Curriculum Objective: #

Summary/Etc: "By promoting and highlighting teacher-researcher partnerships as one avenue for improvement and transparency, the chapters in this book demonstrate the potential of translanguaging pedagogies in classrooms and further resist the linguistic hierarchies that exist in educational institutions today"--

Summary/Etc: Provided by publisher.

Summary/Etc: This book presents one possible pathway towards the advancement of translanguaging pedagogies: teacher researcher partnerships. Although the existing literature alludes to the value of such partnerships, there is a lack of research that explicitly describes the complex processes of designing and implementing translanguaging pedagogies in primary and secondary school settings (K-12) across various international contexts. Through an expanded focus on teacher researcher collaboration and the negotiation process, the book unpacks the opportunities and challenges of engaging in contextualized translanguaging designs with reference to broader ideological discourses and systemic structures. By promoting and highlighting teacher researcher partnerships as one avenue for improvement and transparency, the chapters in this book demonstrate the potential of translanguaging pedagogies in classrooms and further resist the linguistic hierarchies that exist in educational institutions today.

My goal is to emphasize the material that students should and do find interesting about the study of the economy." To help you further master the key principles of microeconomics in this edition, powerful student-focused digital resources are available in the leading MindTap digital learning and homework solution. -- Provided by the publisher.

Summary/Etc: "My freshman course on the principles of economics opened my eyes to a new way of thinking. Economics combines the virtues of politics and science. It is, truly, a social science. Its subject matter is society -- how people choose to lead their lives and how they interact with one another -- but it approaches the subject with the dispassion of a science. By bringing the methods of science to the questions of politics, economics aims to make progress on the challenges that all societies face. I wrote this book with the hope that I could convey some of the excitement about economics that I felt as a student in my first economics course. Economics is a subject in which a little knowledge goes a long way. Economists have a unique world-view, much of which can be taught in one or two semesters. My goal in this book is to transmit this way of thinking to the widest possible audience and to convince readers that it illuminates much about their lives and the world around them. Economics aims to understand the world in which we live. Most chapters of this book include Case Studies that illustrate how the principles of economics can be applied. In the News boxes offer excerpts from newspapers, magazines, and online news sources to show how economic ideas shed light on current issues facing society. After students finish their first course in economics, they should think about news reports from a new perspective and with greater insight. To keep the study of economics fresh and relevant for each new cohort of students, I update each edition to keep pace with the ever-changing world."--adapted from Preface to the Instructor, page v.

Summary/Etc: "According to the World Health Organization, better health is the key to human happiness and well-being. Many factors influence one's health status, including some shared by various government and health agencies, such as safe living environments and access to proper health care. However, in general, one's personal health over the course of a lifetime is dependent more upon personal lifestyle choices, two of the most important being proper exercise and healthy eating. In the twenty-first century, our love affair with fitness and sports continues to grow. Worldwide, although rates of physical inactivity are still prevalent in developed nations, there are millions of children and adults who are active in physical activities such as bicycling, running, swimming, walking, and weight training. Improvements in health and fitness are major reasons more and more people initiate an exercise program, but many may also become more interested in sports competition, such as age-group road racing; running and walking race competitions have become increasingly popular, and every weekend numerous road races can be found within a short drive. Research has shown that adults who become physically active also may become more interested in other aspects of their lifestyles-particularly nutrition-that may affect their health in a positive way. Indeed, according to all major health organizations, proper exercise and a healthful diet are two of the most important lifestyle behaviors to help prevent chronic disease"--

