Veteran teacher Denise Pope follows five highly regarded students through a school year and discovers that these young people believe getting ahead requires manipulating the system, scheming, lying, and cheating. On the one hand, they work hard in school, participate in extracurricular activities, serve their communities, earn awards and honors, and appear to uphold school values. But on the other hand, they feel that in order to get ahead they must compromise their values and manipulate the system by scheming, lying, and cheating. In short, they "do school"-that is, they are not really engaged with learning nor can they commit to such values as integrity and community. The words and actions of these five students-two boys and three girls from diverse ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds-underscore the frustrations of being caught in a "grade trap" that pins future success to high grades and test scores. Their stories raise critical questions that are too important for parents, educators, and community leaders to ignore. Are schools cultivating an environment that promotes intellectual curiosity, cooperation, and integrity? Or are they fostering anxiety, deception, and hostility? Do today's schools inadvertently impede the very values they claim to embrace? Is the "success" that current assessment practices measure the kind of success we want for our children? 606 $aAcademic achievement$zUnited States 606 $aHigh school students$zUnited States 606 $aStudent aspirations$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAcademic achievement 615 0$aHigh school students 615 0$aStudent aspirations 676 $a373.18 700 $aPope$b Denise Clark$f1966-$0880467 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910452312603321 996 $a"Doing school"$92446676 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02612nam a2200361 a 4500 001 991002949319707536 008 160721t20142014sz a b 000 0 eng d 020 $a9783319043937 035 $ab14258845-39ule_inst 040 $aBibl.

Brownian motion is a well-suited model for a wide range of real random phenomena, from chaotic oscillations of microscopic objects, such as flower pollen in water, to stock market fluctuations. It is also a purely abstract mathematical tool which can be used to prove theorems in "deterministic" fields of mathematics. The notes include a brief review of Brownian motion and a section on probabilistic proofs of classical theorems in analysis. The bulk of the notes are devoted to recent (post-1990) applications of stochastic analysis to Neumann eigenfunctions, Neumann heat kernel and the heat equation in time-dependent domains 650 0$aBrownian motion processes 650 0$aMathematical analysis 650 0$aStochastic analysis 711 2 $aÉcole d'été de probabilités de Saint-Flour$n<43. ;$d2013 ;$cSaint Flour, France> 907 $a.b14258845$b11-11-16$c21-07-16 912 $a991002949319707536 945 $aLE013 60-XX BUR11 (2014)$g1$i2013000293479$lle013$op$pE36.39$q-$rl$s- $t0$u0$v0$w0$x0$y.i15787035$z11-11-16 996 $aBrownian motion and its applications to mathematical analysis$9821272 997 $aUNISALENTO 998 $ale013$b21-07-16$cm$da $e-$feng$gsz $h0$i0
