Motivating students
 from all engineering disciplines, this text encourages students to
 become engineers and prepares them with a solid foundation in
 fundamental principles and physical laws. The book begins by
 introducing students to the exciting world of engineering as they
 discover what engineers do as well as the various areas of
 specialization. After explaining good study habits and what it takes
 to succeed, Moaveni then prepares them for success with an
 introduction to design and problem solving, communication, and
 ethics. Once this foundation is established, the book moves on to
 the basic physical concepts and laws students will encounter
 regularly as engineering students. The text emphasizes that
 engineers apply physical and chemical laws and principles as well as
 mathematics to design, test, and supervise the production of
 millions of parts, products, and services that people use everyday.
 By gaining problem solving skills and an understanding of
 fundamental principles, students are on their way to becoming
 analytical, detail-oriented, and creative engineers.

 PROGRAMMING CONTROLLOGIX PROGRAMMABLE AUTOMATION CONTROLLERS
 strength is its breadth and depth of coverage, taking the reader
 from an overview of the Programmable Logic Controllers through
 ladder logic, structured text, sequential function chart, and
 function block programming. Students learn more and more easily
 because of the practical coverage, numerous examples and extensive
 exercises.

 This fourth edition of Programmable Logic Controllers continues to
 provide an up-to-date introduction to all aspects of PLC
 programming, installation, and maintaining procedures. No previous
 knowledge of PLC systems or programming is assumed. As one reviewer
 of this edition put it "I honestly believe that someone with
 little or no background to PLC systems could take this book and
 teach themselves PLCs".

 Since the publication of the first edition of Learning by Doing, the
 authors have made presentations to tens of thousands of educators,
 served on dozens of panels to answer their questions, worked with
 several districts on a long-term ongoing basis to assist with their
 implementation of the professional learning community (PLC) concept,
 and participated in ongoing dialogue with educators on the
 allthingsplc.info website. This continuing work with teachers,
 principals, and central office staff from schools and districts
 throughout North America has given them a deeper understanding of
 the challenges educators face as they attempt to implement the
 professional learning community process in their organizations. This
 second edition attempts to draw upon that deeper understanding to
 provide educators with a more powerful tool for moving forward. Like
 the first edition, the second edition of Learning by Doing: A
 Handbook for Professional Learning Communities at Work helps
 educators close the knowing-doing gap as they transform their
 schools into professional learning communities (PLCs). This handbook
 is a guide for action that will: - Help educators develop a common
 vocabulary and consistent understanding of key PLC concepts. -
 Present a compelling argument that the implementation of PLC
 concepts will benefit students and educators alike. - Help educators
 assess the current reality in their own schools and districts. -
 Convince educators to take purposeful steps to develop their
 capacity to function as PLCs. The second edition of Learning by
 Doing addresses seven critical questions encountered when shifting
 from a traditional school to a PLC: 1. Why questions. Why should we
 do this? Can you present a rationale as to why we should engage in
 this work? Is there evidence that suggests the outcome of this work
 is desirable, feasible, and more effective than what we have
 traditionally done? 2. What questions. What are the exact meanings
 of key terms? What resources, tools, templates, materials, and
 examples can you provide to assist in our work? 3. How questions.
 How do we proceed? How do you propose we do this? Is there a
 preferred process? 4. When questions. When will we find time to do
 this? When do you expect us to complete the task? What is the
 timeline? 5. Guiding questions. Which questions are we attempting to
 answer? Which questions will help us stay focused on the right work?
 6. Quality questions. What criteria will be used to judge the
 quality of our work? What criteria can we use to assess our own
 work? 7. Assurance questions. What suggestions can you offer to
 increase the likelihood of our success? What cautions can you alert
 us to? Where do we turn when we struggle? The second edition of
 Learning by Doing is specifically designed to provide leaders with
 the information and resources that they need to answer these
 questions for each element of the essential work of PLCs.

How do you help your students demonstrate
 mathematical proficiency toward the learning expectations of the
 Common Core State Standards (CCSS)?
This teacher guide illustrates how to sustain
 successful implementation of the CCSS for mathematics for grades K
 2. Discover what students should learn and how they should learn it
 at each grade level, including insight into prekindergarten early
 childhood readiness expectations for the K 2 standards, as well as
 the unique Counting and Cardinality standards for kindergarten.
Comprehensive and research-affirmed analysis
 tools and strategies will help you and your collaborative team
 develop and assess student demonstrations of deep conceptual
 understanding and procedural fluency. You'll also learn how
 fundamental shifts in collaboration, instruction, curriculum,
 assessment, and intervention can increase college and career
 readiness in every one of your students.
Benefits
- Discover the five essential paradigm shifts
 necessary to implement the CCSS for mathematics.
- Receive guidance on forming and sustaining collaborative teams in a Professional Learning Community at Work culture.
- Develop a 'less is more' content mind-set: fewer standards will result in the opportunity of time needed for deeper rigor and conceptual understanding work with students.
- Gain helpful formative assessment strategies for development of student proficiency in the Standards for Mathematical Practice.
- Access dozens of tools, activities, examples, resources, and reproducibles to help teachers and teams analyze, interpret, and implement the common core standard expectations for instruction and assessment.
- Examine the research-affirmed foundation of mathematics content and process standards from 1989 to 2010 and deepen your understanding of the common core expectations.
