DOWNLOAD EBOOKWhat’s the hardest part of grad school? It’s not simply that the workload is heavy and the demands are high. It’s that too many students lack efficient methods to let them do their best. Professor Zachary Shore aims to change this. With humorous, lively prose, Professor Shore teaches you to master the five most crucial skills you need to succeed: how to read, write, speak, act, and research at a higher level. Each chapter in this no-nonsense guide outlines a unique approach to acquiring a skill and then demonstrates how to enhance it. Through these concrete, practical methods, Grad School Essentials will save you time, elevate the quality of your work, and help you to earn the degree you seek.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFrom TV’s CSI to bestsellers by Patricia Cornwell and Kathy Reichs, interest in forensics is at an all-time high. Now one of our most respected forensic pathologists gives a behind-the-scenes look at eleven of his most notorious cases, cracked by scientific analysis and Sherlock Holmesian deduction. As chief medical examiner of Rockland County, New York, for almost thirty-five years, Dr. Frederick Zugibe literally wrote the book on the subject—his widely used textbook is considered the definitive text. Over the years he has pioneered countless innovations, including the invention of a formula to soften mummified fingers—enabling fingerprinting, and thus identification, of a long-deceased victim. He has appeared as an expert hundreds of times in the media and in the courtroom—and not once has a jury failed to accept his testimony over opposing expert witnesses. And now, in Dissecting Death, he has opened the door to the world of forensic pathology in all its gruesome and fascinating mystery. Dr. Zugibe takes us through the process all good pathologists follow, using eleven of his most challenging cases. With him, we visit the often grisly—though sometimes shockingly banal—crime scene. We inspect the body, palpate the wounds, search for clues in the hair and skin. We employ ultraviolet light, strange measuring devices, optical instruments. We see how a forensic pathologist determines the hour of death, the type of weapon used, the killer’s escape route. And then we enter the lab, the world of high-tech criminal detection: DNA testing, fingerprinting, gunshot patterns, dental patterns, X-rays. But not every case ends in a conviction, and in a closing chapter Dr. Zugibe examines some recent high-profile cases in which blunders led to killers going free, either because the wrong party was brought to trial or because the evidence presented didn’t do the trick—including Jon-Benet Ramsey’s murder and, of course, the O.J. Simpson trial.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKStudent activities provide the hands-on experiences that are so important for middle-grade learners. They are used to introduce concepts, thus providing time for exploration. They are also used to reinforce concepts by providing students with opportunities to apply what they have learned. An activity consists of the following components: Introductory Paragraphs connect topics with previous lessons or to students' experiences. Focusing Questions provide the activity's purpose and encourage students to make decisions. Materials show reduced versions of worksheets and data pages. Procedures state group size, specifies the assignment, and emphasizes safety precautions. Analysis Questions encourage higher level thinking, requiring students to interpret their data. Conclusions require that students bring closure to an activity based on actual, not predicted, results. Extension Activities are often interdisciplinary and encourage students to learn more through an activity or research project. The readings build on students' experiences and help them learn from the activities. Some of the components are the same as those in the activities. Subheadings provide reading clues. Illustrations reinforce and clarify the text. Analysis Questions range from being pure recall to fairly abstract. They require that students think about the concepts, and may have students personalize or otherwise apply the concepts. Extension Activities provide opportunities for career exploration. Boxed Items often appear at the end of a lesson to extend the concepts it presents. Science Words is a listing of roots, prefixes, and suffixes that help students understand the terms used in this program Thinking Like a Scientist summarizes how students learn science in this program The comprehensive index lists the topics and terms that students may want to look up. For each technical term, a boldfaced entry shows where students can find its definition and the term used in context.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWhy do students continue to dissect animals in biology classes? Why, despite the excellence of teaching resources for veterinary and human medical education that substitute for dissection, do those provided for pre-college students fall short in convenience, flexibility, and coordination with the curriculum? Why Dissection? Animal Use in Education looks beyond the typical yes-or-no debate about dissection to understand how we came to our current practice of dissection in intermediate and high school biology, even as preparation of health professionals has moved away from dissection. Despite the many forces that support the continued use of dissection in pedagogy, teachers retain much autonomy in how they teach in the classroom, and legislation in many states provide specific requirements for what should and should not be taught in separated science and health curricula, offering students the option to not engage in dissection. Why Dissection? walks students, teachers, and parents through these options to help them make more informed choices regarding their science education options.
