Acts (Paideia: Commentaries On The New Testament)

Acts (Paideia: Commentaries on the New Testament)

Product Description


In Acts, the third of eighteen volumes in the Paideia commentary series, leading biblical scholar Mikeal Parsons gleans fresh theological insight into Acts by attending carefully to the cultural and educational context from which it emerges. Parsons see Acts as a charter document explaining and legitimating Christian identity for a general audience of early Christians living in the ancient Mediterranean world. Pastors, graduate and seminary students, and professors will benefit from this readable commentary, as will theological libraries. The Paideia commentaries are designed to be read through and used, not shelved and referenced. The main text is supplemented with maps, sidebars, and photographs. Indexes and reference lists help readers locate discussions in the commentary and in other secondary literature.

Customer ReviewsA balanced and ideal structure for learning
Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :61
Mortimer Adler spells out an ideal balance of learning experiences which result in highly literate and competent students. The Paideia proposal is not a recipe for what content to teach but a structure for making sure the student is not trapped in a school with only one way of processing thought. Didactic, or direct, instruction should not take up more than a fifth of the time at least a fifth should be spent in open-ended seminars that allow students to find personal meaning in conversation about significant topics the rest of the time should be spent in coached projects which require a synthesis of knowledge and skills. Current jargon would identify these elements with authentic assessment, multiple intelligences, and self-efficacy. This is a best practice model that assumes whats best for the best is best for all and asks all teachers to consider all students capable of reflective thought and creative problem-solving. The original reading list was heavily eurocentric but the current usage is not limited in any way except that readings must have depth and meaning. In its pure form, the Paideia Proposal respects teachers as professionals who design curriculum, so it is incompatible with formulaic philosophies that use teachers as technicians. The Paideia Center in North Carolina provides training Terry Roberts has written a recent book on it. Any parent or educator serious about deep literacy would embrace the Paideia Proposal.
Radical teaching methods
Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :33
This is the American philosopher Mortimer Adlers attempt to apply his philosophy to real-world problems. His biggest concern was the inability of the educational system to teach children to think (as opposed to memorizing a string of mind-numbing facts). To accomplish this goal he, along with education professionals, developed a program based on the Socratic method of teaching.

For example, one exercise might consist of the following instructions from the teacher:

"Today I am going to show an object to you and I want you to just look at it for one minute in absolute silence, At the end of that time, please write what you saw first and what question you have about the object. Remember, no talking, because once someone talks it disrupts and alters the others thinking."

This is a book with ideas that will challenge the way you have always thought about education. Indeed, it will make you question what our educational system is doing. If the purpose of an education is the creation of a well-rounded individual who questions and reasons and analyzes, then one will have to conclude that it has been an abject failure. Indeed, our society is increasingly split along two lines - a well-educated, erudite group that has developed a mocking attitude toward traditional conventions and manners and a non-educated group that carries a growing anti-intellectual bias.

For further information about the Paidea Proposal, you can visit the Radical Academy Site. As a father who has seen his son prosper under such a program, I would recommend that any parent seriously interested in obtaining a true education for their child explore the possibilites presented in this book.

Adler is excellent.
Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :16
I have no clue as to whether the author of this book is alive or not in 2005 but this book is from the 80s but he comments in it that all kids need to get a good education in order to make it in life. It may sound simple but he talks about kids being placed in vocational programs which he believes only limits their growth and their salaries once they grow up. The idea behind this literature is that all kids are suited for a four year curriculum, learning topics such as philosophy and biology for example and not just being thrown into vocational programs just because of the way one may look, or from the social economic circle one may hail from. Recommended literature to all parents, home school parents, private and public school educators. It is a fast read, because i checked out this book from my public library but the information is really rare to find now a days. Get it!!!
Quite disappointing
Rating Point :2 Helpful Point :6
Its well-written, clear and concise - an easy read. Unfortunately, it consists largely of a proposal that would, IMO, be counterproductive in education. A quick synopsis of the chapters may be useful for potential readers: The Part and chapter titles below are direct quotes, followed by a short synopsis of the contents of those chapters (the part after the colon). My bias will probably show a bit.

