Interest in homeschooling has 'exploded' amid pandemic Subscribe - https://ift.tt/2BvgxbE Facebook - https://ift.tt/3hRxoWV Twitter - https://twitter.com/EducationCaree6 Pinterest - https://ift.tt/2YpDlCG Tumblr - https://ift.tt/2NmT92U Blog - https://ift.tt/2NhbzC6 #Exam #Recruitment #Result #School #College #Study #NEP #New_Education_Policy #Admission MISSION (US): As parents nationwide prepare to help their children with more distance learning, a small but quickly growing number are deciding to take matters entirely into their own hands and begin homeschooling. Some are worried their districts are unable to offer a strong virtual learning programme. For others who may have been considering homeschooling, concerns for their family's health amid the coronavirus and the on-again, off-again planning for in-person instruction are leading them to part ways with school systems. Mindy Kroesche, a freelance writer and editor from Lincoln, Nebraska, had been leaning toward homeschooling her 12-year-old son, who has autism and ADHD diagnoses that made middle school a challenge. But she always felt her 10-year-old daughter was “built for school.” Now with the pandemic raging, she is pulling them both out for the year. “We just saw that with her wearing a mask for the entire day, that would make learning more difficult for her,” she said. “It was going to be such a different environment. We didn't think it would be as beneficial for her.” Homeschooling applications are surging in states including Nebraska, where they are up 21%, and Vermont, where they are up 75%. In North Carolina, a rush of parents filing notices that they planned to homeschool overwhelmed a government website last month, leaving it temporarily unable to accept applications. There were about 2.5 million homeschool students last year in grades K-12 in the US, making up about 3% to 4% of school-age children, according to the National Home Educators Research Institute. Brian Ray, the group's president, is anticipating that their numbers will increase by at least 10%. “One day the school district says X and four days later they say Y,” Ray said. “And then the governor says another thing and then that changes what the school district can do. And parents and teachers are tired of what appear to be arbitrary and capricious decisions. They are tired of it and saying we are out of here.” Interest in homeschooling materials also has been surging, driven in part by parents who are keeping their children enrolled in schools but looking for ways to supplement distance learning. The National Home School Association received more than 3,400 requests for information on a single day last month, up from between five and 20 inquiries per day before the coronavirus. The group had to increase the size of its email inbox to keep up. “Clearly the interest we have been getting has exploded,” said J Allen Weston, the executive director of the suburban Denver-based group. “That is really the only way to describe it.” Some parents in rural parts of Nebraska are turning to homeschooling because staffing and limited access to home internet leave districts unable to offer a virtual learning option, said Kathryn Dillow, president and executive director of Nebraska Home Schools, a support and advocacy group. Homeschooling applications continue arriving in Nebraska, where the number of homeschoolers already had risen to 3,400 as of July 14, up from 2,800 at the same time a year ago, said David Jespersen, a spokesman for the Nebraska Department of Education. Jespersen said there is “a lot of confusion” and that “parents are delayed in making their decision” because so much is changing. Regardless of the final number, Jespersen doesn't expect that the increase will bust districts' budgets because homeschoolers will still remain a small fraction of about 326,000 students spread over the state's 244 school systems. Most other states don't have homeschooling numbers, either because they aren't collected at the state level or it's too early. But all indications point to increases across the country. “Now is when the reality sets in,” said John Edelson, president of Time4Learning, an online curriculum provider, which has seen business explode. “People have postponed the decision, but we are at this great inflection point. And it is hard to see what the angle is going to be, but it is definitely ..

Tutto pronto a Viareggio per l’evento storico-velico dell’anno.

A un decennio dall’ultima navigazione e dopo tre anni di restauro il ketch aurico Tirrenia II, costruito interamente in legno in Inghilterra nel 1914, tornerà a navigare.

Sabato 8 giugno 2019 questo yacht d’epoca lungo 18 metri scenderà in mare presso lo scalo del Cantiere Francesco Del Carlo, autore del refitting.

Madrina del varo sarà la lucchese Beatrice Venezi, giovane direttore di orchestra nota a livello mondiale.

In serata gala privato al Principino di Viareggio.

