This indispensable book helps school practitioners go beyond putting a label on student behavior problems--it shows how to use assessment to partner with teachers and students to develop effective solutions. The authors provide a framework for determining the types of behavioral data that are needed in a given situation, selecting appropriate measures, and interpreting and organizing the results. Case examples tie it all together, demonstrating how different assessment strategies can be used to support positive behavior and monitor progress at the level of the individual, the classroom, or the

This work - the first of a two-volume series - argues that stakeholder thinking has evolved into the study of interactive, mutually engaged and responsive relationships that establish the very context of doing modern business, and create the groundwork for transparency and accountability. The book makes it clear that in today’s societies successful companies are those that recognise that they have responsibilities to a range of stakeholders that go beyond mere compliance with the law or meeting the fiduciary responsibility inherent in maximizing returns to shareholders. If in the past, t

Charles H. Hammatt arrived in Honolulu in 1823 anxious to do business, not to save souls. Young, confident, and ambitious, Hammatt had been entrusted by a mercantile firm in Boston with the delicate task of negotiating trade agreements with Hawaiian royalty to secure sandalwood for the China Trade. We have no fears of your falling into any of the vices you will find at the Islands, his employers wrote in their detailed instructions, but it may be well to reflect on them, to be better prepared to reside in a Society where indolence, intemperance, debauchery, and gambling are so fashionable.

Although previous scholarship has acknowledged the importance of the visual arts to the Brontes, relatively little attention has been paid to the influence of music, theatre, and material culture on the siblings’ lives and literature. This interdisciplinary collection presents new research on the Brontes’ relationship to the wider world of the arts, including their relationship to the visual arts.The contributors examine the siblings’ artistic ambitions, productions, and literary representations of creative work in both amateur and professional realms. Also considered are re-

Since the 1990s, following the end of postmodernism, literary theory has lost much of its dynamics. This book aims at revitalising literary theory exploring two of its historical bases: German poetics and aesthetics. Beginning in the 1770s and ending in the 1950s, the book examines nearly 200 years of this history, thereby providing the reader with a first history of poetics as well as with bibliographies of the subject. Particular attention is paid to the aesthetics and poetics of popular philosophy, of the Hegel-school, empirical and psychological tendencies in the field since the 1860s, the

The story of Dinah receives little more than a mention in the Bible, as it gives rise to a bloody massacre. Not so with Anita Diamant’s The Red Tent (St. Martin’s Press, 1997). Diamant weaves ancient history and culture with narrative fiction to draw a picture of what life might have been like for the women in Jacob’s life. With skill and passion, Sandra Hack Polaski unravels the complexities of the biblical stories of Leah, Rachel, Zil’pah, Bil’hah, and Leah’s daughter Dinah, probing aspects of The Red Tent that give us insight into the tex
