Product Description

This new fix-it manual by an award-winning educator targets student disruptions and teaching inefficiencies that eat up instruction time.

Ultimate Classroom Control Handbook helps teachers solve behavior and classroom management problems on the spot, so time is spent educating rather than disciplining. Teachers learn how to deal with behavior issues so that discipline is immediate, the problems end without paperwork or conferences, and the lesson continues. Dave Foley drafted this unique book over a period of years while in the trenches teaching every day.

5-0 out of 5 stars incredible book
This book is a "magic-bullet" for educators. Every first year teacher should be encouraged to read it. I've been teaching for 12 years and I found some new techniques that I'm going to implement in my classroom

3-0 out of 5 stars Okay
I appreciate the professionalism with which this book was written.The author seems to be very knowledgeable.Perhaps I will try the techniques again next year, but by the time I purchased it, the book was vastly different than the management plan I had started with.Let's see. . .

5-0 out of 5 stars What a great resource!
After 15 years as a school librarian, I am now in a 7th grade classroom.My greatest struggle has been with classroom management, not content.This book has given me some great ideas to help with discipline issues.

3-0 out of 5 stars A few good tips I will use, but kind of flat overall
I can flag the few pages I will use in my high school classroom this year.I teach in a city and I'm not sure the ideas in this book go far enough for the environment I teach in.If you teach in a place where kids have parents who care about how they do in school, or even have parents who are involved with their lives a little bit, this could be helpful.

5-0 out of 5 stars Not Your "Average" Book on Classroom Control!
Looking at Dave Foley's picture in the back of his book, Ultimate Classroom Control Handbook,one might mistakenly think the man is the normal "veteran teacher" advertised on the book's cover.But after reading the book, no one could continue to believe that.Instead, it becomes clear that Foley is an artist, who brought his creative mind to the color wheel of his classroom every day for each of the 29 years he taught middle school.Or he's a scientist, using classroom laboratory to discover what makes kids tick, five days a week times 29.Or he may be a magician, pulling student success after student success out of the tall black hat he has carefully prepared.For those who, after reading Foley's book, still think he is a "normal veteran teacher," I have only these words:"the love line" (p. 53) and "specimen cup" (p. 195).

Foley's wonderful book of ideas is important for any public school teacher.Ultimate Classroom Control Handbook is more than a set of helpful tips on topics ranging from what to do when students lie to how to help them turn in assignments on time.It shows what a teacher who brings his imagination and deep respect for his students to work every day can do, if he is guided by the two.At its heart, this book is a story about approaching the teaching day with creativity and compassion and an anthem about what such an approach can accomplish.

Product Description

In a typical organization, there's always plenty that to do such as: pay vendors, invoice customers, answer customer inquiries, and fix bugs in hardware or software. You need to know who wants what and keep track of what is left to do.

This is where a ticketing system comes in.A ticketing system allows you to check the status of various tasks: when they were requested, who requested them and why, when they were completed, and more. RT is a high-level, open source ticketing system efficiently enabling a group of people to manage tasks, issues, and requests submitted by a community of users.

RT Essentials, co-written by one of the RT's original core developers, Jesse Vincent, starts off with a quick background lesson about ticketing systems and then shows you how to install and configure RT.This comprehensive guide explains how to perform day-to-day tasks to turn your RT server into a highly useful tracking tool.One way it does this is by examining how a company could use RT to manage its internal processes.Advanced chapters focus on developing add-on tools and utilities using Perl and Mason.There's also chapter filled with suggested uses for RT inside your organization.

No matter what kind of data your organization tracks--from sales inquiries to security incidents or anything in between--RT Essentials helps you use RT to provide order when you need it most.

5-0 out of 5 stars Worked for me
I needed to assess whether this application would work for me, and this book did great with getting me this information.

3-0 out of 5 stars Dissappointing
I was very dissappointed with RT Essentials. I had been using and administering an older version of RT for some time, but when I upgraded to the current version I thought I would benefit from reading this book. There are a lot of new features in the later versions and this book just barely mentions them. I had the feeling that it just almost told me what I wanted to know, but not quite. I would very much like to see an expanded, more detailed more comprehensive edition. I think it would take a book twice the size of the current edition to do RT right. I want complete tutorials on writing scrips, using templates, using custom fields, using saved searches, etc.

