Best educational development books according to redditors

Assuming you're taking the DALF, you will probably want to become familiar with the structure of the exam, as the tasks are quite specific to the exam. There are lots of textbooks out there that will give you practice tasks specifically for the DALF C1 and offer tips. I'm using this one. Make sure you get practice for the specific types of questions that are on the exam. For example, in the writing section you will need to synthesise several documents into a fairly long written summary. Maybe you do this often, but I think, for the most part, this isn't something that a language learner will often practice. So you will need to do lots and lots of specific practice for it. The oral exam tends to have a specific structure that they like you to follow: that will be covered in the book as well.

I actually wrote a couple publishing handbooks for Amazon and Smashwords... if you are new, you should check them out! It's free on the Amazon. They are basic and will get you publishing right away! When you are publishing, try to go with the biggest vendors such as Amazon, Smashwords, and Direct2Digital. If you can get your book/story in all of them, you'll be much better off!


Smashwords and Direct2Digital are both distributors. They distribute your book to many other vendors, which saves you time. Doing just a bit of research will save you a rediculous amount of time! Try checking out other guides on Amazon and join in Kindle Unlimited right away. You will find a wealth of knowledge from already successful authors!

I'm excited for you! Self publishing is an amazing career.

This is all you need!! and I'm not even kidding. Written by David Stump ASC, who's a very Technical Dop.

EDIT: To Clarify, for Digital.

Also, Geoff Boyle has made a Cinematography Basics e-book for Kindle that's relateively cheap, and easy to acess here, that has a treasure trove of information.

This is what I used to get an idea of the Bio section.

The Kindle version is only $10, but if that's too much, you can also start a free trial of Kindle Unlimited and read it free that way.

As others have said, it really isn't something you study for. Reading a practice test version is mostly useful in that it helps you to get an idea of the types of questions that might be asked. "Studying" for this section is more like making sure you know your resume really well and can quickly/easily explain your answers. The text boxes under the multiple choice questions barely have more space than a tweet, so it's mostly impossible to answer in actual sentences.

Here's an (NDA-compliant) example of the format of the questions:

>How many ice cream flavors have you eaten in the past 6 months? Detail the ice cream flavors that you've eaten and who you ate them with.
>
>A - 0
>
>B - 1
>
>C - 2
>
>D - 3
>
>E - 4 or more X
>
>Chocolate - Bill
>
>Strawberry - Susan
>
>Vanilla - Marie
>
>Chunky Monkey - Kathy

It really is as simple as knowing a lot about yourself and being able to come up with examples on the fly.

I had to buy this book for my studies, really helped me.

I say it pretty often here, but I think that one of the best books out there just happens to be a study guide. The Society of Wine Educators CSW Book gives a great overview of various wine-related topics.

Getting 100 on the written is going to help you with the oral exam. But, there's a big difference between the written and the oral, in that on the oral you actually need to understand EVERYTHING. The oral exam question booklet is a must, and it should be totally ripped to shreds, almost falling apart when you walk into the exam. I knew that material cold.

I would also suggest this book : I was skeptical at first because it feels like self-published crap, but it is excellent, and really takes subjects that you might not know cold, and helps you understand them to be able to explain them. Highly recommend. I read it from time to time to stay fresh.

Good luck have fun. At FRG my DPE was Marina, and I aced it.

Something like this (click on "buy used", available for USD 6.77)? I'm assuming you are in US. Ebay could also work. Just search "A1 French textbook" into your preferred online merchant's website.

The French grammar book series that I like best is Grammaire progressive du français, whith Beginners, Intermediate, Advanced and "Improvement" editions.

j'ai trouvé cette livre très bonne: https://www.amazon.fr/Vite-bien-Niveaux-Livre-audio/dp/2090352728

Im studying for the D2 test and I’ve been using flash cards to help

https://quizlet.com/213710234/water-distribution-finale-study-guide-flash-cards/ Whatever I got wrong from here I would write them down on flash cards.

Also bought this practice exam book off amazon and made more flash cards based off the answers I got wrong.

