Whether you want to start a business, reinvent your career, or you're just feeling stuck, Who Owns The Ice House? shows how a subtle shift in perspective can transform your life.

While iconic entrepreneurs like Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk often steal the spotlight, this book sheds light on the invaluable wisdom and insights hidden within the stories of everyday unlikely entrepreneurs; those who start with little or nothing yet manage to triumph against the odds. In a world that favors top performers, we rarely stop to ask ourselves: How do underdogs win?

In this transformative book, Pulitzer nominee Clifton Taulbert teams up with entrepreneurial thought leader Gary Schoeniger to deliver a powerful and compelling story that captures the essence of an entrepreneurial mindset as a framework for thinking that can empower ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary things.

Inspired by Taulbert's remarkable life story, Who Owns The Ice House? chronicles his journey from the cotton fields of the Mississippi Delta to become an internationally recognized author and entrepreneur. While Taulbert describes how the influence of an unlikely entrepreneur altered the course of his life, Schoeniger distills the universal principles derived from countless everyday entrepreneurs. What emerges is a radical rethinking of entrepreneurship as a mindset that can empower anyone to succeed.

Whether you're an aspiring entrepreneur or you're ready to chart a new course in life, this book will show you how to:

- Uncover hidden opportunities within your everyday life
- Start where you are and use what you have to get where you want to go
- Overcome self-limiting beliefs that hinder your ability to prosper and thrive
- Tap into the wisdom of experienced entrepreneurs
- Create the life you envision instead of accepting the status quo
- And so much more

By combining Taulbert's story with universal life lessons gleaned from everyday entrepreneurs, Who Owns the Ice House? shows how an entrepreneurial mindset can change the course of your life.

It's time for a whole new way of doing school

People are born systems-thinkers. Education has the power to encourage our innate connection with the complex world, yet instead our schools focus on creating a workforce educated just enough to feed the capitalist pipeline. Reminiscent of and building further on John Taylor Gatto's education critiques, The End of Education as We Know It is for people who want to create schools that teach how to live in harmony with each other, with Earth, and with all the Earth holds.

Readers will understand when and how to engage in disruptive actions, manage system tensions, support child and adult learning, and use these skills to design whole new approaches to school- ing. Far more than a call to education-reform-as-usual, Ida Rose Florez's inspiring critique:

• Provides tools to explore patterns in education, and influence new patterns that lead to change
• Gives readers specific skills for working in complex systems, whether with a group of children, a contentious school board, or state or provincial governments
• Helps readers reimagine schools as places where communities learn together in a whole new way.

This clarion call to action rings a bell for teachers, parents, grandparents, educators, and policy- makers to challenge the outdated paradigm of coercion and exploitation that shapes our current schools. It's time to build a new educational model based on a resilient and regenerative future.

Life is unpredictable and full of things we can't control.

The only thing we can truly have power over is our attitude.

We don't always have a choice in what happens to us, but we always get to choose how we respond. Adam and Adam have extracted the most valuable insights about attitude from some of the greatest minds on the topic, and distilled them into five simple lessons: Vision, Change, Learning, Fear, and Boldness. Time to say goodbye to mediocrity and hello to a kickass new attitude!

Here's what you can expect:

Vision: The first step in getting to where you want to go is knowing where you want to go in the first place. Over the next few years, you're going to get somewhere... but unless you set a bit of a vision for yourself, the place you end up may not be the place you wanted to go.Change: Having crafted your vision, you might realise that there's a little bit of a gap between where you are now and where you want to be. In order to close that gap, to move closer towards the person you want to be, you're going to need to change. Change can be scary. It means moving outside your comfort zone. But if you want to improve, change is going to be an inevitable part of the journey. Learning: As you're working toward your vision and making changes in your life, you are going to have to try new things. Things you've never done before, things you never thought you could do, but things that are vital to achieving your goals. There are times when we must learn new things, but most of us don't have an intentional approach to learning.Fear: Everything so far might sound pretty exciting. But it might also sound a little scary. Thinking about your future is scary, change is scary, trying new things is scary. Lesson 4 provides new ways to reframe fear into something that will help propel you forward rather than hold you back.Boldness: The last piece of the Attitude puzzle is that little bit of grunt, that little bit of scrappiness, that brash confidence to just get out there and have a crack. In spite of fears, in spite of not knowing exactly what to do or how to do it, a little bit of boldness might be the last thing you need to get you off the sidelines and into the arena.

The manual was designed to be worked through by individuals and then ideally discussed in small groups. However, if an individual went through the training manual by themselves it should still be a valuable experience. There is space after each question to reflect and write answers.

Today, there is a reform in education around the world. The new and advanced technologies brought to our lives by the 21st century and frequently used in our daily lives are now being used for education. They start to come up with different practices in classrooms and schools (Higher Education in Digital Age, 2016). Today, individualized learning methods are rapidly becoming widespread. Sitting comfortably in our home, we can now listen to a teacher who is lecturing anywhere in the world without distances. With the widespread use of the Internet, it is now very easy to access information in a globalizing world. Nowadays, even when mobile phones become a learning tool, it is important to have access to reliable information in the shortest way (Davidson & Goldberg, 2009). Digital transformation in education makes it possible to access information independent of time and space. Education turns into a data-driven and personal experience. With this transformation, new sources of information, mass online open courses, online libraries and even digital universities have started to enter our lives (The 2018 Digital University, 2016). It is clear that technological innovations provide an important opportunity to strengthen the equality of opportunity in higher education in the age of information and communication, and bring high standards of learning to our homes and even to our pockets. The aim of this study is to determine new approaches, theories, teaching methods, and learning styles in digital age in higher education based on theoretical and empirical studies.