Sono trascorsi 105 anni da quando il cantiere inglese H.R. Stevens di Southampton ha costruito e varato Tirrenia II, splendida imbarcazione a vela realizzata in legno di teak su disegni di Frederick Shepherd, yacht designer britannico scomparso nel 1969 all’età di 100 anni autore di oltre 80 progetti in carriera, soprattutto di scafi concepiti per la crociera.

Sabato 8 giugno 2019, a partire dalle ore 17.30, presso lo scalo a mare del cantiere viareggino Del Carlo in Darsena Italia, verrà celebrato il ritorno di una delle più belle e conosciute barche di tutto il Mediterraneo.

Madrina della cerimonia sarà la lucchese Beatrice Venezi, giovane direttore di orchestra nota a livello internazionale per avere diretto importanti orchestre in tutto il mondo.

Dopo il varo, presso il Ristorante Il Principino di Viareggio, si svolgerà una serata di gala per un selezionato numero di invitati, tra i quali armatori ed equipaggi di alcuni storici motoscafi Riva in legno associati alla Riva Historical Society, che interverranno a Viareggio in occasione dell’evento per augurare ‘buon vento’ a Tirrenia II.

La barca, lunga 18,54 metri (20 metri compreso il bompresso), ha un armo velico cosiddetto a “ketch aurico”, ovvero con due alberi, quello di maestra e quello di mezzana, e vele di forma quadrangolare per una superficie velica totale di circa 180 metri quadrati.

DAL NORD EUROPA AI CARAIBI

Come tante barche d’epoca tuttora naviganti, anche Tirrenia II ha vissuto nel corso della sua esistenza numerose avventure, che non le hanno comunque impedito di continuare a navigare e di arrivare inalterata fino ai nostri giorni.

Tra i nomi avuti in passato Sapho II, con il quale è stata varata nel 1914, e Dodoni.

A partire dal 1924 ne è stato armatore il Cav. Guido Fiorentino, presidente della sede napoletana del Regio Yacht Club Italiano, che dal 1925 l’ha rinominata Tirrenia II ed associato la Coppa Tirrenia, trofeo assegnato annualmente e fino al 1939 a quell’imbarcazione che avesse compiuto la più lunga crociera in Mediterraneo.

Nel corso degli anni Settanta la barca è appartenuta a un ex militare della Marina inglese e nel decennio successivo a uno skipper professionista, il norvegese Peter Jespersen, che tra 1981 e il 1989 l’ha fatta navigare per oltre 20.000 miglia in nord Europa, Oceano Atlantico, Caraibi e Venezuela con a bordo allievi desiderosi di apprendere l’arte della navigazione a vela.

L’ARRIVO IN MEDITERRANEO

Tra il 1991 e il 1992 il nuovo armatore Gianni Loffredo, ex presidente dell’AIVE (Associazione Italiana Vele d’Epoca), ha fatto trasferire Tirrenia II su una nave cargo dai Caraibi fino a Livorno e poi via camion a Trieste, dove sotto la direzione del grande progettista Carlo Sciarrelli, che ha sempre definito Tirrenia II una “barca con l’anima”, è stata sottoposta ad un restauro integrale presso il cantiere Pitacco, Luxich e Ferluga.

In questa occasione è stato smantellato il rivestimento in fogli di rame dello scafo, che aveva contribuito a mantenere in ottimo stato di conservazione il fasciame in legno di teak, rifatto il ponte di coperta e ripristinato l’originale armo velico a ketch aurico rispetto alla velatura bermudiana con la quale aveva navigato nel periodo precedente.

Mantenuti intatti gli interni in pannelli di radica pregiata.

LA STORIA RECENTE

Dopo il nuovo varo, avvenuto a Trieste il 4 luglio 1992, Tirrenia II ha cominciato a navigare in tutto il Mediterraneo e a partecipare ai più importanti raduni di vele d’epoca.

Nel 2009 è entrata al Cantiere Del Carlo di Viareggio e lì è rimasta finchè nel 2016 una coppia di armatori lombardo-piemontesi l’ha acquistata all’asta e sottoposta ad un nuovo restauro che potesse continuare a garantire sicurezza e galleggiabilità di Tirrenia II per i successivi anni.

