Judging Exhibitions A Framework for Assessing Excellence
Free Download Judging Exhibitions: A Framework for Assessing Excellence By Beverly Serrell
2006 | 198 Pages | ISBN: 1598740318 | PDF | 3 MB
Renowned museum consultant and researcher Beverly Serrell and a group of museum professionals from the Chicago area have developed a generalizable framework by which the quality of museum exhibitions can be judged from a visitor-centered perspective. Using criteria such as comfort, engagement, reinforcement, and meaningfulness, they have produced a useful tool for other museum professionals to better assess the effectiveness of museum exhibitions and thereby to improve their quality. An attached CD includes a brief video demonstrating the Excellent Judges process and provides additional illustrations and information for the reader. Tested in a dozen institutions by the research team, this step-by-step approach to judging exhibitions will be of great value to museum directors, exhibit developers, and other museum professionals.

A Pluralist Theory of Constitutional Justice Assessing Liberal Democracy in Times of Rising Populism and Illiberalism
Free Download Michel Rosenfeld, "A Pluralist Theory of Constitutional Justice: Assessing Liberal Democracy in Times of Rising Populism and Illiberalism"
English | ISBN: 0198862687 | 2023 | 320 pages | EPUB, PDF | 904 KB + 17 MB
In recent years, liberal constitutionalism has come under sharp attack. Globalization has caused huge disparities in wealth, identity-based alienation triggered by mass migration, and accompanying erosions of democracy. Liberal populists have also adapted the framework of liberal institutionalism, masking their aim to subvert its core values. These developments bring the links between justice and the constitution to the fore, particularly concerning distributive justice in its three dimensions of redistribution, recognition, and representation.

Assessing the Common Core What's Gone Wrong––and How to Get Back on Track
Free Download Robert C. Calfee, Kathleen M. Wilson, Dr. Milton Chen, "Assessing the Common Core: What's Gone Wrong-and How to Get Back on Track"
English | 2016 | pages: 218 | ISBN: 146252432X, 1462524338 | PDF | 3,8 mb
From distinguished educators, this book imagines what our schools could look like if an authentic vision of the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) were put in place, and thoughtfully critiques how and why implementation has faltered. The authors outline a curriculum framework that focuses on student-based inquiry and the use of formative assessment to monitor and guide student learning. They provide workable, innovative alternatives to the packaged instructional programs and summative tests that have come to be associated with the English language arts (ELA) standards. Vignettes of diverse schools and districts highlight a range of successful approaches to making the CCSS work.

E-BooksAssessing the Reliability of Complex Models Mathematical and Statistical Foundations of Verification, Validation, and U



Assessing the Reliability of Complex Models Mathematical and Statistical Foundations of Verification, Validation, and U
Free Download National Research Council, "Assessing the Reliability of Complex Models: Mathematical and Statistical Foundations of Verification, Validation, and U"
English | ISBN: 0309256348 | 2012 | 144 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
Advances in computing hardware and algorithms have dramatically improved the ability to simulate complex processes computationally. Today's simulation capabilities offer the prospect of addressing questions that in the past could be addressed only by resource-intensive experimentation, if at all. Assessing the Reliability of Complex Models recognizes the ubiquity of uncertainty in computational estimates of reality and the necessity for its quantification.

E-BooksAssessing Pragmatic Competence in the Japanese EFL Context Towards the Learning of Listener Responses



Assessing Pragmatic Competence in the Japanese EFL Context Towards the Learning of Listener Responses
Free Download Pino Cutrone, "Assessing Pragmatic Competence in the Japanese EFL Context: Towards the Learning of Listener Responses"
English | ISBN: 1443846066 | 2013 | 375 pages | PDF | 2 MB
With a focus on intercultural communication between Japanese and Americans, this book describes how differing listening styles and conversational behaviours across cultures can negatively influence intercultural communication. Responding to the many calls for studies examining the teachability of listener responses in the language classroom, the author investigates whether listener responses would be a suitable target for instruction in the EFL/ESL classroom, and, if so, what instructional methods are best suited to teaching this elusive aspect of pragmatic competence. By addressing these issues, this book provides exciting and novel insights into various aspects of applied linguistics. By supplementing language data and questionnaires with retrospective and longitudinal research techniques, the author is able to present a much richer description and deeper understanding of how and why participants used listener responses in the manner they did. With the findings supporting an explicit approach to teaching listener responses, this book provides language practitioners with a direction in which to move forward. Beyond this practical application, this study sheds new light into such theoretical debates as the role of consciousness in language teaching (the Explicit vs. Implicit debate), the universality of Grice s theory of conversation and the potentially differing conceptualisations of politeness across cultures.

Assessing Measurement Invariance for Applied Research
Free Download Craig S. Wells, "Assessing Measurement Invariance for Applied Research "
English | ISBN: 1108485227 | 2021 | 250 pages | PDF | 6 MB
This book focuses on the practical application of statistical techniques for assessing measurement invariance with less emphasis on theoretical development or exposition. Instead, it describes the methods using a pedagogical framework followed by extensive illustrations that demonstrate how to use software to analyze real data. The chapters illustrate the practical methods to assess measurement invariance and shows how to apply them to a range of data. The computer syntax and data sets used in this book are available for download here: people.umass.edu/cswells.