PART ONE: THE SCHOOLING OF THE PEOPLE
1. Democracy and Education: Democracy can only be served if everyone has equality of outcome, regardless of ability or effort. Children must be taught to be liberals.
2. Schooling - Only a Part of Education: Our schools must not avoid their duty to supply political guidance and therapy to children, because theyre too young to be educated anyway.

PART TWO: THE ESSENTIALS OF BASIC SCHOOLING
3. The Same Objectives for All: All students should be taught the same.
4. The Same Course of Study for All: All students should learn at the same pace.
5. Overcoming Initial Impediments: Homes are not all equal, so 3 years of preschool should be mandatory, and all identical - its only fair.
6. Individual Differences: Yes, they exist, but theyre not important, because they can be overcome.

PART THREE: TEACHING AND LEARNING
7. The Heart of the Matter: Children can teach themselves if properly guided.
8. The Preparation of Teachers: We can get better teachers if we pay them more money, and they should study liberal, humanistic studies while they pursue their careers, just in case they get off track.
9. The Principal: The Principal should have extensive classroom experience - mere administration isnt really the important issue.

PART FOUR: BEYOND BASIC SCHOOLING
10. Higher Learning: Its not the colleges fault, they get unfit students without the above steps.
11. Earning a Living and Living Well: If everyone is well-educated, everyone does better, but only if we achieve zero unemployment - if we fail at that basic, easy step, nothing can be blamed on education.
12. The Future of Our Free Institutions: Go be politically active or it wont work.

If you can agree with the ideas and plans in this book, you may enjoy it. If you live in the real world, and are looking for a plan for educating yourself or your children, youll probably do better elsewhere.
Education being stressed, which Creates Opportunities 4 all
Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :11
Literature that encourages faculty and parents to stress the academic curriculum. Mortimer Adler who hails from New York talks about the kids of today learning the basics as well as to advancing to upper level work. He believes that everyone should go to the university and not just be directed toward a fast track program. He is not saying that fast track is wrong but that options should be provided for the student. A must have book that sheds light on a subject that for the most part has been blurred. If you are tired of books that repeat things over and over but which do not provide a true answer to the educational crisis that is going in America, then get this. In the end, freedom is the key to growth for the student,but the system to some extent wants your kid McDonaldized (in terms of education).

    True enough this story shows how there very young men were gettin more money than some will see in a lifetime, however, it does show both sides of the game. Unlike Paid in Full, which in my opinoin is another example of how black cinema tends 2 glorify the drug game, Game Over gives you an in depth look at how this lifestly of fast cars and even faster money can quickly lead 2 ones downfall...It is a good look n2 the lives of Rich, Alpo, and AZ and it will leave you feeling speechless at how money can ruin even the closest of relationships. I gave it 4 out of 5 stars because it was so short and it didnt really go in depth about what Alpo was thinking when he did some of the evil things he did, but I guess that will all be revealed in vol. 2. This is a realistic look n2 the life that some of your favorite rappers are so quick 2 glorify w/out ever really be involved. However more importantly it shows exactly how drugs and the love of money ruins relationships and lives. AZ said in the film how all of the murders and murder attempts were inside jobs, and it is always the same story.

    Rating Point :4 Helpful Point :3
    I had just moved back to Houston from Seattle when this LP dropped and was in heavy radio-rotation around H-Town. Being away from the South for so long actually made me come back with a greater appreciation for Southern hip hop and the H-Town sound.

    This probably isnt the album 4 you if youre looking for a Nas "Illmatic," Jay-Z "Reasonable Doubt" or Wu-Tang "36 Chambers" type of album -- lyrical masterpieces.

    Thats not to hate on Paul and Cham b/c they got somethin 2 say.

    This is definitely an album you can ride 2 ... N Luv With My Money is still one of my favorites.

