DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn 1977, an RUC police officer pulled the trigger of a gun at the head of eighteen-year-old Mary Lynch. In that moment, she believed that this was the end. Bracing herself for the explosion, she felt something move out of her body, then from above watched her life unfold. Feeling totally at one with the entire universe, she was ready to go, happy to move on, but it wasn’t her time. Afraid of the consequences of telling others what had happened to her on a human level, she completely blanked it. What she experienced on a spiritual level she didn’t believe there was anyone she could tell. In 2009 Mary wrote her first book, The Long Road Home (Londubh Books, 2010), a memoir of her experiences in what the world called the Northern ‘Troubles’ and how it affected her life. Within months, this second book was started, telling of her involvement in helping those who had moved beyond the veil, including those she would have considered the enemy, using shamanic practices that came naturally to her. 2020 Vision channels the extraordinary story of Mary’s spiritual journey from before conception to a vision of hope in 2020.

Understanding by Design

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWhat is understanding and how does it differ from knowledge? How can we determine the big ideas worth understanding? Why is understanding an important teaching goal, and how do we know when students have attained it? How can we create a rigorous and engaging curriculum that focuses on understanding and leads to improved student performance in today's high-stakes, standards-based environment? Authors Grant Wiggins and Jay McTighe answer these and many other questions in this second edition of Understanding by Design. Drawing on feedback from thousands of educators around the world who have used the UbD framework since its introduction in 1998, the authors have greatly revised and expanded their original work to guide educators across the K-16 spectrum in the design of curriculum, assessment, and instruction. With an improved UbD Template at its core, the book explains the rationale of backward design and explores in greater depth the meaning of such key ideas as essential questions and transfer tasks. Readers will learn why the familiar coverage- and activity-based approaches to curriculum design fall short, and how a focus on the six facets of understanding can enrich student learning. With an expanded array of practical strategies, tools, and examples from all subject areas, the book demonstrates how the research-based principles of Understanding by Design apply to district frameworks as well as to individual units of curriculum. Combining provocative ideas, thoughtful analysis, and tested approaches, this new edition of Understanding by Design offers teacher-designers a clear path to the creation of curriculum that ensures better learning and a more stimulating experience for students and teachers alike.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKContrary to popular belief Polio is not extinct. This is the true story of an indomitable spirit afflicted with unimaginable physical and psychological challenges. Paul Alexander’s life is a saga that started in 1946 and has been profoundly shaped by the Polio epidemic of the early 1950’s. Survivors of the 1950’s Polio Epidemic in America are rare. Polio victims, like Paul Alexander, who require the assistance of an “Iron Lung” respirator for their life’s breath are even rarer. Paul Alexander has crafted his life against all odds and has a courageous and compelling story to share with us all. Victims of Polio, their families, friends and communities are struggling to cope with this obscure but still dangerous infectious disease. This book is a testimony to the strength of the human spirit and an affirmation of the need to continue efforts to eradicate the pestilence of Polio from the planet.