I skeptically bought this book. It is pretty great, not an outline, but close enough to barbri. Highly recommend. my checkride is next week

If you're taking the Wastewater Treatment Operator Certification Exam in California, you should also use this book in addition to the ones from Sacramento State. Helpful practice exams.

It won't let me post a picture of them but this is one of them Practice Exams: Wastewater Treatment Operator Certification https://www.amazon.com/dp/1542311454/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_y15SDbGJ1D4P9

Pour moi, le premier truc à apprendre n'est pas technologique, ce sont les implications, ce qui se passe derrière. Il faut déjà un background, même léger sur les risques, et le premier qu'ils vont avoir, c'est celui du freemium dans les jeux sur tablette.

Pour le code, on verra à l'envie. Perso ,j'ai acheté
https://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/2047353998/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

et c'est loin d'être ininterressant, et ça peut se faire tranquille avec une feuille de papier (ou le carrelage du salon) dans un premier temps. Je me le garde au chaud pour le moment ou junior sera du bon age.

You'll be given a formula sheet at the test center, so you won't have to memorize any formulas.

Most state exams are based on the textbooks, Operation of Wastewater Treatment Plants, Volumes 1 and 2.

I also used these Practice Exams to prepare for the test.

To learn the fundamentals, take Sacramento State's course. Once you've completed the course, use Practice Exams for Wastewater Treatment Operator Certification to test your knowledge and make sure you're ready for the exam.

I’m interested in this book. Maybe? Who else?

The Wild Card: 7 Steps to an Educator's Creative Breakthrough
Wild Card Book

\> how do i think like a nurse to get these damn questions right?

First of all, that question has nothing to do with being a nurse and is 100% bogus, so don't get down on yourself.

Secondly, when I started studying for my NCLEX, I got a prioritization and delegation book (it's been a while, but something like this or this) and it helped me learn the "logic" (if it can be called that) behind the questions. Most of my professors would pull from NCLEX question banks, so usually I'd be able to apply the stuff from the books to the questions.

> I am not sorry if this infuriates you, because you're sympathizing with murderers and that's not my jam.

If you think I'm sympathizing with them, you need to increase your reading comprehension skills.

> You're inability to acknowledge this is quite pitiful.

I said it happened. Where did I say 100% we WEREN'T lied to?

> When you hand over your guns be sure to fetch them the bullets, the duct tape, the gag and the blindfold while you are at it. I know you're just trying to be helpful...

Bro, why do you assume everyone has guns? And then why would you assume that if I do have guns, I'd just give them up?

> If you still believe in terrorists that existed prior to 9/11 then I know I'm smarter than at least you. Yes terrorism exists now of course, we created it after 9/11 by occupying their country.

Do you know what the definition of a terrorist is? Of course, people having been terrorizing for political influence for millennia. If you think we created the first terrorists, then you have read a total of 0 books on history.

> You look back at iran crisis in the 70s. Know what they were shouting? "yankee go home yankee go home". Why not try it their way for a change AND YANKEE FUCKING GO / STAY HOME

UHHHHHHHHHHHH, I'm voting for Bernie Sanders so what in the actual fuck are you talking about? Your aim is so far off you don't know where your shot went.

Here, take this

Congrats on getting hired!!! I'd recommend a mix of PD/teaching books and content. When you get bored of one switch to the other. Both are equally important (unless you feel stronger in one area than the other).

For PD, I'd recommend: Teach Like a Pirate, Blended, The Wild Card, and the classic Essential 55. Another one on grading is Fair Isn't Always Equal - this one really changed how I thought about grading in my classes.

As far as content, you have a couple ways to go - review an overview of history like Lies My Teacher Told Me, the classic People's History, or Teaching What Really Happened, or you can go with a really good book on a specific event or time period to make that unit really pop in the classroom. The Ron Chernow books on Hamilton, Washington, or Grant would be great (but long). I loved Undaunted Courage about Lewis & Clark and turned that into a really great lesson.

Have a great summer and best of luck next year!!

Just an example..you need A1

It opened the FR amazon for me, but you can try the other versions too

If you put this book on your Amazon wishlist and send me a link, I will buy it for you.

I am 100% serious.
