In this pioneering, practical book for parents, neuroscientist Daniel J. Siegel and parenting expert Tina Payne Bryson explain the new science of how a child's brain is wired and how it matures. Different parts of a child's brain develop at different speeds and understanding these differences can help you turn any outburst, argument, or fear into a chance to integrate your child's brain and raise calmer, happier children.

Public education isn’t a sector known for quick change, but the COVID-19 pandemic turned schools into labs of innovation nationwide. By the pandemic’s end, a remarkable number of K-12 classrooms had come to embrace tutoring, particularly “high-impact tutoring” and its adaptable design. In The Future of Tutoring, Liz Cohen looks back at a unique revolution and finds that, with effective buy-in and thoughtful implementation, tutoring programs can improve academic performance for all students.

The liberal arts educational system is under attack. Governors in Texas, Florida, and North Carolina have announced that they will not spend taxpayer money subsidizing the liberal arts. Majors like English and history - which were once very popular and highly respected - are in steep decline, and President Obama has recently advised students to keep in mind that technical training could be more valuable than a degree in art history when deciding on an educational path.

【小学館の名作文芸朗読】「おさなご」についての評論。羽仁は、幼児は愛らしい一方で手がかかる存在だが、真にその本質を知る人は少ないと述べる。イエスの「汝ら幼児の如くならざれば天国に入る能わず」という言葉を引用しつつも、単純に幼児に罪がないと考えるのは誤りであり、彼らにも親譲りの罪が十分にあると指摘する。

How did the ancient Egyptians travel in this quaint old land thousands of years ago? What sort of transportation did they use? For how long did they go? What destinations did they visit? For which purposes did they travel? Is it correct to describe the ancient Egyptian travels as "tourism" or not? According to our current perceptions of tourism, if the Egyptians had tourism in ancient times, did they understand it as such? Which varieties of tourism did the ancient Egyptians have compared to what mankind has today?

Being and Time was published in 1927 during the Weimar period in Germany, a time of political, social and economic turmoil. Heidegger himself did not escape the pressures and his nationalism, and undeniable anti-Semitism in the following decades cast a shadow over the man, but not the work. Being and Time is not coloured by expressions of his later views (unlike other writings) and remains an outstanding document.  

“Instead of trusting kids with choices . . . many parents insist on micromanaging everything from homework to friendships. For these parents, Stixrud and Johnson have a simple message: Stop.” —NPR “This humane, thoughtful book turns the latest brain science into valuable practical advice...

To most of us, learning something 'the hard way' implies wasted time and effort. Good teaching, we believe, should be creatively tailored to the different learning styles of students and should use strategies that make learning easier. Make It Stick turns fashionable ideas like these on their head and will appeal to all those interested in the challenge of lifelong learning and self-improvement.

What does diversity do? What are we doing when we use the language of diversity? Sara Ahmed offers an account of the diversity world based on interviews with diversity practitioners in higher education, as well as her own experience of doing diversity work. Diversity is an ordinary, even unremarkable, feature of institutional life. Yet diversity practitioners often experience institutions as resistant to their work, as captured through their use of the metaphor of the "brick wall". On Being Included offers an explanation of this apparent paradox.

Think back to when you were in school. Do you remember learning how to think critically? You were probably taught these skills in your English class while learning how to read and comprehend information. And while now you may do it automatically, at the time it was a process. A sometimes slow, painful process. Why is that? Because unfortunately, many educators do not know how to properly teach critical thinking skills (because they weren’t taught either).The improved intellectual quality of work happens when critical thinking is taught and nurtured in developmental stages.

A brilliant research mathematician reveals math to be a creative art form on par with painting, poetry, and sculpture, and rejects the standard anxiety-producing teaching methods used in most schools today. Witty and accessible, Paul Lockhart's controversial approach will provoke spirited debate among educators and parents alike, altering the way we think about math forever. 

Academia is not, by and large, a kind place. Individualism and competition are what count. But without kindness at its core, Catherine Denial suggests, higher education fails students and instructors—and its mission—in critical ways. Part manifesto, part teaching memoir, part how-to guide, A Pedagogy of Kindness urges higher education to get aggressive about instituting kindness, which Denial distinguishes from niceness. 

Research into how we learn has opened the door for utilizing cognitive theory to facilitate better student learning. But that's easier said than done. Many books about cognitive theory introduce radical but impractical theories, failing to make the connection to the classroom. In Small Teaching, James Lang presents a strategy for improving student learning with a series of modest but powerful changes that make a big difference - many of which can be put into practice in a single class period.

In Hijacked, authors Peter H. Calfee and J. Kevin Dolan make a powerful case that America stands at a critical crossroads—facing political dysfunction, educational decay, eroded values, and an alarming loss of civil discourse. Through six foundational pillars—Critical Thinking, Education, Religion and Values, History, Political Systems, and Economic System—they trace how our republic has been quietly undermined from within. This isn’t a partisan rant—it’s a call to reflection and action. What eternal truths have we abandoned?

"Impariamo dai bambini a essere grandi" raccoglie i passi fondamentali e più illuminanti tratti dai libri di Maria Montessori: un'antologia in cui si affermano con dolcezza e sorprendente modernità i diritti dei bambini, il ruolo dei padri e delle madri nella loro educazione, ma anche l’importanza che maestri e insegnanti rivestono nella nostra società. Come scrive infatti Vittorino Andreoli nell'introduzione inedita che apre questo volume, gli studi di Maria Montessori "contengono non soltanto un notevole valore storico nel campo scientifico e pedagogico, ma principi e tecniche utili per migliorare l'educazione nel nostro tempo".
