Summary

The Code of Hammurabi (Codex Hammurabi) is a well-preserved ancient law code, created ca. 1790 BC (middle chronology) in ancient Babylon. It was enacted by the sixth Babylonian king, Hammurabi. One nearly complete example of the Code survives today, inscribed on a seven foot, four inch tall basalt stele in the Akkadian language in the cuneiform script. One of the first written codes of law in recorded history. These laws were written on a stone tablet standing over eight feet tall (2.4 meters) that was found in 1901.

    For the sake of students, close the empathy gap between the classroom and the front office. 
     
     
     
    Far too often, teachers and administrators are adversaries within a school or district and display a mutual distrust and disrespect for each other's perspectives. Yet when this dissonance can be overcome, the result is a more-harmonious school environment that promotes student achievement. 
     
     
     
    In Lead Like a Teacher, instructional specialist Miriam Plotinsky urges secondary school administrators to lead more effectively by actively listening to teachers and welcoming their expertise. Each chapter examines one of nine key aspects of leadership and offers specific, creative solutions to the complex challenge of empowering change. 
     
     
     
    Moving from a micro to a macro focus as the book progresses—from classroom instruction to schoolwide initiatives—Plotinsky provides administrators with the tools to build and maintain collaborative leadership structures. This thoughtful approach to secondary leadership provides an actionable plan to dismantle some of the biggest barriers to achieving school excellence.

    If you have looked into publishing your book before, you are probably aware of the traditional way to publish books. You also probably have a basic idea that you can actually self-publish your own work. Although going through the traditional way will give a better chance of your book being read by people, it's usually a long process and may take about a year or even longer from the time you submitted the manuscript to the time it gets produced and published. This is the reason why more and more authors have taken the self-publishing route. But you must have a plan or a publishing strategy. Studies show that 90% of self-publishing success came from authors taking ample time to plan and strategize how they would produce and market their book. 
    This audiobook will provide you a comprehensive guide on the different ways you can self-publish your book. You will learn the viability of each option as well their advantages and disadvantages.
