Bøger af Robert McCormick

CUA Press is proud to announce the CUA Studies in Canon Law. In conjunction with the School of Canon Law of the Catholic University of America, we are making available, both digitally and in print, more than 400 canon law dissertations from the 1920s - 1960s, many of which have long been unavailable. These volumes are rich in historical content, yet remain relevant to canon lawyers today. Topics covered include such issues as abortion, excommunication, and infertility. Several studies are devoted to marriage and the annulment process; the acquiring and disposal of church property, including the union of parishes; the role and function of priests, vicars general, bishops, and cardinals; and juridical procedures within the church. For those who seek to understand current ecclesial practices in light of established canon law, these books will be an invaluable resource

Originally published in 1884 and illustrated with his maps and drawings, this two-volume work by the doctor and naturalist Robert McCormick (1800-90) describes polar voyages with William Parry and James Clark Ross. McCormick also discusses his part in the search for Sir John Franklin, and presents a very detailed autobiography.

Discussing educational networks, this book presents analyses of the problems with the theories of teacher learning, and explores what network theories can be brought to the problem of how teachers and schools create and share knowledge about practice.

Learning how to learn is an essential preparation for lifelong learning. Whilst this is widely acknowledged by teachers, they have lacked a rich professional knowledge base from which they can teach their pupils how to learn. This book aims to make a contribution to the creation of such a professional knowledge base for teachers.
