A debut novel of emerging youth writer Karen Noble. Fast paced and engaging, set in a bleak dystopian future where believing in the power of sheer will is the only way you can survive. There had been many wars, and in each war, there was a robot who had nearly limitless power to kill. One girl needs to unlock the secrets of the government and secrets about herself. Once upon a time, it took a simple girl to learn what it really means to be human.

How should a teacher be taught? This book suggests that it is necessary to move away from the highly technicist and one-size-fits-all approaches to teaching in order to instil confidence throughout a teacher's training. Instead a pedagogy of induction should engage the student in their profession from the outset of their studies.

Educators cannot empower their students without being empowered themselves. This book presents a number of proven principles and successful strategies that have been demonstrated by rigorous research to be effective in assisting teachers to carry out their fundamental mission of helping their students to achieve significant learning outcomes.
