In this book, which is one of best selling self reflection guides, Kafele offers those seeking to improve the quality of instruction in their institutions hard won wisdom on such matters as guaranteeing a first rank culture and climate, confirming emergency preparedness, and much more.

If you're struggling to transform your practice, improve teacher satisfaction, and—most important of all—encourage students to be superior academically, the book will inspire you.

But the researchers, for the first time, went a step further to investigate what kind of websites made the teenagers frequenters. They found that, in both sexes, very frequent visits to social media with negative (负面的) contents were associated with greater mental depression and anxiety. “Our results suggest social media itself doesn't cause harm, but that frequent use may disrupt (使中断) activities that positively influence mental health such as sleeping and exercising, while increasing e ... ...
