Recent years have seen a decline in craft and creative education in schools and a shift from practical to theoretical learning models in higher education. Young people are leaving school with no idea that craft-based careers are even possible, and graduates of craft-based degree courses are entering the workplace with so few hand skills that their employers must train them from scratch. Where did the idea come from that white-collar work should be rewarded more with money and status than that of a blue-collar worker? Intelligent Hands looks at this phenomenon, the historical precedents that led us here and why hand skills are crucial in education and for lifelong learning. The authors are on a mission to enlighten the uninitiated and persuade the naysayers who dismiss craft as no more than a nice hobby or believe that doing things with your hands is for those who can't use their heads. And for the converted, we offer more grist to your mills, ammunition for funding applications, inspiration for those who plan school curricula and further reading for your specialty. Intelligent Hands brings existing research and information together in an accessible format for those for those who don't have time to trawl through all the information that is already out there. With a brief look at the history of practical education, we have collated some of the research that has been done in disparate fields to show that combining physical ways of learning with the conceptual in education is the way forward. We include the personal stories of ten people who have discovered that working with their hands has improved their quality of life. Through the three sections of the book, we look at how physical laboring became separated from academic study, how we became divorced from the materials that surround us and the important role that the crafts and creativity play in education, not just for the lower streams, but for everyone. In short, how making is a skill for life.
The lazy leopard wants to share the jungle feast but does not want to help to prepare it. Some food is stolen from the feast, making the other animals very angry! Practice doing lots of counting with the animals as they solve the mystery of the naughty thief! "The Story of the Leopard's Spots" is a folktale from Ghana, a country in Africa. Leopards have beautiful spotted coats, so it is hard to see them in the jungle. But the Ashanti people in Ghana do not think that leopards were always spotted! They believe that there was a time when leopards had no spots. Instead, their fur was many shades of gold and amber that shone gold in the sunbeams that shine between the jungle trees. "The Story of the Leopard's Spots" tells us how Leopards got their spots! This book teaches the counting of 1 to 5. CAMathories Company has published a series of Folktale Mathematics(TM) books that teach mathematics in a fun and engaging way using folktales from different parts of the world. "The Story of the Leopard's Spots" is the second book of the Second Series of Folktale Mathematics(TM) "Keep Counting 1 to 5".
"Lurking at the center of our galaxy and in the farthest reaches of space are black holes. Once unseeable and unknowable, these cosmic devourers--sometimes born from the death of stars--swallow even light itself. What exactly is a black hole? And how do we even know they exist? In a kid-friendly, rhyming narration, the elusive astronomical object introduces itself as both a behemoth star-eater and a shy, rarely-spotted phenomena. Physicist Eve M. Vavagiakis's approachable text is paired with Jessica Lanan's imaginative depictions of a young astronaut venturing where no human has gone before, along with stunning renderings of our fascinating narrator and the final frontier. Endnotes expand, spread by spread, on the fascinating science behind black holes and the cutting-edge experiments used to study them. This second entry in the Meet the Universe series will light readers' curiosity and have them racing to discover more secrets hidden among the stars."--

Similar to the internet in the 2000s, the technological revolution of NFTs was accompanied by an unprecedented speculative bubble. In 2021-2022, speculation was running rampant, with some NFTs selling for millions of dollars. They were making headlines in the media, and it's highly likely that you first heard about them during that time.While we can appreciate this sudden visibility, it's important to move away from certain clichés. No, NFTs are not just million-dollar JPEG images... And no, they are not limited to the art world either. Speculation is inherent in the early stages of any new technology, so we shouldn't blame this controversial image. Instead, we should seek to understand.And for those of you reading these lines, understand this: NFTs are a technology that will disrupt our daily lives, just like the internet does today.For the first time in history, NFTs allow us to create digital scarcity. Imagine that! It's a true paradigm shift, much like the birth of social networks two decades ago.And we're only at the beginning...By reading this book, you too will be part of this incredible revolution.TABLE OF CONTENTS:1. - REAL ESTATE2. - MUSIC3. - SUPPLY CHAIN4. - SOCIAL MEDIA5. - DOMAIN NAMES6. - BOOKS7. - EMAILS8. - HEALTH9. - DIPLOMAS AND CVs10. - TICKETS11. - THE VOTE12. - GAMING13. - DIGITAL ART14.¿ - INSURANCE15. - DONATIONS AND ASSOCIATIONS16. - POLITICS17.¿ - WORLD OF SPORTS18. - PRECIOUS METALS19. - ADMINISTRATION20. - PHOTOGRAPHY21. - MARKETING22. - PORNOGRAPHY23. - LOYALTY PROGRAMS24. - CINEMA25. ¿ - JUSTICE26. - CARS27. - FASHION28.¿ - LUXURY WATCHES29. - DIGITAL IDENTITY30. - WINE31. - GOVERNANCE (DAO)32. - SCIENCE33. - E-COMMERCE34. - MUSEUMS AND EXHIBITIONS35. - FINANCE36. - METAVERSE37. - COLLECTIBLE CARDS38. - ECOLOGY39. - MEDIA40.¿ - TOURISM41.¿ - PERSONAL DATA42. - INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY43.¿ - NOTARIES44. - ONLINE REVIEWS45. - EDUCATION46. - POLLS AND PETITIONS47. - GAMBLING48. - SOULBOUND TOKENS49. - AI AND DEEPFAKE50.¿ - SCAMS AND FRAUDS
Grand-père de quinze enfants, l'auteur avait lu beaucoup de livres sur les couleurs à tout-petits et les jeunes enfants. Il les trouva sans inspiration. Il y a tellement de forme artistique et la couleur dans ce monde: dessins de bande dessinée ne peuvent tout simplement pas rivaliser. Il a commencé avec Couleurs de perroquets, a poursuivi en Couleurs de fleurs, et est maintenant célèbre couleur naturelle avec Couleurs du cosmos.

"Gene Stratton-Porter was a farm girl who fell in love with birds, from the chickens whose eggs she collected to the hawks that preyed on them. When she grew up, Gene wanted nothing more than to share her love of birds with the world. She wrote stories about birds, but when a magazine wanted to publish them next to awkward photos of stuffed birds, she knew she had to take matters into her own hands. Teaching herself photography, Gene began to take photos of birds in the wild. Her knowledge of birds and how to approach them allowed her to get so close you could count the feathers of the birds in her photos. Her work was unlike anything Americans had ever seen before-she captured the true lives of animals in their natural habitat. A pioneering wildlife photographer and one of the most popular authors of the early 20th century, this bird girl showed the world the beauty of nature and why it was worth preserving"--

Elevhæfte til mellemtrinnet med opgaver om tal. Opgaverne er skrevet, så de imødekommer elever med sproglige udfordringer.Sproglige udfordringer er en væsentlig, men ofte overset kilde til vanskeligheder i matematik. Det er ikke kun flersprogede elever, der oplever sproglige udfordringer i matematikundervisningen, og derfor skal udfordringerne heller ikke tilgås som en problematik, der bunder i det at være flersproget. De sproglige udfordringer kan handle om matematikkens særlige genretræk, men også om den kontekst som matematik placeres i. Både den kontekstafhængige og genremæssige dimension i sproget spiller en vigtig rolle. Ord & matematik er et lettilgængeligt materiale for lærere og elever, der adresserer disse sproglige udfordringer.Materialet er inddelt i en grundbog og tre elevhæfter, som der retter sig mod hver sit matematiske stofområde.Elevhæftet til Ord & matematik - TAL sælges kun i sæt 3 hæfter.