Teaching and Learning at a Distance is written for introductory distance education courses for preservice or in-service teachers, and for training programs that discuss teaching distant learners or managing distance education systems. This text provides readers with the basic information needed to be knowledgeable distance educators and leaders of distance education programs.

The teacher or trainer who uses this book will be able to distinguish between appropriate uses of distance education. In this text we take the following themes:

The first theme is the definition of distance education. Before we started writing the first edition of Teaching and Learning at a Distance we carefully reviewed the literature to determine the definition that would be at the foundation of our writing. This definition is based on the work of Desmond Keegan, but is unique to this book. This definition of distance education has been adopted by the Association for Educational Communications and Technology and by the Encyclopedia Britannica.

The second theme of the book was the importance of research to the development of the contents of the book. The best practices presented in Teaching and Learning at a Distance are validated by scientific evidence. Certainly there are rules of thumb, but we have always attempted to only include recommendations that can be supported by research.

The third theme of Teaching and Learning at a Distance is derived from Richard Clark's famous quote published in the Review of Educational Research that states that media are mere vehicles that do not directly influence achievement. Clark's controversial work is discussed in the book, but is also fundamental to the book's advocacy for distance education - in other words, we authors did not make the claim that education delivered at a distance was inherently better than other ways people learn. Distance delivered instruction is not a magical approach that makes learners achieve more.

The fourth theme of the book is equivalency theory. Here we presented the concept that instruction should be provided to learners that is equivalent rather than identical to what might be delivered in a traditional environment. Equivalency theory helps the instructional designer approach the development of instruction for each learner without attempting to duplicate what happens in a face to face classroom.

The final theme for Teaching and Learning at a Distance is the idea that the book should be comprehensive - that it should cover as much of the various ways instruction is made available to distant learners as is possible. It should be a single source of information about the field.

Jesus Christ exemplified exceptional teaching skills. His instructional approach extended beyond mere information sharing. He purposed to make men disciples. Teaching individuals the Bible involves more than merely conveying information; it necessitates supporting their spiritual growth and development. Dr. Robin Moorezaid's book, Pedagogy and the Adult Bible Learner, integrates biblical principles with teaching methods based on Malcolm Knowles' five principles of adult learning to equip Bible teachers with the skills to actively engage adult learners and encourage them to progress beyond passive learning. Whether you are a pastor, educator, or leader of a Bible study, this interactive book offers excellent ideas for boosting engagement, designing lessons that stimulate critical thinking, and motivating people to gain a better comprehension of the Bible.

Dr. Robin Moorezaid is deeply dedicated to helping others realize their full potential. This motivated her to pursue a BA in English literature at Southern Illinois University in Carbondale and an MA in English at the University of St. Francis in Joliet. She devoted herself to the study of various instructional methods that prioritized learning and collaboration. She was a member of Kappa Delta Pi, the International Honor Society in Education. In the same vein, she obtained a second Master of Science in Educational Leadership from Western Governors University, which equipped her with the requisite expertise to effectively manage schools. While studying organizational leadership, she engaged in pertinent initiatives to gain valuable insights from other educators and administrators. She subsequently pursued a Ph.D. in Educational Leadership at Trident University in Cypress, California, where she concentrated her research on the factors that influence learning environments and the correlation between innovative leadership and student performance. In order to acquire the art of teaching and learning, Dr. Moorezaid turns to the master, Jesus Christ.

Ecosystems of Youth Leadership Development: Pathways to New Programs introduces new insights into youth leadership development, where the voices of youth who have been disaffected by previous programs are brought to the forefront. This is opposed to past studies where research is often grounded in understanding only the positive experiences of youth involved in leadership development. These past studies often only implement an adult-centric point of view when determining the value of youth experiences.

Serving as a guide for educators, practitioners, and communities, the book provides examples, research, and tools for analyzing existing programs and creating new programs. Readers can use this book to think about constructive ways to meaningfully connect youth to their communities and create sustainable, long-lasting relationships. Throughout these chapters, practitioners, educators, and community leaders can find studies, student testimonies, examples, and activities they can engage with to further explore the inner workings of youth leadership development programs.

How can anyone make a reasonable and confident choice among the myriad belief systems out there? While foundering in that wave of a question, he was nearly swept off his intellectual perch with an even more primitive question. Can anyone make a legitimate claim that God actually exists? Initially, he felt alone with these burning, vexing issues, but soon realized that almost everyone around him were equally perplexed when face to face with the questions. Every previous generation too had attempted to make some headway and reach a consensus. And for all those centuries, the questions seemed nowhere near settled. In fact they had only become more challenging He embarked on an intellectual journey, and after a relentless pursuit lasting decades, he settled it for himself.
