Grade 1 Character Is Higher Than Intellect

Many parents, educators, and citizens have a deepening concern about the eroding value structures of the American family and society. The resultant weak decision-making skills of our young people, even more mature people, are disturbing. Every day we are faced with numerous decisions; some are trivial while others have life-shaping rewards or consequences. Each decision we make is based on our value structures and contributes to the quality of life experienced by the individual and thus by society. Strong leaders possessing integrity and unyielding moral fiber do not just happen. In their youth they must be taught values-based analytical thinking skills and human performance skills so that they build frameworks of thinking patterns and behavior patterns upon which to base appropriate decisions. What values make up a strong values structure? There are five core or root values. All other values fit within or tie back to those core values. The five core values form a hierarchy, have an interrelationship with one another and can be taught. Read more here...

The College of Saint Elizabeth is the first permanent four-year liberal arts college for women ever established in New Jersey. In over two hundred photographs, many of them published here for the first time, we can follow the story of the first hundred years of this Catholic institution, founded in 1899 by the Sisters of Charity of Saint Elizabeth. Today the founding organization continues to sponsor and participate in the growth and development of the college. As we look back with them over their first century, we can see the progress achieved through dedication to women's education and the full participation of women in society. The establishment of graduate departments in education, health care, theology, and management has helped establish Saint Elizabeth as a strong, growing community of learning in the Catholic liberal arts tradition.

The two-volume set of LNCS 11655 and 11656 constitutes the proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Advances in Swarm Intelligence, ICSI 2019, held in Chiang Mai, Thailand, in June 2019. The total of 82 papers presented in these volumes was carefully reviewed and selected from 179 submissions. The papers were organized in topical sections as follows: Part I: Novel methods and algorithms for optimization; particle swarm optimization; ant colony optimization; fireworks algorithms and brain storm optimization; swarm intelligence algorithms and improvements; genetic algorithm and differential evolution; swarm robotics. Part II: Multi-agent system; multi-objective optimization; neural networks; machine learning; identification and recognition; social computing and knowledge graph; service quality and energy management.

Cognition, Intelligence, and Achievement is motivated by the work of the renowned Professor J. P. Das on the PASS (Planning, Attention, Simultaneous and Successive Processing) theory of intelligence and CAS measures (Cognitive Assessment System) of cognitive processes. This book reviews current research using this and other frameworks in understanding the relationships among cognition, intelligence, and achievement. The assessment and diagnosis of learning disabilities, mental retardation, and ADHD are addressed, and the interrelationships among cognition, culture, neuropsychology, academic achievement, instruction, and remediation are examined. No other book has presented such an integrated view across these domains, from such a diverse array of internationally known and respected experts from psychology, education, and neuroscience. Summarizes decades of research on PASS theory and use of CAS Discusses how findings in the neuropsychology of intelligence speak to PASS theory use and application Covers use of PASS and CAS for assessing and treating a variety of learning disabilities Outlines use of PASS and CAS for enhancing learning and cognitive processes

A Textbook of Artificial Intelligence for Class 9

Based on two national surveys--one of adults and one of secondary school students, this volume reports on their experiences with and their attitudes toward standardized tests of intelligence. The authors analyze the relations between a person's beliefs about the nature of intelligence, his estimate of his own intelligence, his attitudes concerning tests, and other personal characteristics.
