Long Description:
Culturas hispanas a través de la pantalla busca fomentar el visionado crítico de productos audiovisuales contemporáneos y el reflexionar sobre la representación de las culturas hispanas en webseries y vídeos musicales. La difusión y la popularidad de estos dos géneros justifican que se les dedique espacio en el currículo junto a otros géneros audiovisuales más consagrados, caso de los cortos y los largometrajes. El libro se ofrece en inglés y en español para que pueda ser utilizado en una amplia variedad de disciplinas académicas. Asimismo, el libro está organizado en unidades didácticas independientes, las cuales presentan diferentes estructuras y temáticas de forma que el profesor/a pueda seleccionar aquellas que mejor se ajusten a los objetivos concretos de su curso. Hispanic Cultures Through the Screen aims to promote critical viewing of contemporary audiovisual products and thinking about the representation of Hispanic cultures in web series and music videos. Increasing popularity of these two genres justify dedicating part of the curriculum to them along with other more established audiovisual genres, such as short and feature films. The book is presented in English and Spanish so that it can be used in a wide variety of courses. Finally, it is organized into separate units (each based on a different audiovisual product) with different themes, structures and length, so that teachers can select those units that interest them the most for a specific course.

The Culture of Science
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

Short Description:
This casebook opens up modes of inquiry into Western knowledge foundations, asking students to embrace epistemological uncertainty as a productive means of developing critical thinking skills.

Long Description:
The casebook offers five reading units organized thematically around significant questions at issue. Reading Unit 1 grounds students in contemporary questions of science and its boundaries, offering a blend of dense and approachable readings intended to spark class conversations on the topic of scientific culture. Units 2 and 3 extend discourses on scientific culture into areas of critical analysis such as gender, race and ethnicity, religion, ethics, and colonialism, as well as examining issues of language and perception. Unit 4 focuses on basic questions of fact, definition, and interpretation by exploring the discourse surrounding anomalies, pseudoscience, and skepticism, making it particularly useful for reviewing and extending students’ understanding of skills learned in Writing 121. Finally, Unit 5 offers a case study on Frankenstein as a techno-moral lesson on overreaching ambition and how it applies to scientific culture today. While the Table of Contents is organized thematically, many readings have cross-unit (and cross-disciplinary) connections and relevance. We encourage instructors to make use of the Alternative Table of Contents and to feel welcome to assign the entire casebook in your courses and/or to use individual readings or units as launching points for individual and team research projects. Supplementary teaching resources can be found in the casebook bibliography.

Curious George Saves His Pennies

Rating
0.0 stars

In the story Curious George Saves His Pennies, George wants to buy a new bright-red train, but he does not have enough money. At the suggestion of his friend, George saves his money to buy the train. In this lesson, the students draw an outline of a piggy bank, within which they write a word for or draw a picture of something they would like to buy. This becomes their savings goal. They listen to the story, and as George finds some ways to earn money, the students come up with ways they can earn money to reach their savings goals. Students are introduced to the difference between income and gift money. They participate in an activity where they determine if they are receiving income or gift money and how many weeks it will take them to reach their savings goal. Students also discuss why George did not buy the original red train he wanted.

Cyborgs and Centaurs: Academic Writing in the Age of Generative Artificial Intelligence
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

Cyborgs and Centaurs provides a guided approach to the academic research and writing process for first-year composition students. The book incorporates generative artificial intelligence prompts and exercises to strengthen learning, explore ethical concerns, and develop a personal writing process.

This book will provide you with the resources you need to be successful in English 102: Writing and Rhetoric II. It remixes material from Write What Matters, a modular textbook that I co-created with Joel Gladd and Amy Minervini as part of the 2020-2021 OPAL Fellowship for the Idaho State Board of Education. The text’s title is meant to provoke some thoughts about why and how we write. What will academic writing look like in the age of generative AI? Though we will undoubtedly see some changes to the writing process, research supports the development of durable skills that courses like this one promote.

More important, with the rapid advancement of generative artificial intelligence, our writing processes are changing in fundamental ways that we will explore throughout the course. LLMs can be incredibly helpful, and they were designed to be that way. They were not designed to be truthful though. Critical thinking skills are more important than ever in the age of generative AI.

DEALING WITH NARCISSISM
Only Sharing Permitted
CC BY-NC-ND
Rating
0.0 stars

I think this topic is critically important and quite relevant because nowadays students are very cut off from the possibility of communicating with each other as a result of various types of trauma that gives rise to narcissistic attitudes. As a result, even the minimal possibility of the art of communication has been lost, and various trends have spread in the society, which were caused by snobbish and hence narcissistic attitudes. That's why I decided to choose this topic to highlight the dangers of narcissism.

0.0 stars

In Math, students will draw a t-chart to represent dam and flood data obtained from their reading resource. Students will select the information they wish to use from the reading resource (their opinions). Students will then use rulers marked with halves and fourths of an inch to measure lengths and construct a scale model of their own dam, which they can later construct in Science. Students will represent data in a graph and use measurement data by measuring lengths using rulers marked with halves and fourths of an inch. Students will test their scale dams and make changes as needed. This unit was created as part of the ALEX Interdisciplinary Resource Development Summit.

Persuasive Writing at Oregon State University

Short Description:
Arguments are all around us. Everywhere we look, someone is trying to get our attention, change our minds, or sell us something. Learning about how persuasion works will make you a more thoughtful and skeptical consumer of all that content, so that you can come to your own conclusions and recognize the underlying assumptions that inform those attempts to persuade you. This book is about analyzing others' arguments and crafting your own. The rhetorical choices that you make as a writer–from evidence to structure to tone–impact how your audience will receive your ideas. Using those tools effectively will help your voice be heard.
