""This is an excellent source of ideas on using the media to enrich science teaching and engage pupils. It contains numerous ideas on using newspapers and other sources in science and how to encourage young people to read them carefully and critically." Prof Jerry Wellington, School of Education, University of Sheffield, UK "Throughout the book, all the ideas, content, suggestions and arguments are supported by in-depth research and solid referencing, making this an authoritative, yet eminently readable, reference volume for current and would-be secondary science teachers." School Science Review Science-related news stories have great potential as a resource for teaching and learning about science and its impact on society. By demonstrating the relevance of the subject in everyday life, they can form a valuable bridge between the school classroom and the ‘real world’. Worldwide, those advocating science education reform stress the need to promote ‘scientific literacy’ among young people and typically this includes equipping students to critically engage with science reports in the media. However, very little guidance exists for those who wish to do so. Developing Scientific Literacy addresses this gap, offering a much-needed framework for teachers wishing to explore ‘science in the media’ in secondary schools or colleges. It suggests how teachers across a number of subject areas can collaborate to promote among young people an aptitude and ability to engage thoughtfully with science in the media. Drawing on research and development work, the authors: Describe key characteristics of science news reporting Discuss its potential as a resource for teaching and learning about science and for developing young people’s criticality in respect of such reports Identify appropriate instructional objectives and suggest activities through which these might be achieved This timely book is a source of valuable ideas and insights for all secondary science teachers. It will also be of interest to those with responsibilities for initial teacher training and continuing professional development.

Heat up your summer with three romantic yet clean reads you can take anywhere—be it the beach, vacation, a day relaxing in the sun, or your favorite chair for a moment of downtime. In Halflings, book one of the Halflings series, after being repeatedly attacked by an evil force, seventeen-year-old Nikki finds herself under the watchful guardianship of Mace, Raven, and Vine, three mysterious young men who call themselves halflings. The three boys vow to Nikki safe while hiding their deepest secret—and the wings that come with. But a growing attraction between Nikki and two of her protectors presents a whole other danger. As the mysteries behind the boys’ powers, as well as her role in a scientist’s dark plan, unfold, Nikki is faced with choices that may affect the earthly and heavenly worlds. In Summer by Summer, Summer took a nanny job in Belize as a fresh start before college, but things take a turn when she finds herself trapped on an island with Bray, a boy she can’t stand. But as their time on the island wears on, the issues that kept them at odds begin to drop away, and both Bray and Summer discover that each may be able to provide the healing they’ve been searching for. And in Doon, book one of the Doon series, Veronica keeps seeing visions of an attractive kilted stranger. When she and her best friend, Kenna, find themselves in Scotland for a summer, what appeared to be a sign she was going crazy becomes an adventure when Veronica and Kenna are zapped across the Alloway Bridge and into a world that appears to be a real-life fairy tale. Veronica soon comes face to face with the boy from her dreams, but the kingdom of Doon holds a dark underbelly that may prevent Veronica’s happily ever after before it can even begin.

In providing a comprehensive perspective on the field, it goes well beyond being a mere ‘introduction’. Not only does it deliver an encyclopaedic amount of information, but it also presents this information in an incredibly captivating manner. There is simply no other book on the topic to match it. This new edition, truly faithful to its predecessors, maps new innovations in the context of previous generations’ viewpoints. This is ‘the’ book on counselling and psychotherapy.” Ladislav Timulak, PhD, Course Director, Doctorate in Counselling Psychology, Trinity College Dublin “John McLeod has a talent for bringing readers into intimate contact with the experience of another person's experience. Through his evocative descriptions, accessible language, and plentiful examples you will find yourself looking through the eyes of both clients and therapists and developing a depth of understanding about important processes in psychotherapy. His position at the vanguard of psychotherapy research allows him to bring to life the practice of psychotherapy while posing research questions and stimulating curiosity about findings.
