HR Strategy: Business Focused Individually Centred addresses the two key themes of translating business strategy into a workable, measurable HR strategy while simultaneously tapping into the needs and motivational patterns of individual employees in order to unleash their maximum value. The ultimate aim of any HR strategy is to design the highest value organization.

Strategy may be a notoriously difficult topic to pin down but the author produces both a wide-angle view and specific examples of what a real HR strategy looks like in different organizational contexts. This is a book that covers the theory but swiftly moves on to the question of how anyone might actually start to develop a high value HR strategy. It shows the key ingredients and practical steps involved in implementation.

* Provides a total re-appraisal and critique of the theory and practice of HR strategy
* Incorporates references to companies such as British Airways, GE, Microsoft, Sears, Siebel, Toyota and Verizon
* Demonstrates how different organizations have to develop their own unique HR strategies.

Teaching and Learning in Preschool: Using Individually Appropriate Practices in Early Childhood Literacy Instruction presents an innovative preschool framework that integrates literacy activities into content area lessons while embedding instruction within adult-child social interactions and realistic, playful activities tailored to each child’s individual needs. Authors Elizabeth Claire Venn and Monica Dacy Jahn developed the preschool framework after recognizing the benefits of teaching children prereading and prewriting behaviors prior to kindergarten. Throughout the book, the authors emphasize the need for teachers to observe their students closely so that “the child is the only script” in determining appropriate instruction. Chapters 1–3 present the rationale behind the preschool framework, essential preschool components, and formal and informal assessments and curricular outcomes. The remaining chapters cover a variety of topics such as -children’s social and emotional development -oral language development and phonological awareness -early reading and writing -print concepts -instruction in content areas, including mathematics, science, and social studies; and -home-school connections. In the conclusion, the authors recommend some interventions for stakeholders to consider as ways to improve early childhood education. The book’s appendixes supplement the text with lesson plans, outcomes checklists, assessment forms, reproducible prompt cards, play and learning center suggestions, text and music resources, and parent materials. Teaching and Learning in Preschool will be a valuable resource for early childhood educators, administrators, paraprofessionals, preservice teachers, and others seeking to provide preschoolers with a challenging and literacy-rich curriculum that embraces children’s individual differences..

Vegetable gardens for rent by the square meter. Daredevil sledding in the shadow of the Matterhorn A plot of woods named "Amerika." A secret passage in a centuries-old barn. These are some of the images Mary Ann Miller uncovers in this fresh collection of travel writing. Fluent in German and armed with a brand new B.A. degree in International Studies and English Literature, Miller embarks on a quest to discover Switzerland and share her adventures through a weekly newspaper column. Once she arrives in the "Confederatio Helvetica" she faces indecipherable local dialects and Bern's inexplicable obsession with bears. Her camera lens zooms from the precision-stacked woodpiles lining mountain chalets to graffiti sprayed on train station walls. She juxtaposes visits to the hideouts and prison chambers of the ancestors of the Amish and Mennonites with descriptions of an annual festival dedicated to consuming 45 tons of onions. Drinking straight from the city fountains of Bern, Miller weaves a picture of Switzerland more vibrant than simple postcard snapshots..
