So, this means that a teacher must design tasks that are challenging for all students and then make judgments about when to prompt and how much prompting is needed for different students. Tasks need to be optimally challenging for all students, so a task might be challenging for one student and easy for another. They have to be prepared not to immediately cave in to students' expressions of, ‘this is too hard’, and simply tell the students the solutions or dumb down the task to make it less demanding. ![]() So, when introducing challenging tasks, teachers need to be prepared for a higher degree of student confusion and struggle that might have been, might not have been the case normally in their classrooms. When challenging tasks are relatively new for teachers and for their students, often teachers believe that challenging tasks are just for their more capable students, all students can benefit from challenging tasks. One of the first things that might come to mind concerns teachers who might be just starting out using challenging tasks in their classroom. Janette – That is a tricky question, Michelle, because the more I explore challenging tasks, the more I keep learning new things that are important. So, knowing what you know at the moment, what are two to three things that you wish all teachers knew about challenging tasks? But as you know, we're in the business of loving sweaty brains or crunchy eyebrows. So, I'm going to ask you to do something pretty tricky so you will get a bit of a sweaty brain, Janette. So in amongst all of the incredible things that you have investigated in your time in mathematics education, one of your most current areas of research is around challenging tasks.Īnd, I know this is both a really intriguing and complex area of research. Michelle – And, I'm going to start by asking you a bit of a curly question I think. Professor Janette Bobis – My pleasure Michelle, thank you. ![]() This has been a great dream of mine for a very long time to provide an opportunity for our teachers across NSW to get to hear some, it's like a little chip of the iceberg, really, in some of the amazing research that you're leading and working with your colleagues with across Australia at the moment, Janette, so thank you so much for joining us. So, Jeanette, in welcoming you and in welcoming all of our colleagues across NSW, I'd like to acknowledge that we meet on many different traditional lands and pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging. Or, actually, joined a little bit sooner than today because of scheduling clashes. ![]() We are so thrilled to be joined today by Professor Janette Bobis of Sydney University. Michelle Tregoning – Alright, well good afternoon everybody and welcome to our latest In Conversation. In conversation with Janette Bobis – 24:15 min

Most ebooks that sell for $0.53 to $9.67 are no better than what you’d get for free and quite possibly worse. TAMC recommends the Lowell Bair abridgement. The Abbreviated Monte Cristo has a ton of info on abridgements and children’s, comics, and manga adaptations. Maybe that’s rationalization and maybe that’s logic, but either way, perhaps you’d be better served by a shorter version of this classic story. Moreover, serialized stories had to remind readers of what had already happened. Dumas was paid by the word, and was therefore motivated to include words that were not, strictly speaking, necessary to the story. If you don’t want to read the whole thing, I get where you’re coming from. The Count of Monte Cristo: Abridged Translations Keep reading to learn how to choose one that’s right for you. Still, there are a TON of versions out there. 1990 – Anonymous, revised by David CowardĪpart from Robin Buss, I don’t know of any translator who re-did the whole thing from scratch.1846 – Anonymous, published by Chapman and Hall.There have been… three? It’s actually more complicated than that, but… according to Wikipedia, editions before the anonymous 1846 translation were abridged, and pretty much every edition after the anonymous 1846 translation was based on it, Bair and Buss being the exceptions. If you’re not too concerned with the details, jump down to the conclusion. That’s sorted, then.Īs soon as you visit the library or bookshop or click over to Amazon, you realize there are a host of publishers offering a myriad of paperback and hardcover editions and dozens of digital versions. You’ll find a copy in any decent library or bookstore, and if you like reading ebooks, you can download the novel for free because it’s not under copyright. ![]() This massive novel has been available in English since the 1840s. So you want to read Alexandre Dumas’ classic adventure, The Count of Monte Cristo. AND I found it on DVD so I can watch it over and over.Which translation or edition of The Count of Monte Cristo should I read? Watching this made-for-television series was one of them. The ending, as several other comments express, is a bit too up-beat, but so what? Life is full of wonderful and unexpected joys. Unlike some adaptations of Dumas' novels, this one had very little swash and even less buckle, being more character driven and fueled by last minute escapes and near fatal outcomes. I found myself an eight year old all over again. Dumas' story is so sturdy that any injury visited upon it would be only superficial. Although many liberties are taken, as usual with movie producers and directors, it still is an exciting and involving tale. I have seen almost every film adaptation of The Count, going back to the 1934 version with Robert Donat to the last one with Guy Pierce. Then on to Victor Hugo, Balzac, George Sand, and others, all recommended by those lovely ladies in the local library. I learned that Dumas was French and had written many other books. That experience changed my life from a casual reader to a dedicated and life-long lover of books. ![]() I was a bit over- come, but began to read this book right then and there, sitting in a bay window overlooking the little river that flowed past the library's huge windows. I had never actually read a "novel" of that size. Presenting mine to the local librarians, they suggested a novel by Alexander Dumas, The Count of Monte Cristo. At the end of the school year we were given the usual Summer Reading List. The two librarians in my little home town in Louisiana always pushed me to read books that were at least two grades ahead. This wonderful series, starring the great Gerard Depardieu, pulled me back to my childhood at about eight years old. One could say I am an old coot, geezer, at the age of 71. ![]() ![]() Skate 2 DLC does not come with the correct rap files. PSNpatch also does the same thing as ReActPSN. You're either shit out of luck or have to find updated RAP files, possibly even a higher version of ReActPSN. If it says unknown CFW, then the RAP files are not updated for the CFW you're using. RIF files should now be in the directory and everything hopefully works.Īlso, be aware that every time you want to activate a new RAP file, you'll have to re-activate your old ones as well.

