CHRISTIANSEN - Böcker

This is a collection of essays by leading neuropsychologists and cognitive neuroscientists to honor Alexander Romanovich Luria and to highlight the enduring impact of his legacy on cognitive neuroscience and clinical neuropsychology. A wide range of topics is covered, from functional neuroimaging in neuropsychology to bedside evaluation techniques. Several generations of neuropsychologists and cognitive neuroscientists are among contributors, including those who closely worked with Luria, their own students, and others influenced in their work by Luria's pioneering insight.

This book's goal is to expose educators to a wide array of online digital teaching tools and to increase awareness of how these tools are currently being used. Teaching and the Internet shares ways in which new technologies, such as collaborative web apps, podcasting, online videos, and social networking sites, are currently being used in the university classroom. The book asks and answers questions like, "How are such technologies impacting our students and theglobal community?" And, "What will the future of chemistry education look like; as such tools become increasingly common?"The book is organized into four sections. Section 1 provides a broad and succinct introduction to social media, smartphone apps, and online review sessions. Section 2 covers internet videos and other methods in flipped and blended classrooms. Section 3 features highly-innovative means of enhancing students' research experience in laboratory courses through two fascinating modern tools: the online Guiding Education through Novel Investigation (GENI) platform and the use of unmanned aerialvehicles, or drones, in teaching an analytical environmental chemistry lab. Lastly, Section 4 covers timeless teaching principles.
