        Not Quite Out

        by Louise Willingham

        William Anson is done with relationships, thanks. He's starting the second year of his medicine degree single, focused, and ready to mingle with purely platonic intentions.   Meeting Daniel, a barely recovered drug addict ready to start living life on his own terms, might just change that. There are two problems.   One: William isn't out. What's the point in telling your friends you're bisexual when you aren't going to date anyone?   Two: Daniel's abusive ex-boyfriend still roams the university campus, searching for cracks in Daniel's recovery. No matter how quickly William falls for Daniel, their friendship is too important to risk ruining over a crush.   William is fine with being just friends for the rest of forever.   Well, not quite.

        Liguria in Cucina - The flavours of Liguria

        Ricette della tradizione Traditional recipes

        by Enrica Monzani

        “As happens all over the world, the nature of a place, its history, its culture and the character of those who live there are all revealed at the dining table. So how can we define the Ligurian kitchen? It is multifaceted, colourful and above all full of contrasts, because Liguria is itself like this: made of high mountains that fall steeply to the coast, of sea and woodland, different in the East and the West, of seafaring and peasant culture but also mercantile and cosmopolitan, shy and reserved, yet open to the world.” This book is an act of love for the flavours, terroir and history of Liguria; a culinary journey through a region where everything is used, and where past and present, simplicity and creativity all have influence in the kitchen. Enrica Monzani shares the tastes and aromas of home, the land that Ligurian sailors longed for while on their long voyages at sea.

        In volo sulla Toscana - Flying above Tuscany

        by Guido Cozzi

        "Beautiful things, seen from above, are even more beautiful." There are several publications that tell about Tuscany from the sky: from certain heights, this land appears even more spectacular. But only this book makes use of an unprecedented point of view: that of bird's eye view, high enough to detach from the earth's crust, too low to be at high altitude, moving in that sphere that belongs to the world of birds.Using any means he has ever raised from the ground - helicopter, hot air balloon, motor glider, paraglider, ultralight, biplane -, climbing towers and chimneys, using drones, telescopic columns, wireless controlled machines, self-built gimbals and a lot of work, Guido Cozzi has created a totally new iconography of Tuscany: from above, but not too much ...

      • Nushu. Writing that gave voice to women

        by Giulia Falcini

        Beyond the Great Wall, immersed among the Hunan Province hills, there is Puwei village.Here, the memory of the past is still alive, nourishing the lives of the present days. Puweifigures as an oasis of quietness and traditions. A long time ago, challenging to say exactly when, a group of women started a culture: a unique, precious, deep and rich of values custom.The huge gap between man and women, along with their immense wisdom, were the driving force to the creation of the Nushu, the only language in the world created and used exclusively by women. It is a code made of rhomboid characters, having a willowy and graceful shape.Men would not pay attention to it, and this codecould permit the girls to express their thoughts and their torments freely. Nushu settled in apatriarchal society as a way of communication among women incredibly intimate.They used to gather in a room where to needle, sing and talk. These moments were, for them, a sigh of relief from an oppressing routine.

        Out In Greenwood

        by James A. Lyons

        Out in Greenwood is a Taylor Swift song trapped in the body of a gay teenager. Fifteen-year-old Tim Johnson believed that coming out as gay would immediately lead to a whole new multi-coloured life, yet so far not much has changed. Yes, he may now have a boyfriend (sort of, but not quite), and be open about his sexuality (well, to four people), but he still faces the everyday teenage tribulations of an embarrassing family, insecurity, homophobic classmates, and low-paid jobs. As the Greenwood Secondary summer holidays started, Tim befriended fellow paper boy Johann, who had arrived from Sweden, and they grew to realise that they were more than just friends. As the relationship develops, a family emergency hits Johann, and he is sent to Newcastle leaving Tim with best friends Lydia and Leo, and irritating Instagram influencer, Callum. The annual marquee event, the Greenwood Secondary School Fete, is just six days away, and Tim must navigate his way carefully through social activities so he is not the centre of attention for once. When things seem to be on track, a mysterious graffiti artist starts to target him.

        Self-Regulated Learning in Technology Enhanced Learning Environments

        A European Perspective

        by Carneiro, R.

        Self-regulated learning (SRL) subsumes key aspects of the learning process, such as cognitive strategies, metacognition and motivation, in one coherent construct. Central to this construct are the autonomy and responsibility of students to take charge of their own learning. Skills for self-regulation can be encouraged both directly and indirectly through a range of learning activities. In this book we look specifically at the ways in which technology enhanced learning environments (TELEs) have been used to support self-regulation. The book provides an overview of recent studies on SRL in TELEs in Europe – a perspective which is new and has not been articulated hitherto. It addresses conceptual and methodological questions as well as practices in technology enhanced learning. While the focus is on European studies, we are aware that much of the groundwork in the field of SRL has emanated from the United States. The book is divided into three parts: (A) Foundations of SRL in TELEs, (B) Empirical studies on SRL in TELEs and (C) SRL in TELEs: perspectives on future developments. The book presents a rich resource of information for researchers and educators at all levels who are interested in supporting the acquisition of SRL through TELEs.
