Quantitative Narrative Analysis - Roberto Franzosi - Bog - SAGE Publications Inc - Plusbog.dk

Quantitative Narrative Analysis - Roberto Franzosi - Bog - SAGE Publications Inc - Plusbog.dk

Covering a number of disciplines, including linguistics, literary criticism, computer science, and statistics, this book illustrates author Roberto Franzosi′s distinctive approach to the quantitative analysis of large volumes of narrative texts. The author bases his approach on a rigorous linguistic theory of narrative, rather than the ad-hoc approach typical of content analysis. Focusing on statistical techniques that mirror key narrative features, the book also shows how quantitative narrative analysis (QNA) goes hand-in-hand with another technique of qualitative data analysis: QCA (qualitative comparative analysis).

Everyone in your school community benefits when you invest in YOU. Social-emotional learning is one of the hottest education topics today. Most of the focus, however, has been at the student level.

A deeper, renewed self-awareness and understanding of your own and others’ emotional needs is the key to promoting social-emotional learning across your school. Exploring and mastering core social and emotional competencies a little at a time with the help of this guide fits perfectly with the daily demands of being a school leader, team leader, or classroom leader. Using the core CASEL skills presented in six modules, this guided journal will help you: - - Become more self-aware of what each CASEL skill means for leadership - - Build stronger relationships throughout schools, classrooms, and communities - - Increase credibility and approachability - - Engage stakeholders confidently - Because human growth and leadership go hand in hand, meeting students, teachers, and colleagues where they are at emotionally will begin a ripple effect and leave a lasting impact on your learning community.

Fighting Fake News - Michael W. Smith - Bog - SAGE Publications Inc - Plusbog.dk

Fighting Fake News - Michael W. Smith - Bog - SAGE Publications Inc - Plusbog.dk

Critical thinking and online reading need to go hand in hand—but they often don’t. Students click, swipe, and believe because they don’t know how to do otherwise. At times, so do we. And that’s a problem. Fighting Fake News combats this challenge by helping you model how to read, myth-bust, truth-test, and respond in ways that lead to wisdom rather than reactivity. No matter what content you teach, the lessons showcased here provide engaging, collaborative reading and discussion experiences so students can: - - Notice how teacher and peers read digital content, to be mindful of how various reading pathways influence perception - - Identify the author background, the website sponsor, and other evidence that help set a piece in context - - Stress-test the facts by evaluating news sources, reading laterally, and other critical reading strategies - - Use "Reader’s Rules of Notice" to learn to identify common rhetorical devices used to influence the reader - - Be aware of how for-profit social media platforms feed on our responses to narrow rather than widen our reading landscape We are still in the wild west era of the digital age, scrambling to impart a safer, ethical framework for evaluating information. Thankfully, it distills to one mission: teach students (and ourselves) how to think critically, and we will forever have the tools to fight fake news.
