Digital Literacies in Education: Creative, Multimodal and Innovative Practices (Rethinking Education) By Yvonne Crotty (editor), Margaret Farren (editor)
2013 | 238 Pages | ISBN: 3034309287 | PDF | 4 MB
Every educator will tell you about the importance of literacy. But what are the implications of digital literacy, participatory literacy and media literacy for teaching and learning? And can the use of technology be linked to social responsibility? This volume, with a range of international contributors, offers stimulating reading about 'rethinking education' in the light of new multimedia tools and platforms and the emergence of social media. It calls for twenty-first-century learners to develop digital, entrepreneurial, collaborative and group work competencies, along with creative and critical thinking. The affordances of digital technologies can offer all students the chance to create their own multimedia representations and become creators within their own education. In addition, eLearning tools can support innovative pedagogical approaches and open the way for research on the nature of teaching and learning experiences, and on how dialogue might be transformed through the use of digital communication technologies. The essays in this volume provide relevant current examples for education practitioners interested in research in this growing academic field.

Democracy and Culture: An African Perspective By Lioba J. Moshi; Abdulahi A. Osman
2008 | 201 Pages | ISBN: 1905068204 | PDF | 2 MB
Since the end of the Cold War, Africa has witnessed a political rebirth and second liberation as decades of autocracy and dictatorship became gradually replaced by a new wave of democratization and plural political competition. This political rebirth has revived the Afro-optimism that accompanied the independence decade of the 1960s. This optimism, however, co-exists with protracted and deadly conflicts in many parts of the continent - from wars in Rwanda, Democratic Republic of Congo and Somalia, to stalemate in democratic reform in Niger, Guinea and Cameroon, and democratic retraction in Uganda. Additionally, Africa faces many problems including wars, famine, refugees, internal displacement and a host of diseases such as HIV/AIDS. Similarly, despite the adoption of constitutions that guarantee the basic human rights and freedoms by many African states, human rights violations remain rampant throughout the continent's political landscape. Democracy and Culture: An African Perspective is an analysis of the democracy project in Africa. Basically the contributors seek answers to a number of fundamental questions: How is democracy to be defined in the African context? Is the Western style democracy which is being adopted in many parts of Africa culturally and environmentally neutral? Can it really be replicated in Africa? And what is the role of African culture in the current democracy project?

Wilda C. Gafney, "Daughters of Miriam: Women Prophets in Ancient Israel"
English | 2008 | pages: 325 | ISBN: 080066258X | PDF | 3,1 mb
There are untold numbers of female prophets hiding in the masculine grammar and androcentric focus of the Hebrew scriptures. There are women-prophets in the communities around biblical Israel, existing for hundreds of years and even a thousand years before the Israelite and Judean prophets recorded their messages. The rabbinic and Christian fathers analyzed and found more women in the scriptures who function as prophets than the biblical authors identify. All of these female prophets have an intimate connection with the God of Israel; they express that connection by singing, dancing, drumming, speaking with and for God, waging war, performing miracles, exercising statecraft, and giving birth. Each of them is a daughter of Miriam, the mother of all women-prophets.

Christian Wirth, "Danger, Development and Legitimacy in East Asian Maritime Politics: Securing the Seas, Securing the State "
English | ISBN: 1138092924 | 2017 | 238 pages | EPUB | 766 KB
Grounded in extensive empirical research, Danger, Development and Legitimacy in East Asian Maritime Politics addresses the major issues of geopolitics in the region that have been and will continue to shape the international politics of the Asia-Pacific for years to come. Covering the nation-states of China, Japan and South Korea, it includes an examination of the key island disputes, as well as analysis of the North Korea-South Korea clashes in the Yellow Sea, controversies in Japan's relations with both Koreas and the so-called 'history disputes', including recognition of World War II atrocities across the region. In doing so, this book explores a range of themes from the ecological environment to the globalized nature of shipping and therein links the East Asian maritime sphere directly to the dynamics and developments in the domestic politics of each country. Thus, it serves to demonstrate how several controversial debates in the international politics of the Asia-Pacific are ultimately and inextricably intertwined.

