Respiratory disease is the most common reason for admission to intensive care and advanced respiratory support is one of the most frequently used interventions in critically ill patients. An intimate understanding of respiratory disease, its diagnosis, and its treatment, is the cornerstone of high quality intensive care. This book includes detailed sections on invasive ventilation, including the principles of each ventilatory mode and its applications in clinical practice. Each disease is discussed at length, with advice on management. The book is aimed primarily at trainees in intensive care and specialist nurses, but will also appeal to both trainees and more senior staff in anaesthesia and respiratory medicine.

Like many ideas that inform policy, practice and research, ‘transition’ has many meanings. Children make a transition to adulthood, pupils move from primary to secondary school, and there is then a movement from school to work, training or further education. Transitions can lead to profound and positive change and be an impetus for new learning for some individuals and be unsettling, difficult and unproductive for others. Transitions have become a key concern for policy makers and the subject of numerous policy changes over the past ten years. They are also of interest to researchers and professionals working with different groups. Transitions and Learning Through the Lifecourse examines transitions across a range of education, life and work settings. It explores the claim that successful transitions are essential for educational inclusion, social achievement, and economic prosperity and that individuals and institutions need to manage them more effectively.  Aimed primarily at academic researchers and students at all levels of study across a range of disciplines, including education, careers studies, sociology, feminist and cultural studies, this book is the first systematic attempt to bring together and evaluate insights about educational, life and work transitions from a range of different fields of research. Contributions include:   The transition between home and school   The effects of gender, class and age    Transitions to further and higher education   Transitions for students with disabilities   Transitions into the workplace   Learning within the workplace   Approaches to managing transitions

This book provides a practically-based introduction to the tools and techniques of computer systems analysis and design. The notation and terminology used is compatible with the latest version of the official UK government method, SSADM version 4.2+, but the order and delivery has been simplified to make it suitable as a first text in the subject for students on Computing, Information Systems and Business Studies degrees, especially those on modular courses. To emphasise the practical aspects of the topic, reference material and case studies are supported by an independent example, so that teaching and learning activities can progress independently but in parallel. This allows the material to be used by students and lecturers to support more advanced practical courses, especially where group activities and role-playing are involved. In addition, advice on professional practice and common skills are made where appropriate throughout the text.

One of the fundamental problems in education is that of applying skills and knowledge which learners have gained in school to problems they encounter outside school. This is particularly so in the area of mathematics, where the problems encountered by learners in applying mathematical knowledge are well documented.

The National Numeracy Strategy is the British version of the international concern about standards of mathematical achievement in schools. The authors diagnose knowledge application as the root of math literacy problems; but rather than prescribing best practices, they study a dozen primary school teachers as they developed ways of teaching math for application in the context of theories of learning. Lessons are also taught from the whole class teaching approach used in Japan. Hughes is an education professor at the U. of Bristol; his coauthors are with the U. of Exeter.

Improving Primary Mathematics: Linking Home and School (Improving Practice (TLRP))

Improving Primary Mathematics provides primary teachers with practical ideas about how to bring these two worlds closer to improve children’s mathematics learning.   Using a number of fascinating case studies focusing on children’s experiences of mathematics both inside and outside the classroom, the book asks:    How do children use mathematics in their everyday lives?   How can teachers use this knowledge to improve children’s learning in school?   What activities can teachers use with parents to help share the ways that schools teach mathematics?   What can parents do to support their children’s learning of mathematics?   Tried-and-tested practical suggestions for activities to support and encourage children’s learning of mathematics include: making videos to share teaching methods; children taking photos to show how they use mathematics at home; inviting parents into school to share in mathematics learning; and numeracy-based activities for children and their parents to do together at home.  All those involved in planning, teaching and supporting primary mathematics will benefit from new insights into how learning at home and at school can be brought together to strengthen and improve children’s learning of mathematics.

Parents can play an immensely important role in supporting their children's literacy learning at home, but how can primary teachers enlist the support of parents in helping children learn literacy? With a focus on improving children's literacy skills, this book provides practical answers to key questions that are directly relevant to all primary teachers and to many parents. It presents new ways of linking learning in home and school through a range of activities that can be used to share knowledge between children, parents and teachers. Activities include: <ul>
<li>teachers and children making videos to show parents how children learn literacy in school</li> <li>parents and children taking photos of the 'everyday' literacy they use outside school</li> <li>parents and teachers exchanging information through Home-School folders and diaries.</li>
</ul>
Particular attention is given to ways of working with parents from a diverse range of family backgrounds reflecting the multi-ethnic nature of many schools today. The practical activities can easily be fitted into the day-to-day activities of busy classrooms and can provide crucial new ways of improving children's learning of literacy skills.

It is now widely acknowledged that the most vulnerable and at risk children are children whom the current systems of education, care and health (especially mental health) are failing. The problem of dealing with 'at risk' children is also a problem of definition as one service provider s definition might often reflect an entirely different social reality from another's. Bringing years of collaborative expertise across many disciplines to the problem, the authors of How to Reach 'Hard to Reach' Children demonstrate how it is possible for all children to meet the following criteria of staying safe, enjoying and achieving, being healthy, making a positive contribution, and economic well-being.