I lavori, che hanno riguardato principalmente lo scafo, la propulsione e l’impiantistica, sono stati eseguiti sotto la direzione del consulente fiorentino Enrico ‘Chicco’ Zaccagni, mentre per il riarmo degli alberi e della velatura è stata coinvolta la skipper Lucia Pozzo, esperta velista e circumnavigatrice già comandante di Tirrenia II nel corso dei primi anni Novanta.

Marocco, arrestato cittadino svizzero per l’uccisione di Louisa Vesterager Jespersen e Maren Ueland

L’agenzia antiterrorismo marocchina ha reso noto di aver arrestato un cittadino svizzero implicato nell’uccisione di Louisa Vesterager Jespersen, 24 anni, dalla Danimarca, e Maren Ueland, 28 anni, dalla Norvegia, trovate morte lo scorso 17 dicembre vicino al villaggio di Imlil nelle montagne dell'Atlante. L'uomo arrestato è anche sospettato di "coinvolgimento nel reclutamento di cittadini marocchini e sub-sahariani per effettuare complotti terroristici in Marocco contro obiettivi e forze di sicurezza straniere al fine di impossessarsi delle loro armi di servizio", l'Ufficio centrale per le indagini giudiziarie (BCIJ) disse. Diciannove altri uomini sono stati arrestati in relazione al caso, tra cui quattro principali sospettati che avevano giurato fedeltà allo Stato islamico in un video fatto tre giorni prima che i corpi dei turisti venissero rinvenuti. La settimana scorsa Boubker Sabik, portavoce della polizia e dell'intelligence nazionale, ha descritto i quattro uomini come "lupi solitari" e ha affermato che "il crimine non è stato coordinato con lo Stato islamico". Il Marocco, rispetto ad altri paesi del Nord Africa, è il paese meno colpito dagli attacchi dei militanti dello Stato islamico. L’ultimo attacco risale all’aprile del 2011, quando 17 persone sono state uccise nel bombardamento di un ristorante a Marrakech. Read the full article

Turiste uccise in Marocco dall'Isis, la straziante lettera dell'ex di Louisa Vesterager Jespersen: "Sono morto con te"

New Post has been published on https://calabriawebtv.com/turiste-uccise-in-marocco-dallisis-la-straziante-lettera-dellex-di-louisa-vesterager-jespersen-sono-morto-con-te/

Turiste uccise in Marocco dall'Isis, la straziante lettera dell'ex di Louisa Vesterager Jespersen: "Sono morto con te"

“Nelle ultime notti sono andato a letto sperando di svegliarmi da un brutto sogno. Mi spezza il cuore al pensiero che qualcuno ti abbia fatto del male, hai sempre visto il meglio delle persone e hai tirato fuori il meglio dalle persone intorno a te. Una parte di me è morta lunedì mattina, ma significa anche che una parte di me è con te ovunque tu sia ora”. Sono le parole di Glen Martin, ex compagno di Louisa Vesterager Jespersen, la 24enne turista danese barbaramente uccisa in Marocco inseme all’amica Maren Ueland, 28 anni, norvegese. Le due stavano per iniziare un trekking d’alta quota.

Per l’omicidio sono stati arrestati quattro presunti militanti dell’Isis. Un video diffuso ieri mostra i quattro sospettati dell’omicidio mentre giurano fedeltà allo Stato islamico e ad Abu Bakr Al Baghdadi. Secondo il primo ministro danese, Lars Loekke Rasmussen, l’omicidio può essere considerato “politicamente motivato e quindi un atto di terrorismo”. “Ci sono ancora forze oscure che vogliono combattere i nostri valori” e di fronte alle quali “non dobbiamo arrenderci”.

La lettera di Glen Martin, straziante, è stata pubblicata sulla pagina Facebook del giovane. Il messaggio non vuola lasciare spazio all’odio: “L’amore ci porterà attraverso questo, non l’odio, l’odio non ci dà altro che rabbia. Amate Louisa e il suo ricordo, amate voi stessi e amate le persone intorno a voi”.

