal government--for technical information, regulation of business practices, and intervention in the agricultural economy. He surveys the major policy changes that helped shape farming both as a business and as a way of life. The best history of twentieth-century American agriculture I've ever read. A fine, fine book. --Peter A. Coclanis

                                4 out of 5 stars Is There a Future in Farming?.......2005-11-16

                                In his book, Problems of Plenty: The American Farmer in the Twentieth Century, R. Douglas Hurt explores the issues surrounding farmers' dependency on government subsidies to survive. I like the book because it is organized in an orderly, reader-friendly manner and Hurt also remains neutral while using the history of farming to raise many controversial issues, but he does not cover potential solutions and is lacking important information and data on non-agricultural issues. The book does a great job explaining why farm policy is what it is today.The book was a great source for my class work and helped me to understand how some of the current farming techniques and policies were developed.

                                5 out of 5 stars An intriguing discussion.......2003-02-08

                                This survey of the problems of the American farmer in the 20th century exposes how rapid technological and scientific change brought both prosperity and new challenges to the farming community. Problems Of Plenty focuses on farmers' dependence on the federal government, the special challenges of increased productivity, and how the government handled the growing problems of surplus. An intriguing discussion.

                                        This book provides the first in-depth analysis of how four innovative Chinese electronics enterprises-the Stone Group, the Legend Computer Group, the Founder Group, and the China Great Wall Computer Group-transformed the Chinese computer industry over the past decade. It explains how indigenous Chinese business enterprises that grew up during the era of economic reform gained the high-technology capabilities and modern marketing know-how to compete domestically and internationally with powerful foreign multinationals. Through case studies based on first-hand access to company records and personnel, the author reveals how, building on technological capabilities accumulated during the central planning era, the institutional transformations of the economic reform era unleashed a unique pattern of organizational learning and innovative enterprise. The author also draws out the implications of the developmental experience of the Chinese computer electronics sector for understanding the institutional and organizational foundations for a successful transition from a centrally planned economy toward a market-oriented one.

                                        4 out of 5 stars Insightful!.......2001-03-16

                                        Chinese tech firm is an oxymoron, right? Not at all, according to this intriguing work by the late professor Qiwen Lu. This book, fascinating at times, offers an in-depth look at four successful Chinese tech enterprises. Taking each of the four as a case study, Lu thoroughly illustrates the challenges facing a bureaucracy attempting to break into a fast-changing industry. In spite of its good points, Lu's book isn't perfect. The text is laden with jargon, and at times it's difficult to understand exactly how these enterprises are organized. Still, there's plenty to like about this book. We at getAbstract recommend it to anyone interested in emerging economies, technology or international trade, or to anyone willing to have their expectations overturned.

                                        4 out of 5 stars brilliant but tragic.......2000-12-01

                                        This book is the product of a remarkably well informed observer, packed full of insights that anyone interested in the Chinese economy and in high technology should know. Qiwen was a real insider in China, Harvard educated and with extraordinary connections in China. Unfortunately, Prof. Lu died just prior to its publication. I believe it was his first book. The loss is incalculable.

                                        2 out of 5 stars some interesting stuff, but..........2006-08-10

                                        there's some interesting stuff in here, particularly in the area of computer forensics. but the book jumps all over the place. it starts with an good story of a real forensic raid (i beleive just the names were changed to protect the innocent), but abruptly switches to entirely unrelated situations. it eventually drops the storyline altogether, leaving you wondering how it ended and what the aftermath was.

                                        5 out of 5 stars Crumbs left behind.......2005-11-12

                                        This book is fascinating. The style of writing allows you to go inside the minds of corporate fraud offenders. In order to do the crime it fosters accomplices along the way. The amazing thread is that the criminals have their scheme planned out but they forget one critical element, there's always someone that can find the trail that's left behind. Computer fingerprints. I thought that the book was eloquently written and I walked away with a clear understanding of corporate criminal fraud and what criminals will do for greed.

                                        5 out of 5 stars Two thumbs up!.......2005-06-13

                                        This book was recommended to me by a coworker when I was working at one of the big four in the area of data mining. I was at first skeptical of the depth of its IT specifics but quickly realized that between the gripping lines of adventure the author skillfully embedded vital knowledge that's critical for anyone who wants to get the insight of corporate systems, IT infrastructures, and how they work together. In the format for a novel, the author took me on an exciting and informative ride in the world of corporate forensic investigation.

                                        1 out of 5 stars not what i expected.......2005-03-03

                                        boring and not in depth. if you are looking for an adventure, this is not the book for you.

                                        4 out of 5 stars Interesting reading.......2004-11-02

                                        Security literature is filled with titles on procedures, processes, and details of performing forensic investigations. Despite its title, this book is not another one. Equal parts autobiography, mystery, biography, and action thriller, the book is an overview of the cases and characters with which the author, a forensic investigator at Deloitte and Touche, has been involved.

                                        In chapter after chapter, the reader receives a high-level view of the tools and technologies used in forensic investigations, then learns the inner workings of specific corporate frauds. These cases range from garden-variety frauds to cybercrime.

                                        One fascinating chapter explores the disposition of a bank account dormant since the Holocaust and how forensic investigators cracked the case 60 years after the fact. It describes how a large group of investigators went to Switzerland to determine the beneficiaries of dormant World War II-era Swiss bank accounts. The chapter details methodology used to retrieve documents and to discover what was hidden and who was entitled to it.

                                        Geared for management-level readers without much technical background, the book spares the reader byte-by-byte details on forensic evidence gathering and handling. Story after story gives readers a very accessible account of how investigators detected fraud, misuse, and a wide range of other corporate criminality. With its real-life drama, the book is both an enjoyable and instructive read.
