English Language Learners are increasingly underidentified for gifted programs, although many of them possess high academic abilities and have a high motivation to learn and succeed in school. This population is poorly represented in many gifted programs due to a myriad of reasons, including lower test scores on English-based tests, language barriers, and cultural differences. Educators must learn to recognize and provide enrichment for gifted English Language Learners, despite the language barriers that exist. Michael S. Matthews introduces educators to the complexities and challenges of providing appropriate educational experiences for gifted English Language Learners. This unique, comprehensive book guides educators toward identifying gifted students in this population, including a look at nonverbal and Spanish-language testing, and gives advice for integrating these students into any gifted program. This is one of the books in Prufrock Press' popular Practical Strategies Series in Gifted Education. This series offers a unique collection of tightly focused books that provide a concise, practical introduction to important topics concerning the education of gifted children. The guides offer a perfect beginner's introduction to key information about gifted and talented education.
Melanjutkan penelitian sebelumnya tentang "Story Waveform Model sebagai Alternatif Lebih Baik dari Story Mountain Model dalam Mendesain Cerita Agar Lebih Mudah," yang terpublikasi di An1mage Jurnal Studi Kultural [1]. Kali ini peneliti berfokus pada mengapa banyak pengarang cerita fiksi mengalami writer’s block, salah satu potensinya adalah kekurangan dalam menggali konflik dalam suatu cerita yang digarapnya. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif serta observasi sekaligus keterlibatan aktif penulis dalam kelompok sampling di Komunitas Pembuat Cerita Indonesia (KPCIN) dalam WA Group Inovel dengan publikasi aktif karya komunitas inovel salah satunya di majalah An1magine dan publikasi novel digital di marketplace seperti Play Store,Google Play, Google Book, dan inovel marketplace itu sendiri. Kecenderungan adanya writer’s block bukan karena ketidakmampuan membuat cerita, atau tidak memiliki ketrampilan membuat cerita, tetapi terkadang lebih sering terjadi karena penulisnya tidak ada semangat untuk melanjutkan karena cerita dianggap belum menarik oleh pembuatnya, juga bukan karena tidak memiliki waktu untuk melanjutkannya, juga bukan karena tidak ada komitmen untuk menyelesaikannya, tetapi lebih banyak karena keadaan mental di mana tidak ada sesuatu yang menarik untuk melanjutkannya. Penelitian ini menjawab salah satu potensi writer’s block yang ada serta memberikan beberapa potensi solusi yang membantu para pengarang agar bangkit lagi dalam menyelesaikan ceritanya karena semangat baru yang dimilikinya.

“The many facets of Middle Eastern history and politics are admirably represented in this far-ranging anthology” (Publishers Weekly). In this insightful anthology, historians Marvin E. Gettleman and Stuart Schaar have assembled a broad selection of documents and contemporary scholarship to give a view of the history of the peoples from the core Islamic lands, from the Golden Age of Islam to today. With carefully framed essays beginning each chapter and brief introductory notes accompanying over seventy readings, the anthology reveals the multifaceted societies and political systems of the Islamic world. Selections range from theological texts illuminating the differences between Shiite and Sunni Muslims, to diplomatic exchanges and state papers, to memoirs and literary works, to manifestos of Islamic radicals. This newly revised and expanded edition covers the dramatic changes in the region since 2005, and the popular uprisings that swept from Tunisia in January 2011 through Egypt, Libya, and beyond. The Middle East and Islamic World Reader is a fascinating historical survey of complex societies that—now more than ever—are crucial for us to understand. “Ambitious . . . A timely work, it focuses mainly on sociopolitical texts dating from the rise of Islam to the debates concerning U.S. foreign policy in the post-9/11 world.” —Choice

Richard A. Debs analyzes the classical Islamic law of property based on the Shari'ah, traces its historic development in Egypt, and describes its integration as a source of law within the modern format of a civil code. He focuses specifically on Egypt, a country in the Islamic world that drew upon its society's own vigorous legal system as it formed its modern laws. He also touches on issues that are common to all such societies that have adopted, either by choice or by necessity, Western legal systems. Egypt's unique synthesis of Western and traditional elements is the outcome of an effort to respond to national goals and requirements. Its traditional law, the Shari'ah, is the fundamental law of all Islamic societies, and Debs's analysis of Egypt's experience demonstrates how Islamic jurisprudence can be sophisticated, coherent, rational, and effective, developed over centuries to serve the needs of societies that flourished under the rule of law.

Qur'ānic Studies Today brings together specialists in the field of Islamic studies to provide a range of essays that reflect the depth and breadth of scholarship on the Qur'ān. Combining theoretical and methodological clarity with close readings of qur'ānic texts, these contributions provide close analysis of specific passages, themes, and issues within the Qurʾān, even as they attend to the disciplinary challenges within the field of qur'ānic studies today. Chapters are arranged into three parts, treating specific figures appearing in the Qurʾān, analysing particular suras, and finally reflecting on the Qur'ān and its "others." They explore the internal dimensions and interior chronology of the Qur'ān as text, its possible conversations with biblical and non-biblical traditions in Late Antiquity, and its role as scripture in modern exegesis and recitation. Together, they are indispensable for students and scholars who seek an understanding of the Qur'ān founded on the most recent scholarly achievements. Offering both a reflection of and a reflection on the discipline of qur'ānic studies, the strong, scholarly examinations of the Qur'ān in this volume provide a valuable contribution to Islamic and qur'ānic studies.
