Parents can end up reeling with the empty-nest blues, while teens find their powers of self-reliance stretched to the breaking point.
Launching a child from home is second only to child-birth in its impact on a family. Boys who, in a climate that can stigmatize them merely for being male, don't necessarily want to navigate the complicated, coming-of-age journey to manhood alone.ĬLICK HERE TO GET BOOK Book The Launching Years Description/Summary: And it's a book about boys at a vulnerable age, living on their own for perhaps the first time. It's a different kind of story about college boys, a story in which they candidly discuss sex, friendship, social media, drinking, peer pressure, gender roles, and even porn. It's a vital book about the transition from boyhood to manhood it brilliantly weaves psychology, current events, neuroscience, and interviews to explore the state of masculinity today, and what that means for students and their parents. Fraternity is more than just a page-turning, character-driven read. To find out what it's like to be a fraternity brother in the twenty-first century, Robbins contacted hundreds of brothers whose chapters don't make headlines-and who suggested that many fraternities can be healthy safe spaces for men. Their year-in-the-life stories help explain why students are joining fraternities in record numbers despite scandalous headlines. Meet Jake, a studious freshman weighing how far to go to find a brotherhood that will introduce him to lifelong friends and help conquer his social awkwardness and Oliver, a hardworking chapter president trying to keep his misunderstood fraternity out of trouble despite multiple run-ins with the police. * A Real Simple Best Book of 2019: "An essential read for parents and students." * The New York Times bestselling author of Pledged is back with an unprecedented fly-on-the-wall look inside fraternity houses from current brothers' perspectives-and a fresh, riveting must-read about what it's like to be a college guy today. These issues are explored from the perspectives of teachers, students, researchers and other stakeholders in Oman, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Sudan.ĬLICK HERE TO GET BOOK Book Fraternity Description/Summary: It examines issues of the relationship between English, Arabic, cultural identity and power in the region within a historical and contemporary framework the experiences of learners from Arabic-medium secondary schools adjusting to English-medium colleges and the challenges and potential rewards of promoting student-centered classrooms and technology in traditionally teacher-centered environments. The current volume explores some of the concerns related to the place of English and English-medium education in the Arab world. Even as debate continues, issues of politics, culture, social mobility, and identity are played out in the English language classrooms of the Arab world on a daily basis. Debate about the potential effects, both positive and negative, of English-medium education and the learning of English in the region’s schools and universities is one expression of this. Perhaps due to the nature of these differences, Arab-Western relations have been described as existing on one of the world’s great cultural fault-lines. Though diverse, the Arab world boasts a unique culture and native language, both of which are unlike those found in English-speaking countries.