Curriculum Objective: #

Summary/Etc: "Mathematics is the language of physics, and over time physicists have developed their own dialect. The main purpose of this book is to bridge this language barrier, and introduce the readers to the beauty of mathematical physics. It shows how to combine the strengths of both approaches: physicists often arrive at interesting conjectures based on good intuition, which can serve as the starting point of interesting mathematics. Conversely, mathematicians can more easily see commonalities between very different fields (such as quantum mechanics and electromagnetism), and employ more advanced tools. Rather than focussing on a particular topic, the book showcases conceptual and mathematical commonalities across different physical theories. It translates physical problems to concrete mathematical questions, shows how to answer them and explains how to interpret the answers physically. For example, if two Hamiltonians are close, why are their dynamics is similar? The book alternates between mathematics- and physics-centric chapters, and includes plenty of concrete examples from physics throughout as well as 76 exercises with solutions. It exploits that readers from either end are familiar with some of the material already. The mathematics-centric chapters provide the necessary background to make physical concepts mathematically precise and establish basic facts. And each physics-centric chapter introduces physical theories in a way that is more friendly to mathematicians. As the book progresses, advanced material is sprinkled for further detailed exploration. This is to keep it interesting for the readers and to showcase non-trivial examples where mathematics and physics augment one another"--

Titles By: Kulkarni, Prafull Dhondopant.

Curriculum Objective: Semantics of English

Summary/Etc: The science of meanings in languages is known as semantics. For undergraduate students this concise and thorough textbook serves as an introduction to the topic. It not only gives students the concept they need to comprehend the fundamental of semantics but also introduces them to the many types of reasoning and argumentation that are common in the discipline. It includes numerous discussion areas that are meant to test and to improve the comprehension of readers. It effectively explains and contrasts alternative theoretical perfectives, summarizes currents disputes, and give useful suggestions for future reading, making it more comprehensive than other textbooks. Example are gathered from both major and minor global languages, including Mandarin Chinese, Japanese, Arabic, Spanish, and English. The book also emphasizes the links between semantics and the larger field of human language research in psychology, anthropology, and linguistics. Semantics, in general is the branch of linguistics and tells its meaning. Semantic as a term was coined in 1883 by Michael Breal, in a French philologist, to described how words may have varying meanings for different individuals based on their experiences and emotional histories. A language might be natural, such as French, Italian, Dutch, or Hindi or artificial, such as computer programming language. Theoretical computer scientist are concerned with the study and development of of artificial languages, whereas linguists are concerned with natural languages. The idea of introducing human language to computers and making them talk as casually as humans have advanced tremendously during the previous two decades. Semantics is a subject of linguistics and a discipline of language concerned with the study of the meaning of various type of linguistic units, ranging from smaller linguistic units such as words, sentences, or phrases To larger units of speech, collectively referred to as texts. Historically, Semantics has been concerned with two primary characteristics of the meaning of language utterances. The first is an extensional (or denotational) element of meaning, which is concerned with the relationship between linguistic expression and the objects to which they refer, sometimes referred to as denotations. For example, the expressions "two" and the smallest prime number " both refer to the same thing, namely the number two. As a result these phrase are deemed to be extensionally equivalent. The other consideration is the intensity (or connotative). This chapter discusses the relationship between linguistic expressions and the features of their linked meanings that are not represented by the extensional aspect of meaning and are sometimes referred to as "concepts" The expression "two" and" The lowest prime number" both refer to same thing, yet they do so via distinct concepts. Another tradition is to see linguistics oppressions as having distinct fixed meanings and to examine the relationship between different linguistic expression in terms of their semantic similarity. This category comprises homonymy, synonymy, anatomy, polysemy, paronymy, hyponymy, meronymy, and metonymy. The books is divided into eight chapters deals with the introduction to semantics and formal semantics. The remaining six chapters focus on the interpretation of different types of semantics including sentential semantics, lexical semantics, dialogue semantics, discourse semantics, interface semantics, cognitive semantics, and semantics theories. This book is equally beneficial for students, professionals, and academics working in the field of linguistics, and semantics.

In this book the author guides the reader through the historical evolution of communication and human rights. In this original framework, he discusses topics such as the right to communicate and freedom of expression, as well as major challenges posed by the environmental crisis and digital technologies. With authority, he passionately argues that 'communicative justice' is the ultimate goal of applying the international human rights regime to different forms of communication. This goal can only be achieved if we manage to move from the prevailing 'thin' liberal conception of human rights to a 'thick' cosmopolitan conception of them Written by one of the world's leading scholars in this area, this wide ranging book will be of interest to students of media and communication, human rights scholars, as well as practitioners, activists and anyone interested in applying the notion of justice to the basis of human existence: communication.