    Its really too bad Paul and Cham fell out after this album though Im not sure Id even want them to try to top this LP if they got right again.

    Fun, fun, fun hip hop album. Recommended for those who like to chill, have a good time and ride to some highly entertaining hiphop music.

    i recommend this if ud already heard albums both by Chamillionaire and Paul Wall, check this out. its gr8 too.
    Sweet, and syrupy just the way it should be.
    Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :4
    Chamillionaire and Paul Wall are two of the few emcees I like in the mainstream scene. Its not because they have anything truly provocative to say, but simply because they present their rap with so much flair and style, that its impossible to overlook them. Chamillionaire has gone a more lyrical route, while Paul Wall is continuing the subject matter that the Screwed Up Click made famous in the underground in the mid-nineties. On this release, its easy to tell both men were brought up listening to Screws music, much like the rest of the Houston scene, and they use the perfect mix of harmonizing flows about Lacs and grills, over trippy, and hypnotic beats.

    While its true that Paul nor Chamillionaire are profound lyricists, dropping GZA knowledge on this release, they are both damn good rappers, able to flip sweet punchlines galore. Clever metaphores abound throughout this album, while Chamillionaire sings the hooks in each song. I know Cham gets some flack for singing the hooks in his songs, and has even be labeled "50 Cent Jr." by some people because of it, but for the Chamillionaire detractors, face it Chamillionaire has a slick voice, and is one of the few rappers who SHOULD handle his own hooks(the only other I can think of is Cee-Lo, and, well, hes made a career out of crooning now).


    The Swishahouse crew handle production duties, and as one would expect, thats a good thing. Its hard to get an album sounding this authentic to the Houston sound Screw crafted over a decade ago, but 4 years ago, Swishahouse brought it and theyre still bringing the tight production today. These arent songs to get crunk to these are songs to chill to. This is an ideal album to listen to whether youre taking a late night drive, or simply chilling out in your home with your headphones on. Calm, cool, and downright dope, the production on this album matches the charismatic duo perfectly.

    If youre a fan of the H-Town sound, then this is perfect for you. Even if youre not, its still incredibly difficult not to love this release. If you can find it, pick it up. Highly recommended.

    I enjoyed this CD quite a bit. The production is pretty good, while both rappers do show some nice lyricism throughout the CD. In my opinion does a better job than Paul Wall, but thats just me. Either way, this CD is worth buying.

    Halo 3 Original Soundtrack (2-CD Set)

    Halo 3 Original Soundtrack (2-CD Set)

    Amazon.com


    In terms of mood (both martial and eerie) and structure (the score is divided into 10 suites), theres no major departure from the previous installments in the Halo series here. The biggest difference is that this time, composers Martin ODonnell and Michael Salvatori seemed to have had a bigger budget and were able to hire a large orchestra. Where the synthetic feel of the previous two CDs sometimes made them feel a little thin and cheap, Halo 3 has the means to match its ambitions: This music would not shame a big-budget Hollywood sci-fi/action movie. Tracks such as "To Kill a Demon" and "This Is the Hour" (both of which, typically, recycle the composers own themes) illustrate well this expanded sonic palette. The second CD ends with a hidden track ("Love Your Friends") by a band called Princeton, a fairly run-of-the-mill pop-punk effort which won a competition to be included on the soundtrack and which feels jarring compared to the rest of the music here. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

    Product Description

    Although i think this edition of game score is my least favorite of the three I still enjoyed it. Having two discs of content is great but it just feels like they stretched it out to much. Music doenst flow quite as well as the other two editions. All in all it has some issues IMO but I still like it and the HALO music has been wonderful and epic from the begining.
    Excellent Soundtrack: Not Just for Halo Fans
    Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :0
    This was an excellent soundtrack! I play Halo, and appreciate the music, but this soundtrack surpassed all of my expectations. It is a powerful, clever, and intelligent soundtrack. If you are a fan of orchestrated soundtracks to movies, youll love this!
    This soundtrack blends themes from the first game, and the second game, as well as a few new sounds. Also, this was performed by an orchestra, not MIDI files. The 2-disc set places the songs in the chronological order found in the game, with the rock song "LuVrFriends" at the end.
    Overall, this was a soundtrack that I will continue to listen to, for a long time to come it just doesnt get old...
    The BEST one yet!!
    Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :0
    The HALO music is mathematical genius on a base-8 scale. The way Marty has induced variations into the orginial themes that weve all known since the first game are truly nothing short of brilliant accomplishment. Nothing bad can be uttered about HALOs music.

