![]() Our Learning Coaches hold scholars accountable not only for their behavior, but also for restoring balance to the learning community when their behavior choices disrupt it. If a scholar deviates from these norms or exhibits behavior that violates trust, it is that scholar’s responsibility to make amends with the learning community. We aim to demonstrate warmth and acceptance, while also fostering a sense of deep accountability. Our coaches form deep relationships with students that form the foundation of our work together. TBRI (Trust-Based Relational Intervention) We regularly recognize and celebrate the members of our community who demonstrate these virtues. Our scholars commit to being willing to learn, approaching each experience and challenge with a unique combination of ownership, self-control, persistence, integrity, curiosity, empowerment and social intelligence. Scholars feel more confident when they have a sense of ownership in their learning environment. We encourage scholars to embrace a growth mindset, believing in their own ability to grow. Instead, they hold each scholar responsible for completing their personalized learning paths and projects to remain on track academically.įamilies are invited to actively participate in their child’s learning experience to reinforce the lessons learned after the scholar leaves the classroom. Our Learning Coaches do not typically assign homework. ![]() Our scholars are not confined to desks or traditional classroom structures instead, they collaborate with other scholars to create the environment that best supports their style of learning. Learning is constant and happens anytime, anywhere. Exploring while collaborating helps them connect with scholars developing at different competency rates. Our scholars create learning communities by building relationships with their fellow scholars and coaches. Scholars learn in environments such as civic centers, museums, and educational institutions so their development occurs both in and out of the classroom. Our campus is embedded within the communities they serve. ![]()

![]() ![]() It has sold all but 800 of the 4,000 sets of the 32-volume 2010 edition it had left at a Kentucky warehouse, the company said. Since Britannica announced last month that it was discontinuing its print editions, the Chicago-based company said sales have skyrocketed. "While Wikipedia has become ubiquitous, the Britannica remains a consistently more reliable source," she said.It turns out all Encyclopaedia Britannica had to do to breathe new life into the sale of its print edition was to kill it. Kobayashi said as information professionals, librarians see an important part of their role as directing patrons to trustworthy information sources. "The most important thing about Britannica is that Britannica is relevant and vibrant because it brings scholarly knowledge to an editorial process to as many knowledge seekers as possible." ![]() "To me, the most important message is that the printed edition was not what made Britannica," Cauz said. It also has a staff of more than 100 editors. "If the search is broader, searching across several online sources may yield more options."īritannica has thousands of experts' contributors from around the world, including Nobel laureates and world leaders such as former President Bill Clinton and Archbishop Desmond Tutu. "Sometimes subject knowledge and familiarity with standard resources may get faster results than keying in a search and sifting through results," she said. Kobayashi noted that whether she uses traditional methods in doing research or going online depends on the question she wants answered. "The major disadvantage is the need for a computer or devices with access to the Internet." "There are many advantages to online searching, chief among them the ability to search within the text," Kobayashi said. However, the proliferation of publishers of electronic databases has resulted in an audience becoming attuned to online searching. Lynne Kobayashi of the Language, Literature & History section of the Hawaii State Library notes there will always be people who prefer using print sources over electronic sources. "Whereas our online edition is updated continuously." "A printed encyclopedia is obsolete the minute that you print it," Cauz said. The encyclopedia has become increasingly social as well, Cauz said, because users can send comments to editors. Online versions of the encyclopedia now serve more than 100 million people around the world, the company said, and are available on mobile devices. The company plans to mark the end of the print version by making the contents of its website available free for one week, starting Tuesday. "The sales of printed encyclopedias have been negligible for several years," Cauz said. The final hardcover encyclopedia set is available for sale at Britannica's website for $1,395. The first CD-ROM version was published in 1989 and a version went online in 1994. The company started exploring digital publishing the 1970s. That number fell to 40,000 just six years later in 1996, he said. The top year for the printed encyclopedia was 1990, when 120,000 sets were sold, Cauz said. "This has to do with the fact that now Britannica sells its digital products to a large number of people." "This has nothing to do with Wikipedia or Google," Encyclopaedia Britannica Inc. ![]() ![]() Inflation has not only been a problem for food prices, but also energy costs. In fact, labour shortages have spread to other sectors that support supply chains, including ports and warehouses.Ĭoupled with increased e-commerce demand since the start of the pandemic, operations are becoming increasingly strained for many businesses. In addition, truck driver shortages seen in 2021 have continued this year. Some UK unions have floated the idea of coordinated strike action in coming months, which could cause further disruption to supply chains. Striking truckers in South Korea have already disrupted computer supply chains this summer, while UK railway strikes have affected deliveries of construction materials.ĭock workers have been on strike in Germany and the UK, while freight hubs in Ireland are expected to clog up due to strikes at the Port of Liverpool across the Irish Sea. Industrial action ups the pressure on supply chains. The rise in the cost of living has also seen workers demand wage increases to counteract the impact of inflation on their pay packets. This could lead to disappointment this Christmas if certain products are difficult to find or more expensive to buy as tighter supply pushes up prices. Stock for the Christmas shopping period is made and shipped months in advance so current uncertainty is likely to feed into incorrect forecasts. The pandemic has already changed this picture considerably, but predicting demand has become even more difficult in 2022. This makes it difficult for supply chain planners to accurately estimate in advance the amounts and types of goods likely to be needed by consumers. Expectations that consumers will have to severely cut back on expenditure this winter has plunged demand for goods and services into uncertainty. Skyrocketing inflation has seen households hit hard by rising food costs. ![]() ![]()

