  1. 1. Service Oriented Design With Ruby And Rails

    SOAP, REST, and XML-RPC

    This insightful guide delves into the principles and practices of service-oriented architecture (SOA) using Ruby and Rails, offering a comprehensive approach to designing scalable and maintainable systems. It emphasizes the importance of modularity, reusability, and flexibility in software development, providing practical examples and techniques to implement service-oriented design effectively. Readers are introduced to the benefits of decoupling services, managing dependencies, and leveraging the strengths of Ruby and Rails to build robust applications that can evolve with changing business needs.

  2. 2. When The Adults Change, Everything Changes

    This book argues that improving children’s behavior and learning starts with adults changing their attitudes and actions: by adopting calm, consistent, relational approaches and clear routines, staff can prevent and de-escalate problems, restore relationships, and create a safe, predictable school culture. It offers practical strategies and real-world examples for teachers and leaders to set expectations, respond to challenging behaviour with dignity rather than punishment, and build collective responsibility so that positive change becomes sustainable.
