The College of St. Scholastica discusses many forms of media and the uniqueness of media. Topics discussed: artificial intelligence, the simulation theory, technological advancements, digital currency, and more. Students studied the history of the media to see how the sharing of ideas were passed along for generations up until today. The papers that make up this book are influenced and written about what was discussed in a Media Literacy topics course.

Since its founding in 1955, HOK has never been afraid to evolve. Its often subtle but always steady reinventions have created what today is an incredibly diverse practice. The firm's ability to connect designers across building types, design disciplines and regions of the world is unparalleled.Today, a huge variety of project types in every corner of the globe - from designing a corporate boardroom or suburban high school to planning an entire university or new city - are emerging from the intersection of many HOK minds and imaginations. HOK's global community of design thinkers has been galvanised by the increasingly urgent need to create a sustainable planet while satisfying an enormous spectrum of human activities.The projects in this book appear in architecture, interiors and planning categories. These inspiring built environments transcend their initial purposes to express timeless cultural, organisational and personal values.

Significant changes in New York City's Latino community have occurred since the first edition of Latinos in New York: Communities in Transition was published in 1996. The Latino population in metropolitan New York has increased from 1.7 million in the 1990s to over 2.4 million, constituting a third of the population spread over five boroughs. Puerto Ricans remain the largest subgroup, followed by Dominicans and Mexicans; however, Puerto Ricans are no longer the majority of New York's Latinos as they were throughout most of the twentieth century. Latinos in New York: Communities in Transition, second edition, is the most comprehensive reader available on the experience of New York City's dive...
Esta tesis doctoral intenta presentar un comprensivo y accesible conjunto de razones por las que se impide a las mujeres acceder y permanecer en puestos de poder y toma de decisiones tales como la dirección escolar. Hemos confirmado una generalizada feminización en la enseñanza obligatoria. Al mismo tiempo hemos advertido que una mayor parte de maestros forman parte de los equipos directivos. Nuestra investigación detecta y explica los mecanismos que producen esas desigualdades. También hemos intentado estudiar en profundidad la opresión sexual y la división sexual del trabajo. En el capítulo I consideramos el fenómeno de la feminización de la educación, esto es, la progresiva par...
In early childhood education, children find in their own body and movement the main way to get in touch with the reality that surrounds them and, therefore, acquire knowledge about the environment in which they grow and develop. Undoubtedly, the progressive discovery of the body itself as a source of feelings and sensations, as well as exploring the different possibilities of action and bodily functions, constitutes necessary experiences on which children's thinking is built. Furthermore, the affective relationships established in psychomotor education situations, and particularly through play, are essential for the emotional development of children. Physical Education Initiatives for Early ...
Tres aspectos diferencian esta obra del gran número de libros publicados actualmente sobre programas de análisis de datos:En primer lugar el objetivo fundamental no es explicar una aplicación estadística,sino utilizarlo como una “herramienta” para solucionar problemas de investigación. Se ha empleado el mínimo aparataje matemático, enfocando la exposición en los criterios de utilización de las técnicas de análisis de datos, y a la interpretación de los resultados proporcionados. Este texto se centra en problemas concretos de investigación, y cómo la utilización de un programa permite resolver adecuadamente el objeto central de la investigación. En esta obra se desarrollan...
