Providing an overview of the current context of ICT teaching within the primary classroom and an analysis of how to progress with it in order to enhance learning, this text: provides an analysis of what progression in ICT is and breaks this down into a series of detailed objectives includes 'real life' examples and case studies that highlight how progression occurs within the classroom contains a reference chart that documents progression in terms of learning objectives and subject content gives advice on teaching ICT in different settings or with varied resources. It is an essential resource for all practising and trainee primary teachers.

Providing practical guidance on enhancing learning through ICT in English, this book is made up of a series of projects that supplement, augment and extend the QCA ICT scheme and provide much-needed links with Units in other subjects’ schemes of work. It includes: fact cards that support each project and clearly outline its benefits in relation to teaching and learningexamples of how activities work in 'real' classroomslinks to research, inspection evidence and background reading to support each projectadaptable planning examples and practical ideas provided on accompanying downloadable resources. This book is highly recommended for all trainee and practising primary teachers.

Sent to Ireland in 1920 by Lloyd George's Coalition Cabinet, the Black and Tans acquired a fearsome reputation in their task of suppressing the IRA and united Irish and British public opinion against the government. This books tells their story.

Plan of Review This review of clay microstructure is aimed at the diverse group of professionals who share an interest in the properties of fine-grained minerals in sediments. During the last several decades, members of this group have included geologists, soil scientists, soil engineers, engineering geologists, and ceramics scientists. More recently, it has included significant numbers of marine geologists and other engineers. Each of the disciplines has developed special techniques for investigating properties of clay sediments that have proven to be fruitful in answering questions of central interest. Knowledge of clay microstructure-the fabric of a sediment and the physico­ chemical interactions between its components-is fundamental to all these disciplines (Mitchell 1956; Lambe 1958a; Foster and De 1971). Clay fabric refers to the spatial distribution, orientations, and particle-to-particle relations of the solid particles (generally those less than 3. 9 /Lm in size) of sediment. Physico-chemical interac­ tions are expressions of the forces between the particles. In this review, we trace the historical development of under­ standing clay microstructure by discussing key scientific papers published before 1986 on physico-chemical interactions in fine­ grained sediments and on clay fabric. Since the development follows an intricate path, the current view of clay microstructure is summarized. This summary includes a discussion of the present state of knowledge, the observations made so far, and the facts that are now established.
