From the Back Cover\nHow do people use communication technology today? They use it to help them communicate faster, farther, and more often than ever before. They use it to exchange information, not only with other people but also with machines and with animals. At work, people are using communication technology to become more creative and more productive. In school, they're using it to learn new things and explore their own interests and abilities. At home, people are using communication technology to stay informed, to be entertained, and to keep in touch with family and friends.

For all introductory genetics courses Engage students with real-world applications of genetics Informed by more than 50 years’ experience and experimentation in teaching genetics, authors Mark Sanders and John Bowman share their excitement about genetics and the dynamism at work in the field with Genetic Analysis: An Integrated Approach . The authors use an integrated approach to help contextualize three core challenges of learning genetics: solving problems, understanding the connection between traditional genetics models and more modern approaches, and understanding evolution. With the 3rd Edition, the authors provide students with additional problem solving guidance and a new emphasis on real-world applications of genetics. They also strive to make learning the details of genetics easier and offer ways to facilitate group work and discussion of genetics problems and concepts. The revision incorporates key updates that keep pace with changes in the field, such as advances in CRISPR-Cas, more discussion of epigenetics and expanded coverage of genomic approaches.

Written by Peter Mirabito from University of Kentucky, the Study Guide/Solutions Manual is divided into five sections: Genetics Problem-Solving Toolkit, Types of Genetics Problems, Solutions to End-of-Chapter Problems, and Test Yourself. In the "toolkit," students are reminded of key terms and concepts and key relationships that are needed to solve the types of problems in a chapter. This is followed by a breakdown of the types of problems students will encounter in the end of chapter problems for a particular chapter: they learn the key strategies to solve each type, variations on a problem type that they may encounter, and a worked example modeled after the Genetic Analysis feature of the main textbook. The solutions also reflect the Evaluate, Deduce, and Solve strategy of the Genetic Analysis feature. As not all end-of-chapter problems will require all three steps, the solution is broken down to reflect only the solution strategies required to find the answer. This approach helps students assess the level of problems and the solution strategies that they struggle with the most. Finally, for more practice, 10 Test Yourself problems and accompanying solutions are included.

"Why are you learning Zulu?" When Mark Sanders began studying the language, he was often asked this question. In Learning Zulu, Sanders places his own endeavors within a wider context to uncover how, in the past 150 years of South African history, Zulu became a battleground for issues of property, possession, and deprivation. Sanders combines elements of analysis and memoir to explore a complex cultural history.
Perceiving that colonial learners of Zulu saw themselves as repairing harm done to Africans by Europeans, Sanders reveals deeper motives at work in the development of Zulu-language learning―from the emergence of the pidgin Fanagalo among missionaries and traders in the nineteenth century to widespread efforts, in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, to teach a correct form of Zulu. Sanders looks at the white appropriation of Zulu language, music, and dance in South African culture, and at the association of Zulu with a martial masculinity. In exploring how Zulu has come to represent what is most properly and powerfully African, Sanders examines differences in English- and Zulu-language press coverage of an important trial, as well as the role of linguistic purism in xenophobic violence in South Africa.
Through one person's efforts to learn the Zulu language, Learning Zulu explores how a language's history and politics influence all individuals in a multilingual society.

Reference Assessment and Evaluation

Learn effective ways to assess and evaluate reference services in YOUR library Innovation and the constant evolution of technology continually spur academic librarians to find superior ways to deliver high quality reference service to students, faculty, and researchers. Reference Assessment and Evaluation offers librarians and administrators a plethora of fresh ideas and methods to effectively assess and evaluate reference service in any academic library. Leading experts share their own best practices in delivering digital reference, training staff and student workers, and providing instruction through case studies from academic libraries of all sizes. Because of fiscal pressures, the need to attract the best and brightest students and faculty to the academy, and increased competition from Internet search engines, the evaluation and assessment of reference service remains one of the most important challenges for academic libraries. Reference Assessment and Evaluation provides practical tips and clear examples on assessing and evaluating several diverse aspects of reference services. This book discusses in detail case studies from various colleges and universities on wide-ranging issues such as virtual reference evaluation, merging reference desks, peer evaluations, library instruction, and staff development. Academic libraries of all types will find opportunities to modify these innovative ideas to remain at the forefront of reference service. Topics in Reference Assessment and Evaluation include: 
<ul>
<li> a case study of the library at the University of Colorado at Boulder’s efforts to implement a drop-in research consultation program for students enrolled in the introductory writing course 
</li>
<li> coordination of an annual professional development program for specialized instruction targeted at faculty and staff members at Colorado State University 
</li>
<li> peer observation between the reference staff members of Augustana College Library and St. Ambrose University Library 
</li>
<li> the merging of San Jose State University’s government publication desk with the reference services deskalong with the public library’s reference desk 
</li>
<li> Valparaiso University’s main library’s training and use of student assistants 
</li>
<li> analyzing user and librarian satisfaction within virtual reference transactions 
</li>
<li> evaluation of the University of South Alabama’s Baugh Biomedical Library’s chat reference service 
</li>
<li> evaluation of the University of Texas at Arlington’s virtual reference service 
</li>
<li> library technology’s impact on reference desk statistics 
</li>
<li> statistical analysis of reference desk data for staffing needs at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga 
</li>
</ul>Reference Assessment and Evaluation is timely, important reading for academic references librarians and supervisors.
