pemHow civil liberties triumphed over national insecurityemp pBetween the two major red scares of the twentieth century, a police raid on a Communist Party bookstore in Oklahoma City marked an important lesson in the history of American freedom.p pIn a raid on the Progressive Bookstore in 1940, local officials seized thousands of books and pamphlets and arrested twenty customers and proprietors. All were detained incommunicado and many were held for months on unreasonably high bail. Four were tried for violating Oklahoma's criminal syndicalism law, and their convictions and ten-year sentences caused a nationwide furor. After protests from labor unions, churches, publishers, academics, librarians, the American Civil Liberties Union, members of the literary world, and prominent individuals ranging from Woody Guthrie to Eleanor Roosevelt, the convictions were overturned on appeal.p pShirley A. Wiegand and Wayne A. Wiegand share the compelling story of this important case for the first time. They reveal how state power--with support from local media and businesses--was used to trample individuals' civil rights during an era in which citizens were gripped by fear of foreign subversion.p pRichly detailed and colorfully told, emBooks on Trial emis a sobering story of innocent people swept up in the hysteria of their times. It marks a fascinating and unnerving chapter in the history of Oklahoma and of the First Amendment. In today's climate of shadowy foreign threats--also full of unease about the way government curtails freedom in the name of protecting its citizens--the past speaks to the present.p p p pstrong strongp

Since the turn of the century, emerging technologies, along with their use in educational contexts, have seen a number of radical changes occur within the learner landscape, and these have impacted both teachers and students. This has seen changes in the way that learners engage with content and interact with instructors. Technological advancement has been rapid, and its impact on teaching and learning is ever-constant. This has led to a need for educators to continually assess and consider the implication that new and emerging technologies hold for their teaching contexts, their professional development, and the skills possessed and required by their students. It is here that the value of this book becomes apparent, as practitioners will be able to walk away with a greater understanding of how to best employ various aspects of technology-driven learning, instruction, and assessment techniques when teaching English to speakers of other languages TESOL from a variety of pedagogical contexts. In this book, the use of more 'traditional' software tools and classroom staples are reexamined for educational advantage in the digital era and for use with 21st century learners. Specifically covered topics are making meaning from experience with digital storytelling, development of interactive multimedia-based presentations with Prezi, and means of supporting and supplementing instruction with podcasts and screencasts. This book is intended to be read in whole or in part by teachers, students, parents, and any other stakeholders who may be interested in the topics.

This book explores the housing problem throughout the 70 years of Soviet history, looking at changing political ideology on appropriate forms of housing under socialism, successive government policies on housing, and the meaning and experience of 'home' for Soviet citizens. Attwood examines the use of housing to alter gender relations, and the ways in which domestic space was differentially experienced by men and women. pMuch of Attwood's material comes from Soviet magazines and journals, which enables her to demonstrate how official ideas on housing and daily life changed during the course of the Soviet era, and were propagandised to the population. Through a series of in-depth interviews, she also draws on the memories of people with direct experience of Soviet housing and domestic life. Attwood has produced not just a history of housing, but a social history of daily life which will appeal both to scholars and those with a general interest in Soviet history.br
