Free Download Simona Chiodo, "Predicted Humans "
English | ISBN: 1032643110 | 2024 | 146 pages | EPUB, PDF | 468 KB + 6 MB
Predicting our future as individuals is central to the role of much emerging technology, from hiring algorithms that predict our professional success (or failure) to biomarkers that predict how long (or short) our healthy (or unhealthy) life will be. Yet, much in Western culture, from scripture to mythology to philosophy, suggests that knowing one's future may not be in the subject's best interests and might even lead to disaster. If predicting our future as individuals can be harmful as well as beneficial, why are we so willing to engage in so much prediction, from cradle to grave?

Free Download Predicates and Temporal Arguments By Theodore B. Fernald
2000 | 176 Pages | ISBN: 0195114353 | PDF | 9 MB
A distinction is made in formal semantics between "stage-level predicates," predicates that describe the general state of a noun, and "individual-level predicates," predicates that specify the specific properties of a noun. Fernald investigates various contexts in which this distinction is traditionally said to come into play. His aim is to show that the effects displayed are not uniform, and that the differences between the analyses proposed in the literature arise from the authors considering different subsets of data that they take to exemplyify the "core" meaning of the stage/individual distinction. Fernald presents alternatives and extensions that shed light on the limitations of previous theories, as well as making original observations about important aspects of the topic, including coercion, and perceptual reports vs. other phenomena.

Free Download Jean-Marie Boilevin, "Precursor Models for Teaching and Learning Science During Early Childhood "
English | ISBN: 3031081579 | 2022 | 271 pages | PDF | 4 MB
This edited volume provides an in-depth exploration of a theoretical framework supporting Early Childhood Science Education research and teaching best practices. Particularly by presenting the concept of the Precursor Model from an epistemological, psychological, and didactical point of view at Early Childhood Science Education. The book examines and discusses the nature of Precursor Models and their use for early science teaching and learning. It scrutinizes different aspects of the construction of such models applied in early childhood education settings and contexts. Several empirical studies are presented within diverse scientific domains, as well as in international educational contexts. By providing a vary of examples of precursor models it makes this book a great companion for teachers aiming to teach children to understand and reason about topics such as: floating and sinking; shadow formation; water state changes; air; clouds and rain; electricity; inheritance andselection; as well as variation within populations. Finally, this volume supports the development of science education from an early age by using the original framework of a precursor model to mediate teaching and learning science at school during early childhood.

Free Download Precipitation Partitioning by Vegetation: A Global Synthesis by John T. Van Stan
English | EPUB | 2020 | 295 Pages | ISBN : 3030297012 | 163.31 MB
This book presents research on precipitation partitioning processes in vegetated ecosystems, putting them into a global context. It describes the processes by which meteoric water comes into contact with the vegetation's canopy, typically the first surface contact of precipitation on land. It also discusses how precipitation partitioning by vegetation impacts the amount, patterning, and chemistry of water reaching the surface, as well as the amount and timing of evaporative return to the atmosphere. Although this process has been extensively studied, this is the first review of the global literature on the partitioning of precipitation by forests, shrubs, crops, grasslands and other less-studies plant types.

Free Download Rebecca Seungyoun Jeong, "Preaching to Korean Immigrants: A Psalmic-Theological Homiletic "
English | ISBN: 3031078845 | 2022 | 237 pages | PDF | 2 MB
In terms of practical-theology's critical reflection on marginalized people's wounds in a wider society, this book investigates the question, "How to proclaim the good news in response to first-generation Korean immigrants' contextual suffering in the United Sates?" To answer the question, the book starts with investigating Korean immigrant hearers' contextual predicaments in a new land to point out emerging practical-theological issues in relation to the practice of preaching. In this book, the primary subjects are first-generation Korean immigrants, especially those who have relatively low socio-economic status and struggle with the purpose of their lives as immigrants, particularly those whose material dreams have been shattered.
