Mike Gatehouse,June Statham,Harriet Ward: The Knowledge: How to get the information you need out of computers and information systems : A practical guide for children's social services


Description
Information systems in current use in children s social services, whether computer- or paper-based, are generally designed more for recording information than for retrieving and using it. Yet if staff understand more about how to use the information capital at their fingertips, they can be empowered to improve the quality of outcomes for the children and families they serve. With local authorities currently planning changes to their information systems to support the new Integrated Children s System, this timely guide shows how new systems can be commissioned to provide outputs that benefit staff at all levels. Based on research commissioned by the Department for Education and Skills and the Welsh Assembly Government, the guide includes sections which specifically address the needs of different groups of professionals. The clear and practical advice will enable staff in social service departments to identify their information needs, commission better systems to meet them, and improve and make explicit the ways in which they use the information thus provided.

In his bestselling work of popular science, Sir Roger Penrose takes us on a fascinating tour through the basic principles of physics, cosmology, mathematics, and philosophy to show that human thinking can never be emulated by a machine. Oxford Landmark Science books are 'must-read' classics of modern science writing which have crystallized big ideas, and shaped the way we The Knowledge: How to get the information you need out of computers and information systems : A practical guide for children's social services free ebook think. The clear, direct way of emphasizing the course s relevance and confronting students math anxieties is at the heart of the bestselling The Basic Practice of Statistics (BPS). It is also the ideal approach for taking full advantage of the powerful statistical tools and interactive learning features in this new edition s text/media package. Now more than ever, BPS is ready to help students move from reading about statistical practice to practicing statistics themselves. What's in the LaunchPad"