Titles By: Kumar, Arvind,

Curriculum Objective: Visual Perception

Curriculum Objective: Visual Concept Development

Summary/Etc: The visual arts are art forms such as painting, drawing, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics, photography, video, filmmaking, design, crafts and architecture. Many artistic disciplines such as performing arts, conceptual art, and textile arts also involve aspects of visual arts as well as arts of other types. Also included within the visual arts are applied arts such as industrial design, graphic design, fashion design, interior design and decorative art. Current usage of the term "visual arts" includes fine art as well as the applied or decorative arts and crafts, but this was not always the case. Before the Arts and Crafts Movement in Britain and elsewhere at the turn of the 20th century, the term 'artist' had for some centuries often been restricted to a person working in the fine arts ( such as painting, sculpture, or printmaking) and not the decorative arts, craft, or applied Visual arts media. The distinction was emphasized by artists of the Arts and Crafts Movement, who valued vernacular art forms as much as high forms. Art schools made a distinction between the fine arts and the crafts, maintaining that a craftsperson could not be considered a practitioner of the arts. The increasing tendency to prefer the painting styles, and to do a lesser degree sculpture, of technique or style over another has been a feature of artist throughout the ages. In many instances painting has been seen as relying to the highest degree on the imagination of the artist, and the furthest removed from manual labor- Chinese painting the most highly valued styles were those of " school-painting", at least in theory practiced by gentleman amateurs . The western hierarchy of genres reflected similar attitudes. Visual artist are no longer limited to traditional Visual arts media. Computers have been used as an ever more common tool in the visual arts since the 1960s. Many traditional disciplines are now integrating digital technologies and, as a result, the lines between traditional works of art and new media works created using computers have been blurred. This book covers a broad range of visual art creation. Students learn about and use the tools needed to produce works of art in various styles and techniques. They prepare portfolios of their best works and learn how to analyze and reflect on works of art.

Curriculum Objective: Communication, Culture and Society

Curriculum Objective: Mass Media Evangelism

Summary/Etc: "This book is all about students. It may seem obvious to say that of a textbook. However, along with having (mostly) students as its audience, the book has students - my students - at its heart as well. The finished product is a milestone on a journey through two decades of teaching students who were new to the ideas in the book. Many of my students have played a part in what this book has become, and a few of their voices are heard within it. The book arises out of a module I developed and currently teach. The way I explain concepts and outline analyses of language, media and society - and, perhaps more importantly, the ways in which I encourage you, my readers, to arrive at your own explanations of concepts and your own analyses of language, media and society - comes from experiences in my classes. Joyful experiences where things work and students 'get it', and not so joyful experiences where students don't quite get it, or feel less confident than I want them to feel with the topic, which push me to reflect on what to do differently next time. I was just delighted, therefore, when one of the peer reviewers of the book wrote that 'the lived classroom really feels like it has come into this book'; that sums up what I was trying to achieve. The topics covered in this book, and the relationship between them, are things that we all know something about, and that we all care about. In some of the topics, you will have more lived experience and reflection to bring to it than I do. For those reasons, I've included tasks and reflections that I hope will help you recognise what you already know or appreciate, and enable you to take your own unique journey through the ideas in the book. I have purposefully written the book in a relatively conversational style. There are limits to that when one is writing a book, of course; indeed, that delicate dance between context and appropriateness of style is something that I write about in the book. However, I have always thought that having that big theoretical idea or hugely insightful analysis only gets a researcher or educator half way to where they want or need to be; the job is only fully done, in my opinion, when we have communicated the theory or analysis in language that anyone who cares to listen can understand".

