Abstract:
The development of school libraries established at schools providing elementary education in the 19th century is closely related to the development of this type of schools after 1774, when the General School Rules were published. For the first time, they referred to education as a political issue and declared the interest of the state in the education of all the population. In the 1820s, a decree of the court study committee ordered district school supervisors to inspect books in school libraries and gave them the right to decide whether a particular book fits into the school library. In 1869,

Abstract:
Comic books are becoming increasingly popular in the field of education. In the past, comic books were excluded from school libraries and classrooms. However, with the resurgence in the popularity of comic books and students’ increased demands for them, they are now considered as recreational reading with educational value. In response to this, school libraries have begun collecting comic books and including them as part of their regular collections. This research paper reflects on the current situation of comic books in primary and middle school library collections and examines school librari

If you could own only ten book on the teaching of elementary school mathematics, which would you choose? If your school's library suddenly acquired enough money to buy ten such books, which would you recommend? Which ten books on the subject would you suggest that new teachers purchase for their personal libraries? Such questions are more limited versions of the old idea of deciding which ten books you would want if you were marooned on a desert island.

Abstract:
Teacher candidates enrolled in a Civic Science for Elementary Schools course at a public university in a Midwestern state developed children's books on ecological diversity and sustainability. The children's books were analyzed qualitatively using constant comparative analyses that involved analyzing each book's images and text for evidence of key themes. Analyses demonstrated children's book creation as an instructional pedagogy and ecological diversity and sustainability as curricular content powerful to enhance ENL student engagement, identification, and learning in a new cultural, linguistic, and ecological setting. Book creation involves narrative and visual explanation of key concepts accessible to ENL learners. Ecological diversity and sustainability are values shared across regions and can enhance ENL student identification with a new school context, while valuing their knowledge funds. The public library emerged as a supportive glocal civic space to build pedagogical bridges among teacher candidates, elementary schools, and the shared community resource of children's books.

Abstract:
When the post-world war two ‘baby boomer' generation reached school age, education changed. Massive increases in student numbers required changes to teacher education, enormous investment in new schools and changes in pedagogy. Each succeeding generation has been different, and of necessity, education has changed to reflect the needs and aspirations of the new generation. Generation Y students are now in higher education, the first Generation Z students will soon be entering higher education. Both groups are showing signs of being different to their seniors. This difference implies changes to higher education learning. Compounding the need for Generation Y and Generation Z instigated changes to higher education has been the rapid onset of new forms of technologically infused learning, some generated by an industry desperate to maintain its influence on education as the market for paper-based books and journals declines, others generated by the ubiquitous nature of everyday life technological innovations such as social media, and more recently, the widespread availability of tuition fee-free MOOCS. This chapter will chart the generational and technological changes that are likely to increasingly demand changes to learning in schooling and higher education. Possible future change scenarios are also suggested.

Abstract:
Through an exploration of three vignettes, the authors share innovative ways young learners and their teachers are responding to children's literature using digital tools in the context of new literacies. In the first example, primary grade students use digital tools to gain agency in their literacy practices as part of project-based learning within a STEAM curriculum. In the second, struggling readers in an after-school program integrate traditional and out-of-school literacies to produce authentic literacy products outside the constraints of standards and established curricula. Finally, an example from a teacher education program shows how the next generation of teachers can become leaders in the use of new literacies through their own experiential learning. Despite the differences in context and content of each vignette, all three demonstrate strong use of literacies pedagogy to guide selection of digital tools for the creation and consumption of text.

Abstract:
Even if a school or district has done a good job providing thorough information on its website or has made efforts to connect online with incoming families, that work might be in vain if the school doesn’t feel inviting once the students and parents arrive. As parents have shared, that first reception that families receive when they walk into a school or district office can determine whether they view the new school community as welcoming or unwelcoming. Schools—as well as individual teachers—should have procedures in place for when someone new walks in the door. For example, previous work on schools serving military children showed that many Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) schools ask parents to wait a day after enrollment before their child starts class. This gives the teacher and the students in a class a chance to prepare for the new student. They get a desk, books, and other materials ready—thus allowing the new student to feel less as if he or she is a disruption. Clearly, DoDEA schools are accustomed to welcoming new students all the time, but it’s a practice that could be implemented in any school. This chapter focuses on how to make early face-to-face interactions with new students and parents a positive experience. Every new family in a school needs that person who can say, “If I don’t know the answer, I will find out who does.” The approaches described here not only create an initial welcoming atmosphere, but also provide families with links should they need more information. Many school districts have a central location where families can receive information on the district and learn about the enrollment process, school choice options, community resources, and additional services. Welcome centers tend to be more common in a school district that handles registration at the central office level, instead of in each local school, and especially if the district serves an immigrant population. In addition to providing information on registration, these centers often provide information on other community agencies and services that families might need, such as housing, food assistance, child care, and after-school programs.

Abstract:
We have been offering conceptual design courses to graduate level mechanical engineering students. The courses are taught at three different graduate schools; Kyushu Institute of Technology, Sophia University, and The University of Tokyo. The mechanisms of course offering are different among these three schools, however, the underlying theme is the same. That is to identify a problem that the students want to solve and work in groups to come up with creative solutions. The students first go through sessions to sharpen their sense of feeling inconveniences. We then emphasize the importance of p

Abstract:
In today’s world, it is critical to continually improve and develop new educational practices. Compared to developed and developing countries around the world, especially in science, mathematics, and engineering, the United States is falling behind. One of the most prominent reasons is the lack of interest in these subjects. In order to reverse this trend, it is important to develop new ways to creatively spark interest in engineering and natural sciences early on in a student’s educational career. The scope of this project was to develop a children’s book that introduced mechanical dissection

Abstract:
Product development has been approached by linear methods that apply to any design problem without concern of ambient variables. In this approach, we will find a new matrix method that can deliver a basic path in which the designer can begin his journey, but adaptable to accept ambient variables. Nikola Tesla in his book “The Strange Life of Nikola Tesla” (1914) told us: “Thus I have been led unconsciously to evolve what I consider a new method of materializing inventive concepts and ideas, which is radially opposite to the purely experimental and is in my opinion ever so much more expeditious
