The Multimedia option, which grants an M.A. degree in Instructional Technology and Media, consists of a core of courses that provide a foundation in instructional design and in the use of appropriate tools for the design of multimedia and Internet instruction. Courses in this concentration have a strong emphasis on project work. The objective is to equip graduates to analyze and synthesize educational multimedia, based on both practical knowledge and a sound theoretical framework. The program is of potential relevance to school administrators, technology coordinators, and classroom teachers, as well as to those in the media publishing and software design sectors.

Extractions: Improving School-to-Work Transition for All Students ISSUE: Too many students leave high school without the occupational and academic skills to succeed in the workplace or in postsecondary education. School-to-work transition initiatives offer a promising approach to this issue and require major school restructuring. OVERVIEW: A report by the Commission on the Skills of the American Workforce, America's Choice: High Skills or Low Wages! (1990), states that "America may have the worst school-to-work transition system of any advanced industrial country." (p. 4) The curriculum of the typical American high school is geared toward preparing students for four-year colleges and universities. Lynn Peters, director of Business-Education Partnerships for the Fox Cities Chamber of Commerce and Industry, discusses how high schools in Wisconsin often direct most of their efforts toward the 25 percent of kids who graduate from college.

Extractions: Back To School T he Maine Humanities Council's programs for teachers are based on an unconventional premise: teachers are intellectuals. They are people who read deeply, who enjoy talking about what they have read, who take ideas seriously, who question what they are told. This is a radically different model from what prevails in many American schools. Teachers as test coaches, teachers as babysitters, teachers as therapists - these are typical expectations of educators' roles. If there is time left in the frenetic school day for creative and intellectually exciting teaching, fine, but it's not what schools are really expected to do. An industrial model of schooling - uniform practices, rigid hierarchies, precisely measurable learning outcomes - still prevails throughout much of the country. Happily for Maine, many of its school districts have escaped this strait jacket. Innovative curricula, stimulating teachers, new technology initiatives abound. Yet, given the lack of funding within the system for sustained, high-quality professional development opportunities, many teachers in Maine find they are so overwhelmed by day-to-day tasks, they risk losing their own sense of intellectual excitement. Some leave the profession as a result.

Extractions: before the due date PHOTODISC Years ago, high school seniors applying to college had to haul out the typewriter and stock up on Wite-Out to complete the forms each school required. Now virtually every institution accepts some type of electronic application, prompting a growing number of students to handle the process online. And the schools are doing a better job at their end, making the digital docs easier to work with and otherwise catching up with the technology. "The whole system improves dramatically year by year," says Scott White, a guidance counselor at Montclair High School in New Jersey. But while online apps can be less tedious than the paper versions, not to mention perfectly in synch with the technical sensibilities of today's teens, students need to complete them with the same amount of care and consideration, several college admissions officials and counselors say. "An online application gets the same scrutiny, and if it appears hurried and has errors, that will work against you," says Andrew Flagel, Dean of Admissions at George Mason University in Fairfax, Va.

Extractions: eye - On your back to school Let eye's student guide help you make it through your salad days by the seat of your underpants We've all seen Flashdance and Angel ; the notion of girls and women stripping their way to or through school is not a new one, the inroads well traveled. With every strip club, porn website and escort agency holding promises of apple-cheeked college kids, academically and otherwise-minded female sex workers have had to cope with a lot of scrutiny. But what about the men in this industry? Who will be their Diana Atkinson? And for that matter, how does an average male university student for argument's sake, let's make him straight take advantage of the business that has provided many a girl a clean financial slate after they're done their degree and takeout sushi while they're studying? What's out there for you breeder boys? One reason straight men have traditionally had a hard time approaching the sex trade as providers is that they have always been the principal consumers, giving them a selfish, pleasure-oriented perception of the business. Rest assured, gentlemen, even if you do get regular work stripping for, screwing or jerking off on women, chances are you will not be turned on by the vast majority of your clientele. It's not called sex work for nothing.