Curriculum Objective: #

Summary/Etc: Nasa Brussels si Jose Rizal noong Hunyo 1890 nang balakin niyang isulat ang karugtong ng nobelang Noli Me Tangere. Natapos niya ang El Filibusterismo makalipas ang isang taon sa kabila ng mga paglalakbay at ibang sulatin. Bandang Agosto 1891 nang ipasok ni Rizal ang El Filibusterismo sa isang imprenta sa Ghent. Patigil-tigil at nagtagal ang paglimbag dahil kinakapos siya sa salaping pambayad. Gayunman, nalathala ang nobela noong Setyembre 18, 1891. Tulad ng Noli Me Tangere, itinuring na subersibo ang El Filibusterismo ng mga Espanyol sa Filipinas, lalo na ng mga fraile. Nang umuwi si Rizal, dinakip siya, ipinatapon sa Dapitan noong Hulyo 15, 1892, at binitay noong Disyembre 30, 1896 kaugnay ng sumiklab na Himagsikang Filipino. Malaki ang hinala ng mga Espanyol na kung hindi man tunay siyang kasabwat ay bisa ng kaniyang pagsulat ang malaganap na pag-aalsa ng mga Filipino. Dinadakila ngayon ang mga nobela ni Rizal bilang matalim na pagsusuri sa lipunang kolonyal at feudal at bilang huwaran ng malikhain at realistang pagsulat nang may kalakip na mithiing pampolitika.

Summary/Etc: Natapos sulatin ni Jose Rizal ang Noli Me Tangere noong Pebrero 21, 1887 sa Berlin at lumabas sa limbagan pagkaraan nang mahigit isang buwan. Noong Agosto 30 sa taon ding iyon, ipinagbawal sa Filipinas ang pag-aari at pagbasa sa naturang nobela, alinsunod sa batas ng Arsobispo ng Maynila. Kinumpirma ng lupon sa sensura ang pagbabawal dahil tahasan itong tumutuligsa, diumano, sa relihiyon ng mga estado, mga institusyon, at mga kagalang-galang na tao sa FIlipinas sa panahon ng kolonyalismong Espanyol bukod sa hitik ito sa mga "kaisipang banyaga" na maaaring pumukaw ng poot laban sa Espanya. Hindi makatarungan ang pagbabawal. Ngunit tama ang mga awtoridad dahil kasama ng karugtong na nobelang El Filibusterismo ay pinatunayan ng kasaysayan ang bisa ng panulat ni Rizal sa pagkamulat ng mga FIlipino. Makalipas ng ilang taon, sumiklab ang Himagsikang Filipino na tumapos sa mahabang pananakop ng mga Espanyol. Dinadakila ngayon ang mga nobela ni Rizal bilang matalim na pagsusuri sa lipunang kolonyal at feudal at bilang huwaran ng malikhain at realistang pagsulat nang may kalakip na mithiing pampolitika.

Summary/Etc: Food and water-borne diseases (FWBDs) constitute a wide range of rising global public health problem. FWBD's causative agents are microorganisms that may be classified as viruses, bacteria, and parasites. Aloe Vera ( Aloe barbadensis Miller) is widely used worldwide. Evidences shows that Aloe Vera (Aloe barbadensis Miller) gel and leave extract contains many medicinal properties but not much attention is given to establish the antimicrobial ability against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella typhimurium of the root extracts. The goal of this study is to determine the antimicrobial properties of the Aloe barbadensis Miller root extract against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Salmonella typhimurium. The plant authenticity was determined. The study utilized a complete randomized design to determine the phytochemical properties and antimicrobial efficacy of Aloe Vera ( Aloe barbadensis Miller) root extract against Escgerichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Salmonella typhimurium. The root extraction of Aloe vera ( Aloe barbadensis Miller) was tested according to the procedure of Standards and Testing Division of the Department of Science and Technology (DOST). Qualitative analysis was also used to determine the phytochemical constituents of the root extract. Antimicrobial Assay was done to test the susceptibility of the root extract to Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Salmonella typhimurium. Positive control (Amikacin and Oxacillin) was used as a comparison. The result of antimicrobial screening of the root extract reveals a complete inhibitory activity with mild reactivity against the test organism Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Salmonella typhimurium, which is comparable with Amikacin and Oxacillin. It is therefore recommended that similar studies be conducted to establish the antimicrobial property of the plant.

