Reflections On Education And Learning
$6.95
This book outlines a paradigm shift concerning education, schools, learning, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights. The book explores numerous themes ranging from: religion and science: to: issues of public policy and, in the process, puts forth a perspective which argues that much of what goes on with respect to education is inconsistent with a variety of principles inherent in both the amended Constitution as well as our intuitive ideas about basic human rights. Some of the topics explored in various chapters are: grading, homework, educational purpose, qualities of a teacher, and much more.

Cyber Deer: Hunter Education Software
$14.95
Not a video game but an interactive educational program, Cyber Deer allows a computer user to shoot an anatomically accurate whitetail from any user-selected height, distance or angle, using bow or firearm settings, and then analyze the shot's internal path through the deer. After "firing," the user's shot-path is highlighted and remains on the screen while the user zooms in and rotates the deer to see the entry and exit path up close. Then, the user can strip away layers, starting with the skin, to see how the shot-path affects the skeleton and internal organs of the deer. After stripping away the skin and skeleton, a user can then individually remove the stomach, diaphragm, liver, lungs and heart to study which organs were affected. Meanwhile, continue to rotate the image or zoom in or out for detailed analysis. Have you ever wondered how height and angle affects shot placement for a bowhunter? What about where to aim on those quartering-away shots? Where should you aim to hit the heart? All of these questions can be answered with Cyber Deer. Additionally, while the Cyber Deer program will allow you to take a shot from any angle you want to try, it will also tell you when a shot angle you chose is not advisable and less likely to be effective. Veteran hunters will benefit from Cyber Deer, and it will also be a fantastic tool for anyone teaching others about ethical hunting and effective shot placement, including parents teaching their children, mentors teaching new hunters, and hunter-education instructors. Cyber Deer can easily be shared with groups by using a PowerPoint projector.
