Tidy Tim: Get to Know Me: OCD (Get To Know Me)

The ‘Get to Know Me’ series is aimed at children with additional needs and those who support them in the classroom. Developed by child psychologist Dr Louise Lightfoot and illustrated by Catherine Hicks, the resources in this series include activities specific to anxiety, depression and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). This book, Tidy Tim, has been designed to support the individual child but also to be used in whole class teaching, to encourage an empathetic and inclusive environment. In this book, we meet Tidy Tim, an octopus with many arms but not many friends. His swirly whirly feelings make him spend all day cleaning and tidying his house instead of going out and making friends. But one day, Tidy Tim gets himself into a terrible tangle and realises he needs the help of Jenni the Jellyfish, who helps him untangle his arms and his feelings. This book was written with children with OCD in mind, providing an opportunity to relate to Tim’s thoughts, feelings, behaviours and experiences. However, children with a range of needs may benefit from the story. The book is written in a narrative style, so it does not use diagnostic labels and is not intended for this purpose. Instead the focus is on creating a common language which children can understand and use to make sense of how they are feeling. A practitioner guidebook (ISBN 978-0-8153-4948-8) and draw along version (ISBN 978-0-8153-4951-8) are also available.

Tiepolo Blue: 'The smart, sexy read you need in 2022’ Evening Standard

'The best novel I have read for ages. My heart was constantly in my throat as I read... There is so much to enjoy, to contemplate, to wonder at, and to be lost in.' STEPHEN FRY'The smart, sexy read you need in 2022. Expect to see it on prize lists as well as Instagram feeds... Not only an addictive page-turner, Cahill's book taps into the tensions and suspicions between generations that feels incredibly relevant for our testy times.' EVENING STANDARDBen turns and grins ironically. 'When you stopped just now and looked at the sky, you weren't measuring it. You weren't thinking about classical proportion. You were feeling something.'Cambridge, 1994. Professor Don Lamb is a revered art historian at the height of his powers, consumed by the book he is writing about the skies of the Venetian master Tiepolo. However, his academic brilliance belies a deep inexperience of life and love. When an explosive piece of contemporary art is installed on the lawn of his college, it sets in motion Don's abrupt departure from Cambridge to take up a role at a south London museum. There he befriends Ben, a young artist who draws him into the anarchic 1990s British art scene and the nightlife of Soho. Over the course of one long, hot summer, Don glimpses a liberating new existence. But his epiphany is also a moment of self-reckoning, as his oldest friendship - and his own unexamined past - are revealed to him in a devastating new light. As Don's life unravels, he suffers a fall from grace that that shatters his world into pieces.'Tiepolo Blue really has blown me away... The last debut novel I read that had this much talent buzzing around inside it was Alan Hollinghurst's The Swimming-Pool Library.' ROBERT DOUGLAS-FAIRHURST

Tiergestützte Interventionen im Justizvollzug

In diesem Band werden erstmals auf wissenschaftlicher Basis die Möglichkeiten tiergestützter Interventionen im Strafvollzug ausgeleuchtet. Verschiedene Forschungsprojekte und Best-Practice-Beispiele aus Deutschland, Österreich, Frankreich, Italien, Luxemburg und der Schweiz geben Auskunft über Gelingensbedingungen und erfolgreiche Strategien wie auch Hindernisse und Grenzen tiergestützter Arbeit im Jugendarrest, in Justizvollzuganstalten oder in forensischen Kliniken. Die verschiedenen Beiträge zeigen eindrücklich, wie der Einbezug von Hunden, Pferden, Eseln oder Hühnern die Resozialisierung von jugendlichen wie erwachsenen Inhaftierten befördern kann.

Tiergestützte Pädagogik – Soziale Teilhabe – Inklusive Prozesse: Der Einsatz von Schulhunden aus wissenschaftlicher Perspektive

Lehrkräfte setzen Hunde im Unterricht ein, um die soziale Inklusion zu fördern. Doch welchen Einfluss hat tiergestützte Pädagogik auf die sozialen Strukturen in Schulklassen? Wie lassen sich diese Einflüsse erklären und welche Schlussfolgerungen können für die Förderung von sozialer Inklusion abgeleitet werden? Diese Fragen werden mit einer der ersten empirischen Erhebungen zu Auswirkungen tiergestützter Pädagogik auf die soziale Partizipation von Schüler*innen beantwortet. Der Einfluss von Schulhunden wird gezielt hinsichtlich des Wohlbefindens, der Arbeitsatmosphäre und sozialer Beziehungen zwischen den Lernenden, aber auch zwischen Klasse und Lehrkraft erhoben. Die Analyse der Ergebnisse zeigt: Mithilfe von tiergestützter Pädagogik werden soziale Strukturen positiv beeinflusst und Teilhabemöglichkeiten geschaffen. Vor dem Hintergrund pädagogischer und soziologischer Theorien werden die Ergebnisse interpretiert und erklärt. Leser*innen erhalten praktische Hinweise für die Förderung sozialer und emotionaler Entwicklung von Kindern und Jugendlichen sowie für die Vermittlung inklusiver Werte und die Beziehungsgestaltung.

The Ties that Bind: Negotiating Relationships in Early Jewish and Christian Texts, Contexts, and Reception History (The Library of New Testament Studies)

Friendship and other intimate (but not always amicable) relationships have received some attention in the greater field of research on early Judaism and Christianity, though not as much as deserved. This volume celebrates and builds upon the life-long work of Adele Reinhartz, covering the various permutations of relationships that can be found in the Gospel of John, the wider corpus of early Jewish and Christian literature, and cinematic re-imaginings thereof.While the issue of whether one can 'befriend' the Fourth Gospel in light of the book's legacy of antisemitism is central to many of the essays in this volume, others address other more or less likely friendships: Pilate, Paul, Lazarus, Judas, or Mary Magdalene. Likewise, the bonds between ancient texts and contemporary retellings of their stories feature prominently, with contributors asking what kinds of relationships filmmakers encourage their audiences to have with their subjects. This volume explores some of the rich variety of relationships in the ancient world, and unpacks the intricate and dynamic processes and interactions by which human relationships and societies are generated, maintained, and dissolved.

Tigri e teoremi: Scrivere teatro e scienza (I blu)

Il libro tratta di Scienza, per il Teatro, e insegna a scrivere testi teatrali scientifici. Si comincia a definire quel che s’intende per Scienza, e si cerca uno strumento forte come il Teatro per comunicarla. Questo viene fatto in specie per le cosiddette "scienze dure". Scienza e conoscenza, dice il drammaturgo e matematico Denis Guedj, possono fornire eccezionali spunti drammatici. Io ribalto la frase e insegno a scrivere "teatralmente" la Scienza. Vi sono esercizi, esempi, testi già rappresentati o addirittura pubblicati… il campo è vasto, nuovo, da esplorare.
