New Approaches in Teaching History Using Science Fiction to Introduce Students to New Vistas in Historical Thought


Free Download Frederic Krome, "New Approaches in Teaching History: Using Science Fiction to Introduce Students to New Vistas in Historical Thought "
English | ISBN: 1475869517 | 2024 | 142 pages | PDF | 4 MB
Science fiction literature and film are an underappreciated source for the teaching of history. Finding material that can excite a student’s curiosity can be a key towards greater student engagement, especially among students who are taking history as a requirement, rather than from interest. The discovery that they can read or watch science fiction as part of their classwork often comes as a pleasant surprise. Beyond its popularity, however, utilizing science fiction for class assignments has certain pedagogical advantages: it introduces students to new vistas in historical thought, helps them learn how literature and film can be applied as a primary source, and can encourage participation in projects that are enjoyable.

An ABA Primer with Application to Teaching Children with Autism


Free Download Reg M. Reynolds, "An ABA Primer with Application to Teaching Children with Autism"
English | ISBN: 1796012335 | 2019 | 160 pages | PDF | 9 MB
Applied behavior analysis (ABA) is the application of the past hundred years of research into how learning works. It has universal application; it can be applied to any situation in which learning is involved. Recently, ABA has gained prominence in the teaching of children with autism-it is currently estimated to affect 1 in every 42 boys and 1 in every 189 girls-since, while there are many different approaches to treating autism, if learning occurs as a result of any of these different approaches, it will occur in keeping with "the laws of learning" on which ABA is based (you may productively think of it as remedial education for the social communications deficits that define autism). In addition, of the myriad of approaches to the treatment of autism spectrum disorders, applied behavior analysis (ABA) has the most research support and some of the best-trained therapists.
