View Rights PortalThis book focuses on current policy discourse in Higher Education, with special reference to Europe. It discusses globalisation, Lifelong Learning, the EU's Higher Education discourse, this discourse's regional ramifications and alternative practices in Higher Education from both the minority and majority worlds with their different learning traditions and epistemologies. It argues that these alternative practices could well provide the germs for the shape of a public good oriented Higher Education for the future. It theoretically expounds on important elements to consider when engaging Higher Education and communities, discussing the nature of the term 'community' itself. Special reference is accorded to the difference that lies at the core of these ever-changing communities. It then provides an analysis of an 'on the ground project' in University community engagement, before suggesting signposts for further action at the level of policy and provision. This book is relevant to United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 4, Quality education
Scenes from the life of a pharmaceutical technician in her everyday life in a shared flat and the pharmacy are the gimmicks (and cliffhangers) in this book on pharmaceutical technician training. These develop into their connections to everyday life in a pharmacy and to the pharmaceutical knowledge that is conveyed at pharmaceutical technician school classes. The work combines different media forms and learning types as “Connecticum”. Podcasts, videos, and worksheets that can be accessed via QR code, as well as references to literature and information sources, supplement the content and make learning more varied and interesting. This innovative workbook for pharmaceutical technician training – each school year is accompanied by its own volume - is the ideal partner for subject-oriented and interdisciplinary teaching. It is also suitable for practically-oriented, independent work and a review of the entire training content – with a guaranteed fun factor!
What is it like to live next door to a British Army base? England's military heartland provides an eye-opening account of the sprawling military presence on Salisbury Plain, drawing on a wide range of voices from both sides of the divide. Targeted for expansion under government plans to reorganise the UK's global defence estate, the Salisbury 'super garrison' offers a unique opportunity to explore the impact of the military footprint in a particular place. But this is no ordinary environment: as well as being the world-famous site of Stonehenge, the grasslands of Salisbury Plain are home to rare plants and wildlife. How does the army take responsibility for conserving this unique landscape as it trains young men and women to use lethal weapons? Are its claims that its presence is a positive for the environment anything more than propaganda? This book investigates these questions against the backdrop of a historic landscape inscribed with the legacy of perpetual war.
