Mark GrahamPublished 3 years ago in EducationThe Darker Side of “Little Red Riding Hood”
Wrapped up in a classic fairytale, Little Red Riding Hood is the ultimate stranger danger story. But stranger danger wasn’t the original objective behind the tale.
Sandi ParsonsPublished 3 years ago in EducationHow to Apply the Use of Data Analytics In Retail Industry
Data analytics in retail sector is very important for small scale retail shops, who often need help from customized platforms, who also give the support of big data technologies that are available these days. Besides this, there are other organizations, mostly start-up ones, who provide retail data analytics to make the sense of new products in social media as well. In fact, data is of great importance for retail traders, as it gives them a clear idea of their customers. But sometimes too much data is just the wrong thing to put all that data in one place. This is where predictive analytics tools come into play.
Yash SharmaPublished 3 years ago in EducationReview of Unfair Advantage by Robert Kiyosaki
Before I begin my review, (which I am not good at), I want to make a few points. First, please read my other stories on financial education and read others when you get a chance. That will help me, other others and this site. Secondly, this is not an endorsement or anything even though I do feel it should be read. You can buy it directly or just read it at the library or bookstore. While Robert Kiyosaki is a good author and has a lot of knowledge, I have read from many reviews that he simply repeats himself. This book and Rich Dad, Poor Dad are the only ones I have read, and I have another one I plan to read later.

The works of Daphne du Maurier capture more than the mind of the reader; they cast a spell on the very soul of those who read just one of her entrancing stories. She is able to carefully omit information to create mind-blowing conclusions that are so skillfully harmonized. Her novels and stories were written over several decades when women were not expected to be at the forefront of a story, yet her collection of short stories profoundly tend to focus on a female lead. Du Maurier’s short stories “Indiscretion”, “Kiss Me Again, Stranger”, “La Sainte-Vierge”, “Spilt Second”, and “The Blue Lenses”, though different in context, share a common theme. From cheating to murder, ghastly encounters to the in-between, and all forms of hallucinations alike, deception and delusion dominate du Maurier’s works collected in her book Don’t Look Now.

sanjuofficial07Published 3 years ago in EducationWhere dreams of courage start...
“There’s a Sea in my Bedroom”, written by Margaret Wild and illustrated by Jane Tanner, is one of the most magical, endearing books a young child could ever read! It is one of those books which literally jumps out from the page, bringing joy and a sense of calm and hope.
Alice Who Are YOU?
What makes a good bedtime story? Something that involves people, places and possibly situations that we would not normally encounter. To encourage children to envision things beyond their own experiences. To spark imagination.
Wild About Food
When I read this challenge, Bedtime Stories, I knew I was all in for this one. As you can see my photo cover is one of my favorite children books. Where The Wild Things Are, by Maurice Sendak has inspired a movie, an opera, song, and the imagination of generations. I just realized that this book was written the year I was born. No wonder I love it so much. This book has won the highest award a children's author can receive called, Caldecott Medal. I will come back to this most popular book of all times after I share a little about my other two top favorite children's books.

Manoj UpadhyayPublished 3 years ago in EducationThe Crane
Although I already lived in the other world children inhabit as a child, reading was my favorite place to escape. Fairytales, lands far away, fables, myths were my favorites. The versions of stories told as they made their way from country to country fascinated me. One that has always stayed in my memory is this; a Japanese folk tale beginning with those well-worn words:
