Excellent source for parents and teachers!.......2000-07-27

This book brings to light the latest research in how kids learn best. It gives parents an idea of how to encourage teachers to incorporate the newest strategies without being confrontational. It shows teachers how to implement the findings into their curriculum and gives lists of possible questions parents may (should) ask. It also gives parents a checklist of what the classroom should look like, how the teacher should be with the children, etc. Finally a book on every child's side. Years of research have proven that children have different learning styles and teachers need to address that. As a mother and teacher, I will be using this book constantly as one of my greatest sources.

Information on second grade that every parent needs to know........2000-08-02

As a single parent, this clear and concise bird's eye view into the second grade classroom helped me understand a lot about the challenges my son will face come September. Since I want to spend my downtime with my six-year-old on activities, not reading academic diatribes, this quick read struck just the right balance for this reviewer. Information packed, practical, and to-the-point--I recommend it highly.

Book Description

The concept of class, along with its correlates -m class interest, class conflict, class consciousness - ramain indispensable tools of historical explanation. Yet research over the last twenty-five years, especially on the histories of England, France, and Germany, has revealed an increasingly poor fit between these concepts and the reality they purport to explain. Some historians have reacted by rejecting class; others have proposed bold revisions in our understanding of it that enable it to encompass new research findings. This study does neither. Instead, building on interpretive method Professor Reddy proposes to replace class with an alternative concept that seeks to capture from a new angle the fundamental relations of exchange and authority that have shaped social life in modern Europe.

High Tech, Maybe. Old News, Yes........1998-12-04

The technologies described in this book have been around for years. Most, if not all, fortune 500 companies have implemented the principles describe in this book. (Telecommuting, data warehouses, the Internet, client/server,...). I would like to know what the future has to offer.

Competitive advantages in new technology by US businesses..........1998-11-20

Efficient use of new technology transforms the mass marketing of the past into to-days highly focused marketing where narrow niches, even individuals, can get personalised attention. The key to this is data warehousing.
