Full on Learning
The start point is your end-point: the learner. What kind of learner do you want to develop? What are the characteristics of an effective learner and how can we teach to support the development of these characteristics? If future employers are looking for people who can solve problems, think creatively and be innovative, what can we do, as part of our current curriculum provision to enable students to 'deliberately' practise this skill? If being intelligent is not, in fact, measured by your IQ score, and has far more to do with the ability to apply higher order thinking to unfamiliar contexts and create new solutions to existing problems, then what learning challenges can we design for Year 9 on a sunny Wednesday afternoon that will allow them to develop the emotional and intellectual resilience required to be able to do this? Full On Learning offers a range of tried & tested practical suggestions and ideas to construct the ideal conditions for the characteristics of effective learners to flourish. Shortlisted for the Education Resources Awards 2013, Secondary Resource - non ICT category and Educational Book Award category.
The Multiplication Challenge
Where do I find more leaders? Every leader of a growing organization asks this question. And though we know we need more leaders, few of us know how to create a culture of leadership development. This book recounts how Steve Murrell and Every Nation rediscovered four leadership multipliers that solved the leadership shortage of a growing church and global mission organization. The principles and stories in these pages will help you identify leaders, develop current leaders, and multiply future leaders!
The Boy from the Brothel
It is 1907 and nine-year-old Willi has built a solid reputation on the streets. Although he is becoming a legend among the gangs and street urchins for his ability to plan ahead and sense danger, Willi has other ideas. After separating himself from life in the gutter by securing a space in an unused top-floor store room in a warehouse, he is now free to observe the seedier side of the night life of Vienna and the early morning starving artist community alone. A year later he heroically saves a young woman from a brutal situation. As a reward, he is offered a meal at an exclusive brothel, where he endears himself to the ladies and is offered an opportunity for employment as a messenger. Through his contact with the brothel’s patrons, the Madame’s financial genius, and the worldly education he receives from the ladies, he gains vast insight into the workings of upper society and the financial world. As he matures into manhood, Willi partners with a mentor to build a financial empire. But when the Second World War unleashes chaos, Willi becomes a conduit to save downed allied airmen. As the war draws to its final close, he is badly disfigured by an American bomb while rescuing another girl from a horrifying fate. Guided by the many strong women in his life, his path leads him to eventually rebuild Austria and extend his holdings into the United States, now only time will tell if Willi will be set free of his scars to capture the happiness he has always wanted. In this historical tale, an intuitive orphan rises from the streets of Vienna with the hope of transforming his dark beginning into a future filled with financial success and happiness.
