Book excerpt: A heartwarming story about inclusion, acceptance, kindness, and finding your place in the world. In Markertown it's 3:00 on Friday and all of the markers are getting ready to go home to their boxes after a long day of coloring when one little glitter marker finds herself in trouble. She can't find her cap and while dealing with hardship, she also faces rejection from her peers. As she journeys through Markertown she meets a group of motley markers that not only save the day but accepts her, lost cap and all.Markertown is a story that commends kindness and friendship. It touches on the theme that we are not defined by our appearance or how others perceive us. We are the sum of the words and actions we put out into the world. Readers should walk away understanding that true sparkle and shine come from within and all that glitters is not gold. So let the mark you leave on the world be one of kindness!

Book excerpt: The Phenomenon of Studio Goldsmithing When the history of art in the 1980s is written, much of it will be etched in gold. This is the time of the contemporary goldsmith, an artist who chooses to work in precious metals rather than oils or marble. The contemporary jeweler-as-artist has only recently become a re cognized force. With rare exceptions, the whole field is little more than thirty years old. But it is only within the past fifteen years that these jewelers have entered the jewelry mainstream. The phenomenon of contemporary goldsmithing embraces an eclectic group of artists, each with a unique vision, each taking a per sonal path to jewelry producing. They have as little relationship to the typical, mass-produced jewelry as a champagne maker has to a bottler of orange soda. They approach a piece of art, not a piece of metal. The work is personal and a perfect expression of the "back to the land" movement that spawned it. Many of these goldsmiths were looking not merely for a way to make a living but for a way to make a life that was worthy of living. Running a business while trying to remain a creative metalsmith at the same time is the ongoing challenge. The jeweler-artists have solved or resolved these often conflicting needs in slightly different ways and in a beautiful variety of techniques and styles. Their meth ods, their growth, and their work are discussed here.

Book excerpt: If you' ve ever wished for advice you can trust on how to make science and math more relevant to your middle or high school students, Creating Engineering Design Challenges is the book for you. At its core are 13 units grounded in challenge-based learning and the engineering design process. You can be sure the units are classroom-ready because they were contributed by teachers who developed, used, and revised them during the Cincinnati Engineering Enhanced Math and Science (CEEMS) program, a project funded by the National Science Foundation. Detailed and practical, the book is divided into three sections: 1.The rationale for making engineering an effective part of math and science instruction. 2.Thirteen engineering-related units, including the teacher-contributors' detailed accounts, lesson plans, and handouts. Content areas include biology, chemistry, physical science, Earth science, and environmental science. Topics range from developing a recipe for cement to implementing geocaching to calculating accurate aim with slingshots and water balloons. 3.Guidance on how to develop, support, and grow your engineering practice. This section offers useful templates and frameworks for you as well as professional development guidance for your school. The contributors' goal is to help you benefit from their hard-won experience. They write, " During our time with the CEEMS project, we learned a great deal from our mistakes and our successes, and we felt it would be important to share what we learned with the hope that you can build on your own success." Working from their advice, you can develop a more student-centered classroom culture and nurture learners who are engaged in real-life engineering challenges.
