Racial Inequality in Mathematics Education Exploring Academic Identity as a Sense of Belonging【電子書籍】[ Thierry Elin-Saintine ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Reform initiatives in mathematics education have been reluctant to embrace racial equity as a core or guiding principle. The field is replete with studies on Black students' poor performance in mathematics education and of its persistence. Conversely, success in mathematics is rarely associated with groups of African or African American descent.</p> <p>The abundance of data on the failure of Black students in mathematics has contributed to mainstream beliefs of a <em>racial hierarchy of mathematics ability</em> in America. This perception has not only shaped attitudes and behaviors of educational practitioners, but it has contributed to the alienation of many students from the community of 'doers of mathematics.' This study examines the mathematics identity of a group of seniors enrolled in honor's pre-calculus at a comprehensive high school. Data collected and analyzed for this book shows that participants, in spite of a history of success in mathematics and despite viewing the classroom as opportunity to challenge disparaging views of Black Americans, refused to seek membership in the math community.</p> <p>Saintine focuses on the mathematic identity construction of 11 Black students and their own perception of mathematics education. This work offers new insights into the racial opportunity-gap in mathematics and challenges longstanding assumptions about 'what' or 'who' is a math person.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 8,204円

The Emperor of Wine The Rise of Robert M. Parker, Jr. and the Reign of American Taste【電子書籍】[ Elin McCoy ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The first book to chronicle the rise of Robert M. Parker, Jr., the world's most influential and controversial wine critic, who, over the last twenty?five years, has dominated the international wine world and embodied the triumph of American taste.</p> <p>This is the story of how an American lawyer raised on Coca?Cola caused a revolution in the way wines around the globe are made, sold, and talked about.</p> <p>To his legions of fans, Parker is a cross between Julia Child and Ralph Nader ?? part enthusiastic sensualist and part consumer crusader. To his many enemies, he is a self?appointed wine judge bent on reducing the meaning of wine to a two?digit number. The man who now rules the world of wine has been the focus of both adulation and death threats. He rose to his pinnacle of power by means of the traditional American virtues of hard work, determination, and integrity ?? coupled with an unshakeable ego and a maniacal obsession with a beverage that aspires to a seductive art form: fine wine.</p> <p>Parker's influential bimonthly newsletter, The Wine Advocate, with more than 45,000 subscribers across the United States and in more than thirty?seven countries, exerts the single most significant influence on consumers' wine?buying habits and trends in America, Europe, and the Far East, and impacts the way wine is being made in every wine?producing country in the world, from France to Australia. Parker has been profiled in countless magazines and newspapers around the world and most of his dozen books have been best sellers in the United States and abroad. Yet, despite the world's attention and unending acclaim, Robert Parker stands at the center of a heated controversy. Is he a passionate lover of wine who, more than anyone else, is responsible for its vastly improved quality, or is he, as others claim, waging a war against centuries of tradition and in the process killing the soul of wine?</p> <p>The Emperor of Wine tackles the myriad questions that swirl about Parker and reveals how he became both worshipped and despised, revered as an infallible palate by some and blamed by others for remaking the world's wine industry into a single global market, causing prices to skyrocket, and single?handedly reshaping the taste of wine to his own preference.</p> <p>Elin McCoy met Robert Parker in 1981 when she was his first magazine editor, and she has followed his extraordinary rise ever since. In telling Parker's story, McCoy gives readers an unmatched, authoritative insider's view of the eccentric personalities, bitter feuds, controversies, passions, payoffs, and secrets of the wine world, explaining how wine reputations are made, how and why wine critics agree and disagree, and tracking the startling ways wines are judged, promoted, made, and sold today. This fascinating portrait of a modern?day cultural colossus shows how a world that once was the province of gentlemen's clubs and the pastime of stuffed shirts turned into a sensual hobby for the middle class, creating a luxury industry bent on making money on a worldwide scale ?? and how one man has revolutionized the way the world thinks about wine.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,320円

Der findes flere b?ger om seksuelle overgreb, men den her er helt s?rlig, fordi den meget originalt afs?ger et tabubelagt emne i et grafisk univers fuld af symboler, billeder og poesi."<br /> <em>- Morten Halskov Jensen, Lekt?r</em></p> <p>"Denne ?dende ondskab beskriver Malmberg n?nsomt og n?sten ordl?st i en effektiv og let mangaagtig tegneseriestil, hvor virkelighed og fantasi flyder sammen.