Turiste uccise in Marocco, Isis rivendica con video

La lettera pubblica dell’ex fidanzato di Louisa

Il testo completa della lettera di Glen Martin:

“Migliaia di candele possono essere accese da una singola candela. Tu eri quella singola candela, Louisa. Sono stato molto incerto se pubblicare qualcosa qui su Facebook. Perché non appena premerò il pulsante quello che ti è accaduto diventerà reale. Nelle ultime notti, sono andato a letto sperando di svegliarmi da un brutto sogno. Ma ecco la mia lettera a te, Louisa Vesterager Jespersen.

Cara Incredibile Lulù, divertente (o almeno hai fatto del tuo meglio per esserlo), piena di energia, fascio di gioia, inclusiva, premurosa. Queste erano solo alcune delle tue qualità sorprendenti. Eri anche nota per essere distratta, lenta e goffa. Eri così curiosa e tutto ti affascinava. Non riesco nemmeno a contare quante volte siamo stati in un viaggio insieme e mi sono voltato mentre tu eri alle mie spalle perché dovevi guardare più da vicino un bel fiore, ammirare un panorama o qualcosa di cui chiunque altro non si sarebbe curato. Vedevi la bellezza in ogni dettaglio.

Louisa, sono stato così fortunato ad essere stato il tuo ragazzo per due anni. Ci siamo divisi come migliori amici con le lacrime agli occhi perché ci eravamo resi conto che non ci amavamo più. Eravamo molto dispiaciuti, ma abbiamo deciso che era così. Mi spezza il cuore al pensiero che qualcuno ti abbia fatto del male, hai sempre visto il meglio delle persone e hai tirato fuori il meglio dalle persone intorno a te. (A meno che non fossimo in piedi in un corridoio o fossimo in ritardo per qualcosa di importante). La tua vita potrà anche non essere stata lunga, ma è stata ricca di esperienze. Se volevi qualcosa, era molto difficile fermarti. Hai viaggiato in tutto il mondo e non ti sei mai fatta fermare dai pericoli. Hai fatto quello che volevi ed eri tosta.

Vivrai nel cuore di tutte le persone che hai incontrato attraverso il viaggio della tua vita. Ti porterò con me per il resto della strada e ti accompagnerò sulle montagne e lungo i fiumi che non hai mai potuto vedere. Avrai sempre un posto speciale nel mio cuore, per il resto della mia vita, spero, lunga. Per farti spazio nel mio cuore, dovevo però darti una parte del mio. Quindi una parte di me è morta lunedì mattina, ma significa anche che una parte di me è con te ovunque tu sia ora. Non importa quanto tu sia sola, sarò lì con te e tu con me. Ti auguro buona fortuna nel tuo viaggio più lontano, ovunque ti porti. Non ti dico addio, sarà una riunione tra amici.

Il tuo Gleno

Voglio finire con una richiesta a noi che restiamo. L’amore ci porterà attraverso questo, non l’odio, l’odio non ci dà altro che rabbia. Amate Louisa e il suo ricordo, amate voi stessi e amate le persone intorno a voi. Voglio che tutti quelli che leggono questo post chiamino o mandino messaggi a qualcuno vicino e dicano loro quanto sono importanti. Darei qualsiasi cosa per dire a Louisa un’ultima volta che era una bellissima persona e quanto lei valesse per me. Mi piacerebbe dunque che anche voi lasciate un commento, un video, una foto per dirglielo. Lo apprezzerei molto e sono sicuro che lo faranno anche tanti altri! “Non possiamo perdere ciò per cui siamo stati profondamente felici. Tutto ciò che amiamo profondamente diventa parte di noi”.

Black Friday: Shop it or skip it?

A solid 70 per cent of Americans plan to shop on Black Friday this year, according to a recent NerdWallet study conducted by The Harris Poll.

But the nature of a day centred around shopping can almost inevitably lead to overspending.

Here are three ways to tell whether participating in Black Friday is really right — or actually wrong — for you.

CONSIDER WHAT YOU’RE BUYING

Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, is known for long lines, big crowds and low prices.

And while the shopping holiday often does deliver unbeatable deals on things like electronics, certain items are cheaper at other times of the year.

