This book demonstrates that awareness of gender equality and gender sensitivity are essential for pulling contemporary academia back from the brink. New forms of leadership are fundamental to reforming our institutions. The concept of a gender-sensitive university requires re-envisioning academia to meet these challenges, as does a different engagement of men and a shift towards fluidity in how gender is formulated and performed. Academia can only be truly gender-sensitive if, learning from the past, it can avoid repeating the same mistakes and addressing existing and new biases. The book chapters analyse these challenges and advocate the possibilities to 'fix it forward' in all areas. Representing ten EU countries and multiple disciplines, contributors to this volume highlight the evidence of persistent gender inequalities in academia, while advocating a blueprint for addressing them. The book will be of interest to a global readership of students, academics, researchers, practitioners, academic and political leaders and policy makers who share an interest in what it takes to establish gender-sensitive universities"--Provided by publisher.Routledge research in gender and society.Gender-Sensitive UniversitySex discrimination in higher educationEuropean Union countriesSex discrimination in higher education378.1982Drew Eileen P.Canavan SiobhánNjHacINjHaclBOOK9910765711903321The gender-sensitive university3654123UNINA03550nam 22005895 450 991038073370332120251204104700.09781484256503148425650610.1007/978-1-4842-5650-3(CKB)4100000010348561(DE-He213)978-1-4842-5650-3(MiAaPQ)EBC6040129(CaSebORM)9781484256503(PPN)242982166(OCoLC)1165363691(OCoLC)on1165363691(EXLCZ)99410000001034856120200204d2020 u| 0engurnn|008mamaatxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierBeginning Game Programming with Pygame Zero Coding Interactive Games on Raspberry Pi Using Python /by Stewart Watkiss1st ed. 2020.Berkeley, CA :Apress :Imprint: Apress,2020.1 online resource (XX, 348 p. 59 illus.)

Focused on making games rather than teaching programming theory, in this book you're more likely to see code on how gravity affects a missiles trajectory instead of the most efficient way to search through data. Even then the code is kept simple as games should be about playability rather than complex physics. There are links to the official documentation when you need to lookup information that isn't included in the book. Start with a simple text based game to grasp the basics of programming in Python. Then moves on to creating simple graphical games in Pygame Zero. Not only will you learn object oriented programming to make it easier to make more complex games, you'll also work to create your own graphics and sounds. 3D graphics are a little complex. So we focus on 2D games, including spins on some classic boardgames and arcade games. All the games are designed to run on a Raspberry Pi. They will work on any Raspberry Pi, butwill also work on any other computer that supports Python 3 along with Pygame Zero. The games you make will be playable and hopefully fun to play. And by the end of the book, you can step beyond the provided source code to develop your own unique games and programs.
