ABSTRACT: This qualitative research study reports the observed and reported experiences of a second grade regular education teacher and her twenty-four students when they were provided choices in writing workshop. Students were encouraged to be decision makers; they could choose a writing topic from a list or come up with their own writing ideas. Writing instruction took place in the form of both mini lessons and conferences. This study examines students' interest towards writing as well as the quality of student writing. The study suggests that students chose to write about topics that were meaningful. As a result, students were more motivated writers and thinkers during writing workshop. The author shows examples of students' work and explains how some students arrived to a published piece by examining each step of the writing process. Finally, the study documents how student choice can motivate and encourage even the most reluctant writers.

Championing Science shows scientists how to persuasively communicate complex scientific ideas to decision makers in government, industry, and education. This comprehensive guide provides real-world strategies to help scientists develop the essential communication, influence, and relationship-building skills needed to motivate nonexperts to understand and support their science. Instruction, interviews, and examples demonstrate how inspiring decision makers to act requires scientists to extract the essence of their work, craft clear messages, simplify visuals, bridge paradigm gaps, and tell compelling narratives. The authors bring these principles to life in the accounts of science champions such as Robert Millikan, Vannevar Bush, scientists at Caltech and MIT, and others. With Championing Science, scientists will learn how to use these vital skills to make an impact.

"This publication collects a series of essays, most previously unpublished, on the themes of judicial decision-making, judicial impartiality and jugment writing. These matters are interrelated and together reflect the core aspects of the judicial task. The ultimate judicial value is impartiality. It is the essence of the function performed by the judiciary in teh administration of justice. However, impartiality must not only exist, it must be manifest. The common theme of the essays is the indentification of how the process of judicial decision-making, in accordance with a 900-year-old common law tradition, leads to both the reality and the appearance of impartiality with the fact that different judges bring to the judicial task a variety of perspectives and values. The appearance of impartiality is ultimately displayed in the reasons for judgment." - from the Foreword by the Honourable JJ Spigelman AC, Chief Justice of New South Wales.

We make decisions throughout the day and in our lifespan we make thousands of decisions. Most of the decisions are routine barring few ones which have profound impact on our life. Gaining competence in decision making is highly desirable for personal and professional prosperity. The objective of writing this book is to provide an opportunity to gain the mastery in decision making. Decision making is both science and an art. When we talk of science we will systematically understand what constitutes to be a decision, how we have evolved as decision makers, how we deviate from rationality under the influence of cognitive biases, how we get emotional manipulated. We will learn these with the help of behavioral sciences - neurosciences, social science, neuroeconomics, cognitive psychology and group dynamics. Decision making is an art because we interpret the decisions subjectively. We have to learn and master this art of decision making so as to be an able, rational and ethical decision maker at individual levels, in groups and at organization level. In this highly engaging book, the author details decision making process, explains how to shield from cognitive biases, external manipulations and temptations, describes various tools and techniques required for decision making and throws light on drafting our own ethical code. The concepts are explained in details alongwith case studies and real life examples. It is an essential read for all individuals.

A trusted editor turns his attention to the most important part of writing: revision. So you’ve just finished writing something? Congratulations! Now revise it. Because revision is about getting from good to better, and it’s only finished when you decide to stop. But where to begin? In On Revision, William Germano shows authors how to take on the most critical stage of writing anything: rewriting it. For more than twenty years, thousands of writers have turned to Germano for his insider’s take on navigating the world of publishing. A professor, author, and veteran of the book industry, Germano knows what editors want and what writers need to know: Revising is not just correcting typos. Revising is about listening and seeing again. Revising is a rethinking of the principles from the ground up to understand why the writer is doing something, why they’re going somewhere, and why they’re taking the reader along with them. On Revision steps back to take in the big picture, showing authors how to hear their own writing voice and how to reread their work as if they didn’t write it. On Revision will show you how to know when your writing is actually done—and, until it is, what you need to do to get it there.

Nils Brunsson is one of the leading European organization theorists who has written and researched decision-making in organizations. He has often questioned the rationality of decision-making, and argued that it is as important to understand other consequences of decision-making apart from choice - such things as mobilizing action, allocating responsibility, and legitimizing organizations. These consequences of decisions can influence decision-making and the assumptions about feasible norms that provide their context. Decisions often run counter to actions and are part of what Brunsson calls organizational hypocrisy. Decisions can substitute for action, or decrease the probability of the action they call for. The norm of rationality is far from obvious: sometimes decision-makers can recommend systematic irrationality. This book collects together a wide-range of Nils Brunsson's most important writing on decision-making, brought together in one volume for the first time, with an introduction from the author.
