Critical Thinking in Academic Writing

Critical Thinking in Academic Writing
Critical Thinking in Academic Writing by Shi PU
English | 2021 | ISBN: 1032038829 | 184 pages | PDF | 20 MB
The book inquires into critical thinking through a cultural approach. Based on an ethnographic study, it compares Chinese postgraduate students' conceptualisations and applications of critical thinking in three different settings in China and the UK. From an insider's perspective, it analyses the intricate interplay of multiple cultural and individual factors that conditions students' critical thinking development as they learn to write an academic thesis and to manage postgraduate learning. The book offers insights into the nature of problems that Chinese students encounter with critical thinking and envisions possibilities for the ideas for critical thinking to have a transformative power in an intercultural space.

This comprehensive report represents a landmark in the publication of medieval finds from excavations in York. It encompasses very large assemblages of medieval artefacts of a wide variety of materials, including iron, non-ferrous metal, stone, jet, amber, fired clay, glass and textile. These were recovered from four major sites in York, excavated during the 1970s and 1980s, at 16-22 Coppergate, 46-54 Fishergate, Bedern Foundry (hereafter known as the Foundry) and the College of the Vicars Choral of York Minster at Bedern (hereafter Bedern), and also from smaller sites in the vicinity of 16-22 Coppergate (Coppergate watching brief and 22 Piccadilly) and Bedern (2 Aldwark and Bedern Chapel). In total, approximately 6,000 stratified medieval objects are discussed; the bulk of these finds are of metal, either iron (c.3,000 objects, not including c.2,500 nails), or non-ferrous metals (c. 2,000).

Craft, Industry and Everyday Life Finds from Anglo-Scandinavian York

Craft, Industry and Everyday Life Finds from Anglo-Scandinavian York
Craft, Industry and Everyday Life: Finds from Anglo-Scandinavian York By Ailsa Jean Mainman, Nicola S. H. Rogers
2000 | 242 Pages | ISBN: 1902771117 | PDF | 5 MB
The vibrant urban centre and focus of population which York became in the Anglo-Scandinavian period provided a fertile ground for the development of a diverse range of crafts. Much of the evidence which underpins this assertion has come from in and around the streets of Coppergate, Piccadilly and High Ousegate, in the area south of the site of the Roman fortress. This focus of Viking Age York has been identified on the basis of discoveries made by antiquaries, collectors and archaeologists for over a century, but has been underlined by excavations undertaken at Coppergate and adjacent streets since 1976.