4-0 out of 5 stars Helpful, but already dated
Request Tracker (RT) is a great product. I am the only sysadmin at a small company, and having an automated tracking system is going to be an immense benefit for me. I bought "RT Essentials" to help me get up to speed on RT3 really quickly. And, since it was written by the programmer who's responsible for RT, the book had lots of detail and tips.

However, when it came down to implementing some of the code in the book, I found that it was already outdated. For example, I tried to set up the Autoreply template with Password by copying the code straight out of the book. It didn't work because the program codebase has changed too much since the book was released.

I was able to fix my template problem by hooking into the great RT user community, where the author contributes frequently.

All in all, I thought the book was really helpful for getting RT installed and getting me up to speed. For the nitty-gritty, I'd rely on the online wiki and great user community.

4-0 out of 5 stars Excellent Software, but Average Book
We've been using RT for several years.As one happy customer mentions at Best Practical's site, managing a project or service driven organization without RT is like watching TV without a TiVo.The software is powerful, flexible, and above all, adaptable to many styles of management for more than just technology projects.No question, the software gets 5 stars.

This book, however, is largely a reorganization of the information provided with the software.If you prefer to read printed materials instead of PDFs or HTML, this book will save you money on printer paper.But if you're looking for best practices, recipies, or enhancements such as those you'll find in the RT Wiki, you may be disappointed.In fact, for most of the advanced capabilities, you are referred by the book to other resources.The book does contain the occasional nugget, such as a half dozen lines of code to truly delete a ticket and related data.With some searching, you'd be able to find those, and better, at the RT Wiki, such as the particuarly valuable contributions from the University of Oslo (do an A9 search for "RT prosjektgruppen").

Compared to most O'Reilly books which set the bar for excellence, this one is merely average.However, I do recommend this book as an introduction for those considering whether it's worthwhile to move to RT from some other enterprise ticketing system, and for techs to give to managers who are more comfortable with hard copies than electronic documents. For any RT admin, it's certainly worthwhile to have documentation printed and organized in an easy reference, considering how much you've saved on the excellent software itself.

5-0 out of 5 stars QUITE THE TRACKER!!
Are you an end-user, system administrator or developer who interacts with RT on an occasional or regular basis? Authors Jesse Vincent, Robert Spier, Dave Rolsky, Darren Chamberlain and Richard Foley, have written an outstanding book that is for everybody who has to use RT to manage tasks.

Vincent, Spier, Rolsky, Chamberlain and Foley, begin by providing some background about what ticketing systems are and how they can help save your job and your sanity. Then, they walk you through the process of setting up an RT server and configuring sane system defaults. The authors continue by showing you how to get up and running with RT's web interface. In addition, they explain how to interact with RT from your shell or console window. The authors also step you through the basics of turning a virgin RT server into a useful tool for tracking what you need to do inside your organization. Then, the authors show you how to extend RT's standard behavior with custom business logic. Next, they provide a look inside the RT configuration at Yoyodyne Propulsion Systems, a nonexistent company that makes heavy use of RT to manage their internal processes. Next, the authors walk you through RT's files on disk; as well as, the details of its database tables. Then, they describe how DBIx::SearchBuilder works. Finally, they show you how to set up a local sandbox for modifying and extending RT without putting your production server in harm's way.

This excellent book will be considerably more useful to you if you have at least a basic understanding of the Unix command line. Above all, this book will be very useful to you if you also have a basic understanding of Unix systems administration skills, and at least a little bit of experience programming in Perl.

Excerpt: The Kids in the Hall is a Canadian sketch comedy group formed in 1984, consisting of comedians Dave Foley, Kevin McDonald, Bruce McCulloch, Mark McKinney, and Scott Thompson. Their eponymous television show ran from 1988 to 1994 on CBC in Canada, and 1989 to 1995 on CBS and HBO in the United States. The theme song for the show was the instrumental "Having an Average Weekend" by the Canadian band Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet. The troupe made one movie, Brain Candy, which was released in 1996. The name of the group came from Sid Caesar, who, if a joke didn't go over, or played worse than expected, would attribute it to "the kids in the hall," referring to a group of young writers hanging around the studio. Before the troupe formed, Bruce McCulloch and Mark McKinney were working together doing Theatresports in Calgary, performing in a group named "The Audience." Norm Hiscock, Gary Campbell, and Frank Van Keeken were also members of that group and later became writers on the show. At the same time, Dave Foley and Kevin McDonald were performing around Toronto (along with Luciano Casimiri) as The Kids in the Hall (KITH). In 1984, the two pairs met in Toronto, and began performing regularly as KITH, with a rotating band of members, including Paul Bellini for a short time. When Scott Thompson was invited to join in January 1985, the group had its final form. The same year, McCulloch and Foley appeared in the Anne of Green Gables series, as Diana Barry's husband and a former classmate of Anne's from Queen's...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=44538 ...