Ashok Kumar Mocherla, "Dalit Christians in South India: Caste, Ideology and Lived Religion"
English | ISBN: 113836679X | 2020 | 140 pages | EPUB | 857 KB
This ethnographic study of Dalit Lutherans in South India examines how the lived religion of Dalit Christians contests the structures of caste domination in rural Andhra. It shows how the emergence of Dalit Christianity generated new religious ideas, patterns, terrains, rituals, and practices that challenge the traditional notions of caste privilege and impact the politics of the region. It highlights the transforming role of Dalit agency in the development of Christianity, which is largely unexplored in the studies of Christian missions and anthropology of Christianity in India. The book looks at the social history of Christianity, critical events of protest, platforms of community politics, caste ideology, and local politics and interlocking of caste with congregation to provide a constructive critique of the dominant paradigm of the Dalit movement, which often treats Dalits as a homogenous social group. It discusses the pragmatic changes within the politics of Dalit Christianity as viewed from the margins of Indian society and incorporated through engagement with political ideologies (from communism to the Ambedkarite movement) and religious belief systems (from Hinduism to Christianity).

J. Burgess, "Cultures of governance and peace: A comparison of EU and Indian theoretical and policy approaches"
English | ISBN: 0719099552 | 2016 | 208 pages | EPUB | 420 KB
This volume brings together insights which look at the intersection of governance, culture and conflict resolution in India and the European Union. Two very different but connected epistemic, cultural and institutional settings, which have been divided by distance, colonialism and culture; yet have recently been brought closer together by ideas and practices of what is known as liberal peace, neoliberal state and development projects. The differences are obvious in terms of geography, culture, the nature and shape of institutions, and historical forces: and yet the commonalities between the two are surprising.

Cultivating Cloud Outcomes
English | 2023 | ISBN: 9781492098485 | 52 Pages | MOBI EPUB | 6 MB
The cloud promises cost savings, agility, and more. But the increasing complexity of modern IT systems often prevents businesses from realizing the outcomes they sought by moving to the cloud in the first place. At the core of this complexity is technical debt. Ad hoc decisions, traditional approaches, and "quick and dirty" solutions add up to fragile, more complex systems (and organizations)-reducing the pace of change, driving up costs, and degrading security. To succeed in the cloud, you first have to manage the problems IT complexity creates. This practical guide will help.

English | 2013 | pages: 507 | ISBN: 0813933919, 0813933889 | PDF | 9,9 mb
Set mostly within an expansive British imperial and transatlantic framework, this new selection of writings from the renowned historian Jack P. Greene draws on themes he has been developing throughout his distinguished career. In these essays Greene explores the efforts to impose Old World institutions, identities, and values upon the New World societies being created during the colonization process. He shows how transplanted Old World components―political, legal, and social―were adapted to meet the demands of new, economically viable, expansive cultural hearths. Greene argues that these transplantations and adaptations were of fundamental importance in the formation and evolution of the new American republic and the society it represented.

Jorge SГЎnchez Almeida, MarГ­a JesГєs MartГ­nez GonzГЎlez, "Cosmic Magnetic Fields"
English | 2018 | pages: 205 | ISBN: 1107097819 | PDF | 19,6 mb
Magnetic fields pervade the universe and play an important role in many astrophysical processes. However, they require specialised observational tools, and are challenging to model and understand. This volume provides a unified view of magnetic fields across astrophysical and cosmological contexts, drawing together disparate topics that are rarely covered together. Written by the lecturers of the XXV Canary Islands Winter School, it offers a self-contained introduction to cosmic magnetic fields on a range of scales. The connections between the behaviours of magnetic fields in these varying contexts are particularly emphasised, from the relatively small and close ranges of the Sun, planets and stars, to galaxies and clusters of galaxies, as well as on cosmological scales. Aimed at young researchers and graduate students, this up-to-date review uniquely brings together a subject often tackled by disconnected communities, conveying the latest advances as well as highlighting the limits of our current understanding.

English | 2019 | ASIN: B07QZDR1J6 | EPUB | pages: 44 | 1.2 mb
The advancement of smart technologies has taken the world by storm due to their trendiness, and convenience. Everyone converses on their smartphones, purchases smart products for their home, or utilizes the digital electronic payment systems. All of the smart products comprise the smart grid and the IoT Internet of Things to develop smart cities. In conjunction with future biometric technologies , the data of an individual's identity will be logged into a huge database containing personal information and methods of collection. Privacy advocates are concerned about hackers, cyberattacks, and glitches in this digital system network. UN Agenda 21/2030 is a non binding sustainable development plan using smart green technologies supposedly to preserve the earth's resources from over consumption by humans, based on the premise of global warming. Mankind would be placed in human settlement zones, there would be no property rights or individual liberties. Each individual would be a global citizen expected to conform to societal rule for the good of the collective, where individual thought would be discouraged. This book is a discussion into the ultimate goals of The New World Order, the global elites, their objectives and techniques, of a one world government, and one world cashless digital currency, and one world religion, and one world militarized police force to enforce total power and control of everyone and everything on the planet.
