Improve your relationships with others and help make the world a better place with this guide to changing your mindset to embrace inclusivity. Sharif Abdullah writes, “We live in a world that works for only a few.” The problem, he asserts, is exclusivity: the fundamental belief that we are separate from one another. By practicing exclusivity, we have created a soul-starved society. We suffer, both personally and as a society, from complex, interlocking problems so intense that they create a deep sense of emptiness in all of us. In Creating a World That Works for All, Abdullah shows how we can change our world by changing our consciousness. We can actually put an end to these complex problems by embracing inclusivity—the realization that all of our lives are inextricably linked. With a practical blueprint for this positive approach to change, he reveals how to turn from a mentality that disconnects us to one that embraces the goals of restoring balance to the Earth and building community with all others. Abdullah shows how this transformation to inclusivity lies at the heart of all the world’s spiritual traditions. “Creating a World That Works for All is a wonderfully rich collection of insights, analyses, and possibilities.

The world is entering a new technological, social and global age and it is our ability to create meaning which will decide whether we face a bright future or a tragic decline. We are living in an unsustainable state of cultural tension. Stress and depression are becoming more common, we are destroying our environment and while the rich become richer, inequality has spread both domestically and globally. The world's entire democratic system is strained and the only 'meaningful' story left is our role as consumers. We flee to and are trapped by the gilded illusion of happiness that is dictated to us by consumerism. In The World We Create, Tomas Björkman takes readers on a journey through history, economics, sociology, developmental psychology and philosophy, to illuminate where we have come from and how we have reached this breaking point. He offers new perspectives on the world we have created and suggests how we can achieve a more meaningful, sustainable world in the future.

An encyclopedia designed especially to meet the needs of elementary, junior high, and senior high school students.

This presentation is based on the following principles: 1. The key accountability for schools is to improve student performance. 2. Teachers in the classroom (including those in hard-to-staff fields such as math and special education) and their instructional practice are the single most important factors that will lead to improved student performance. 3. Teacher compensation is the single biggest part of the education budget (often more than 60%). 4. Therefore, linking pay to teacher performance â instructional practice that produces student learning gains is the best way to expend money in a way that ultimately improves student performance. This book shows how the connections among those principles are playing. [Web, ed].
