Book Description
A company of infantryman is one of the most powerful and versatile weapons at a nation’s disposal. Capable of any number of tasks assigned to them, these are men for whom the mission always comes first. These are men of honor, men of loyalty, created for one purpose: destroy the enemies of their nation in armed conflict. But what happens when divisions begin to become evident in the heart and soul of these men? What happens when they begin to question their creation, question their reality, and question all they have been trained to hold dear? For the commander of Combat Outpost Chemera, these questions become all too real when events begin to spiral out of control during operations in several isolated mountain villages in the war-torn nation they have been sent to occupy. Boredom, poor decision making, treasonous actions, and the grim reality of death lurking around every corner send the captain spiraling into his books, into his childhood memories, and into an examination of his military career. How were we meant to live our lives? What gives us real purpose? Sometimes the experience of war is the only way to find the answer.

It has been applied in a wide range of settings, with different purposes, for instance: specifying user requirements in system design or specifying training requirements in training needs analysis. The topics to be covered by this work include: general approaches to cognitive task analysis, system design, instruction, and cognitive task analysis for teams. The work settings to which the tools and techniques described in this work have been applied include: 911 dispatching, faultfinding on board naval ships, design aircraft, and various support systems. The editors' goal in this book is to present in a single source a comprehensive, in-depth introduction to the field of cognitive task analysis. They have attempted to include as many examples as possible in the book, making it highly suitable for those wishing to undertake a cognitive task analysis themselves. The book also contains a historical introduction to the field and an annotated bibliography, making it an excellent guide to additional resources.

This inspirational book provides a concrete model of why university-district partnerships are essential to preparing justice-focused school leaders, and how these partnerships can thrive.

It offers guidance for sustaining a radical partnership through the inevitable questions and conflicts that will arise, including coteaching of all content by university and district partners, and the mutual respect needed for successful joint work.

Book Description
Every worthwhile organization strives continuously to improve. What the authors of this groundbreaking book offer is nothing less than a system for achieving peak performance. As a result of their work with more than 2000 teams, in some 40 countries across the globe, the authors identified the 7 factors that distinguish what they call ’dream teams’ and on that basis they developed the structured approach described in the Handbook. Part I sets out the principles that underlie team performance. Part II shows how to train teams to become more creative. Finally, in Part III, the authors demonstrate their ideas in action with real-life examples from a wide variety of organizational settings. They emphasize throughout the role of leadership in stimulating creativity and innovation, and they explain how to inject new dynamism into existing organizational systems and practices. Anyone involved in teamworking would profit from a close study of the Handbook. It will be especially valuable to team leaders and facilitators, to project managers and to HRD practitioners and consultants.