Clothing is generally a bargain on Black Friday, but some clothing reaches its lowest price off-season, according to Charlie Graham, founder and CEO of Shop It to Me, a sale alert app.

“If you’re really penny-pinching, you can find better deals when items go on clearance outside of Black Friday and Cyber Monday,” Graham says of some apparel.

Think buying swimsuits at the end of winter or sweaters in the middle of summer.

TIP: Consider the items you want this Black Friday and write them down. Then, check Black Friday ads to see if those products will be on sale. Retailers usually release their ads ahead of time — online, by email or in the mail. If you don’t see what you want at the price you want, think about waiting to buy.

CONSIDER WHY YOU’RE BUYING

Of those who plan to shop in stores this Black Friday, 42 per cent said they plan to do so because they enjoy the in-store hype (e.g., doorbuster deals, camping outside of stores the night before), according to the NerdWallet study.

Enjoying this annual tradition is one thing, but going shopping “just because” isn’t always a good idea. Even if you’ve set a budget before putting on your comfiest sneakers and standing in the cold, you may be susceptible to making additional purchases once you’re among the merchandise.

On Black Friday, retailers compete for a share of your wallet, says Jeff Inman, a marketing professor at the University of Pittsburgh and editor-in-chief of the Journal of Consumer Research.

Traditionally, retailers draw in Black Friday shoppers with a few great deals — called “loss leaders” — and hope they’ll buy additional items as well. Imagine going for a TV and leaving with clothing and Christmas decorations, too.

While Inman says he hasn’t always seen shoppers with huge baskets on Black Friday, he does point to toys as one category where shoppers may spring for something even if they didn’t see it in a Black Friday ad.

For example, while in the store, you may come across a toy and decide to buy it for your niece for Christmas. This isn’t necessarily an impulse purchase; you already planned to buy a gift for your niece. But since you didn’t know the exact item you wanted to buy, he calls selecting this toy an “impulse allocation” of your holiday shopping budget.

This isn’t a problem if you can afford it, but be conscious of this possibility when you step foot in the store.

TIP: Think about why you want to shop on Black Friday, and whether you’re financially prepared. If you’re not sure you can resist the temptation to overshoot your budget, consider skipping.

CONSIDER WHEN YOU’RE BUYING

Finally, plan your timing. With deals launching earlier each year, some Black Friday sales really happen the whole week of Thanksgiving, according to Graham from Shop It to Me.

“To compete with each other, the retailers have been pushing their sales earlier and earlier during that week,” Graham says.

Because of this, sometimes shoppers can get Black Friday-level prices before Black Friday.

TIP: Although this might not be true for every product category, monitor sales in the days leading up to Black Friday for an early shot at a good deal.

TO STAY OR TO GO?

Once you decide the what, why and when of your Black Friday shopping, you’ll be able to decide whether you should join the crowds or stay on the couch.

