The world of higher education is entering a new phase in its history. Now, and in the coming decades, the ubiquitous role of digital technology will dramatically influence the manner in which teaching and learning are designed and delivered. This book encourages faculty to adopt a proactive stance in relation to technology through the use of engaging digital tools that promote skill acquisition and inspire critical thinking in todays college students (and tomorrows leaders). The book delineates a conceptual model for digital learning, and provides specific examples of digital tools and their possible applications for teaching and learning. It will also assist faculty in making the leap to operationalizing that model within the context of the courses they teach, by highlighting how to identify instructional priorities and match digital tools with identified needs.

Free Download Jews in Egypt: Communists and Citizens By Irmgard Schrand
2005 | 302 Pages | ISBN: 3825875164 | PDF | 12 MB
Discourse about Jewish communists in Egypt shows that the perception of minorities is linked to the majority’s perception of its own condition. Jewish communists became politically active in Egypt during a period when Egyptian society as a whole was in a process of change. Where that change would lead was uncertain. Different political and social forces were engaged in a power struggle. Young Jews turned to communism because it seemed to be the best basis for social justice and equality. What they hoped to accomplish in Egypt seems utopian today, and many of their former comrades believe that the Jewish leadership of Egyptian communist groups was very likely a consequence of foreign manipulation. Irmgard Schrand teaches at the Hochschule fr ffentliche Verwaltung in Bremen, Germany.

Free Download Creators, Conquerors, and Citizens: A History of Ancient Greece by Robin Waterfield
English | January 2nd, 2018 | ISBN: 0190095768 | 544 pages | True EPUB | 13.86 MB
"We Greeks are one in blood and one in language; we have temples to the gods and religious rites in common, and a common way of life." So the fifth-century historian Herodotus has some Athenians declare, in explanation of why they would never betray their fellow Greeks to the enemy, the "barbarian" Persians. And he might have added further common features, such as clothing, foodways, and political institutions. But if the Greeks knew that they were kin, why did many of them side with the Persians against fellow Greeks, and why, more generally, is ancient Greek history so often the history of internecine wars and other forms of competition with one another? This is the question acclaimed historian Robin Waterfield sets out to explore in this magisterial history of ancient Greece.

Free Download Sarah E. Igo, "The Averaged American: Surveys, Citizens, and the Making of a Mass Public"
English | 2008 | pages: 409 | ISBN: 0674027426, 0674023218 | PDF | 2,0 mb
Americans today "know" that a majority of the population supports the death penalty, that half of all marriages end in divorce, and that four out of five prefer a particular brand of toothpaste. Through statistics like these, we feel that we understand our fellow citizens. But remarkably, such data―now woven into our social fabric―became common currency only in the last century. Sarah Igo tells the story, for the first time, of how opinion polls, man-in-the-street interviews, sex surveys, community studies, and consumer research transformed the United States public.
