Teachers and Code-breakers
That Genesis was a key text in the formation of the medieval intellectual world is well recognised. But what were the motives and methods of those who used it? This book looks at the writers and how they wrote about Genesis to reconstruct the intellectual history of the period. It explores how their use of Genesis discloses common attitudes to revelation, authority, and one another.In turn the book examines, how awareness of their self-understanding, can help in understanding their exegesis. Since they built on authorities and one another, and wished 'to remain true' to their authorities, how did exegesis change and develop? This study reveals a group who saw themselves as a single body dispersed over time, charged with a common task as 'Christian Schoolmasters', and who wished to retain all the had received, make it suitable for teaching their students, and ensure its continuance. The book explores the intellectual bonds between those we usually study (e.g. Augustine) and umpteen others whose often anonymous exegeses we tend to ignore - yet it was the cumulative impact of both that created medieval theology.

In denial, two species from alien worlds face a similar future. Teachers with generations' worth of training to fight the Darkness first must fight the complacency and corruption of their own Sounders. Poseidon, a Master Teacher, must train two young Sounders, Quickfin and Silverfin, to possess that rare trait of greatness. Quickfin's genius precipitates a crisis unforeseen even by Poseidon, which leads them on a current of self-discovery. From youth to maturity, the two young Sounders must become more then they thought they could be. To defeat the Darkness, circumstance forces the Sounders to form an alliance with the surfriders, a complex species similar to them, who are capable of both kindness and cruelty. In this battle, Suzan, a surfrider, learns about the battle between good and evil that exist in her world. She discovers a covert organization representing good, which has fought a losing battle for the last two decades. Can she--Will she help? This book delves into matters of the heart. Though based on Christian culture, it should never be a replacement for the proper study of the Bible.
Literate Lives
Literate Lives: Teaching Reading and Writing in Elementary Classrooms invites readers to consider the complexities of the reading process in diverse settings. The text is designed to meet the challenges and needs of undergraduate and graduate teacher candidates in elementary education programs, helping them to have a better first year (in the classroom) experience. The text introduces teacher candidates to the notion that reading is a complex, multi-layered process that begins early in a child’s life. Reading by all accounts, is more than decoding symbols on a page. While this is one component of the reading process, it is important for teacher candidates to see a broader more complete picture of reading. Given the role that reading plays in the elementary school curriculum, it is imperative that teachers have a well-developed understanding of the reading process and what it means to be a teacher of readers. Literate Lives: Teaching Reading and Writing in the Elementary Classroom covers the major theories and application strategies of the reading process as well as current debates in the field using a unique framework that builds upon the following themes: believing that literacy is based in social, cultural, and historical contexts assuming an inquiry stance - being ‘problem posers’ and wondering ‘why’ using “kidwatching” (Goodman, 1985) as an assessment tool to make informed instructional decisions recognizing and using the multiple literacies that children bring to the classroom lingering and reflecting on one’s decisions in light of what one knows and believes.
