Self-Evaluation in European Schools: A Story of Change

In a political and economic climate in which school performance is made public, performance tables and inspectors' reports can only tell a partial story. This is a unique book. It tells the story of one school seen through the eyes of a pupil, a parent, a teacher, a headteacher and a critical friend. The story is a compelling journey through the process of school improvement; theories of school effectiveness and school improvement are progressively clarified. This book is based on a well-known and well-documented research project that represents eighteen European countries, which clearly sets it in a European Policy context. It includes a wealth of practical tools for raising standards for teachers and school managers to refer to, and guidance on how to use them. This eagerly awaited follow-up to Schools Must Speak for Themselves by John MacBeath (RoutledgeFalmer 1999) is a vital and useful source of good ideas, challenging insights and practical strategies for real schools.

On a dark and stormy night, a book collector shows Mortensen the prize of his collection: an illuminated manuscript from 1512. When Mortensen sees a painting of an airplane on one of its pages, he knows he has a mystery to unravel. With a zap from his time gun, he travels back to medieval Scotland to look for clues. A wise scribe and a mute witch help him on his adventure, but neither of them can answer his question: how did an airplane crash land in the Middle Ages?

The Secret Mummy: Book 4 (Mortensen's Escapades)

In the sleepy village of Brasov, nestled in a region of Romania better known as Transylvania, seven villagers have been found with fang marks on their necks. Mortensen isn't the superstitious sort, but he heads back to 1891 to find some answers. A trail of stolen antiques, including a priceless mummy sarcophagus, leads him a hundred years later to Prague where a young tourist has suffered a similar attack. This looks like the work of a time-traveling vampire! And Mortensen thinks he's out for more than just blood.