In the year 2036, a strange phenomenon for which scientists can find no explanation has occurred in the skies around the world. Combine a range of skills and abilities to unleash dazzling combos on your enemies. But this is a shooter that leaves so much on the cutting room floor and feels stuck in an infinite loop of mediocrity.Bright Memory: Infinite is an epic fusion of the FPS and action genres brought to you by indie developer FYQD-Studio. If you're looking for a fairly mindless shooter to fill a few hours, you can certainly do worse than Bright Memory Infinite. The unlockable costumes in Bright Memory Infinite, which you can get through completing various difficulties or via DLC, do nothing but sexualize the main character with skimpy outfits, something especially disappointing to see. Enemy AI snags and glitches from time to time, getting stuck on walls or objects in the environment. Text pops up in Chinese, despite my language being set to English. Outside of the core shooting and a few collectibles, there's nothing much to do.ĭespite being a more "complete" version, Bright Memory Infinite still has quite a few bugs and problems too. Though Bright Memory Infinite was made by one developer, these issues are difficult to overlook. From the small number of enemies and bland boss fights to the same few music tracks that play across everything. Serious lack of variety, even in just a roughly two-hour runtimeīright Memory Infinite feels like a budget title across the board.Absolutely gorgeous, especially in terms of environment design. ![]() Bright memory Infinite Review - The Bottom Line The same can be said for the handful of uncompelling bullet-sponge boss battles and the small pool of generic enemies that exist solely as cannon fodder. The mechanics in both sections, though, don't work very well and feel tacked on for the sake of diversification alone. The bulk of Bright Memory Infinite is relegated to corridor shooting, but there are two different sections that try to mix things up: a stealth section and a driving section. While shooting does feel smooth, there's simply not enough variation to make things interesting, even in an experience that only lasts a few hours. This is especially true when you start digging into the skill system, which near exclusively upgrade your sword strikes, leaving guns by the wayside except for enhancing the effectiveness of special ammo. Things control well for the most part, but it's quickly evident that the sword attack is your best friend and, bizarrely, guns feel less and less effective as you progress. On top of the typical armory of guns at your disposal, you also have access to a devastating close-range sword attack, the ability to block incoming bullets, and a tractor beam that can pull in enemies for close-up kills. It's known for its gunplay.īright Memory Infinite plays at a blistering pace, and in some ways, it feels more like a character-driven action game than a first-person shooter. The story and its character arcs are difficult to follow at best and utterly nonsensical at worst.īut this type of game isn't exactly known for its story. But I honestly, truly have no idea what is going on here, or what anyone's motivations really are. I could try to explain the story of Bright Memory Infinite. Spanning roughly two hours from start to finish, Infinite starts with the protagonist, Shelia, waking up in her apartment as the news blares about a mysterious and unprecedented weather event. Bright Memory Infinite Review: Flash Over Substance But sadly, Infinite still feels like a demo or Early Access experience. Presumably, that release didn't do much to take Bright Memory to new heights because FYQD was focused on Infinite, a redesigned and revamped version of Bright Memory meant to feel more like a full release. And that didn't change much when it hit 1.0 in 2020, finding its way to Xbox Series X|S. The "original" Bright Memory launched in 2019 as an Early Access title and was an incredibly basic experience that spanned roughly 45 minutes, feeling more like a tech demo than a full title. ![]() ![]() ![]() There was so much potential with the DLC. Ending TBD!" If your response is anything other than, "That's it?" I would be surprised. Just when you're about to catch up to Black Bolt, it jumps to a cut scene, with Gwenpool narrating it as an "open-ended outcome. The promise of getting into a boss fight as an Infinity Gauntlet-powered Thanos is pretty appealing, but the DLC is one big fakeout. Your goal in this DLC level is to get to Thane by fighting, and finding, Black Bolt. Thane doesn't appear in the MCU, but he is well established in the comics. ![]() The story, as it were, has Thanos and the Black Order trying to track down Thanos's son, Thane. The abbreviated play time is made worse by the fact that the level isn't even story complete. Yes, you'll extend that play time by returning in free play and getting all the minikit items, but it would've been nice to have more meat to the core experience. Expect to run through it in 15 minutes or less. After all, what better than a chance to spend some quality time with Thanos and the Black Order, especially since "Avengers: Infinity War" didn't even bother to name them? Unfortunately, the Infinity War DLC offers up little more than a half-baked level that doesn't even tie in to the film.ĭubbed "Running the Gauntlet," the DLC level is shorter than most individual levels in a LEGO game.
