A Young Actor's Scene Book - Barbara Marchant - Bog - Scarecrow Press - Plusbog.dk

A Young Actor's Scene Book - Barbara Marchant - Bog - Scarecrow Press - Plusbog.dk

The task of finding scene material for young actors that is within their experiential and emotional plane is a particular problem for the acting teacher. Barbara Marchant has created a valuable reference especially for teachers working with young actors. A Young Actor''s Scene Book: A Training Tool is a collection of scenes specifically chosen with the undergraduate actor in mind. The material is based on issues that young people can relate to and which has enough content to make it worthwhile for them and the teacher to work on. Marchant has helpfully arranged the scenes in categories for beginning and advanced students. She has also added a section of style and language scenes for those actors with the requisite skills to tackle them. The book includes scenes from plays by Arthur Miller, Oscar Wilde, Bernard Shaw, Tom Stoppard, and David Rimmer, among others. An invaluable resource, A Young Actor''s Scene Book will be useful to teachers in their ongoing quest to develop and reinforce the repertoire of their students.

Strategic Planning for School Library Media Centers - Carolyn Markuson - Bog - Scarecrow Press - Plusbog.dk

Strategic Planning for School Library Media Centers - Carolyn Markuson - Bog - Scarecrow Press - Plusbog.dk

A strategic plan is a useful tool for communicating the purpose of the library media center (LMC) to the administrators, teachers, and parents of the school community. An initial benefit is an assessment of the library program''s strengths, weaknesses, and impact on the teaching and learning process. The library media specialist should use the planning process to garner greater support, identify priorities for future direction, provide the basis for effective budget development, and articulate the LMC''s integral role in the school''s instructional program. Based on Information Power, as well as input from focus groups of librarians, computer educators, teachers, administrators, and parents, the authors identified a core of the essential elements found in quality library media programs. Rubrics developed for this core provide a foundation for developing and prioritizing goals and objectives, as well as tools for ongoing evaluation. School library media centers, often short of time and staff, will welcome this easy-to-follow blueprint, packed with forms, questions to consider, templates, rubrics, and charts. From forming a committee and constructing surveys, to good PR and a consistent evaluation process, this essential handbook provides the tools to create a visionary mission statement, the strategic plan that embodies it, and the steps to implement it.

The Heart Has Its Reasons - Christine A. Jenkins - Bog - Scarecrow Press - Plusbog.dk

The Heart Has Its Reasons - Christine A. Jenkins - Bog - Scarecrow Press - Plusbog.dk

Society does not make it easy for young people, regardless of their sexual orientation, to find accurate, nonjudgmental information about homosexuality. It makes it even more difficult for young homosexuals to find positive role models in fiction either written or published expressly for them or—if published for adults—relevant to them and their lives. The Heart Has Its Reasons examines these issues and critically evaluates the body of literature published for young adults that offers homosexual themes and characters. Cart and Jenkins chart the evolution of the field of YA literature having GLBTQ (gay/lesbian/bisexual, transgendered, and/or queer/questioning) content. They identify titles that are remarkable either for their excellence or failures, noting the stereotypic, wrongheaded, and outdated books as well as the accurate, thoughtful, and tactful titles. Useful criteria for evaluating books with GLBTQ content are provided. Books and resources of all types are reviewed based on a model that uses the category descriptors of Homosexual Visibility, Gay Assimilation, and Queer Consciousness/Community. An annotated bibliography and a number of author-title lists of books discussed in the text arranged by subject round out this valuable reference for teachers, librarians, parents, and young adults.

Philosopher at the Keyboard - Elizabeth Angilette - Bog - Scarecrow Press - Plusbog.dk

Philosopher at the Keyboard - Elizabeth Angilette - Bog - Scarecrow Press - Plusbog.dk

This is a provocative account of pianist Glenn Gould''s intellectual and musical thought. Gould was a philosopher who incessantly pursued wisdom through his art. If the reader follows Gould''s ardent campaign through the metaphorical thicket found in his ideas, a compelling Gouldian model for a philosophy of music unfolds. Gould argues that music is not only a reflection of social dynamics, but could also be a tool for the betterment of society. The original methodology conceived and implemented in this study contributes an important design for subsequent historical/philosophical studies, particularly in music education.