    My favorite album so far has to be HALO 3. The dynamic range of instruments and their amplitude during crescendoes is just awesome to listen to. The music is epic, very moving and tells a story. I can just picture the game as I hear the music.

    I could never get into classical music without hearing this stuff first!

    The HALO 3 soundtrack is more of an orchestra type of sound more so than the others before it. HALO 2 soundtrack had a lot of popular rock music in it, as well as techo.

    This soundtrack brings a return of many of the strong themes present in HALO and HALO 2, as well as Marty Odonells talented use of variation, just like a master composer. I can find no fault in this soundtrack. The music is more riveting, more vivid and clear and has a great dynamic range, especially in the vocal choir. The Flood portions of music were truly horrific, while titles like Tribute or Greatest Journey are really touching.

    In my opinion, this soundtrack is the epitome in soundtracks. Its what youd expect to hear in top-budget movies. This represents the culmination of catching themes and beautiful music in a 7 year long series. My hats off to the sound team at Bungie Studios, and whoever they may have worked with. And a big congrats and thank you to Marty to creating such great music!
    Above and beyond the rest!

    There is no doubt that the previous Halo soundtracks have been great and mesmerising with a heroic feeling. However with Halo 3 composers Martin ODonnell and Michael Salvatori seemed to have had a bigger budget and were able to hire a larger orchestra. Here they brought back some of the familiar tracks and tweaked them producing an outstanding soundtrack seem fit for the most successful and recognised video game in history, the unforgettable Halo 3.

    Here the content is presented on two great discs, disc one containg 15 tracks and disc two containing 16 tracks. If you enjoyed Halo 3 then I recommend that you grab the soundtrack to relive those great memories of when you fought for mankind.

All of the music is good quality and its very different from most music I have in my collection. The pace of the music changes a lot. Track 3 of disk 2 is my faveroate beacause it motivates me. If you like veriaty then I recomend it to you.

    This is how it began...It is the year 2524. Harvest is a peaceful, prosperous farming colony on the very edge of human-controlled space. But we have trespassed on holy ground--strayed into the path of an aggressive alien empire known as the Covenant. What begins as a chance encounter between an alien privateer and a human freighter catapults mankind into a struggle for its very existence.But humanity is also locked in a bitter civil war known as the Insurrection. So the survival of Harvests citizens falls to a squad of battle-weary UNSC Marines and their inexperienced colonial militia trainees. In this unlikely group of heroes, one stands above the rest...a young Marine staff sergeant named Avery Johnson.

    Why did you tarnish my good memories of Halo: Combat Evolved with your politics, Mr. Staten? Why?
    Rating Point :2 Helpful Point :0
    Ok, so maybe I expected too much.

    How do you like your politics? To the left? To the right? None at all just want a good battle between aliens and humans? Im partial to the latter, personally. So, heres the deal If you like yours to the left, youll find the politics in "contact harvest" amusing and itll reinforce what you already feel about America and her allies. If you like yours to the right, youll find the constant-lifting of historical revisionist thinking from the left-copied and pasted into your favorite video game of all time.....irritating. If you "poo poo" on politics being injected into everything you see and hear on tv, in the movies, or in print media, youll find no reprieve here. To top it off, the storys not that great but that already seems to be covered by the rest of the posts here so, thought Id give you another angle.

    Sorry, Avery, its not your fault.

    Why did I give it two stars? Because its Halo, and I just couldnt give it one star. I just couldnt.