2018 WNBA Draft: The Prospects Whom Statistics Favor

(Photo by G Fiume/Maryland Terrapins/Getty Images) A'Ja Wilson is considered the clear top choice in Thursday's WNBA draft. But was she the most productive prospect in college in 2017-18? (Photo by G Fiume/Maryland Terrapins/Getty Images) Sports fans are accustomed to finding just about any stat on just about any male athlete they like. Imagine you wish to know something fairly obscure, like who led the Southern Utah University men's basketball teams in steals in 2017-18. With a bit of effort — but not with any money — you can learn it was Dre Marin (one of my students last semester). You can repeat the same exercise at ESPN.com for any Division I men's basketball team. You can also easily find player statistics for any athlete in college football, Major League Baseball, the NBA, the NFL or the NHL. When it comes to men's sports, statistics are easy to find and usually free. But when we turn to women's sports, the search — as Sue Bird noted two years ago — is more difficult. ESPN does report some stats from women's college basketball, but complete stats for individual players and teams are not available. The NCAA reports complete statistics, but the site is not particularly easy to navigate. Her Hoop Stats is a great resource, but not entirely free. In sum, statistics that are easy and free to find are far more prevalent in men's sports than in women's sports. Still, if you dig hard enough, you can find data for women's basketball, and once you have data, you can do something you often see in men's sports: analyze the statistical productivity of every prospect for a draft. As with the NBA, websites (like High Post Hoops and Draft Site) have created complete mock drafts for the 2018 WNBA draft, set to be held Thursday night. Each of these mock drafts does a great job of detailing how the prospects are perceived by decision makers in the WNBA. What is lacking, though, is a complete statistical analysis of these players' performance in college. One might think that how the decision makers rank the players would be consistent with each's statistical productivity. In other words, one might think players perceived to be the best were also the most productive in college. However, Jill Harris and I published academic research that tells a different story. We found that draft position in the WNBA was primarily about scoring points, appearing in the Final Four and playing in a top conference. When it came to predicting WNBA performance, though, we found that Final Four appearances and conference choice were not important. And although scoring mattered, shooting efficiently from the field was even more important. In addition, where a player was drafted was a very poor predictor of how well a player performed on a per-minute basis in the WNBA. Consequently, it might be useful to spend a bit of time moving past how people are perceiving the performance of these prospects and actually look at their productivity their last year of college. There has been quite a bit of academic research noting that scoring totals dominate perceptions of performance in both women's and men's basketball. But a player's point production often doesn't tell us much about a player's contribution to wins. Wins in basketball are primarily about three factors. Teams win because they are able to: Take the ball away from the other team without that team scoring (i.e., grab defensive rebounds and force turnovers). Keep the ball from their opponent (i.e., avoid turnovers and grab offensive rebounds). Put the ball in the basket by getting to the free-throw line and efficiently hitting their shots from the field. Given all this, what matters in evaluating basketball players is primarily their ability to efficiently hit their shots (measured with true shooting percentage), rebound, grab steals and avoid turnovers. The other statistics do impact how one calculates a player's production of wins, but the most important statistics we want to examine in evaluating a player are those that have the biggest impact on a team's ability to win the game. When we take this approach, the ranking of the WNBA prospects looks a bit different from the aforementioned mock drafts, which are primarily about perceptions of performance. That being said, the following list doesn't tell us everything about player productivity. Specifically, it reports only one specific snapshot of a player's performance: what that player did during the 2017-18 season. How that player performed in past seasons is not considered. In addition, the list does not consider quality of competition or how college performance might translate into WNBA production. In sum, this list is not a complete picture of a player's future prospects. The list, though, does provide some basic statistics about each player: points per game (PTS), true shooting percentage (TS%), rebounds per game (REB), steals per game (STL) and turnovers per game (TOV). In addition, a summary measure — specifically, Wins Produced per 40 minutes (WP40) — is included to capture a player's impact on wins in college. The players are ranked by WP40. But the average ranking of the aforementioned mock drafts is also noted. When WP40 says a player is more productive than the general perception (as indicated by the mock draft ranking), it might lead one to ask if maybe people have underestimated that player's talent. Likewise, if WP40 is relatively low for a player, then maybe that player is not quite a good as people believe. Rank Player College POS Mock Rank PTS TS% REB STL TOV WP40 1 Gabby Williams UConn F 6 11.2 62.4% 7.4 2.4 2.4 0.390 2 Azura Stevens UConn C 3 14.7 64.3% 7.4 0.8 1.3 0.347 3 Stephanie Mavunga Ohio St. PF 12 16.6 65.2% 11.0 1.1 1.7 0.346 4 Ariel Atkins Texas SG 12 14.9 63.7% 5.5 2.5 2.0 0.342 5 A'Ja Wilson South Carolina C 1 22.6 59.5% 11.8 1.0 2.5 0.318 6 Vionise Pierre-Louis Oklahoma C 21 15.9 65.2% 8.7 0.9 2.9 0.291 7 Jordin Canada UCLA PG 5 17.0 54.1% 3.7 3.3 2.6 0.288 8 Natalie Butler George Mason C 29 19.2 57.6% 16.6 1.1 3.5 0.267 9 AJ Alix Florida St. PG 31 11.4 56.7% 2.7 1.4 2.8 0.265 10 Marie Gülich Oregon St. C 12 17.5 67.4% 9.1 0.6 2.6 0.257 11 Myisha Hines-Allen Louisville F 17 14.0 54.5% 9.6 1.3 1.9 0.252 12 Morgan William Mississippi St. PG 24 8.2 53.7% 1.6 0.8 1.2 0.248 13 Kaylee Jensen Oklahoma St. C 21 18.5 59.7% 10.7 1.0 1.8 0.244 14 Jill Barta Gonzaga PF 21 18.8 60.4% 8.3 1.8 2.3 0.242 15 Taeler Deer Texas St. G 26 17.3 50.7% 4.5 2.2 3.0 0.241 16 Lexie Brown Duke PG 7 19.4 58.5% 4.4 3.7 3.1 0.232 17 Loryn Goodwin Oklahoma St. PG 20 20.6 49.7% 6.7 3.5 2.6 0.225 18 Kia Nurse UConn PG 8 13.5 67.2% 3.5 1.3 1.3 0.216 19 Brooke McCarty Texas PG 25 13.6 53.5% 4.5 1.5 1.8 0.214 20 Victoria Vivians Mississippi St. SG 9 19.8 57.6% 6.1 1.4 1.6 0.212 21 Mercedes Russell Tennessee C 10 15.3 60.8% 9.2 1.2 1.5 0.211 22 Teana Muldrow West Virginia SF 19 18.9 58.3% 8.6 1.5 2.3 0.210 23 Camille Zimmerman Columbia G-F 36 19.5 53.1% 10.2 1.0 3.7 0.199 24 Kelsey Mitchell Ohio St. G 2 24.3 58.9% 3.2 1.5 2.2 0.193 25 Jackie Kemph Saint Louis PG 37 15.6 54.6% 2.9 0.8 3.0 0.190 26 Rebecca Greenwell Duke G-F 33 13.9 58.9% 6.4 1.8 1.9 0.177 27 Monique Billings UCLA PF 10 15.3 52.9% 9.5 1.1 2.2 0.170 28 Diamond Deshields Tennessee SG 4 17.4 51.4% 6.4 1.4 3.6 0.164 29 Jaime Nared Tennessee PF 15 16.7 50.4% 7.4 2.2 1.9 0.164 30 Maria Jespersen South Fla.

