Before he was twenty, he had, in 1831, become second master of Helton Grammar School under Derwent Coleridge, the son of the great poet-metaphysician and himself a linguist of unusual gifts. He soon succeed Coleridge as head-master there from June 1843 to December 1847. Johns began his forty years of authorship in 1833 with a modest volume of Chronological Rhymes on English History, which went into several editions; and was followed by what we may well suppose to have been the more congenial Flora Sacra, published in 1840. In 1841 he graduated as Bachelor of Arts at Trinity College, Dublin, and, in the same year, was ordained deacon, not, however, becoming a priest until 1848. Meanwhile, in 1847, he began the publication of his popular Botanical Rambles, in four parts according to the seasons, which was not completed until 1852; and about the same time he made his most important botanical discovery, viz. the wealth of rarities on the promontory of the Lizard. In his Notes on British Plants, contributed to Hooker's London Journal of Botany in 1847. Illustrated with sixty four full page watercolour studies. This edition contains an appendix including the Pipe-Wort tribe and the Sedge Tribe and the Grass Tribe. Ref SS 5.…

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Hardcover, xxi + 253 pages, NOT ex-library. Book seems unread, interior is crisp, clean and bright throughout with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Minor external handling wear. Issued without a dust jacket. -- This work provides a research-based guide for educators on how to effectively engage students from challenging backgrounds, including those with learning disabilities, low socioeconomic status, or from minority groups. The authors argue that traditional "one-size-fits-all" teaching methods often fail these students. Instead, they present a framework centered on creating empowering learning opportunities that foster student agency, motivation, and self-regulation. The book offers practical, evidence-based strategies for classroom instruction and assessment, designed to build on students' strengths and promote deep, meaningful engagement. It serves as a key resource for teachers, educational psychologists, and school administrators seeking to create more inclusive and effective learning environments. -- "This book examines promoting engagement for children and adolescents from challenging contexts or who are dealing with challenging conditions. The volume concentrates on three vulnerable groups: marginalized youths who have experienced repeated exclusion and sought their second chance in alternative education; children who are coming from economically, culturally, and linguistically disadvantaged backgrounds; and students with social or emotional issues. It defines engagement as evolving over the course of learning, an interpersonal as well as personal process involving students, learning environment, teachers, and peers. Chapters identify the complex personal, sociocultural, economic, and systemic barriers that keep these vulnerable students from fully engaging in school, and explore the enabling role of collaborative and supported learning activities in building academic success and a foundation for productive adult lives. In addition, chapters present instructional practices based on engagement enablers. Chapters also pinpoint specific learning skills and subject areas that can provide openings for promoting motivation and participation. Featured topics include: - the importance of cognitive and social enablers for promoting learning engagement; - engagement in instruction from teachers and testing within classrooms; - student voice and perspective as a reading engagement enabler; - promoting academic engagement and aspiration for challenging and advanced mathematics; - alternative educational programs for re-engaging marginalized youths who 'don't fit'. Empowering Engagement is a must-have resource for researchers, scientist-practitioners, clinicians, and graduate students in the fields of child and school psychology, educational policy and politics, social work, motivation and learning, schooling and pedagogies, and related disciplines.".…