Small Library Cataloging - Herbert Hoffman - Bog - Scarecrow Press - Plusbog.dk

Small Library Cataloging - Herbert Hoffman - Bog - Scarecrow Press - Plusbog.dk

Completely updated, with a new section on using the computer in the cataloging function, this new edition of a classic will be a welcome tool for the volunteer or paraprofessional in a small library. Covering the essentials in clear nontechnical language, Hoffman explains the how and why of arranging publications, the principles of cataloging (including description, main and added entries, analytics, the shelf list, cross references, and filing), and online records. Nearly 100 examples illustrate the cataloging practice. Why do you need a shelf list? What is an authority file? Easy to understand and practical, this gem illuminates the world of monographs, series, irregular serials, uniform titles, simple and complex subject headings, tracings, and location codes. Even the world of the small library is startlingly complex—Hoffman''s guide will simplify it. Reviews of previous editions: "Hoffman''s guide to simplified cataloging practice will be a great help…this handbook lays out the options of collection organization clearly and in everyday language." -Booklist "Because of its emphasis on fundamentals, rigorous reasoning, and its readable style, the book is also helpful for library school students as well as for practicing librarians." -Reference & Research Book News "…will provide its intended reader, the nonprofessional or volunteer in charge of a small library, with solid, well-organized information necessary to catalog a collection systematically."

Music Cataloging Bulletin - - Bog - Scarecrow Press - Plusbog.dk

Music catalogers have long considered the Music Cataloging Bulletin an indispensable tool. With this 10-year cumulative index and supplement, catalogers have a convenient, extensive subject index and a practical way to review changes to the classification schedules and subject headings made during the 1990s. This publication comprises the fifth cumulative index and supplement to the Music Cataloging Bulletin (MCB), a monthly publication of the Music Library Association. It covers the information contained in volumes 21-30 (1990-1999) and is in five sections, mirroring the organization of information in the Bulletin. The subject index section expands on the annual indexes to include entries for all names, committees, task forces, and publications, as well as cataloging and MARC tagging changes mentioned in the monthly issues, including the two years where no annual index was issued (1994 and 1999). The index identifies acronyms and abbreviations and places entries in their organizational hierarchy when appropriate. In the section containing the Library of Congress Classification additions and changes, each entry appears in its complete hierarchical context. A separate section covers additions, changes and cancellations to music-related Library of Congress Subject Headings, as reported in these issues of MCB. This section includes cross-references from a cancelled heading to its replacement. Additional sections include a list of all new reference work titles added to the Library of Congress'' Music Section during this time period, and a compilation of changes or additions to thematic indexes used in formulating uniform titles for music, as reported by the Library of Congress.

Convergence of Project Management and Knowledge Management - - Bog - Scarecrow Press - Plusbog.dk

Convergence of Project Management and Knowledge Management - - Bog - Scarecrow Press - Plusbog.dk

Knowledge is power, but this is especially true for teams carrying out a project. As in other arenas, the effective use of knowledge is possible only if it is readily accessible, well organized, properly analyzed, and competently disseminated to meet the project needs. Knowledge gained from project failures or successes is vital for the long term sustainability of organizations to compete in the business environment. This book focuses on the proper access and delivery methods for explicit knowledge in projects and also concentrates on tacit knowledge unknown and unavailable to most people in project environments. Every project is unique with start and end dates, detailed project plan, budget, schedule, human resources, and deliverables, and all these areas have a high volume of rich knowledge. Knowledge is created and flows through all nine project knowledge areas: Project Integration Management; Project Scope Management; Project Time Management; Project Cost Management; Project Quality Management; Project Human Resources Management; Project Communications Management; Project Risk Management; and Project Procurement Management. This book discusses the benefits of managing knowledge in projects and provides techniques that will increase the rate of return on projects. Addressing strategy and deployment issues, this volume also provides case studies, making this an invaluable tool for the success of projects and sustainability/growth of organizations.
