Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - When high school student Eric Williams awakens from a coma, he finds that not only was he in a car accident, but a demon has stolen his heart. He doesn't eat, he can't sleep, and all color is slowly fading from him and his world. Not to mention the gaping hole in his chest. Eric was always that much-needed laugh, that last bit of honesty, and unwavering support for his best friends Seth, Cam, and Robin. So, it's no surprise that they would do anything - like battling a Cyclops or outrunning a vicious monster and deadly hunter - to get their friend back to normal. Armed with their newfound spirit weapons, the group must journey to the mysterious White Tower and take back Eric's heart from the sinister Mr. Omit. However, for those who reach the White Tower, only one thing is certain: death. Heartless is a novel about friendship, the power of life, and the acceptance of loss.…

Paperback. Condition: New. The research in this volume draws on aspects of complexity theory and its integral link to systems performance to propose a new method for combatting the longstanding opportunity gap and related underperformance of so many underserved students in the American educational system.Through a longitudinal case study of the Lynch Leadership Academy at Boston College, this research considers the initial conditions and related disequilibrium principals experienced, the degree to which principals shared power and authority within their school context, and the extent to which they generated a shared school culture founded on collaboration and systematic reflection. From these data, the authors create a detailed picture of the Academy and its impact on the principals and their schools, using a new analytic tool called the "systems transformation heuristic," designed by the authors to quantify the qualitative dimensions of a school's efforts to enact adaptive change consistent with the complex adaptive system metaphor.As such, it offers a new foundation for conceptualizing ongoing systems change, as well as a fresh model for school personnel to consider their experience from concrete, intertwined, and unique points of view. It will appeal to scholars, researchers, and practitioners with interests in educational leadership, complexity theory, urban education, and social justice.…