An average college player has a 49.3% true shooting percentage and a WP40 of 0.100. So virtually all of these players are above-average scorers and above average with respect to producing wins. That being said, some players do appear better than others. For example, five players — Gabby Williams, Azura Stevens, Stephanie Mavunga, Ariel Atkins and A'Ja Wilson — were three times as productive as an average college player. Although Wilson is considered the better draft prospect, perhaps both Williams and Stevens could be as productive in the WNBA. Why are these five players so productive? Relative to the positions they played, all five in 2017-18 were good at getting the ball to go in the basket and also generally good at grabbing rebounds. Again, these two factors have a big impact on a team's ability to win games. After these five, 17 players were twice as productive as an average college player in 2017-18. That list includes first-round prospects like Lexie Brown, Kia Nurse, Jordin Canada and Victoria Vivians. But it also includes players expected to be taken in the third round like Taeler Deer and Brooke McCarty. It should be emphasized again that college performance does not perfectly predict WNBA performance. But it does predict better than actual draft position. So perhaps decision-makers should take a second look at Deer and McCarty. As we move toward the bottom of the list, we see names like Kelsey Mitchell, Monique Billings and Diamond Deshields. These three were good college players, but they were not quite as productive as some other names on the list. Maybe one should think a bit about why the production of these players lagged behind some other players'. A player's statistics should not be thought of as the ending point for player analysis. A better view is to think of statistics as a starting point. Once you know the productivity of the player, you can start asking why that player is productive (or not). Perhaps what the player did in college will not translate into the WNBA, so the statistics overvalue the player's potential contribution. Perhaps what the player did poorly can be fixed; in that case, the statistics undervalue the player's contribution. In any case, player statistics should make a person think objectively about how a player might contribute to wins. Of course, one can't think objectively about the statistics when those numbers are not presented in a forum that is both easy and free to access. Hopefully we will see more and more statistics for the women's game that are easily accessible to everyone. UPDATE: The calculation of Jordin Canada's WP40 was originally incorrect. The corrected number appears above. For fans of Canada, yes, she was very productive last year at UCLA! Read the full article