Summary/Etc: One of the conditions that may impede exclusively breastfeeding is a less known condition Insufficient Glandular Tissue (IGT) which presents as the underdevelopment of the breast tissue that leads to limited milk production that affects around 1 in 1000 women (0.01 percent) according research studies. Paucity in research concerning IGT compelled the researchers to gain a better understanding of the mother's breastfeeding journey despite the limitation with the intention to raise recognition and awareness of the condition. This qualitative case study utilized a semi structured questionnaire and data sets were identified through thematic analysis. The corpus of the study was gathered from 4 informants. The following themes emerged in the study namely: Questioning and Challenging Circumstances, Supportive Milieu, Empowerment Despite the Odds. While IGT limits the maternal breastmilk production, it does not necessarily incapacitate a mother to breastfeed. Early recognition, anticipatory guidance, and skilled help from care providers will equip the breastfeeding dyad and enable them to avoid and even overcome challenges that will otherwise cause breastfeeding cessation. Furthermore, a supportive environment that enables and provides resources will foster the breastfeeding relationship and allow the moms to meet their goals. Based on the results, the researchers recommend that further studies on IGT be done and capacity-building among care providers be instituted to increase awareness of this condition and consequently, increasing competency.

Summary/Etc: The current COVID-19 pandemic has forced the faculty and staff of the universities to adapt in a work-from-home environment in which stressors such as family-work conflict and pressure to learn the new technologies are present. Despite of the undeniable existence of technostress, only few research focus on the stress levels of telecommuting University faculty and their relevant factors. Hence, the objective of this study is to investigate the relationship of work-family conflict (WFC) and technostress among telecommuting university faculty. This cross-sectional descriptive correlational study purposively sampled 125 employees of a private university in the 2020-2021 school year who were telecommuting for at least 6 months. Respondents answered an online survey questionnaire composed of 3 parts: the demographic profile, WFC scale, and technostress scale. The descriptive statistics using SPSS 24 revealed that the respondents have moderate WFC and moderate technostress. Although there were no significant differences in the technostress of the respondents considering age, sex, and presence of dependent child, inferential statistics using SPSS 24 Spearman Rank correlation revealed that there was a significant moderate positive correlation between WFC and technostress. Hence, for future study it is imperative to explore other sources of technostress such as organizational commitment, employee engagement, and technological competencies. Lastly, it is also recommended to explore appropriate work-set up, work loadings, and work schedule to prevent work-family spill over in telecommuting employees.

Summary/Etc: This study aims to explore the lived experiences of student nurses on online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic in a private institution in Silang, Cavite. Using purposive sampling and Van Kaam's method, the researchers interviewed 9 students individually through Zoom meetings. The data was transcribed and saturated until no new information was collected. It was found out that most of the students are faced with both mental and emotional stress. Since some students live abroad, the time difference is one of the challenges. Student-respondents had a hard time dealing with the current set-up, including internet stability, availability of materials to be used in activities and academic adjustments. They recalled spending most of their time at home, not getting enough sleep owing to the time difference, and being unable to keep up with demands, resulting in anxiety and emotional exhaustion. When the interview findings were analyzed, it was found that time management is one of the student-respondents' coping techniques. Some respondents echoed these comments, stating that, while the pandemic forced a significant change in the current system, appropriate time management prioritization are some of the strategies to deal with the situation. In terms of the lived experiences of nursing students during the pandemic, five emerging concerns have been identified: issues on the time difference, academic adjustments, availability of resources, mental and physical impact, and distraction during online class. Further, in terms of challenges that the respondents had experienced and their coping mechanisms, the researchers conclude that time management, engagement to different diversions, and family and friend support are the coping mechanisms of students-respondents. Given the current situation, student-respondents can manage several challenges brought by the pandemic, such as making huge adjustments from the things they get used to and overcoming loneliness, mental and emotional stressors by engaging in activities that deviate their minds to something positive.
