Anything School Can Do You Can Do Better: The Story of a Family Who Learned at Home, Revised Edition - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: In the late 1940s, when our family began, ‘early cognitive learning’ was not supposed tobe possible. It was taken for granted that real learning happened-in school, and thatschool was a good thing; the more of it everyone could get, the better.Now, in the early 1980s, many people, though not all, have come to change their mindsradically on both questions. It happens that our experience cuts across both trends. Ourchildren began to learn early, and they learnt at home, not at school, until the age of eightor nine. Now that the youngest of our eleven children has just finished school, it seemsthat the learning they did in those few years at home has been much more relevant totheir later careers than anything they did in primary school. As for post- primary school,some gained some benefit, when they were lucky enough to meet a good teacher with asmall class; two at least were harmed; on the whole, the experience was irrelevant.The first part of this book tells about the early learning; how it was prompted, and ageneral survey of how we all went about it. Anyone who wants to make use of ourexperience will find more detail in the chapter called Resources, towards the end.The next section gives a short account of each of the children, just to tie up thebeginnings with their life after school. It might be easier to keep track of the peoplemoving through the first story if you turn to these chapters if confused.Then comes ‘The Debate about Reading’ with a chapter to itself. This is a subject,which, in the English-speaking world, generates vast amounts of argument. There arethose who think reading is too delicate a matter for parents to meddle in and there areothers who think that parents should be enlisted to help the school. There are those whothink it should be taught in kindergarten, and others who vehemently disagree. I have justcome across this judgment, made in 1970 by Dr Hans Furth, a psychologist at theCatholic University of America, Washington, DC.Mark well these twin conditions: learn reading and forget your intellect. The average fiveto nine year old, from any environment, is unlikely, when busy with reading and writing,to engage his intellectual powers to any degree.Even to copy that sentence makes my blood pressure rise. And on top of the disagreementabout when reading should be taught, and by whom, there are entrenched views about thebest methods. We used four different methods; though each did well enough one of themseemed decidedly more satisfactory than the others; it is appropriate only to the home. Inthe first draft of this book I found that while I was trying to describe our experience I wasalso getting caught up in arguments on all fronts at once. This time round I have tried togive a straight account of the different methods in the first part of the book and keep allthe arguments and references to research which I discovered later on safely shut up in achapter of their own.

The Filter Bubble: What the Internet Is Hiding from You - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: An eye-opening account of how the hidden rise of personalization on the Internet is controlling-and limiting-the information we consume. In December 2009, Google began customizing its search results for each user. Instead of giving you the most broadly popular result, Google now tries to predict what you are most likely to click on. According to MoveOn.org board president Eli Pariser, Google's change in policy is symptomatic of the most significant shift to take place on the Web in recent years-the rise of personalization. In this groundbreaking investigation of the new hidden Web, Pariser uncovers how this growing trend threatens to control how we consume and share information as a society-and reveals what we can do about it. Though the phenomenon has gone largely undetected until now, personalized filters are sweeping the Web, creating individual universes of information for each of us. Facebook-the primary news source for an increasing number of Americans-prioritizes the links it believes will appeal to you so that if you are a liberal, you can expect to see only progressive links. Even an old-media bastion like The Washington Post devotes the top of its home page to a news feed with the links your Facebook friends are sharing. Behind the scenes a burgeoning industry of data companies is tracking your personal information to sell to advertisers, from your political leanings to the color you painted your living room to the hiking boots you just browsed on Zappos. In a personalized world, we will increasingly be typed and fed only news that is pleasant, familiar, and confirms our beliefs-and because these filters are invisible, we won't know what is being hidden from us. Our past interests will determine what we are exposed to in the future, leaving less room for the unexpected encounters that spark creativity, innovation, and the democratic exchange of ideas. While we all worry that the Internet is eroding privacy or shrinking our attention spans, Pariser uncovers a more pernicious and far- reaching trend on the Internet and shows how we can- and must-change course. With vivid detail and remarkable scope, The Filter Bubble reveals how personalization undermines the Internet's original purpose as an open platform for the spread of ideas and could leave us all in an isolated, echoing world.
The Treatment Trap: How the Overuse of Medical Care Is Wrecking Your Health and What You Can Do to Prevent It - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: With health reform enacted by the Congress and signed by the President, the subject matter of The Treatment Trap is a compelling component in the national debate. Taking advantage of Rosemary Gibson's knowledge gleaned from extended experience in the field of medical care and Janardan Singh's similar knowledge but from a financial perspective, the authors explore the most neglected issue in American medicine today: the overuse of medical care, including needless surgery and other invasive procedures, out-of-control x-ray imaging, profligate testing, and other wasteful practices that have become routine among too many American doctors. Their combined reporting and analysis concentrates on the human aspects of this disturbing trend in health care, with personal experiences that reflect poorly on hospitals as well as physicians. They show how money spent for questionable and even useless care is diverting major funds that could be better used to treat patients who are genuinely sick and sometimes cannot afford the extravagant charges of the American health-care system. Their suggestions for reforming the delivery of health care, and their cautions to individual consumers about how to deal with situations they may encounter, make The Treatment Trap essential reading for medical care consumers, health-care professionals, and policymakers alike.