What’s critical is we know what we’re doing now and we know what we’re doing next so attention can stay focused in the present.ġ0. These are not big goals (like winning the Olympics in downhill skiing), rather they are much smaller chunks (like getting out of the starting gate fast). The challenge of the task at hand slightly exceeds our skill set so we have to push ourselves outside our comfort zone. ![]() Total focus on the right here, right now. ![]() More specifically, intense concentration on a limited field of information. We do it because the activity itself is so incredibly enthralling that it’s its own reward.ħ. The experience is intrinsically motivating. We are captain of our own ship master of this small slice of destiny.Ħ. ![]() We have a powerful sense of control over the situation. The experience becomes intrinsically-rewarding or-in technical parlance-“autotelic.”ĥ. Our sense of struggle and strife vanishes. Past and future disappear and we are plunged into an eternal present, a deep now.Ĥ. We experience an altered perception of time. In other words, actions feel automatic and require little or no additional resources.Ģ. From the perspective of consciousness, we become the action. Whatever the case, if you want to know if an experience qualifies as flow, you can use these ten items (or, if you agree with us, the first six) as a checklist.ġ. Currently, we’re attempting to take a deeper look at this triggers in our Flow and Creativity study and our Flow and Psychedelics study (see ongoing research below). That said, we’re not totally convinced we’re right either-so we’ve teamed up with outside scientists/researchers to drill down further. We also tested this idea within our community (see research methodology below) and got a bit more proof. We think this is true, because, in our research for The Rise of Superman, hundreds of athletes described using these four “characteristics” as ways to drive themselves into the state. This is not to say that these ‘characteristics’ aren’t present during the state, we are simply arguing that they tend to arise before the state itself and are actually drivers that propel us into it. Instead, we think these four are actually “ flow triggers” or pre-conditions that lead to the experience. While we absolutely agree that the first six of these characteristics constitute flow, we’re not yet convinced the last four (intense concentration, immediate feedback, clear goals, and the challenge/skills ratio) are characteristics of the state. Here at FGP, we deviate slightly from this notion. While each of these phenomena can be experienced independently, when they all show up together-that’s flow. The research of Csikszentmihalyi and a few other scientists uncovered ten core characteristics (see list below) that underpin the state. How the hell do you know if you’re in flow-or what’s a more technical definition of flow? In the winter, the space transforms into the Lodge at Gallow Green, a ski lodge built on the site with seasonal cocktails. The twinkly atmosphere, first-rate signature cocktails, and flavorful appetizers perfect for sharing elevate Sleep No More from a night of theatre to a night out on the town.

The earlier you choose, the more time you have to hang out in the Manderlay Bar and acclimate to the Sleep No More atmosphere, but the show doesn’t technically begin in that space, so you’re just as well choosing a later time like 7:45PM. For an 8PM performance, the first tickets available are at 7PM and blocks are available for 15-minute intervals. Buying tickets Entry to Sleep No More is staggered and you buy tickets for a time slot. Read More: WHY IMMERSIVE THEATRE ISN’T JUST A FADġ. This article was last updated July 1, 2019. While experiential theatre is more common now, there are still things to know before you go. When it opened in 2011, Sleep No More launched the immersive theatre trend. Sleep No More, an immersive, site-specific telling of Shakespeare’s Macbeth, creates an atmosphere that speaks to the tale of the Scottish king and his scheming, power-hungry wife rather than a linear plot. ![]() It makes sense the production from Punchdrunk theatre company nestles between the Chelsea art galleries-as the experience feels more like performance art than traditional theatre storytelling. Off the beaten path of theatre hubs in Manhattan-away from Times Square’s packed theatre district, far from the downtown cabaret scene-the McKittrick Hotel continues to host the award-winning theatrical experience Sleep No More. |
