Customer Review: Excellent Balance between Theory and Practice (5 Stars)
I'm using this book to teach an introduction to computer programming using Visual Basic. (I also have 20 years practical experience in information systems.) I selected this book over several others because of its clear presentation of topics balanced with excellent suggestions for writing good program code. For example: * always use OPTION EXPLICIT* specify BYREF or BYVAL when passing variables The textbook is chuck full of practical programming advise which applies not only to Visual Basic, but other programming languages as well (example - see the section on data validation). At the end of each chapter the authors do ...

Customer Review: Best Book I've Seen on the Subject (5 Stars)
I am currently a third-grade teacher, and I have taught many levels of students, from kindergarten to high school. I read this whole book in two days, and it is the best book I have seen on the subject, as a resource for teachers (and for parents).The book is divided into three major parts: Creating a Positive Classroom, Helping Victims, and helping Bullies. Each section of the book was equally good. Every section is filled with very specific ideas which would work in almost any school situation, of any level. 95% of the ideas and ...

Customer Review: Pay the pocket change and buy this book! (5 Stars)
I have recently been studying a lot of academic research related to this book's central theme (i.e., that people tend use one of a handful of relatively standard ways to think, learn, process information, etc). This book is probably the easiest to understand and the most practical of all the books on the subject. Big name academics like Jerome Bruner and other people involved in educational theory back up this book's claims and provide a better academic foundation for those who want to know. In the educational world, it is commonly taught that children fall into four ...
