I’m not just recommending this book, I can’t wait to teach it and use it myself. Bravo, Luke Reynolds! Viva, Creativity!” —Jeffrey D. Wilhelm, Boise State University, author of “You Gotta Be The Book”, Second Edition “Every chapter in A Call to Creativity is a real gem!

Using humor as the common denominator, a multicultural cast of YA authors steps up to the mic to share stories touching on race. Listen in as ten YA authors — some familiar, some new — use their own brand of humor to share their stories about growing up between cultures. Henry Choi Lee discovers that pretending to be a tai chi master or a sought-after wiz at math wins him friends for a while — until it comically backfires. A biracial girl is amused when her dad clears seats for his family on a crowded subway in under a minute flat, simply by sitting quietly in between two uptight white women. Edited by acclaimed author and speaker Mitali Perkins, this collection of fiction and nonfiction uses a mix of styles as diverse as their authors, from laugh-out-loud funny to wry, ironic, or poingnant, in prose, poetry, and comic form.
How to survive the digital revolution without getting trampled: your guide to online mindfulness, digital self-empowerment, cybersecurity, creepy ads, trustworthy information, and more. Feeling overwhelmed by an avalanche of online content? Anxious about identity theft? Unsettled by the proliferation of fake news? Welcome to the digital revolution. Wait—wasn't the digital revolution supposed to make our lives better? It was going to be fun and put the world at our fingertips. What happened? Keep Calm and Log On is a survival handbook that will help you achieve online mindfulness and overcome online helplessness—the feeling that tech is out of your control—with tips for handling cybersecurity, creepy ads, untrustworthy information, and much more. Taking a cue from the famous World War II morale-boosting slogan (“Keep Calm and Carry On”), Gus Andrews shows us how to adapt the techniques our ancestors used to survive hard times, so we can live our best lives online. She explains why media and technology stress us out, and offers empowering tools for coping. Mindfulness practices can help us stay calm and conserve our attention purposefully. Andrews shares the secret of understanding our own opinions'' “family trees” in order to identify misleading “fake news.” She provides tools for unplugging occasionally, overcoming feelings that we are “bad at technology,” and taking charge of our security and privacy. Andrews explains how social media algorithms keep us from information we need and why “creepy ads” seem to follow us online. Most importantly, she urges us to work to rebuild the trust in our communities that the internet has broken.
"Starts with a bang and never slows down--a very superior high-stakes thriller." --#1 New York Times bestselling author Lee Child When a bombing at 10 Downing Street wounds the Prime Minister and tests Great Britain's resolve, American ex-cop Adam Tatum must confront a conspiracy in the highest halls of power Former Michigan detective Adam Tatum receives an unexpected offer, a golden opportunity that seems almost too good to be true. He travels to 10 Downing Street to participate in a high-stakes conference. Immediately after his visit, a bomb detonates, wounding the prime minister and placing Adam Tatum squarely in the crosshairs of suspicion. Sensing a setup, Tatum flees with his family, desperately fighting for survival in an unfamiliar country. The lives of his children, the future of his marriage, and the fate of a nation depend on Tatum exposing the conspirators who pegged him for a fall. Georgia Turnbull, the chancellor of the exchequer, and Davina Steel, the lead investigator, both stand to gain from the successful manhunt of Adam Tatum. But, as motives emerge and desires ignite, each must decide what they're really after. Layered plots, crackling dialogue, and propulsive action mark Keep Calm, the riveting debut thriller from award-winning actor, director, and screenwriter Mike Binder.

When you start on the right foot and know what to expect, research writing would still be painful but a whole lot less painful.

It is not uncommon to hear of PhD and Master's students giving up halfway… but this fate does not need to befall you. This book provides the necessary cognitive toolkits to help you chart your research destiny and to help you strategise and overcome many of the challenges that graduate scholars experience in their research journey. You may be able to save hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars along the way. What people are saying about the book “Every page of Dr. Yoong’s book brought back memories of my Ph.D. program in the early 1970 at a Midwestern U.S. university. More specifically, it brought back memories of fellow students who did not complete the program. Reading this book before or during their studies would have helped many of them be successful. I hope to ensure that students entering our Ph.D. program read this publication. It would be even more beneficial if they read it before making a decision to pursue a doctorate.” Professor Dr. Douglas A. Boyd Emeritus Professor of Communication University of Kentucky Lexington, KY, U.S.A. “In 3 Years for a PhD? Professor Yoong provides a highly accessible reflection and practical guide through the journey of a PhD. Drawing from personal experience undertaking his PhD in Australia and as a supervisor, the book takes us through the personal and intellectual attributes required and developed in undertaking a PhD, as well as the people encountered at various stages on the way to completing a successful thesis and embarking on a research career. I really enjoyed the book, it is written in an accessible style with many of the points often not addressed in this kind of book.” Professor Dr. Richard Fitzgerald Research Committee Chair Department of Communication University of Macau, China “I wish I could have read this book during my doctoral study! Dr Yoong’s personal and professional expertise and insights into his research and supervision experiences are fruitful and relevant to those who plan to undertake their research endeavours. Despite the ups and downs of your research journey, this book is definitely your great companion to guide you until the end of the tunnel.” Assoc. Prof. Dr. Singhanat Kenny Nomnian Deputy Director for Communication and Academic Services Research Institute for Languages and Cultures of Asia Mahidol University, Thailand “This is a book for any graduate student who is in a stare-down contest with their MA thesis or PhD dissertation. David Yoong has been there, and he did more than live to tell the tale: He has also gone on to coach many others to completion. If you are looking for a companion and guide to walk you through the rough patches, then pick up this heartfelt and insightful manual. It is written for you.” Assoc. Prof. Dr. Jamin Pelkey Department of Languages, Literatures and Cultures Ryerson University, Canada "This is one little book every graduate student should read before embarking on a new journey of writing a thesis. It will save them a lot of time and tears." Professor Dr. Kenichi Namai School of International Liberal Studies Waseda University, Japan
Brand Vandals by Steve Earl,Stephen Waddington Pdf
Thanks to the rise of social media, what audiences think and say about organisations has never been more critical. Steve Earl and Stephen Waddington's Brand Anarchy examined the impact of media change and the new reputation landscape brought about by disaffected shareholders, customers and staff voicing their opinions to a global Internet audience. The authors continue the story here with the brand vandals going one step further; mobilising themselves, and the Internet, to wage war on organisations and willfully cause lasting reputational damage. For the organization, engagement isn't an option – it's a necessity. Brand vandals are forcing a level of dialogue that organisations, public and private, have never had to contemplate before. Smart organisations are helping to define the future of modern brand communication by retooling their public relations and communications teams to truly get to grips with the challenge of engaging audiences in a 24/7 conversation that not only answers criticism, but positively rebuilds corporate reputation. Is your organisation ready for the brand vandals?
