"Hummingbirds and giraffes, sharks and snails, meerkats and bees ... at first glance, these pairings may seem as different as, well, hummingbirds and giraffes, sharks and snails, meerkats and bees. But guess what? Hummingbirds and giraffes are both hummers, sharks and snails both have mouths full of thousands of sharp teeth, and meerkats and bees are both huggers. - That's just 3 of the 8 unexpected animal pairs readers will discover in this informative and entertaining book. - Each odd couple is introduced on an initial spread that has a quick fact about each animal and asks the question, "What could this odd couple have in common?" The question is answered on a second spread that includes expanded descriptions of the behavior or adaptation that the animals share. - The book's final pairing includes a diverse group of sweet-looking young humans and readers discover in what way we are like koalas. (Answer: We both have fingerprints. In fact, our fingerprints are so similar that even experts can have a hard time telling them apart!). Includes a glossary of terms."--

In A Brief History of Black Holes, award-winning University of Oxford researcher Dr Becky Smethurst charts five hundred years of scientific breakthroughs in astronomy and astrophysics.Right now, you are orbiting a black hole.The Earth orbits the Sun, and the Sun orbits the centre of the Milky Way: a supermassive black hole, the strangest and most misunderstood phenomenon in the galaxy.In this cosmic tale of discovery, Dr Becky Smethurst takes us from the earliest observations of the universe and the collapse of massive stars, to the iconic first photographs of a black hole and her own published findings.A cosmic tale of discovery, Becky explains why black holes aren't really 'black', that you never ever want to be 'spaghettified', how black holes are more like sofa cushions than hoovers and why, beyond the event horizon, the future is a direction in space rather than in time. Told with humour and wisdom, this captivating book describes the secrets behind the most profound questions about our universe, all hidden inside black holes.'A jaunt through space history . . . with charming wit and many pop-culture references' - BBC Sky At Night Magazine

Rethink traditional teaching methods to improve student learning and retention in STEM  Educational research has repeatedly shown that compared to traditional teacherΓÇôcentered instruction, certain learnerΓÇôcentered methods lead to improved learning outcomes, greater development of critical highΓÇôlevel skills, and increased retention in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines. Teaching and Learning STEM presents a trove of practical researchΓÇôbased strategies for designing and teaching courses and assessing studentsΓÇ▓ learning. The book draws on the authorsΓÇ▓ extensive backgrounds and decades of experience in STEM education and faculty development. Its engaging and wellΓÇôillustrated descriptions will equip you to implement the strategies in your courses and to deal effectively with problems (including student resistance) that might occur in the implementation. The book will help you: Plan and conduct class sessions in which students are actively engaged, no matter how large the class is Make good use of technology in faceΓÇôtoΓÇôface, online, and hybrid courses and flipped classrooms Assess how well students are acquiring the knowledge, skills, and conceptual understanding the course is designed to teach Help students develop expert problemΓÇôsolving skills and skills in communication, creative thinking, critical thinking, highΓÇôperformance teamwork, and selfΓÇôdirected learning Meet the learning needs of STEM students with a broad diversity of attributes and backgrounds The strategies presented in Teaching and Learning STEM donΓÇ▓t require revolutionary timeΓÇôintensive changes in your teaching, but rather a gradual integration of traditional and new methods. The result will be continual improvement in your teaching and your studentsΓÇ▓ learning.
