Electricity And Magnetism: Stop Faking It! Finally Understanding Science So You Can Teach It - PDF
نویسندگان: William C. Robertson خلاصه: Shocked by static? Mixed up about magnets? Curious about currents? This book will help you get beyond memorizing electricity-related formulas, rules, and procedures so you can understand the topic at a deep level deep enough to teach it with confidence and comfort. By covering the basics of static electricity, current electricity, and magnetism, the book develops a scientific model showing that electricity and magnetism are really the same phenomenon in different forms. A bonus feature: access to interactive software that you can download from the NSTA Web site. The software will help you investigate electrical circuits from simple to complex without having to buy a lot of expensive materials (or risking electrocution!). Electricity and Magnetism is the fifth title in the award-winning NSTA Press Stop Faking It! Series. As author Bill Robertson writes, The book you have in your hands is not a textbook. It is, however, designed to help you get science at a level you never thought possible, and also to bring you to the point where tackling more traditional science resources won t be a terrifying, lump-in-your-throat, I-don t-think-I ll-survive experience. Robertson serves as your friendly guide, one with a comforting knack for anticipating fears, meeting information needs, and entertaining as he edifies.

The Mentee's Guide: Making Mentoring Work for You - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Lois J. Zachary, Lory A. Fischler خلاصه: MY CONNECTION to mentoring began before I was born. My maiden namewas actually Menter (pronounced the same as mentor), so perhaps it wasnot coincidental that my work focuses on mentoring. What is certain is thatmy introduction to mentoring began as a Menter.My mother seemed to be everyone’s informal mentor. She was a leaderin a host of community organizations, and people would frequently callon her to share her leadership secrets, bolster their confidence, and sup-port their good intentions. Sometimes she would be gentle, sometimes a bitstern, but she always balanced candor and compassion. Those who wereprivileged to call her “Mentor Menter” knew that she was there for themand believed in them and the power of their possibilities. To this day wehear stories of how enduring her impact had been and how, in her ownspecial way, she didn ’ t transform those she mentored but helped themtransform themselves.My personal mentoring stories are many. I marvel at how my mentorsraised the bar for me, modeled the way, pushed me beyond my person-ally defined limits, encouraged me to enlarge my thinking, and believedin me even when I was unsure of myself. I was grateful for their time,their stories, and their commitment to my growth. I recall one mentor inparticular who always seemed to open doors of possibility for me. Shesaw something in me I didn’t see in myself. To be honest, I was sure thatI was going to be overwhelmed as each door opened, but with her sup-port I was able to rise to the challenge, consolidate the learning, and moveonto the next one. Before I knew it, I had developed competencies that I’ dnever imagined. Another mentor stood alongside me as I took on a majorleadership role in my community. He was there to support me, help methrough the political minefields, and make sure I kept the big picture at theforefront of my thinking.Preface

The Transplanted Executive: Why You Need to Understand How Workers in Other Countries See the World Differently - Original PDF
The Transplanted Executive: Why You Need to Understand How Workers in Other Countries See the World Differently - Original PDF
نویسندگان: P. Christopher Earley, Miriam Erez خلاصه: With the passage of NAFTA and GATT, the steady integration of the European Community, and the emergence of promising new markets in Eastern Europe and the Pacific Rim, businesses around the world are globalizing their operations with unprecedented speed. But as executives working in foreign countries have discovered, organizational cultures can differ dramatically from country to country, and management practices effective back home can fail miserably abroad. The Transplanted Executive provides a comprehensive resource for managers of any nationality striving to understand the diversity of workplace values and traditions--and how they can be used to maximize employee efficiency, morale, and the bottom line. Offering sensible solutions to everyday problems, this informative volume shows how employees with different cultural, religious, and ethnic backgrounds respond to specific managerial techniques. The authors demonstrate, for example, why effective incentive systems in Japan might decrease productivity in United States, and why successful efforts to create team-based cooperation in Russia could alienate rather than motivate workers in England. Each chapter focuses on a different management problem--effective communication, motivation of workers, turning groups into teams, leadership skills, and quality management production--and following each chapter are quick reference charts that neatly summarize the text. The authors also include a table which provides cultural profiles of nearly 50 countries from major business centers around the world. Now more than ever, multinational managers need to be in touch with the range of cultural issues that can affect their overseas operations. With The Transplanted Executive in hand, managers the world over will have a user-friendly guide to understanding and mastering the subject.
