Read the Label FIRST Wiped out your lawn along with the weeds figuring that, if some lawn treatment was good, more would be better? Made a second trip to the store because the product you bought the first time turned out not to be right for the job? Made a dash for fresh air after mixing two cleaning products? Sprayed your tomatoes for bugs, only to find that the spray you used wasn't supposed to be used on vegetables? If you've ever "been there, done that," you already know that reading the label first can save you time, trouble, and money. This is why EPA, the specialty pesticide industry, environmental groups, and state and local governments started the Consumer Labeling Initiative to make labels easier to read and understand. However, no label can do its job if no one pays attention to it. The key message that EPA and its partners in the CLI want to get across now is to "Read the Label FIRST!

Teaching in action / 4.1 Some general issues The run of Teaching in action cards covers lecturing, teaching in groups and seminars and teaching electronically. The teaching opportunities that will be open to you will depend upon departmental policy and the number of students you must teach. But whether your principal teaching contact is with large numbers of students in lecture rooms, with small groups in seminars or 'at a distance' using networked computers, remember that actively helping your students to learn is your priority. So for all such contacts, you need to call to mind the 5 Ps: Purpose Performance Your teaching event will most likely be part of a series of such events; in which case your purpose and planning will need to begin by encompassing the whole series of events which will fall out of the syllabus you expect to cover. Embed the individual event in that wider context; each event will be part of a chain, indeed a cycle that begins, continues and concludes. Each link in the chain will itself follow the cycle.

Lecturing / 4.2.6 Activities Lecturing, even to a large audience, need not be one-way communication or broadcasting. Plan to include some appropriate activities to stimulate learning and to provide a change of pace and focus. Audience involvement You can pose a question or problem and give the audience a couple of minutes to think about an answer as individuals before you continue. You may wish to take one or two suggested answers from the audience as a platform on which to develop your argument. But even if you don't, the audience will have had time to think about and own the issue. Ask adjacent pairs to consider the question/problem together, either as a step following individual consideration or as a first step. If you wish to stimulate further discussion, invite the pair to turn to a pair behind them and compare their answers. If you have encouraged this degree of audience involvement, then you must expect to draw on their deliberations by inviting responses, albeit from a sample if the audience is a large one. If you wish to pose a range of different questions or problems to the audience at the same time, you can allocate each row a question or problem or ask each half row to turn round to the half row behind. How you arrange the discussion will of course depend on the layout of the room and ease of interaction. You can then draw on the answers to continue.

It typically includes a description of the activities that provide the context for learning. A case study report may be organized in whatever way seems most appropriate to the study, but often includes the following elements: Your own inquiry: What you did to learn more about the content or processes that learners were investigating, and what you learned about these. Unit goals: How you or others wanted learners to develop as a consequence of their engagement with some activities, for example, to be able to use a communication technology effectively to learn how the first parliamentary system arose to learn how the English language evolved to learn about the adaptation of animals to their environments, to learn that each person has a unique set of fingerprints and that this uniqueness makes it possible to find missing people or track down criminals, to be able to articulate their theories about why some things float and others sink, and to propose ways to test those theories

Extractions: Nature of the Industry About this section Back to Top Education is an important part of life. The amount and type of education that individuals receive are a major influence on both the types of jobs they are able to hold and their earnings. Lifelong learning is important in acquiring new knowledge and upgrading ones skills, particularly in this age of rapid technological and economic changes. The educational services industry includes a variety of institutions that offer academic education, vocational or career and technical instruction, and other education and training to millions of students each year. Because school attendance is compulsory until at least age 16 in all 50 States and the District of Columbia, elementary, middle, and secondary schools are the most numerous of all educational establishments. Elementary, middle, and secondary schools provide academic instruction to students in kindergarten through grade 12, in public schools, parochial schools, boarding and other private schools, and military academies. Some secondary schools offer a mixture of academic and career and technical instruction.
