Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Known as the internship guy at Dallas Theological Seminary where he teaches, George Hillman talks daily with students about God's movement in their lives. The goal of Ministry Greenhouse is to help seminary and Bible college students, their supervisors, and the lay leaders who work with them create the best environment for leadership development through a beneficial internship. An internship is not busy work or cheap labor but is instead fundamental to the development of a leader. Hillman first makes a case for internships, arguing that the purpose of the seminary or Bible college is to train both theologians and practitioners. He explores the meaning of call, identifies the ingredients of a successful internship, discusses strategies for establishing goals for an internship, and offers guidance for reflecting on learning during an internship. Hillman also provides tools for identifying competencies and sample goals.

Ministry Greenhouse shows students, their supervisors, and the congregations and other organizations they serve how they can create just such an environment.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. At the heart of Creating Better Learning Environments is the premise that students of all ages learn differently. This book is a practical guide to help educators utilize the furniture to adapt to each student's learning style. Learn about the proven process that many schools around the world have implemented to impact student learning environments.The wording of the title was chosen after careful thought.-Creating is meant to be a verb, an action that is ongoing and is never meant to be in a completed state.-Better signifies improvement and not accepting the status quo. Striving for progress instead of perfection.- Learning is the magical moment when you can see the student comprehend. We wanted to pinpoint the AHA moments when the learning actually occurs and how to maximize those learning situations.- Environments takes the idea of learning beyond just the classroom. A large portion of this book is spent on classrooms, but we want to look at a school as a facility of learning opportunities in each square foot - inside and outside of the building.Throughout this book we provide examples of how other schools intentionally sought to improve their learning environments. By sharing best practices, roadblocks, and lessons learned to assist you on your journey. Not all schools have the opportunity to start a new facility from scratch or undergo major renovations, so the majority of this book will show you how to better utilize and enhance your current facility.This book begins and ends with the primary purpose of matching a student's environments with his or her dominant learning styles. However, the results of this approach lead to other important benefits such as community engagement, school reputation, and the recruiting and retaining of students and educators.Few people outside the school get glimpses of the education staff in action, but instead create their perceptions based on the physical environment they see when they visit the school during non-school hours. It is our intent that this book guide you through your process and help you overcome the most common obstacles. Some of these ideas require funding, but many of them only require effort. Thank you for being a leader and advocate to better educate the students in your community.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. If there's one thing teachers can agree on, it's that social and emotional learning is a hot topic in education. But beyond this, questions still remain. Many educators find themselves wondering, what exactly is SEL? How should it be taught? What does it look like in the classroom? And, is it our job as educators to teach students non-academic life skills? Based on author Dr. Amy Cranston's experiences with implementing SEL from a practical standpoint, this book defines SEL and digs into the real work of how to incorporate SEL in K-12 schools. It makes the connection between research and practical application and the real-life examples and testimonials of SEL in the classroom will help educators effectively implement SEL programming. Featured case studies demonstrate real-world applications of SEL in different types of K-12 learning environments. It addresses students' different interests and varied learning styles and features Mindful Moments that encourage understanding, learning, and reflection. By supporting the emotional needs of students, educators will not only address issues such as discipline problems and absenteeism, but will help their students to be more mindful and self-aware. By encouraging spaces where intrapersonal and interpersonal skills are celebrated and cultivated, educators will set the foundation for all students to succeed.…