Randy was toggled between the Rochester Americans of the AHL (Buffalo Sabres' farm team) on-and-off for several seasons before getting an honest chance as a full-time player with the NHL's Pittsburgh Penguins. Randy gained a reputation for being a tough player who could hit, take a hit, and still win the game. He played several seasons as Captain for the NHL's Ottawa Senators, before returning to the Buffalo Sabres Organization, playing 17 games, 3 of which in the Stanley Cup Finals versus the Dallas Stars. During the 98-99 season he also played most of the season with the AHL's Rochester Americans where he played 2-seasons before retiring as a professional hockey player, due to a torn ACL.

Excerpt:Al Bagnoli Al Bagnoli (1952- ) is an American football head coach. He currently serves as the head coach at the University of Pennsylvania . Bagnoli played three years of varsity football at Central Connecticut State University , graduating in 1975. He went on to pursue a Master's degree at the University at Albany and worked the 1975 season there as a graduate assistant. He was promoted up to defensive coordinator after just one season and stayed in that role until moving to Division III Union College in 1978. In 1982 he became head coach for the first time at Union. His first year at Union was the program's first winning season in a dozen years and he would post a winning record every single year during his decade at the school. In 1983 and 1989, Bagnoli and Union would reach the NCAA Division III title game and he would win Coach of the Year honors twice, in 1983 and 1991. In 1992 he was hired by the University of Pennsylvania and is arguably the most successful coach in that school's history. In 18 seasons at Penn he has won 7 Ivy League titles, all of them outright, an Ivy League record. In 1993, 1994, and 2003 Penn had undefeated seasons. His overall record at Penn is 122-56 (.685). He is one of only two coaches at Penn to have 100 wins at that school. The only black mark on his record occurred in 1997 when all-Ivy defensive tackle Mitch Marrow was involved in an eligibility scandal. A four-university panel eventually determined that Marrow was not enrolled as a full-time student due to dropping several courses and should not have been considered eligible to play. As a result, Penn offered to ... ... Read more

2-0 out of 5 stars Gravely Disappointing Collection Of Essays About "Montana" Characters The Authors Attempt To Paint As "Jerks"
It saddens me that this book was not better edited and compiled.I have personally met several of the authors, and know they are more capable than the essays they have written for this book.The essays have no footnotes, relying instead upon listing their sources at the end of the essay.Moreover, the stories are not all that interesting, and one "jerk" qualifies only because her trial took place in Libby, Montana, since she killed her husband on the train while it was in northwestern Montana ("Wine, Women, and Whiz Wagons: The Life and Crimes of Vera Prosser" by Jodie Foley).

I purchased the book because the story about "Liver Eating Johnston" (the person allegedly portrayed in the film "Jeremiah Johnson") was referenced in Wikapedia.However, "In League With the Devil: Boone Helm and "Liver Eatin' Johnston" by Jon Axline was a complete farce for anyone who has read a thing about John Johnston.Indeed, as far as I am concerned, the author completely failed to justify his warrant that Johnston was a "jerk" of any sort.

At least one of the stories, "Haymarket Square: Anatomey of a Lynching" by Angie Gifford and Dave Walter, was partially--if not completely--printed in the Helena Independent Record.And that is where all of fourteen of the stories should have been published.But, I imagine that this book, and its predecessor ("Speaking Ill of the Dead"), were compiled to sell to tourist at the Montana Historical Society.(Dave, if I am stepping too hard on your toes I apologize, because I know that you mean well).

If you are just looking for a quick read about quirky/criminal people and events, you might like the book.As a sociologist who has taught about battered women syndrome as a defense, I did find it interesting that three of the essays were about women who used, or attempted to use, (spousal) physical abuse as a defense for killing.Since many people think of this as a late 1900s phenomenon, the fact that one story takes place in the late 1800s, and two occur around 1910-20, is very intriguing and shows that not everything we think is new, is really new.

If this review was not helpful to you, I would appreciate learning the reason(s) so I can improve my reviews. My goal is to provide help to potential buyers, not get into any arguments. So, if you only disagree with my opinion, could you please say so in the comments and not indicate that the review was not helpful. Thanks. ... Read more
