Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Highlights innovative partnership practices that help create educational opportunities for students in rural schools across the United States. As editors Sara L. Hartman and Bob Klein acknowledge, rural places have long experienced systemic inequities that decrease rural students' access to education, yet many rural schools and communities have found creative means to make up for the dearth of outside resources. The Middle of Somewhere brings to light a wide variety of partnerships that have been forged between K–12 schools, communities, and postsecondary institutions to improve educational access. The book showcases collaborations that address three different areas of need: partnerships that prepare and support teacher candidates and educators who work in rural areas; partnerships that extend the work of rural education networks; and partnerships that promote equity, justice, and inclusion within rural populations. Using case studies of rural educational partnerships from communities across the United States, the book's contributors share their experiences of how strong partnerships have formed both organically and through thoughtful and intentional planning, and they recommend supportive strategies for their development and sustainment. The contributors also explore the many ways in which university–school–community partnerships incubate solutions to challenges common to rural education systems, such as access to STEM education and higher education. The programs featured here may serve as replicable models for practitioners, researchers, and policy makers who want to enrich the experiences of children in their schools and communities.

One night, the New Order Police arrive for Jake's best friend, Jos; she has been labeled an "undesirable," and Jake blames himself for her disappearance. Quickly, Jake is forced to consider the horrors of the outside world. His grandfather explains the facts of the long-ago war, and Jake now realizes his own life might be in danger. He may end up like Jos. The sudden change of events in Jake's peaceful life has something to do with a mysterious man named Jack and the Book of Destiny, now in Jake's possession. On the run, Jake has trouble recognizing friend or foe, especially when there is a demon out for his soul.

Download or read book Gospels of the New Nile written by John Kilian and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2001 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religious works are written and read through a prism of faith. How much of the truth navigates this filtration is an open question. This combination of fact and faith creates the beliefs of people. The prevalent beliefs of society evolve with the ebb and flow of faith among its members. The facts of the matter may be immutable, but our understanding of the meaning of the known world yields to the less objective realm of belief. Those who take the lead in governing the beliefs of others are soon exempt from review by rational standards. In such times, anything that is believed can be conceived. This book takes us on a journey through time to a point in the future when all that exists today has suffered from the exacting toll time takes on the works of mere mortals. Nothing humans create, believe, or otherwise conceive stands this test of time. Only human nature continues unabated, endlessly pitting the need of individuals for freedom against society’s need for order.
