Christopher Gill, "Learning to Live Naturally: Stoic Ethics and its Modern Significance"
English | ISBN: 019886616X | 2023 | 378 pages | MOBI | 2 MB
At a time of unprecedented interest in Stoicism among scholars and the general public, this book offers a sustained examination of the core Stoic ethical claims and their significance for modern moral theory. The first part considers the Stoic ideas of happiness as the life according to nature and virtue as expertise in leading a happy life and explores the senses of 'nature' (both human and universal) relevant for ethics. The second part studies Stoic thinking on ethical development (learning to live naturally), bringing out the interconnections between growth in ethical understanding, forming social relationships, and emotional responses. The third part discusses how Stoic ethics, as interpreted here, can contribute to contemporary moral theory, especially virtue ethics. It suggests that Stoic thinking on the virtue-happiness relationship offers a cogent alternative to Aristotle, currently the main ancient prototype for virtue ethical theory, and it explores ways in which Stoic ideas on human and universal nature can contribute to modern ethical debates, notably on how to respond effectively to the pressing challenge of climate breakdown. It also highlights the value of Stoic guidance for virtue ethics as well as contemporary 'life-guidance'. A further distinctive feature of the book is the close and extended study of key sources for Stoic ethics, including Cicero's

Learning on Display: Student-created Museums That Build Understanding By Linda D'acquisto
2006 | 191 Pages | ISBN: 1416602852 | PDF | 4 MB
The story of the civil rights movement. The characteristics of Japanese art and culture. The importance of innovation. The history of your community. No matter the subject area or the grade level, a school museum project can improve learning and teaching. Unlike science fairs or art shows, which highlight the work of individuals, school museums are collaborative, multifaceted projects that build understanding. As students engage in meaningful work and deepen their knowledge of a specific topic, teachers gain insight into best instructional practices.Through photographs and classroom examples, former curriculum director, teacher, and museum educator Linda D'Acquisto shows how school museums inspire students' curiosity and creativity; encourage responsibility and teamwork; and strengthen writing, communication, research, and problem-solving skills. You will learn the process for developing your own exhibition, including strategies for *incorporating academic content standards *assessing learning and understanding *guiding research, writing, and design *promoting partnerships among students, colleagues, parents, and the community*using the completed museum as a teaching toolWith its step-by-step approach and practical resources, Learning on Display will help you transform your curriculum into motivating museum projects that make class work rigorous, memorable, and fun. Linda D'Acquisto assists teachers and schools in planning student-designed museum exhibitions through her consulting firm, Kid Curators.

Learning from Change: Issues and Experiences in Participatory Monitoring and Evaluation By Marisol Estrella, Jutta Blauert, Dindo Campilan, John Gaventa, Julian Gonsalves, Irene Guijt, Debra
2000 | 288 Pages | ISBN: 0889368953 | PDF | 22 MB
Learning from Change provides an overview of the common themes and experiences in participatory approaches to monitoring and evaluation across different institutions and sectors. It is a compilation of selected case studies and discussions between practitioners, academics, donors, and policymakers in participatory monitoring and evaluation (PM&E). It explores conceptual, methodological, institutional, and policy issues that need to be addressed to enrich our understanding and practice of PM&E. The book is in three sections. The first provides a general overview of PM&E, synthesizing literature surveys and regional reviews of PM&E practice around the world. The second presents case studies that illustrate the diverse range of settings and contexts in which PM&E is being applied. The third raises the key issues and challenges arising from the case studies and discussions, and proposes areas for future research and action. Learning from Change will be an important reference for development professionals worldwide as well as for anyone interested in the process of participatory development, including researchers, academics, fieldworkers, development practitioners, and policymakers.

Learning Through Storytelling in Higher Education: Using Reflection and Experience to Improve Learning By Maxine Alterio
2003 | 200 Pages | ISBN: 0749440384 | PDF | 3 MB
Learning Through Storytelling in Higher Education explores ways of using storytelling as a teaching and learning tool. When storytelling is formalized in meaningful ways, it can capture everyday examples of practice and turn them into an opportunity to learn - encouraging both reflection, a deeper understanding of a topic and stimulating critical thinking skills. The technique can accommodate diverse cultural, emotional and experiential incidents, and may be used in many different contexts eg formal/informal; one-on-one/group setting.The authors outline the different models of storytelling and explain how to make use of this technique and encourage a 'storytelling culture' within the workplace or in tutorial sessions.Academic yet accessible, this book provides a new perspective on learning techniques and will be a great asset to any educator looking to improve reflective practice.

Jo Mackiewicz, "Learning Skilled Trades in the Workplace"
English | ISBN: 9819633958 | 2025 | 230 pages | EPUB | 67 MB
This open access book describes andexplains a fifty-year-old woman's process of developing trade competences. Drawing from daily journal entries, photographs, interviews from 10 fabrication shops, and online forums about trades, this autoethnography details the author's learning process at Howe's Welding and Metal Fabrication, where she has worked for over three years. This book uses accessible, everyday language and draws heavily from personal experience in trades, taking the value of trades as a given and explaining the process of developing the depth and breadth of conceptual and procedural knowledges―the competences―required to work in repair and fabrication shops like Howe's. This book combines a research-derived framework for analyzing scaffolded learning and expertise development with stories of learning how and learning what. Readers will gain a better understanding of knowledge development in trades workplaces, including how one-to-one interactions scaffold knowledge, how workers gradually enter a community of practice, and how workplaces can constrain learning. This book also gives readers a view of workplace learning over time and helps readers―researchers and practitioners―recognize opportunities for development toward expertise. The book is useful for tradespeople, especially newcomers to trades and, in particular, women.

Learning Representations with PyTorch: Understanding How Machines Learn and Represent Data with Deep Learning
English | January 11, 2026 | ASIN: B0GG5Y4D7N | 95 pages | Epub | 1.38 MB
Modern machine learning relies on the ability of models to represent complex data in ways that computers can understand. Learning Representations with PyTorch provides a practical, hands-on guide to building and training deep learning models that learn meaningful representations from data using PyTorch. The book introduces core concepts in representation learning, including embeddings, feature extraction, autoencoders, and neural network architectures, while showing how these techniques can be applied to images, text, and structured data. Readers will gain a clear understanding of how to design models that capture essential patterns in data, improving performance for tasks such as classification, prediction, and anomaly detection. Through practical examples, exercises, and step-by-step PyTorch implementations, Learning Representations with PyTorch teaches readers not just how to code models, but how to think critically about data representations, model capacity, and generalization. Advanced topics, such as transfer learning, self-supervised learning, and representation evaluation, are also introduced in an accessible way. Written for students, developers, and machine learning practitioners, this book equips readers with the skills to leverage PyTorch to transform raw data into structured, actionable representations, laying the foundation for building more intelligent and effective AI systems.
