These profoundly courageous teachers and researchers will be an inspiration to others . . . . They work to offer opportunities for their students to grow as competent and complete individuals accepting responsibility for the society in which they live. - Cecily O'Neill </ul> Students are often asked to imagine themselves into the shoes of another person - an historical figure, a literary character, a contemporary political or social figure - then to consider life from that person's perspective. But what if they could really step into that person's life? Experience different conditions? Make decisions based on someone else's biases, knowledge, and intuition? With process drama they can, and Process Drama and Multiple Literacies will show you how. Process Drama and Multiple Literacies takes you inside nine classrooms where process drama successfully taps students' multiple literacies, integrates content from across the curricular areas, and develops students' social and critical awareness. These classrooms span a wide range of ages, and their stories will show you how this technique allows students to view the world from multiple perspectives by involving them in situations where they must make informed decisions. And far from simple classroom plays, process dramas are conceived and enacted by students in response to the issues and questions raised by content in the curriculum and by the world. Backed by research, filled with smart ideas for introducing process drama into your teaching, and illustrative of a variety of classrooms and process-drama projects, Process Drama and Multiple Literacies will help your students see the world through different eyes.

Youth, Critical Literacies, and Civic Engagement: Arts, Media, and Literacy in the Lives of Adolescents

Through stories of youth using their many voices in and out of school to explore and express their ideas about the world, this book brings to the forefront the reality of lived literacy experiences of adolescents in today’s culture in which literacy practices reflect important cultural messages about the interplay of local and global civic engagement. The focus is on three areas of youth civic engagement and cultural critique: homelessness, violence, and performing adolescence. The authors explore how youth appropriate the arts, media, and literacy as resources and how this enables them to express their identities and engage in social and cultural engagement and critique. The book describes how the youth in the various projects represented entered the public sphere; the claims they made; the ways readers might think about pedagogical engagements, practice, and goals as forms of civic engagement; and implications for critical and arts and media-based literacy pedagogies in schools that forward democratic citizenship in a time when we are losing sight of issues of equity and social justice in our communities and nations.

NATURAL &amp; ORGANIC SOAP MAKING ALCHEMY Hobby to a Successful Homebased Business After my teenage son’s acne disappeared by using a homemade organic soap that one of my friends had made, I got interested in the chemistry of soap making. I researched, watched, practiced and learned everything there is to know about soap making at home.
My goal initially was not only to learn how to make soap but the real chemistry of soap making, what makes soap a soap, why and what are natural and organic soaps and which aren’t. After about six months of hard practice and after many trial and error, I mastered the craft of soap making at home.

Natural Soap Making Cookbook 150 Unique Soap Making Recipes 
If you are reading this description, then I can safely assume that you either read my other book “Natural &amp; Organic Soap Making Alchemy,” or you are already a pro in the world of soap making craft. Either way, you already know the three most popular soap making methods. 
<ol>
<li>Cold Process Method 
</li>
<li>Melt and Pour Method</li>
<li>Hot Press Method 
</li>
</ol>
In this recipe book, I share many recipes for each of these methods. Even though you may prefer just one of these methods over the others but I can honestly say after five years of making all different kinds of soaps that each of these methods have their own unique soap creating techniques that the others don’t.
Did you know that there is a soap that can reduce cellulite? How about the soap that can cure acne and other skin blemishes? My son’s acne disappeared after using a soap that one of my friends made (that is how I got interested in soap making). There are many medicinal and other benefits of using homemade natural soaps.
I divided each of the soap making methods into 3 categories
<ul>
<li>Floral Scented Soaps</li>
<li>Unique Soaps</li>
<li>Medicated Soaps</li>
</ul>
In each category, I listed 10 of my best recipes, most of which are truly unique.
Additionally, I added three additional chapters with 10 recipes in each that are becoming very popular lately.
<ul>
<li>Glycerin Soaps</li>
<li>Liquid and Laundry Soaps</li>
<li>Goat Milk Soaps</li>
</ul>
But before you buy this book, I would prefer you take a glance at the table of content and look through all of my 150 recipes and see if any of them peak your interest.
Welcome to the world of soulful aroma and beautiful colors of freshly homemade soaps!
