Description xix, 251pBlack spine
Summary/Abstract Their dreams were not too different from ours. Each one achieved success school principal, poet, police constable, chartered accountant and social entrepreneur. But the road was long, the hurdles seemingly unpassable. The real-life narratives of the twenty-five young writers in this book reveal the bridges they built between the slum communities they were born in and the world outside. These are stories we walk past, faces we don’t stop to notice. These voices show a maturity beyond their years, reminding us that honesty, courage, success and compassion are in each one of us if we are given the right opportunities to develop them.

Listen to the wind: the story of Dr. Greg and Three Cups of Tea / Mortenson, Greg; Roth, Susan 2009  Book
Mortenson, Greg Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication USA, Dial Books for Young Readers, 2009.
Description 30pMulti-colour Spine
Summary/Abstract Holding true to the original title for adults, Three Cups of Tea, this moving story will amaze and inspire young readers. After getting lost while climbing the world's second tallest mountain, the K2 in the Baltistan region of Pakistan, Mortenson, a nurse, stumbled into a small village and learned of the dire circumstances in which local people lived. While recovering, Dr. Greg met the children of Korphe, who were eager to learn but were forced to write their lessons with sticks on the ground. Wanting to do something special for the village, he was encouraged by wise man Haji Ali to "listen to the wind." Dr. Greg listened, heard the eager voices of students at their lessons, and promised to return to build a school. The remarkable account of this quest, which involved constructing a bridge and manually carrying supplies to the building site, is magnificently enhanced by Roth's colorful collages.

Teaching digital natives: Partnering for real learning / Prensky, Marc 2010  Book
Prensky, Marc Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication New Delhi, Sage India, 2010.
Description xx, 203pGrey spine
Summary/Abstract Marc Prensky, who first coined the terms "digital natives" and digital immigrants," presents an intuitive and field-tested partnership model that promotes 21st-century student learning through technology. Teaching Digital Natives presents teachers with an intuitive yet highly innovative and research-based partnership model designed to promote student learning through the use of technology. Emphasizing more on how students learn relevant skills as they use technology to get things done and less on the mastery of technology for technologys sake, Marc Prensky calls for a division of labor and cooperation between students, teachers, and administrators so that each group can take on the roles for which they are best suited. Each chapter focuses on how to empower students to learn a cluster of 21st century skills while providing a variety of content-area and grade-level examples. The book illustrates: How digitally literate students can specialize in content finding, analysis, and presentation via multiple media; How teachers can specialize in providing questions, context, quality, rigor, and individualized attention to students; How administrators can support, organize and facilitate the process schoolwide; How technology can become a tool that students can use for learning essential skills.
