    Speech-Less: Tales of a White House Survivor , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 888min
    As a young political geek, Matt Latimer dreamed of one day heading to Washington to work for a conservative president and usher in another Reagan Revolution. With the support of his slightly mortified liberal parents, he tried to do just that - but his youthful exuberance began to cool as he moved up the rungs of power.On Capitol Hill he worked for a Congressman who "misremembered" basic facts, assisted a U.S. Senator who hid from his own staff, and met another who cowed her male aides into carrying her purse.Finally ensconced in the White House as one of George W. Bush's chief speechwriters, he soon realized that the post wasn't at all what he'd envisioned. Less like Aaron Sorkin's The West Wing and more like NBC's The Office, D.C.'s most prestigious address turned out to be a bizarro world in which the major players were in some ways mirror opposites of their public images. ungekürzt.

    Star-Spangled Men: America's Ten Worst Presidents , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 598min
    Picking America's best presidents is easy. George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Franklin D. Roosevelt usually lead the list. But choosing the nation's worst presidents requires more thought. In Star-Spangled Men, respected presidential biographer Nathan Miller puts on display those leaders who were abject failures as chief executive. With pointed humor and a deft hand, he presents a rogues' gallery of the men who dropped the presidential ball, and sometimes their pants as well. Miller includes Richard M. Nixon, who was forced to resign to escape impeachment; Jimmy Carter, who proved that the White House is not the place for on-the-job training; and Warren G. Harding, who gave "being in the closet" new meaning as he carried on extramarital interludes in one near the Oval Office. This current edition also includes a new assessment of Bill Clinton - who has admitted lying to his family, his aides, his cabinet, and the American people. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    State of War: The Secret History of the CIA and the Bush Administration, Hörbuch, Digital, 365min
    With relentless media coverage, breathtaking events, and extraordinary congressional and independent investigations, it is hard to believe that we still might not know some of the most significant facts about the presidency of George W. Bush. Yet beneath the surface events of the Bush presidency lies a secret history, a series of hidden events that makes a mockery of current debate. This hidden history involves domestic spying, abuses of power, and outrageous operations. It includes a CIA that became caught in a political cross fire that it could not withstand, and what it did to respond. It includes a Defense Department that made its own foreign policy, even against the wishes of the commander-in-chief. It features a president who created a sphere of deniability in which his top aides were briefed on matters of the utmost sensitivity, but the president was carefully kept in ignorance. State of War reveals this hidden history for the first time, including scandals that will redefine the Bush presidency. Language: English. Narrator: Boyd Gaines.

    LES RÉSULTATS SCOLAIRES DES ENSEIGNANTS STAGIAIRES
    L'enseignant occupe une position centrale dans le système d'éducation avec une bonne direction et des aides pédagogiques appropriées. L'efficacité de l'enseignant peut être améliorée, mais les plans les plus ingénieux d'administrateurs inspirés et la meilleure panoplie de dispositifs pédagogiques sont de peu d'utilité si l'enseignant est ignorant, non qualifié ou indifférent. Ainsi, le succès de toute réforme éducative dépend de la qualité de l'enseignement, dépend dans une large mesure de la qualité de la formation des enseignants. De tous les facteurs qui influencent la qualité de l'éducation et sa contribution au développement national, la qualité, la compétence et le caractère de l'enseignant sont sans doute les plus importants. Rien n'est plus important que d'assurer une offre suffisante de hauts. Rien n'est plus important que d'assurer un approvisionnement suffisant en résultats de haute qualité au corps enseignant, de leur fournir la meilleure préparation professionnelle possible et de créer des conditions de travail satisfaisantes dans lesquelles ils peuvent être pleinement efficaces. La qualité de l'éducation dépend de la qualité des enseignants et la qualité des enseignants dépend de la qualité de la formation des enseignants, parmi de nombreux autres facteurs. Ainsi, les résultats scolaires des enseignants stagiaires sont également essentiels pour obtenir de meilleurs résultats.

    Daydream Believers: How a Few Grand Ideas Wrecked American Power , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 467min
    America's power is in decline, its foreign policy adrift, its allies alienated, its soldiers trapped in a war that even generals regard as unwinnable. What has happened these past eight years is well known. Why it happened continues to puzzle. Daydream Believers combines in-depth reporting and analysis to explain how George W. Bush and his aides got so far off track - and why much of the nation followed.For eight years, the White House and many of the nation's opinion pages rang out with appealing but deluded claims: that we live in a time like no other, that new technology transformed warfare, that the world's peoples will be set free if only America topples their dictators, and that those who dispute such promises do so for partisan reasons. They thought they were visionaries, but they only had visions. And they believed these daydreams.With stunning anecdotes, hidden history, and sharp insight, Kaplan reveals a truth whose understanding is crucial to finding leaders who can see the world as it really is. ungekürzt.
