The Secret Life of a Fool: One Man's Raw Journey from Shame to Grace
by Andrew PalauHe spent his growing-up years living for himself -- recklessly rebelling against his evangelist father's faith, numb to God and to the letters his father wrote him, immersed in the dark side of life. Until one intense night in the Jamaican Blue Mountains that allowed him to see himself in the mirror of grace, changing everything. The Secret Life of a Fool is Andrew Palau's unforgettable journey of running from God -- and the crushing, freeing experience of coming back to Him. It is a story of getting high, burning up cars, being stranded in Europe, surviving a near-fatal plane crash, and utter despair overcome by simple grace and a father's love, expressed in excerpted letters throughout this book.

What are Early Decision, Early Action, and Single-Choice Early Action—and whether any is right for you. How to figure out the true costs of college, and what is the difference between "need-" and "merit-based" aid. What it means when colleges say they meet "100% of demonstrated financial aid" and what "loan-free" means. When and how to make campus visits—and what to do on each.

Selbstkonzept und Fachwissen im Politikunterricht: Eine empirische Untersuchung (Empirische Forschung in den gesellschaftswissenschaftlichen Fachdidaktiken)
by Natalie GrobshäuserDieses Buch leistet einen empirischen Beitrag zur Aufklärung der Bedeutung von Motivation im Politikunterricht und fokussiert auf das Selbstkonzept als motivationale Voraussetzung für politisches Lernen. An einer Stichprobe über 1324 Realschüler*innen der neunten Jahrgangsstufe untersucht Natalie Grobshäuser den Zusammenhang zwischen dem Selbstkonzept und dem Fachwissen im Politikunterricht. Dabei wird das Selbstkonzept als mehrdimensionales Konstrukt in vier Facetten aufgefächert und als Einflussfaktor auf das politische Fachwissen modelliert. Zur Messung des Fachwissens wird ein Kompetenztest eingesetzt und durch Raschskalierung ausgewertet. Die Ergebnisse zeigen bedeutsame Effekte der Selbstkonzept-Facetten: sowohl außerschulische als auch fachspezifische Einschätzungen der Schüler*innen über ihre Fähigkeiten in der Begegnung mit dem Politischen bedeuten ein Mehr an politischem Fachwissen.

Selbstoptimierung und Ambivalenz: Gesellschaftliche Appelle und ambivalente Rezeptionen (Lernweltforschung #31)
Der Band stellt theoretische Perspektiven auf das Thema Selbstoptimierung sowie empirische Beispiele für ambivalente Rezeptionen von Appellen der Selbstoptimierung vor. Gesellschaftliche Zwänge zum Selbstzwang manifestieren sich u.a. in Appellen des Lebenslangen Lernens und der Selbstdisziplinierung, wie sie Selftracking und Lifelogging darstellen. Dieses Perfektionsstreben kann Menschlichkeit untergraben, aber auch Handlungsformen wie das Dilettieren hervorbringen. In empirischen Analysen kann nachgewiesen werden, dass Menschen oft ambivalent auf diese Zwänge reagieren, also gleichzeitig Optimierung und Menschlichkeit oder Anpassung und Selbstbestimmung anstreben. Manchmal sogar gerät der eigene Verbesserungswahn zur „Zerbesserung“, also letztlich zur Zerstörung des Selbst.
Self-Assessment for Vascular and Endovascular Specialists
by Sachinder HansIncluding over 500 multiple choice questions covering a wide range of vascular disorders to test the skills of all vascular specialists. Suitable for postgraduate trainee vascular medicine internists, interventional radiologists, vascular surgeons, and endovascular therapists as they prepare for exams or ensure that they remain up to date. Divided into 21 subject specific-sections and meticulously written and researched, the questions and their accompanying rationales are enhanced by explanatory illustrations and supported by key references. Students and experienced clinicians will be prepared for both testing and teaching in all aspects of clinical practice. Advances in the treatment of vascular disease have played a significant role in rising life expectancy over the past 70 years, resulting in lower morbidity, mortality, and quicker recoveries. However, there remains an urgent challenge in controlling risk factors such as obesity, sedentary lifestyles, and tobacco abuse. As explosive growth in endovascular technology continues, it is more important than ever for vascular specialists to remain proficient and stay up to date.

Self-regulated Learning and Second Language Writing: Fostering strategic language learners (English Language Education #26)
by Lin Sophie TengThis monograph is to investigate practical applications and contributions of self-regulated learning (SRL) to second/foreign language (L2) writing from sociocognitive and sociocultural perspectives. It showcases a comprehensive and updated review of conceptual and methodological issues of SRL and the state-of-the-art research on its applications to L2 learning and teaching. This volume further elaborates the design and results of a large-scale project which conducts observational and intervention studies investigating SRL strategies in L2 writing. This book reveals that a cross-disciplinary understanding of SRL strategies plays a crucial role in advancing theoretical functions of SRL and in extending its applications to L2 education in general, and L2 writing in particular. This book makes significant contributions to developing and validating new conceptual frameworks and tools for evaluating multidimensional structures of SRL strategies and self-efficacy in L2 writing; elucidating the interplay of personal, behavioral, environmental and psychological factors with SRL strategies and writing performance; and presenting an effective self-regulation instructional model for nurturing L2 learners’ motivation and confidence to strategize, reflect and succeed in writing.Teng has established herself as one of the prominent scholars in the discussion of self-regulated learning strategies. Her contribution to the fields of L2 writing and strategic learning are undeniable. This monograph is an excellent showing of how her endeavors to bring established theories from educational psychology to applied writing research have progressed over a number of methodologically rigorous studies. It should be required reading for anyone with an interest in cultivating strategic writers not only in the Chinese context but worldwide. Nathan Thomas, UCL Institute of Education
